The performance of lithium-ion batteries will inevitably degrade during the high frequently charging/discharging load applied in electric vehicles. For hybrid electric vehicles, battery aging not only declines the performance and reliability of the battery itself, but it also affects the whole energy efficiency of the vehicle since the engine has to participate more. Therefore, the energy management strategy is required to be adjusted during the entire lifespan of lithium-ion batteries to maintain the optimality of energy economy. In this study, tests of the battery performances under thirteen different aging stages are involved and a parameters-varying battery model that represents the battery degradation is established. The influences of battery aging on energy consumption of a given plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) are analyzed quantitatively. The results indicate that the variations of capacity and internal resistance are the main factors while the polarization and open circuit voltage (OCV) have a minor effect on the energy consumption. Based on the above efforts, the optimal energy management strategy is proposed for optimizing the energy efficiency concerning both the fresh and aging batteries in PHEV. The presented strategy is evaluated by a simulation study with different driving cycles, illustrating that it can balance out some of the harmful effects that battery aging can have on energy efficiency. The energy consumption is reduced by up to 2.24% compared with that under the optimal strategy without considering the battery aging.

Under the severe challenge of increasingly stringent emission regulations and constantly improving fuel economy requirements, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) have attracted widespread attention in the auto industry as a practicable technical route of green vehicles. To address the considerations on energy consumption and emission performance simultaneously, a novel control algorithm design is proposed for the energy management system (EMS) of HEVs. First, energy consumption of the investigated P3 HEV powertrain is determined based on bench test data. Second, crucial performance indicators of NOx and particle emissions, prior to a catalytic converter, are also measured and processed as a prerequisite. A comprehensive objective function is established on the grounds of the Equivalent Consumption Minimization Strategy (ECMS) and corresponding simulation models are constructed in MATLAB/SIMULINK. Subsequently, the control algorithm is validated against the simulation results predicated on the Worldwide-Harmonized Light-Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP).Integrated research contents include: (1) The searching process aimed at the optimal solution of the pre-established multi-parameter objective function is thoroughly investigated; (2) the impacts of weighting coefficients pertaining to two exhaust pollutants upon the specific configurations of the proposed control algorithm are discussed in detail; and (3) the comparison analysis of the simulation results obtained from ECMS and classical Dynamic Programming (DP), respectively, is performed.
