`PREFACE
`
`This Special Publication, Technology for Electric and Hybrid Vehicles (SP-1331),
`collection of papers from the “Electric Vehicle Technology” and “Engines and Fuel
`Technology for Hybrid Vehicles” sessions of the 1998 SAE international Congress
`and Exposition.
`
`is a
`
`Hybrid vehicles are now a reality in Japan, and they could soon be coming to the
`United States. The heart of the Toyota Prius hybrid vehicle is its fuel—efficient engine
`and unique transmission, coupled with a limited-range battery. The hybrid vehicle’s
`advantage is its ability to run the engine at its "sweet spot" to minimize emissions of
`criteria pollutants or minimize energy consumption and 002 production, depending
`on the control strategy. The key technical measure of success for a hybrid vehicle is
`a well designed engine—-electrical-battery system that is matched to the load demand.
`
`The papers from the "Engines and Fuel Technology for Hybrid Vehicles" session
`focus on leading-edge engine design, engine management, and fuel strategies for low
`emission, high mileage hybrid cars and commercial vehicles.
`
`The papers from the “Electric Vehicle Technology” session focus on hybrid vehicle
`control technology, energy storage, and management for hybrid vehicles and
`simulation development.

`
`As shown in Figure 2, the target drivetrain torque T
`
`is calculated as a function of the torque set point and
`
`the vehicle speed in block1 (Bi). The upper and lower
`
`limits of the equivalent gear ratio Rh and RI are
`
`calculated as a function of the vehicle speed in B2.
`The equivalent gear ratio R, fuel mass F, and air
`
`mass A are simultaneously calculated as a function of
`
`the target torque T,
`
`taking the limit Rh and RI
`
`in
`
`consideration in B3. Some control strategies such as
`
`the dynamic compensation described in section 3.7
`are executed in B4. Fuel mass F is delivered with an
`
`electronically controlled fuel
`
`injector as
`
`shown
`
`elsewhere [10]. Fuel
`
`is
`
`injected directly into the
`
`cylinders. Therefore, the system is free from transient
`
`fuel compensation which is commonly in port injection
`systems [8]. The air mass A is controlled with an
`
`electronically controlled throttle valve and air bypass

`EGR was 40 %. The maximum pressure ratio of the
`
`superchager was 2. The air mass A was controlled by
`
`opening and closing of the throttle valve or the bypass
`
`valve in Figure 3. The relevant gear ratios from 1st-
`
`5th for a stepped transmission were 3.5, 2.0, 1.3, 1.0
`
`and 0.73, respectively. Fuel mass F was controlled
`
`with electronically controlled fuel

`3.3 Lean burn control by supercharging
`
`Figures 5 (a),
`
`(b) and (c) show the simulation
`
`results with high supercharging and lean burn. When
`
`the target torque is more than T1 = 50 Nm, the power
`source switched from the electric machine to the
`
`engine. When the air mass ratio A/AO becomes more

`, the supercharge starts, the air mass ratio
`
`A/AO is finally doubled.
`
`In Figure 5(a), at T=50 Nm,

`In Figure
`

`
`the

`supercharger starts at T: 78 Nm. The air-fuel ratio
`
`A/F is increased temporally from 20 to 40. When the
`
`torque becomes T3,
`
`the air mass A is
`
`decreased by decreasing the air-fuel ratio from 20 to

`15. When the target torque becomes T2, the air mass
`
`is decreased slightly to decrease the air-fuel
`
`ratio
`
`from 20 to 15 by controlling the throttle valve. When

`
`3.6 Air-fuel ratio control
`
`As mentioned before, the fuel mass is controlled
`
`by the air mass which is generally measured by the
`
`flow meter. During switching from the electric
`
`machine to the engine,
`
`the air mass increases
`
`stepwise against the target torque T to maintain the
`
`When the capacity of the compressor, the surge tank
`
`and the intercooier in the intake system [17] is larger
`
`in Figure 3, the air mass going through the air flow
`
`meter increases temporarily to fill the surge tank and
`
`intercooier
`
`during
`
`throttle
`
`opening
`
`and
`
`the
`
`compressor
`
`starting. The
`
`air mass must
`
`be
`
`compensated also according to the response lag of
`
`the airflow meter and the filling lag of the EGR.
`
`The filling spike must be compensated to reduce
`
`fluctuation of the air-fuel ratio which is apt to increase
`
`exhaust emissions. This compensation is attained by
`
`using the aerodynamic model of the intake system
`
`[13]. The air mass into the cylinder is calculated by
`
`using the intake manifold filling dynamics and the
`
`compressor dynamics. Then, the model of the intake
`
`system to predict future air mass is applied. Some
`
`simulation results, obtained by the method mentioned
`
`above, are shown in Figure 10 which has samples of
`
`the traces for
`air mass flow rate Wa, Wc, Wb, Wh,
`and We and the pressure pi
`(105
`Pa) at
`the
`intercooler when the compressor is started during 0-
`
`0.2 s and the bypass valve is closed during 0.3-0.4 s.
`
`Wa is the measuring value by the airflow meter. The

`
`3.7 Control strategies
`
`(1) Dymamic compensation
`
`Good acceleration performance will require some
`
`modification for the strategy mentioned in section 3.6.
`
`The output torque is reduced during the change in
`
`gear ratio and the power source (engine, electric
`
`minimal
`
`friction braking. This dynamic interaction
`
`between the vehicle's brake and drivetrain systems
`
`also improves driveability.
`
`(5) Power assist with electric machine
`The electric machine is connected between the
`
`engine and transmission or between the transmission
`and the wheel. In the former, the electric machine can

`machine) because part of the engine torque is used to
`
`assist synchronization of the gear sets during the shift

`accelerate the engine itself. The power is controlled

`operation in
`
`the synchromesh transmission. The
`
`by compensating the fuel mass and air mass through
`
`operating force becomes unnecessary, and the
`
`dynamic models, resulting in smooth switching and
`reduced drivetrain vibration.
`
`friction
`
`cones
`
`for
`
`synchronism are
`
`eliminated.

`In

`The torque of

`the engine is controlled during
`
`the latter,
`
`the electric machine can assist power
`
`acceleration by monitoring differences between
`
`supply to the wheel during the shift operation in the
`
`engine and wheel speeds in order to provide a

`transmission,
