Abstract
The basic configuration and operation modes of the series extended-range electric vehicle were analyzed and a new method of engine choice and fuel economy evaluation was proposed. A co-simulation platform is set up with Cruise and Matlab/Simulink to evaluate the rule-based engine on-off and optimal operation line control strategies. The simulation results with typical driving cycles illustrate that: firstly, the engine on-off control strategy makes engine and generator operate on their best efficiency points, and its fuel economy is better than optimal operation line control strategy; secondly, when the optimal operation line control strategy is adopted in Extended-Range Mode, the engine downsizing will be beneficial and the extended-range electric vehicle (E-REV) will achieve a better fuel economy and control effect.
