Abstract
In this study, the design methodology for PHEV component design environment is proposed, which consists of power evaluation, component evaluation, component analysis and vehicle performance evaluation environments. First, PHEV simulators were developed based on the dynamic model of the target PHEV powertrain, and a PHEV control algorithm was designed based on the general power-split type PHEV using MATLAB/Simulink. Experimental results were used to validate the constructed PHEV simulators. The power evaluation environment provides the magnitude and direction of the power between components at the vehicle level at any selected time that the user wants to evaluate. The component evaluation environment is designed to evaluate the parameter behaviors of a component using the effort-flow causality relationship. The component analysis environment is designed to investigate component performance according to the variations of component parameters. The vehicle evaluation environment is designed to evaluate equivalent fuel economy at any selected time. It is expected that the design methodology of the PHEV component design environment proposed in this study can be extended to other x-EVs for evaluating and designing vehicle components.
