As shown in Figure 10 , the schematic Figure 8 provided by the embodiments of the present application can include:

[0157] S1001, obtaining the current gear, the first shaft speed of the engine, the second shaft speed of the generator, the current throttle opening, the current road slope information, and the current vehicle weight information of the target hybrid vehicle.

[0158] Specifically, through the communication connection between the vehicle control device and the engine ECU, the generator GM, and the drive motor TM, the current gear of the target hybrid vehicle, the first shaft speed of the engine ECU , the second shaft speed of the generator GM , the current throttle opening , the current road slope information, and the current vehicle weight information are further obtained.

[0159] S1002, according to the gear transmission information, the first speed relationship of the input shaft in the engine, the generator and the hybrid transmission structure is determined.

[0160] Specifically, referring to the above Figure 1 , the engine ECU, the generator GM and the input shaft correspond to the planetary carrier 1, the sun gear 1 and the outer ring gear 1 in the input planetary gear structure respectively. According to the gear ratio of the outer ring gear 1 and the sun gear 1, the gear transmission ratio K of the input planetary gear structure is calculated by using the above formula (1). According to the gear transmission ratio K, the transmission proportional relationship between the planetary carrier 1, the sun gear 1 and the outer ring gear 1 can be obtained, which corresponds to the speed relationship between the first shaft speed of the engine ECU , the second shaft speed of the generator GM and the speed of the input shaft in the hybrid vehicle structure, that is, the first speed relationship, which can be determined by using the above formula (2).

[0161] S1003, according to the gear transmission information and the current gear, the second speed relationship between the input shaft and the drive motor under the current gear is determined.

[0162] Specifically, referring to the above Figure 1 , if the gear transmission ratio K1 under the current gear is obtained according to the information of the gear structure and the current gear, it means that the drive motor TM and the input shaft of the target hybrid vehicle are not directly connected, but connected through the gear structure. According to the different settings of the current gear, the ring gear ratio between the drive motor TM and the input shaft will be different, and in the PTO gear mode, the drive motor TM and the input shaft are not connected. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the gear transmission ratio K1 between the current gear and the drive motor TM and the input shaft, and then the second speed relationship can be determined according to the gear transmission ratio K1 under the current gear, that is, the corresponding relationship between the speed of the input shaft and the third shaft speed of the drive motor TM is obtained.

[0163] If the input shaft and the drive motor TM are directly connected, the speed of the input shaft and the third shaft speed of the drive motor TM are equal, that is = . Then the above formula (4) can be used to express it.

[0164] S1004, according to the first shaft speed and the second shaft speed, the first speed relationship is used to calculate the speed of the input shaft.

[0165] Specifically, the gear transmission ratio K of the input planetary gear structure is accurately calculated according to the first shaft speed and the second shaft speed based on the first speed relationship .

[0166] S1005, according to the speed of the input shaft, the second speed relationship is used to calculate the third shaft speed of the drive motor.

[0167] Specifically, according to the speed of the input shaft corresponding to the current gear and the gear ratio of the drive motor TM, i.e. the second speed relationship, the third shaft speed of the drive motor TM is calculated .

[0168] S1006, according to the first shaft speed of the engine, the second shaft speed of the generator, and the third shaft speed of the drive motor, the initial peak demand power of the target hybrid vehicle is calculated.

[0169] Specifically, the external characteristic parameters of the engine ECU, the external characteristic parameters of the generator GM, and the external characteristic parameters of the drive motor TM are respectively obtained from the preset storage information of the hybrid vehicle. Then according to the current gear, the first shaft speed , the second shaft speed , and the third shaft speed corresponding to the current gear are determined, and the first peak torque of the engine ECU, the second peak torque of the generator GM, and the third peak torque of the drive motor TM are respectively obtained from the external characteristic parameters of the engine ECU, the external characteristic parameters of the generator GM, and the external characteristic parameters of the drive motor TM. The above formula (5), formula (6) and formula (7) are used to calculate the first peak demand power of the engine ECU, the second peak demand power of the generator GM, and the third peak demand power of the drive motor TM. The sum of the three demand powers is calculated, and the above formula (8) is used to calculate the initial peak demand power .

[0170] S1007, according to the current throttle opening, the current road slope information and the current vehicle weight information, the initial peak demand power is corrected to obtain the target demand power of the target hybrid vehicle.

[0171] Specifically, according to the current throttle opening , the initial peak demand power is corrected, the first corrected demand power is obtained by using the above formula (9), then the first corrected demand power is twice corrected by using the target multiple regression function modelFun1, and the target demand power is obtained by using the above formula (10).

[0172] The vehicle demand power prediction method provided in the embodiments of the present application obtains the current gear of the target hybrid vehicle, the first shaft speed of the engine, the second shaft speed of the generator, the current throttle opening, the current road slope information and the current vehicle weight information, determines the first speed relationship of the input shaft in the engine, the generator and the hybrid transmission structure according to the gear transmission information, determines the second speed relationship of the input shaft and the drive motor under the current gear according to the gear transmission information and the current gear, calculates the speed of the input shaft by using the first speed relationship according to the first shaft speed and the second shaft speed, calculates the third shaft speed of the drive motor by using the second speed relationship according to the speed of the input shaft, calculates the initial peak demand power of the target hybrid vehicle according to the first shaft speed of the engine, the second shaft speed of the generator and the third shaft speed of the drive motor, and corrects the initial peak demand power according to the current throttle opening, the current road slope information and the current vehicle weight information to obtain the target demand power of the target hybrid vehicle. Thus, the vehicle demand power is calculated in real time by comprehensively considering the current gear, the shaft speed, the throttle opening, the road slope and the vehicle weight, and the size of the vehicle demand power is corrected in real time according to the throttle pedal opening requested by the driver, the vehicle information and the road slope information, so that the target demand power is obtained, the hybrid vehicle distributes the torque according to the target demand power, the torque distributed by the engine is smaller if the vehicle demand power at the current moment is smaller, and the fuel consumption is reduced, and the torque distributed by the engine is larger if the demand power at the current moment is larger, and the vehicle power is improved. Thus, the accurate and real-time calculation of the target demand power is of great significance to improving the power and fuel economy of the hybrid vehicle. Meanwhile, the prediction accuracy of the demand power of the hybrid vehicle can also be effectively improved.
