| Summary: | With increasing concern over the environment and ever stringent emissions regulations, the electric vehicle has been investigated as an alternative form of transportation. However, the electric vehicle suffers from relatively short range and long charging times and consequently has not become an acceptable solution to the automotive consumer. The addition of an internal combustion engine to extend the range of the electric vehicle is one method of exploiting the high efficiency and lack of emissions of the electric vehicle while retaining the range and convenient refuelling times of a conventional gasoline powered vehicle. The term that describes this type of vehicle is a hybrid electric vehicle. Many configurations of hybrid electric vehicles have been designed and implemented, namely the series, parallel and power-split configurations. This paper discusses the modelling and simulation of split plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Modelling methods such as
physics-based Resistive Companion Form technique and Bond Graph method are presented with powertrain component
and system modelling examples. The modelling and simulation capability of existing tools such as ADvanced VehIcle
SimulatOR (ADVISOR) is demonstrated through application examples. Since power electronics is indispensable in hybrid
vehicles, the issue of numerical oscillations in dynamic simulations involving power electronics is briefly addressed. |
