Power Management and Control of HEV using Model Predictive Control

In this date to improve the fuel economy and get less emission, Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) is developed. Energy management system has been developed where we can exploit the operating points of both the electrical system and the internal combustion engine. Typical power-split HEV model is built in this paper. To improve the tracking of the desired speed set points, Model Predictive control is used when subjected to the input and output constraints. The combination of both the series and parallel architecture is used in power split HEV to get different modes of operation. The combination and split of mechanical power generation is done with the use of planetary gear set. So near optimal fuel and energy management is done for the different modes of operation of the HEV with the implementation of Model Predictive Control.
