Optimal Torque Distribution Strategy of Hybrid Electric Bus Based on Genetic Algorithms

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the Hybrid Electric Bus (HEB) equipped with Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) engine is taken as the research object on the basis of logic threshold control strategy and the Genetic Algorithm (GA) is adopted to optimize the HEB control thresholds at a typical operating condition of a Chinese city bus. The simulation results show that the overall efficiency of GA optimize is higher than the original control thresholds, the engine operating point moves to the high efficiency region which can be considered optimal threshold by GA makes the overall efficiency has been effectively improved, so as to achieve without lowering the vehicle dynamics and SOC balance of the premise, the gas consumption decreased and increased HEV economy.
