Hierarchical Control of Combined Hybrid Electric Vehicle

Development of a novel strategy for energy flow optimization in a combined hybrid electric vehicle structure is described in this paper. There has been online energy management implementation using this method in this kind of hybrid system by a hierarchical hybrid controller between dual sources. Two energy sources are included in such a structure - the stack of fuel cells and the battery. Its power train system is based on a parallel combination of an internal combustion engine and electric motor. A supervisory controller is involved in the proposed control method, in which all possible operation modes are captured in the first layer. For each the defined modes, an advanced fuzzy hybrid controller has been developed in the second layer. There are local controllers for subsystem set point regulation in the third layer of controller to reach acceptable operation and best performance indices. More research toward an actual application is confirmed to be feasible and encouraged through simulation results.
