Abstract

Electric vehicles boom in the market started after the improvement in the battery technology but the improvement needs to be enhanced further. An Electric Vehicle has zero greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional ICE vehicles or Hybrid Electric Vehicles and hence is a better alternative. An Electric Vehicle has a longer charging time which is a drawback. Hence using Ultracapacitor for fast charging purposes can be coupled with a battery to overcome the drawback. Therefore, improving the transient power capabilities of the battery to satisfy the road load demand is critical. This research studies integration of Ultra-Capacitor (UC) to Battery. The objective is to analyze the effect of integrating UCs on the transient response of the BEV powertrain. UCs have higher power density which can overcome the slow dynamics of batteries. An energy management strategy utilizing a peak power-sharing strategy is implemented. The goal is to decrease the power load on batteries and operate Ultracapacitor in its most efficient region. A complete model to simulate the physical behavior of UC-Integrated BEV is developed using MATLAB/SIMULINK. This increases the life of the battery since its protected from overcurrent. which increases the health of the battery based on the number of charge/discharge cycles.
