  1. 11. Optimal Control and Thermal Managementof Heavy-Duty FCHEV Powertrains : Minimizing hydrogen consumption of an FCHEV using numerical optimal control and an integrated energy and thermal management system

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Daniel Similä; Jonatan Siönäs; [2022]
    Keywords : Control Engineering; Powertrain Engineering; FCHEV; Optimal Control; Thermal Management;

    Abstract : The CO2 emissions from road vehicles must be reduced in order to avoid a 1.5 ◦C global warming. To reduce tailpipe emissions, a strong trend is to electrify powertrains to shift away from the use of fossil fuel. Among alternatives, the fuel cellhybrid electric vehicle (FCHEV) is seen as a promising configuration. READ MORE
