Abstract

In modern world society there is a tendency to decrease natural resources consumption. This leads to switch-over from the internal combustion engine vehicles to the electric vehicles. However, the electric drive system of the latter is not perfect as well, particularly due to high impedance of the independent power supply. So the efficiency of this system can be improved with the connection of supercapacitors in-parallel to the accumulator. This research, provided with the help of a computer model of the elec-tric drive, was made to analyze the effectiveness of utilizing supercapacitors in electric vehicles with independent power supply by testing the computer model on steady-state working modes as well as on the urban driving cycle. The obtained numeric result has shown the increasing of the electric drive efficiency caused by the including a supercapacitor to the drive power supply.
