Abstract

This study presents a design method for an energy management scheme of a series-hybrid powertrain. Different drive line topologies are briefly introduced, and their advantages and disadvantages discussed. Furthermore, an systematic energetic macroscopic representation (EMR) is used to introduce an example of a fuel cell (FC) series-hybrid electric vehicle (SHEV) drive line, and its energy management in more detail. As a result, the study illustrates a design space of the powertrain, which can be derived based on the proposed energy management and dimensioning rules. Besides, feasibility of an EMR for the design, as well as the documentation of an energy management scheme is described.
