2. Why EV?
1.Pollution:
According to DOE (USA)
• Transportation accounts for one third of all energy usage.
• Use of 10% of ZEV cuts 1 million tons/year of air pollutants
• With 100% EV - CO2 emission would be cut by half
2.Capital Cost and Maintenance Cost:
• EV has a more capital cost
• But life cycle cost of EV is lesser than ICEV

6. Components of an EV
• Battery
It powers the electric motor. Its capacity is defined in Ah.
The design of battery includes complex calculations which
determines various battery parameters
• Power convertor
The electrical energy stored in battery is fixed DC which
should be converted to either variable DC or Variable AC which
depends on the type of electric motor used for power the wheels
• Electric Motor
DC series, Induction motors were used at the earlier
stage. Now the scope has shifted towards special electrical
machines

7. Components of an EV Contd.,
• Clutch
The engine must be decoupled from the
wheels to shift from low speed to high speed gears or
vice versa, this is done by the clutch.
• Transmission
The gearbox is also called as transmission
which allows transfer of power from engine to
wheels.
• Drivetrain
The combination of Electric motor, Clutch,
Gearbox is referred to as drivetrain

9. Hybrid Electric Vehicle
• An Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses both a
conventional internal combustion engine and an
electric source.
• This mainly facilitates regenerative braking.

10. Regenerative Braking
• A significant amount of energy is consumed by braking.
• Braking a 1500 kg vehicle from 100 km/h to zero speed
consumes about 0.16 kWh of energy.
• This energy lost in brake shoes can be utilized to charge
the battery.

11. Classification of HEV
1.Based On Architecture
• Series
• Parallel
• Series – Parallel
2.Degree Of Hybridization
• Mild
• Power
• Energy

12. Degree of Hybridization
It is the progression from mild to energy hybrids is
related to degree of downsizing the engine and
upsizing the electric motor.
That is the traction power provided by the IC engine
is reduced and that of the electric motor is increased
by varying the capacity of the prime movers
respectively.

13. Classification of HEV contd.,
Charge Depleting:
The HEV which doesn’t have the onboard electricity
generation unit is called as charge depleting HEV.
Charge Sustaining:
The HEV which has onboard electricity generation
facility is called as charge sustaining HEV.

15. Series Hybrid Drivetrain
Contd.,
• IC engine and Battery operate in series
i. The IC engine is fueled by diesel or petrol
which acts as a prime mover to an on board
electric generator which generates electricity
and charges the battery through a power
converter.
ii. The electric energy stored in the battery is used
to drive the electric motor which provides the
full propulsion power.

16. Series Hybrid Drivetrain
Contd.,
• Advantage
Simplicity of control algorithms used to
control the power converters and hence achieving
speed control of electric motors
• Disadvantage
Power train components has to be rated for
the full rating.

18. Parallel Hybrid Drivetrain contd.,
• IC engine and battery operate in parallel
i. Based on the rating of the IC engine and
battery, electric motor the propulsion power is
shared between the sources
ii. The battery can be charged through wheels by
increasing the power output of the IC engine by
using the control algorithm for regenerative
braking

19. Parallel Hybrid Drivetrain
Contd.,
• Advantage
Reduction in size of drive train components
• Disadvantage
Power blending from two sources becomes
difficult and it requires additional mechanical
equipment like planetary gear arrangement.

21. Series- Parallel Hybrid Drivetrain
• It combines both the architecture to extract
respective benefits
• A power splitter is used to feed a part of IC engine
power to drive the on board electric generator
which is used to charge the battery through a
power converter when the SoC of the battery is
below the threshold value.

22. • PHEVs are charge depleting HEV
• They operate in fully electric mode up to certain
distance and then as a regular hybrid vehicle for
longer distances.
• It has a large rated storage system compared to
HEVs
• It has to be plugged in for recharging the battery
