This paper proposes a real-time energy management strategy for HEVs considering battery health. By predicting battery health status and SOC values and integrating energy optimization and online equivalent consumption minimization strategy, the proposed strategy aims to save energy and improve handling adaptiveness. Simulation and experimental tests have validated its superiority in terms of energy economy and maneuverability.
The energy conservation remains the key issue for the hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) today. However, most existing energy management strategies (EMS) only focus on the fuel consumption or battery preservation, and little considers the battery health. Besides, the global energy optimality and real-time execution are two trade-off counterparts for the EMS application. To this end, this paper proposed a real time EMS of the HEVs considering the battery health. Explicitly, the battery health status and SOC values are predicted with the space vector machine algorithm and adaptive Kalman filter algorithm, respectively. Then, the offline energy optimization is realized with the Pontryagin's minimum principle; thereby, the offline energy conversion coefficient can be further extracted into the simple rules. On this basis, the online equivalent consumption minimization strategy (ECMS) is adopted to output the optimal control variables including the motor torque, engine torque, clutch states and gear information. Besides, to apply the proposed EMS in the practical vehicles, the energy conversion coefficients are further modified according to the estimated battery state of the charge (SOC). The simulation and experimental tests have validated the superiority of the proposed EMS in terms of energy economy and maneuverability. Explicitly, the proposed EMS considering the battery degradation has effectively prevented the SOC trajectory into charge-sustaining stage earlier and meanwhile the fuel utilization is improved by 4.1 % than that without considering the battery degradation. Besides, compared with the existing ECMS method, the proposed EMS can reduce the fuel consumption by about 8-14 % and meanwhile enhance the handling adaptiveness by about 15-20 %. In general, the proposed EMS is of significance to the vehicular energy conservation and the real-time executability for the HEVs.
