Project Overview
• Our hypothetical company (D Corp) has designed a hybrid vehicle
• The performance did not satisfy the Chief Engineer’s expectations.
• The goal handed down from the Chief Engineer is to maximize fuel economy and zero – 60 performance without exceeding the budget
• Zero - 60 and budget were determined subjectively through benchmarking
• The Fuel Economy Target was provided by the Chief Engineer
Targets• Fuel economy improvement ≥ 30% (≥ 22.6 mpg)
• Zero - 60 mph performance < 7.5 sec
• Improvement Budget = $1,900 (self-imposed)
Our key focus was to improve fuel economy first, then zero – 60 time, while staying within our budget.

Engine
• 4 Cyl, SI Engine, with DI & V.V.T
• Option 2• Cost: $100
• 2.48:1• Cost: $25
• NiMH• Option 1• Cost: $500
• 2.65:1• Cost: $25
• Base E-Machine, Higher RPM

The bulk of the chassis budget was spent on lightweight body material.
Control Strategy – Baseline Control Weakness(Baseline Control)
Actual Engine Operation Points During the Drive

Idle
I.C.E Stop (Auto Off)
Wasted Fuel
The baseline control strategy allows the vehicle to idle frequently –outside of the high efficiency operating area for the ICE
Engine RPM During Drive Cycle
Engine Idling
Control Strategy – Target Propulsion Efficiency
Idle Torque=0, Opportunity Cost=1(worst)
Optimize the Engine Operating Points to Fall in this area.
ICE Off Torque=0, Opportunity Cost=0
ICE Efficiency E-Motor Efficiency
Goal Identify what areas need to improve to increase FE.
The E-Motor has a relatively high efficiency throughout the operating range, while the ICE does not.
Our primary goal was to improve ICE efficiency.
Desired ICE Operation – Ideal Target
Idle (Zero Efficiency for ICE)
When ICE on, optimize to get the maximum work out.
If ICE is not needed turn it off and keep off as long as possible to avoid startup penalties.
ICE Off (Zero Fuel Consumption)
We can improve FE by spending lots of money on high performance, low weight components, however it comes with a risk of poor sales.
Minimize IDLE (ICE on with zero fuel efficiency)
We chose to focus our controls on maximizing the efficiency of the ICE.

Engine
Once maximum SOC is achieved, regeneration is stopped and engine request matches torque request.
ICE operates at constant efficiency, extra energy is used for regeneration.

Battery Selection Summary
Parameter NiMH vs. Li-Ion △ (NiMH to Li-Ion)Total Mass 1671kg 1719kg + 48kg Total Cost $1735 $2585 + $850Total FE 50.74 58.38 - 7.64mpg
Annual Fuel Cost(12k mi/yr @ $2.50/gal)
$600 $517 $83/year(10.24 years until break even point)
Since the Li-Ion battery is much more expensive, and requires more than 10 years to offset that
expense, we chose the NiMH battery.

The theoretical minimum 0-60 time is 12.4 seconds. Our model
achieves 60 mph within 13.75 seconds – within 1.35 seconds of
the minimum.
Engine-off time was optimized to minimize the number of restarts.
