Hybrid electric vehicles : modelling and energy management

The aim of this course is to present electric and hybrid vehicles. Modeling, sizing and energy management of hybrid vehicles and their components are studied. Twelve hours will be spent for practical works to develop and simulate vehicle models. These sessions mainly deal with the developement of a model of electric vehicle, the modelling and the energy management of Toyota Prius, and the energy management of serial hybrid vehicles.

The teachers in charge of this session are researchers of IFSTTAR working on Electric and Hybrid Vehicles.

1. Hybrid electric vehicle : generalities, definitions, classification and cybernetic modelling.
2. The batteries for electric and hybrid vehicles : introduction, modelling, uses, sizing, security and ageing.
3. Engines and electrical machines : presentation, different types of electrical machines and their controls, different types of engines, anti-pollution norms, application for electric and conventional vehicles.
4. The energy management for hybrid vehicles : definition, optimization, application in the case of Toyota Prius, sizing of the systems, notion of environmental impact.
5. Application : 12h of practical works
