Abstract:
Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) in the transportation sector is spearheading the industry towards embracing green technology to ensure the sustainability of the environment. HEVs offer significant reduction of exhaust emissions while retaining vehicle performance achieved via a revolutionary energy management strategy (EMS) which reforms the management of power flow from the dual energy sources of a HEV. However, researchers are faced with challenges to extract the maximum performance out of HEVs due to the contradicting nature between its main objectives, namely vehicle performance, fuel consumption and cost. In this study, an investigation focusing on the fuel-saving potential of a power-split type HEV using a fuzzy logic-based EMS is conducted. The purpose of this research is to explore methods to improve fuel efficiency of a HEV through a smart and adaptive EMS. The power flow in the proposed model is decided based on its current vehicle speed and the global discharge rate value derived from the real-time battery state-of-charge and remaining trip distance. From simulations over standard drive cycles, the proposed controller is able to outperform a rule-based EMS by an improvement of up to 65.4% in terms of fuel consumption which subsequently reduces the volume of pollutants released to the atmosphere.
