Energy Efficiency and Economy Analysis of a Range-extended Electric Bus in Different Chinese City Driving Cycles

Based on establishing the powertrain simulation model of the range-extended electric bus, the selected driving cycles are Chinese city and Zhuzhou city of Hunan province, the energy efficiency and economy of the range-extended electric bus is simulated and analyzed with the energy management strategies of CD-CS and Blended. The simulation results show that, the energy efficiency and economy of the range-extended electric bus is different in different driving cycles. Compared with the conventional fuel bus, the energy efficiency is the highest with CD-CS strategy, cost saving can reach 32.81%.
