The application of the battery pack model is illustrated by studying a design example in the electrified vehicle area. In this section, the battery pack model is the key part of the powertrain of a series hybrid electric vehicle. A unique (for passenger duty) vehicle is studied in the Autonomic simulation environment [20], Then, several Energy Storage System (ESS) options, which are combinations of...

Finally, Fig. 4.8 shows the simulation results for a hybrid fuel cell-electric vehicle with 20 kW of fuel cells and a 5-kWh, 113 kg Li ion battery. The two power sources are operating in series, and particularly during the high-... 

Hybrid thermal vehicles are more expensive than traditional vehicles, because they include more than one energy source on board. However, there are some components of traditional vehicles which are not required for hybrid vehicles and can be made some savings. For instance, in the series conhguration there is no need for the gear box because the electric drive regulates the motor speed electronically, transmission is simplihed and differential is useless if the motors are directly connected to the wheels. The starter can be eliminated in both series and parallel conhguration since electric machines do not need any specihc devices to start. Many hybrid vehicles are currently on the market and this sector is growing rapidly worldwide. 

Transit buses operate on predictable routes, allowing for optimization of RESS and PMS to match the range and duty cycle. However, the continuous operation and stop-start duty cycle of urban transit buses impose stricter reliability, availability, maintainability, and durability requirements than for light duty vehicles. The DOF s NREL, in partnership with ETA, has conducted over the past decade a series of evaluations of advanced hybrid electric drive bus fleets, documenting the continuing improvements in RESS capabilities and performance for succeeding generations of vehicles [15].
