Design and Performance Simulation of a Power-Integrated Transmission Mechanism

Article Preview

Abstract:

The power system structure of a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) critically affects the performance of the vehicle. This study presents a power-integrated transmission mechanism that can provide six basic operating modes that can be further classified into 15 sub-modes. Switching clutch conditions helps transmission achieve speed and torque coupling. The proposed mechanism has CVT capability and an extended range capacity, and it is applicable to front-wheel-drive, rear-wheel-drive, or four-wheel-drive HEVs. A performance simulation on power and economy via Matlab and Cruise software demonstrates that the performance of the proposed transmission mechanism meets the target. Therefore, the mechanism is a feasible candidate for use in HEVs.
