Maximum Control Structure of a Series Hybrid Electric Vehicle using Supercapacitor

Philippe Barrade

The main problem with Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) is the management of batteries. We suggest to replace the batteries by an energy storage ystem made of supercapacitors on a series HEV with two traction drive. A maximum Control Structure (MCS) of such a ...
