Abstract In order to ensure that the lithium-ion battery pack keeps good working performance during the driving of electric vehicle, the heat generation mechanism and heat transfer characteristics of lithium-ion battery are analyzed. The power battery pack of electric vehicle is simulated by advanced vehicle simulator. The simulation results of battery pack current under typical cycle conditions and the heat source curve of lithium ion battery are obtained, which provide data for the simulation of heat source input of battery temperature field. On this basis, the flow field and temperature fiel d of the original lithium-ion battery pack of electric vehicle… More >

Abstract The brake-by-wire system requirement is promoted owing to the development of green energy vehicle, and the brake pressure control method is needed. A control method for the master cylinder hydraulic pressure based on the sliding mode control approach is proposed to provide the Electro-Hydraulic Brake system (EHB) of electric vehicles with superior system performances. An assessment is carried out about the complex nonlinear characteristics and sensitivity to the external environment of these systems, which include illustrating the working principle of the EHB system, establishing the dynamic models of the key components of the EHB system. The sliding mode control method… More >

Abstract Electric vehicles (EVs) are recognized as one of the most promising technologies worldwide to address the fossil fuel energy resource crisis and environmental pollution. As the initial work of EV charging station (EVCS) construction, site selection plays a vital role in its whole life cycle. In this paper, a multi-objective optimization model for the location layout of EVCSs is established when considering various factors such as user demand, investment cost, soil locations, the emergency charging mileage limit, the actual road condition and service network reliability. The model takes the minimum investment cost and the minimum user charging cost as the… More >
