Abstract | Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles have been identified as an effective technology to displace petroleum by drawing significant off-board energy from the electrical grid. A plub-in vehicle is expected to operate in an electric-only or a charge-depleting mode over a large SOC window (60-80% of total operational SOC) for maximum petroleum displacement. The all electric range (AER) test quantifies the electric-only miles possible with the battery for a particular configuration and vehicle class. This paper describes the hardware-in-the-loop testing of a 41-Ah Li-ion battery designed for PHEV applications. Vehicle AER, temperature rise and battery performance in the charge-sustaining (CS) mode at low SOCs (35 to 20%) were evaluated. These tests indicate that CS operation at low SOC for an urban driving cycle has no effect on fuel economy. Thus, the lower limit set for SOC is a "life" decision, not a "performance" decision. |
