An Integrated Energy Management and Control Framework for Hybrid Military Vehicles based on Situational Awareness and Dynamic Reconfiguration 2022-01-0349
As powertrain hybridization technologies are becoming popular, their application for heavy-duty military vehicles is drawing attention. An intelligent design and operation of the energy management system (EMS) is important to ensure that hybrid military vehicles can operate efficiently, simultaneously maximize fuel economy and minimize monetary cost, while successfully completing mission tasks. Furthermore, an integrated EMS framework is vital to ensure a functional vehicle power system (VPS) to survive through critical missions in a highly stochastic environment, when needed. This calls for situational awareness and dynamic system reconfiguration capabilities on-board of the military vehicle. This paper presents a new energy management and control (EMC) framework based on holistic situational awareness (SA) and dynamic reconfiguration of the VPS. Typical results on a notional hybrid ground vehicle power system are presented to illustrate: 1) mission tasks power requirements and respective priority assignments; and 2) roles of situational awareness and dynamic reconfiguration layer in the operation of the proposed integrated energy management and control framework.
