РусскийR&D Company “Vector” designed a control system for serial hybrid powertrain for all-terrain 8×8 vehicle.
In this work the controllers EC 17.3 were used for all power converters: drives, generator, supercapacitor. And EC 19.2 was used as a higher-level controller.
The ABS, traction control, cruise control systems were implemented and tested, including optimization of ICE operation mode and kinetic energy reuse system.
For traction drives the field-oriented control system was implemented. The supercapacitor is used not only for kinetic energy reuse but also for “silent mode” and start-up of ICE.
The electrical machines were designed in the research group of Dr. A. Rusakov.
