In mountainous regions, micro hybridization by a 48V-belt generator or mild parallel hybridisation by a large high voltage electric drive can result in considerable fuel consumption savings as well as additional benefits for heavy load utility vehicles. Additional electric power and battery size are still critical design parameters as well as critical cost factors considering the limited space and depreciation time as well as the need for maximum payload. Based on vehicle model simulations, this contribution quantifies fuel consumption savings, recuperation energy harvesting and battery requirements for different truck sizes with test cycles based on realistic route topography. The main route topography parameter for the recuperation benefit is the effective incline that integrates all downhill sections that overcompensates the vehicle resistance by tire friction and air resistance. The simulation parameter studies lead to an analytical benefit estimation, based on load cycle parameters like effective velocity, effective incline as well as the vehicle parameters mass, drag coefficient and cross sectional area. Thus, the return on investment can be assessed by an analytic rule of thumb, based on tracked cycles of existing vehicles.展开更多

The advance vehicles focus on family passenger cars and include battery electric vehicles （BEVs）, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles （PHEVs）, and hybrid electric vehicles （HEVs）. The GREET （greenhouse gases, regulated emissions, and energy use in transportation） model is adopted with regional circumstances modifications, especially the UF （utility factors） of PHEVs. The results show that the electrified vehicles offer great benefits concerning energy consumption, greenhouse gas （GHG） emissions as well as urban Particulate Matter 2,5 （PMz.s） emissions. Compared to conventional gasoline vehicles, the life-cycle total energy reduction for advance vehicles is 51% to 57%. There is little difference on energy reduction among the HEVs, PHEVs and BEVs, with the energy mix shifting from petroleum to coal for the stronger electrification. The reductions of GHG emissions are 57% for HEV, 54% to 48% for PHEVs with 10 miles to 40 miles CD range, and 40% for BEV. The life-cycle and local PM2.5 emissions are discussed separately. The life-cycle PM2.5 emissions increase with vehicle electrification and reach a maximum for the BEV which are 5% higher than the conventional vehicle （CV）. However, electric vehicles can shift PM2.5 emissions from vehicle operation to upstream operations and help mitigate PM2.5 emissions in urban areas. The local emissions of PHEVs and BEVs can be reduced by 37% to 81% and 100% compared with CVs.展开更多
