To reduce the fuel consumption and exhaust (HC, CO) emissions of parallel hybrid electric vehicle, the control strategy of the hybrid electric vehicle is studied in this paper. First it briefly analyzes the structure and working principle of the parallel hybrid electric vehicle drive system. Then a cost function is proposed which explains the fuel consumption and emissions. According to the minimum principle the minimum of the cost function can be got, consequently, the optimal control strategy can be obtained. Furthermore, in order to verify the effectiveness of the optimal control strategy, in MATLAB environment, it establishes a dynamic simulation model for hybrid electric vehicles. Through a comparative study between the optimal control strategy on and the traditional rules control strategy, the results of experiment it reveals that the optimal control strategy can effectively reduces fuel consumption and emissions of hybrid electric vehicles.

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.

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

Developing an efficient online predictive modeling system (PMS) is a major issue in the field of electrified vehicles as it can help reduce fuel consumption, greenhouse gasses (GHG) emission, but also the aging of power-train components, such as the battery. For this manuscript, a model predictive control (MPC) has been considered as PMS. This control design has been defined as an optimization problem that uses the projected system behaviors over a finite prediction horizon to determine the optimal control solution for the current time instant. In this manuscript, the MPC controller intents to diminish simultaneously the battery aging and the equivalent fuel consumption. The main contribution of this manuscript is to evaluate numerically the impacts of the vehicle battery model on the MPC optimal control solution when the plug hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is in the battery charge sustaining mode. Results show that the higher fidelity model improves the capability of accurately predicting the battery aging.
