3. Why Hybrid Vehicles?
Solution:
Improve the existing power system efficiency, alternate
fuels, new materials or alternate power systems like hybrid
vehicles
Environmental Concerns:
• Increasing greenhouse emissions
• Global warming,
Practical Concerns:
• Increasing automobiles
• Declining oil reserves
4. Introduction
Hybrid Vehicles:
A hybrid vehicle is a vehicle that is propelled by two or more
distinct types of power sources, such as-
Diesel – Electric
Nuclear – Electric
Gasoline – Electric
The basic principle with hybrid vehicles is that the motor work
better at different speeds and more efficient for producing
torque, or turning power.
The combustion engine is better for high speed.
6. Classification Of Hybrid Vehicles
A. Based on Architecture:
1) Series Hybrid Vehicle
2) Parallel Hybrid Vehicle
3) Series-Parallel Hybrid Vehicle
B. Based on Degree of Hybridization:
1) Micro Hybrid Vehicle
2) Mild Hybrid Vehicle
3) Full Hybrid Vehicle
4) Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle
8. Parallel Hybrid Vehicle
Uses multiple propulsion energy sources
This means the electric motor and ICE propels the vehicle
9. Series-Parallel Hybrid Vehicles
These vehicles can operate using the electric motor alone
or with assist of the ICE
They combine both functions of series and parallel design
10. EVs 101

11. HV Advantages Over Conventional Engines
Regenerative Braking
Reduction in engine and vehicle weight
Fuel efficiency is increased
Emissions are decreased
Cut emissions of global warming pollutants by 1/3 or 1/2
Reduce the dependency on fossil fuels
2 times more efficient than conventional engines
The electric motor is far more efficient (70%-85%
efficiency) than the heat engine.
EV’s can use regenerative stopping (regain 30% of energy
used, theoretically).
12. Energy Management System
EMS is basically a control algorithm which determines how the power is
produced in a power train and distributed as a function of vehicle
parameters.
The presence of the electric power train is intended to achieve either
better fuel economy or better performance than a conventional vehicle .
Switching from one to the other at the proper time while speeding up
yields greater fuel efficiency.
The main functions of EMS would be:
• Optimize energy flow for better efficiency
• Predict available energy and driving range
• Propose a suitable battery charging algorithm
• Use regenerative braking to charge the batteries
• Suggest more efficient driving behavior
• Report any malfunctions and corrects them
15. Conclusions:
With the ever more stringent constraints on energy resources and
environmental concerns, HVs will attract more interest from the
automotive industry and the consumer.
The main issue of HV is how to optimize the multiple energy
sources to obtain best fuel economy or low emission at lower
cost.
Energy Management is the prime key technology in HVs, hence
the control theory of HVs should be further Advanced.
A fair and credible evaluation system of energy management
strategies is helpful to design a suitable energy management
strategy for specific HV with particular performance objectives.
The tradeoff between computation complexity and optimization
performance of energy management strategy remains an open
issue.
