In this paper, vibro-acoustic characteristics of a power-split hybrid transmission including a compound planetary gear set are investigated by numerical procedure and refined system dynamics modelling. For validation of the numerical predictions, bench tests are performed for dynamic and acoustic responses of the hybrid transmission, contribution rates of acoustic radiation power induced due to the planetary gears, support bearings, transmission shafts and the gearbox housing are estimated. In improving the noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) performance of the transmission during hybrid vehicle acceleration, traction torques of the motors against the planetary gear parametric resonance are formulated and an optimal control strategy is proposed. By real road NVH test results acquired on board of the midsize hybrid car, it is demonstrated that a significant reduction of the planetary gear whine noise is achieved. As a result, numerical approaches applied to establish relationships between torques of the two traction motors and parametric excitations of the compound planetary gear train are experimentally validated.

For the problem that power circulation and low efficiency easily occur in closed Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), the input-coupled CVT drive system was taken as the object of study, the fundamental structure and working principle of the input-coupled CVT drive system were briefly introduced. In the circumstances of no energy loss, the sufficient condition for the input-coupled CVT drive system to realize power split was deduced in detail. Next, the meshing efficiency expression for the 2K-H type differential gear train was simplified under the sufficient condition. The condition for maximizing the meshing efficiency of the 2K-H type differential gear train was demonstrated. Finally, the conclusion was verified by example. The results show that the condition of maximum meshing efficiency ensures the highest meshing efficiency of the 2K-H type differential gear train from the design point of view.

In order to solve the dynamic vibration characteristics of the power-split transmission system, the system of the dynamic mechanical model is established. Firstly, according to the theoretical analysis method of the tooth contact analysis (TCA) and loaded tooth contact analysis (LTCA), the actual meshing process of each gear pair is simulated, and the time-varying mesh stiffness excitation is obtained, which can improve the numerical precision. Next, by using the lumped mass method, the bending-torsional coupling three-dimensional dynamical model of the power-split transmission is established. The identical dimensionless equations are deduced by eliminating the effect of rigid displacement and the method of dimensional normalization. Next, the frequency domain and time domain responses of this system are obtained. The dynamic load change characteristics of each gear pair are analyzed. The results show that establishment, solution, and analysis of the system dynamics model could provide a basis for the dynamic design and have an important significance for the dynamic efficiency analysis and dynamic performance optimization design of the power-split transmission. Through theoretical data compared with the experimental data, we verified the correctness of the method proposed.

A new methodology for constructing multi-axes nomographs is developed. Using this methodology, a unified general formulation for computing velocities and torques of any epicyclic-type transmission train is presented. To demonstrate and apply the new technique, Ravigneaux automatic transmission is used to show how the velocities, the torques and the power flow through the train can be simultaneously visualized on a single nomograph. The present methodology is judged to be more efficient than other methods and than the three-ax nomograph methodology. Using this methodology an innovative design of two-input transmission with only one electric motor/generator (MG) and without any rotating clutches is presented. The proposed design provides some of the benefits and flexibility of a power-split design by using the conventionally available Ravigneaux gear train in a simpler mechanical layout which makes the design compact, mechanically simple, and operationally flexible.

Experimental research is essential in the development of a hybrid electric vehicle. In this study, a bench test was conducted for a compound power-split hybrid electric vehicle (PSHEV) to analyze the real dynamic characteristics of its components and the factors of system shock and vibration during the engine start-up process. Firstly, the mode switching process with an engine start-up was divided into four stages by the lever method. The basic control strategy of mode switching with engine start-up was formulated and tested on a bench test platform. Secondly, based on the bench test data, the output characteristics of the battery motor, engine, and driveshaft were analyzed in detail. The main variable parameters of the engine control unit were investigated in the engine start-up process. Ultimately, the results showed that the engine’s pulsating torque was the main reason for system jerk and vibration during the engine start-up process, and the excessive intake manifold pressure before the engine’s ignition was one of the main reasons for the large output torque ripple. When initiating the electric engine starting process, the jerk and vibration presented a wide fluctuation. The maximum value of the equivalent jerk was 92.12 m/s3, and the maximum value of the absolute value of the vibration acceleration was 4.077 m/s2.

A Planetary Gear Train (PGT) can be used in series-parallel transmission to redistribute powers. Selectable one-way clutches (SOWCs), compared with traditional friction clutches, can simplify controls and diversify patterns especially for hybrid transmissions. In this paper, a nonlinear torsional model of a power-split PGT coupled with three SOWCs is proposed. Piecewise nonlinearities of SOWCs as well as clearance, time-varying mesh stiffness, and synthetic transmission error of the PGT are considered. With a specified group of comprehensive evaluation indices, influences of piecewise nonlinearities of SOWCs are explored. Simulation results show that the piecewise nonlinearities of SOWCs can diminish collision range and reduce resonances of the PGT. Further research studies on parameter configurations of each SOWC reveal that of the three SOWCs, stiffness and radius of the SOWC connected to the sun gear of the PGT are dominant factors. Large stiffness and effective radius of the SOWC render the PGT fall into chaos on lower meshing frequencies; however, enormous impact vibrations occur to the SOWC if it gets too soft. Additionally, the increase of the damping ratio of the SOWC connected to sun gear can distinctly reduce the vibration and maximum dynamic load of the system on the entire working range.

Six kinds of torque-splitting and speed-converging metal V-belt IVPST were raised; their global speed ratio and torque ratio of metal V-belt CVT output to metal V-belt IVPST output were derived. Two different torque-splitting and speed-converging metal V-belt IVPSTs were sum up: series and parallel metal V-belt IVPSTs. In series metal V-belt IVPST, speed ratio changing rate and torque ratio were related to gear ratio of planetary gear train and fixed gear transmission, but in parallel metal V-belt IVPST, that were only related to gear ratio of planetary gear train.
