Abstract
This paper proposes an optimization of torque strategy of All Wheel Drive hybrid vehicle taking part to Le Mans Hypercar championship. Using the software VI-Grade CarRealTime an existing reference model has been considered, and new co-simulated model with CarRealTime and Simulink with custom torque distribution has been defined. Subsequently, a simpler vehicle model has been developed only in Simulink to speed up the optimization problem, while conserving the same torque strategy of the co-simulated model. Regarding the optimization problem, two analysis are proposed. The first one is based on single-objective optimization that reduces the fuel consumption, by optimizing the use of the electric powertrain along the track; the second one is a multi-objective optimization that minimizes the fuel consumption and variation of State of Charge (SoC) using the same decision variable of single-objective optimization. The same penalty function is adopted in both cases to have a final SoC equal to the initial one. This analysis allow to design the size of battery and fuel tank as low as possible.
