Abstract

Recently researchers are focus on evaluation of hydraulic regenerative braking systems for improving fuel economy and reducing pollutant emissions. Present work is oriented to study effects of variation in vehicle speed at braking, accumulator initial pressure and pump displacement on regeneration efficiency of hydraulic regenerative braking system (HRBS) on the school van conveyance in Vadodara city. The results show that the HRBS regeneration efficiency improves between 1.7 to 10% with reduction in initial pressure from 110 to 90bar. Increase in pump displacement from 16 LPM to 23 LPM results in rise in regeneration efficiency of the HRBS between2.6 to 16.7%. While increasing initial speed at braking from 20 to 35 KMPH, regeneration efficiency of the HRBS system rises by 48%. This is the maximum rise in regeneration efficiency while varying the initial braking speed.
