Abstract
In recent years, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) have increased significantly due to climate change and the demand for high-efficiency power sources. HEVs that combine an internal combustion engine (ICE) and an electric motor (EM) can improve the power output of the ICE and overcome the challenges of the insufficient battery life of electric vehicles. In this study, a parallel HEV with a power distribution mechanism is developed for energy saving and carbon reduction. The driver′s power demands are used as input sources, and a rule-based control strategy is used to determine the power distribution of the generator, EM, and ICE. The NEDC2000 driving cycle is used as the test benchmark to demonstrate the performance of the HEV. In comparison to ICE vehicles, the fuel efficiency of HEVs significantly improved. In addition, other parameters, including the average brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC), brake-specific carbon monoxide emission (BSCO), and brake-specific hydrocarbons (BSHCs), were lower, which can effectively save fossil fuel and reduce air pollution.
