Title
Drive cycle analysis of the performance of hybrid electric vehicles
This paper presents a drive cycle analysis of hybrid electric vehicle power train configurations. Based on fuel economy and emissions factors, a tradeoff between conventional, series hybrid, parallel hybrid, and a parallel-series hybrid is drawn. The operational characteristics of conventional and hybrid electric vehicles are evaluated from the standpoint of fuel economy and emissions. First, models are formed for conventional, series hybrid, parallel hybrid, and series-parallel hybrid vehicles. Then, the models are simulated for fuel consumption, powertrain average efficiency, and emissions using drive cycles containing target speeds in predefined patterns. The simulation results signify that hybrid electric vehicles achieve lower fuel consumption and emissions. Finally, the powertrain configurations that are suitable for city and highway driving are determined.
