Energy control strategy is a key technology of hybrid electric vehicle, and its control effect directly affects the overall performance of the vehicle. The current control strategy has some shortcomings such as poor adaptability and poor real-time performance. Therefore, a transient energy control strategy based on terminal neural network is proposed. Firstly, based on the definition of instantaneous control strategy, the equivalent fuel consumption of power battery was calculated, and the objective function of the minimum instantaneous equivalent fuel consumption control strategy was established. Then, for solving the time-varying nonlinear equations used to control the torque output, a terminal recursive neural network calculation method using BARRIER functions is designed. The convergence characteristic is analyzed according to the activation function graph, and then the stability of the model is analyzed and the time efficiency of the error converging to zero is deduced. Using ADVISOR software, the hybrid power system model is simulated under two typical operating conditions. Simulation results show that the hybrid electric vehicle using the proposed instantaneous energy control strategy can not only ensure fuel economy but also shorten the control reaction time and effectively improve the real-time performance.

Improvements in hybrid electric vehicle fuel economy with reduced emissions strongly depend on their supervisory control strategy. In order to develop an efficient real-time supervisory control strategy for a series hybrid electric bus, the proposed equivalent fuel consumption optimal control strategy is compared with two popular strategies, thermostat and power follower, using backward simulations in ADVISOR. For given driving cycles, global optimal solutions were also obtained using dynamic programming to provide an optimization target for comparison purposes. Comparison simulations showed that the thermostat control strategy optimizes the operation of the internal combustion engine and the power follower control strategy minimizes the battery charging and discharging operations which, hence, reduces battery power loss and extends the battery life. The equivalent fuel consumption optimal control strategy proposed in this paper provides an overall system optimization between the internal combustion engine and battery efficiencies, leading to the best fuel economy.

For a great influence on the fuel economy and exhaust, driving cycle recognition is becoming more and more widely used in hybrid electric vehicles. The purpose of this study is to develop a method to identify the type of driving cycle in real time with better accuracy and apply the driving cycle recognition to minimize the fuel consumption with dynamic equivalent fuel consumption minimization strategy. The support vector machine optimized by the particle swarm algorithm is created for building driving cycle recognition model. Furthermore,the influence of the two parameters of window width and window moving velocity on the accuracy is also analyzed in online application. A case study of driving cycle in a medium-sized city is introduced based on collecting four typical driving cycle data in real vehicle test. A series of characteristic parameters are defined and principal component analysis is used for data processing. Finally, the driving cycle recognition model is used for equivalent fuel consumption minimization strategy with a parallel hybrid electric vehicle. Simulation results show that the fuel economy can improve by 9.914% based on optimized support vector machine, and the fluctuations of battery state of charge are more stable so that system efficiency and batter life are substantially improved.

It is of great importance to manage the energy split of plug-in hybrid electric vehicle during the driving process.In this paper, principle of energy control in plug-in hybrid electric vehicle was first presented. And then, two energy control strategies, including fuel control strategy and engine efficiency control strategy, were analyzed, respectively. Finally, comparision simulation experiments were carried on electric vehicle platform ADVISOR software. Simulation results show that, using fuel control strategy can get a better economy performance but worse engine efficiency; while using engine efficiency control strategy can get a better engine efficiency but higher fuel consumption.

Establish simulation models of the conventional and parallel hybrid electric back-loading compression sanitation vehicle by AVL CRUISE and MATLAB/Simulink software. Study on control strategy of parallel hybrid electric vehicle based on the work characteristics of back-loading compression sanitation. Results show that: about 24.5% fuel consumption reduction in hybrid modeling compared to the conventional sanitation vehicle under heavy commercial vehicle standard test cycle (C-WTVC, Adapted World Transient Vehicle Cycle), and battery SOC was little changed at 50%. About 32% fuel consumption reduction in hybrid compared to the conventional vehicle under the actual road testing spectrum, and SOC increased about 21.6% relative to the initial state. It controls the engine to work in more stable operation region and reduces engine idle time, but increases engine start-stop times. It also could provide some references for specific engine development of parallel hybrid electric vehicle

In this paper we present a novel adaptation method for the Adaptive Equivalent fuel Consumption Minimization Strategy (A-ECMS). The approach is based on Driving Pattern Recognition (DPR). The Equivalent (fuel) Consumption Minimization Strategy (ECMS) method provides real-time suboptimal energy management decisions by minimizing the "equivalent" fuel consumption of a hybrid-electric vehicle. The equivalent fuel consumption is a combination of the actual fuel consumption and electrical energy use, and an equivalence factor is used to convert electrical power used into an equivalent chemical fuel quantity. In this research, a driving pattern recognition method is used to obtain better estimation of the equivalence factor under different driving conditions. A time window of past driving conditions is analyzed periodically and recognized as one of the Representative Driving Patterns (RDPs). Periodically updating the control parameter according to the driving conditions yields more precise estimation of the equivalent fuel consumption cost, thus providing better fuel economy. Besides minimizing the instantaneous equivalent fuel consumption, the battery State of Charge (SOC) management is also maintained by using a PI controller to keep the SOC around a nominal value. The primary improvement of the proposed A-ECMS over other algorithms with similar objectives is that it does not require the knowledge of future driving cycles and has a low computational burden. Results obtained in this research show that the driving conditions can be successfully recognized and good performance can be achieved in various driving conditions while sustaining battery SOC within desired limits.
