Abstract

A hybrid power system, which is comprised of Ultracapacitors, power battery pack and DC/DC converter, is researched to meet the dual requirements of high-energy density and high-power density for the applications in plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). The working principles are analyzed and its reasonable topology is determined based on comparisons. A logical threshold control is built and its thresholds are optimized. An HIL platform is built which is based on the xPC Target real-time simulation and uses the hybrid power system as the in-loop hardware. The simulation results show the idea of the hybrid power system and its control method is feasible.
