Multi-objective component sizing of plug-in hybrid electric vehicle for optimal energy management

This paper presents a methodology for component sizing optimization of a parallel plug-in hybrid electric vehicle by considering it as a multi-objective optimization problem. In this approach, two objective functions are defined to minimize the drivetrain cost, fuel consumption, and exhaust emissions simultaneously. Also, the driving performance requirements are considered as constraints. In addition, fuzzy logic controller including blended control strategy is developed for the PHEV. Finally, by means of multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm, the best choices of components are selected for 32 miles of the both TEH-CAR and UDDS driving cycles. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and practicality of the approach, which prepare different optimal component sizes with various drivetrain costs, equivalent fuel consumption, and exhaust emissions.
