Abstract

Power train of hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) equipped with automated mechanical transmission (AMT) is made up of engine, electric motor, batteries and propulsion system. Shift schedule can't be worked out with the same way of conventional AMT vehicle. Based on the optimal torque distribution strategy and analysis of the driving efficiency for parallel hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), a new economy shift schedule for PHEVs equipped with AMT is proposed to maximize the driving efficiency. The MATLAB/CRUISE co-simulation results show that the proposed shift schedule can more efficiently improve the fuel economy performance.
