Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to an electric vehicle operation energy efficiency control method, in particular to an electric vehicle operation energy efficiency control method driven by a single motor. Background Art
[0002] As the "dual carbon" goal becomes a global consensus, replacing fossil energy with green and clean energy has become a major trend. Thermal power will become less and less, while green power will become more and more. Many countries have formulated a timetable for the withdrawal of fuel vehicles from the market. New energy vehicles, represented by electric vehicles, have developed rapidly in recent years, both in terms of research and production.
[0003] Once the appearance of an electric car is fixed, its drag coefficient is also fixed. Once the mechanical transmission structure and materials are fixed, its friction coefficient is also fixed. The same car hardware, the same road conditions, the same external environment, different control methods will have different operating energy efficiency. In order to meet the normal driving of electric vehicles under various working conditions, it is necessary to consider climbing, full load and some complex road conditions. The power of the electric motor of a single-motor-driven electric vehicle is configured according to the maximum power performance required at the maximum load and the highest design speed. When the speed and load of electric vehicles vary widely, if the control method is inappropriate, it will inevitably lead to low operating efficiency and serious waste of electric energy. People have conducted a lot of research on the operating energy efficiency of electric vehicles to improve the efficient operating range of electric vehicles, save electricity, and increase the cruising range of electric vehicles with the same battery capacity. Since the current electric vehicle operating energy efficiency test standards in various countries around the world are not unified, the constant speed values, acceleration and deceleration values and duration values used in the test are different, and the measured 100-kilometer power consumption data are also different, sometimes even very different. If a test standard is changed, the ranking will also change, causing consumers to be at a loss. This chaotic situation also reflects, from one aspect, that there is currently a lack of a unified optimal method for controlling the operating energy efficiency of electric vehicles.
[0004] For electric vehicles driven by a single motor, the single motor, each gear transmission mechanism and the appearance of the car can be regarded as a set of units. Multiple gears correspond to multiple sets of units. However, when the electric vehicle is running, only one set of units can be put into use at a time, so we can also regard electric vehicles driven by a single motor as a multi-unit system.
[0005] The document "Efficient Energy-Saving Control and Optimization for Multi-Unit Systems - A Guide for Electrical Engineers" (published by Springer), with its Chinese translation as "Efficient Energy-Saving Control and Optimization for Multi-Unit Systems - A Guide for Electrical Engineers", provides the optimal solution for the operating energy efficiency of a multi-unit system, proves Yao Theorem 1 for achieving optimal load distribution, and proves Yao Theorem 2 for achieving optimal unit switching. However, the book does not provide an engineering implementation method for the optimal solution for the operating energy efficiency of a multi-unit system. Summary of the invention
[0006] In order to improve the operating energy efficiency of an electric vehicle driven by a single motor, the present invention provides an operating energy efficiency control method for an electric vehicle driven by a single motor.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is: an electric vehicle driven by a single motor adopts a stepped transmission with n forward gears, n≥1, the first gear has the lowest speed, the speed increases with the increase of gears, and the nth gear has the highest speed; the electric vehicle is driven at a speed V ni Driving, the power consumption per 100 kilometers in gear i is W ni , the battery output power is P ni ; The power consumption per 100 kilometers in i+1 gear is W n(i+1) , the battery output power is P n(i+1) ; n-1≥i≥1, V ni The condition for the speed switching point between gear i and gear i+1 is W ni = W n(i+1) , W ni = W n(i+1) Use P ni =P n(i+1) Instead, with the same conclusion, the electric vehicle speed is less than V ni When the electric vehicle speed is greater than V ni When the electric car speed is equal to V ni This gear switching method can achieve high energy-efficiency operation of electric vehicles driven by a single motor.
[0008] An electric vehicle driven by a single motor uses a continuously variable transmission. The minimum speed ratio change value that the continuously variable transmission can control is Δβ. The electric vehicle is driven at a speed V i Driving, the power consumption per 100 kilometers with speed ratio i is W i , the battery output power is P i ; The power consumption per 100 kilometers driven with speed ratio i-Δβ is W i-Δβ , the battery output power is Pi-Δβ ; The power consumption for driving 100 kilometers with speed ratio i+Δβ is W i+Δβ , the battery output power is P i+Δβ ; V i The condition for the switching point between speed ratio i and speed ratio i+Δβ is W i = W i+Δβ , W i = W i+Δβ Use P i =P i+Δβ Instead, with the same conclusion; V i The condition for the switching point between speed ratio i and speed ratio i-Δβ is W i = W i-Δβ , W i =W i-Δβ Use P i =P i-Δβ Instead, the same conclusion is reached; the electric vehicle speed is less than V i When the electric vehicle speed is greater than V i When the speed ratio is i+Δβ, the electric car speed is equal to V i When the speed ratio remains unchanged, such a speed ratio control method can realize the high energy efficiency operation of electric vehicles driven by a single motor.
[0009] In an electric vehicle driven by a single motor, a step-type transmission is used, with m reverse gears, m ≥ 1, and the first gear has the lowest speed. As the gears increase, the speed also increases, and the m gear has the highest speed. The electric vehicle is driven at a speed of V mi Driving, the power consumption per 100 kilometers in gear i is W mi , the power consumption per 100 kilometers in i+1 gear is W m(i+1) , m-1≥i≥1, V i The condition for the speed switching point between gear i and gear i+1 is W mi = W m(i+1) , the electric vehicle speed is less than V mi When the speed of the electric vehicle is greater than V mi When the electric car speed is equal to V mi This gear switching method can achieve high energy-efficiency operation of electric vehicles driven by a single motor.
[0010] In an electric vehicle driven by a single motor, a step-type transmission is used, with m reverse gears, m ≥ 1, and the first gear has the lowest speed. As the gears increase, the speed also increases, and the m gear has the highest speed. The electric vehicle is driven at a speed of V mi Driving, battery output power P when driving in i gear mi , the battery output power P when driving in i+1 gear m(i+1) , m-1≥i≥1, Vmi The condition for the speed switching point between gear i and gear i+1 is P mi =P m(i+1) , the electric vehicle speed is less than V mi When the electric vehicle speed is greater than V mi When the electric car speed is equal to V mi , the gear position remains unchanged.
[0011] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that this method provides a precise high-energy-efficiency operation control method for electric vehicles driven by a single motor, and since the technical measures adopted by the invention are mature, it can be implemented.
