Development of a Series Hybrid Electric Vehicle Laboratory Test Bench with Hardware-in-the-Loop Capabilities

This paper describes the design and development of a laboratory test bench with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) capabilities for the emulation of a Series Hybrid Electric Vehicle (SHEV). The practical challenges of developing a HIL test bench for SHEV emulation are discussed. Furthermore, the overall architecture and system component layout as well as the real-time control algorithm for the test bench are presented. Finally, experimental implementation results on a standard drive cycle are presented to validate the overall operation of the test bench.
