ELECTRIC HYBRID VEHICLE SIMULATION

The simulation of electric hybrid vehicles was performed to determine the most efficient configuration obtainable with near term components. Experimental data was used to model propulsion system components. Experimental data was used to model propulsion system components whenever possible. The performance of an existing ac propulsion system was used as a baseline for comparative purposes. Hybrid components which were included in the evaluation were electrically and mechanically driven flywheels, and an elastomeric regenerative braking system.
