Abstract

For hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) systems, studies using model-based simulators have been actively conducted. The vehicle powertrain simulator makes it easier to evaluate the powertrain system. In this paper, we utilize a Toyota Hybrid System (THS) simulator to obtain a long-term control that optimizes the fuel efficiency when the vehicle speed over a certain period is given. Our proposed method obtains optimal long-term control by solving the shortest path problem with state of charge (SOC) constraints after constructing a graph expressing the transition of the fuel and battery consumption. We also propose a search method for vehicle control using bicubic spline interpolation without the preparation of a controller. We finally remove almost all edges from a graph by 97.2% at most through the utilization of 0-1 integer linear programming, which enables a 3.88x speedup in obtaining the optimal vehicle control.
