The feasibility and superiority of super-capacitors on mild hybrid electric vehicle

Super-capacitor has the merits of high efficiency and long lifecycle, which could lead to the mitigating of burthen and prolonging of the lifecycle for batteries in mild hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). This paper proposed the parameters matching for the HEV using the ability of starting engine and motor synchronization. From the results of lifecycle cost and results of fuel economy simulation, the feasibility and the superiority of this application could be validated.
