Multiple-Objective Optimal Control of Hybrid Electric Vehicle

Abstract:

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.
