Hybrid electric vehicle powertrain design: Construction of topologies and initial design schemes
This paper introduces the generic representation and construction methods for the architectures of the four-wheel-drive hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) powertrain, which achieve the unified rules to represent and construct all types of HEV powertrains. To map the architecture into numerical variables and add it into optimization, the kinematic matrix of the HEV powertrain is extracted corresponding to the topological structure. Based on the torque distribution requirement of four-wheel-drive HEV, the initial design schemes (architecture and parameters) are created by charge-under-go feasibility inspection.
A simple method for the design of hybrid electric power-split cvts: A case study
A brief parametric method for the preliminary design of hybrid electric Power-Split CVTs is performed. The desired torque-speed characteristic is obtained, and general control and optimization criteria are introduced in order to minimize the size of the required electric machines. The optimization is performed by mean of scheme-independent functional parameters, while a specific constructive design is proposed only later, along with possible full electric operations.
