The invention discloses a series power generation control method for an extended-range light
commercial vehicle, and the method comprises the steps: 1, obtaining the driving information of the vehicle through a
CAN bus, and the driving information comprises the driving speed, driving force, driving acceleration and the like of the vehicle; estimating the
mass of the vehicle by using a recursive least square method with a
forgetting factor; 2, grading the estimated vehicles according to
mass ranges, wherein the vehicles are divided into low loads, medium loads, high loads and the like; 3, selecting different power generation
modes according to the identified quality grade, the current vehicle speed and the SOC of the battery; 4 series power generation
modes are mainly divided into a fixed-point low gear, a fixed-point middle gear, a fixed-point high gear and a power following mode, the power generation power of an engine does not depend on the power requirement of a driver after
mass recognition, and the power following mode is adopted for power generation only when the vehicle is in a
high load and the electric quantity is too low; and 5, after the working point of series power generation is determined, control is conducted according to the target working rotating speed and torque of the engine, the rotating speed of the engine is adjusted and controlled through PID, the rotating speed of the engine is adjusted through the torque of the generator, the difference between the actual rotating speed of the engine and the target rotating speed can be controlled within 100 rmp, the economical performance of the vehicle can be improved, and the
vehicle safety is improved. And the vehicle always works in a high-efficiency area.
