Design Considerations
of Hybrid Electric Vehicle Powertrain
2
INTRODUCTION
A Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses two power sources to power the
vehicle. Conventionally, one power source is Internal Combustion
Engine and the other is Chemical Batteries plus an Electric Motor Drive.
An HEV thus relies not only on Batteries but also an Internal Combustion
Engine to recharge the batteries and to power a generator to provide
electricity and may also drive a wheel.
An HEV can achieve the cruising range and performance advantages
of conventional vehicles by overcoming the major limitations of pure
Electric Vehicles (EVs).

ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN
RESEARCH AND ADOPTION
LIMITATIONS OF PURE ELECTRIC VEHICLES
With the fast increase of car
ownership, environmental concerns
such as air pollution, global warming,
and the rapid depletion of the Earth
petroleum resources have become a
matter of attention all over the world.
 In order to ensure the quality of
environment and human living life the
automobile industry has started many
researches in the area of vehicles based
on electric propulsion.
Many researches are going on aiming to
improve the EV and HEV technologies.
The Government of India unveiled
'National Electric Mobility Mission Plan
2020' in 2013 to address the issues of
National energy security and in 2015
commissioned the FAME policy [Faster
Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &)
Electric Vehicles in India].
Electric propulsion vehicles have such
promising advantages as high efficiency
and zero emissions. However, a major
disadvantage of pure electric vehicles
compared to vehicles ran by fuel is their
low autonomy range.

P0 Electric Motor connected with IC Engine through a belt
with Front End Accessory Drive (FEAD)
P1 Electric Motor connected directly with ICE Crankshaft
P2
Electric Motor is integrated between the IC Engine and
Transmission and has the same or multiple speed of that of
the ICE
P3
Electric Motor is decoupled from the ICE
Electric Motor is connected with the transmission by
means of Gear-mesh and its speed is multiple of wheel
speed
ARCHITECTURE is

Electric Motor is decoupled from the ICE
Electric Motor is connected with the rear-axle by means of
Gear-mesh and this enables 4WD mode

SERIES Hybrid PARALLEL Hybrid POWER-SPLIT Hybrid
The Internal Combustion
Engine, Generator, Battery,
Motor and Transmission are all
in Series.
Drive to the wheel is provided
by the Electric Motor.
Electric Motor and the
Engine Cranskshaft is
connected by the Clutch.
A Planetary Gear set
connects the Engine, Battery
and Two Electric Motors.
Also called the Series-
Parallel Configuration.
This enables smaller
motors to do the job of larger
motors when compared to
single-mode systems.
Eg. Toyota Prius

Mild Hybrid: Small Electric Motor and Battery are combined
with IC Engine which facilitates Acceleration assist and
Regenerative Braking. Eg. Suzuki Ciaz, Honda Jazz.
Full (or Strong) Hybrid: Bigger Electric Motor and Battery is combined
with downsized IC Engine which allows better Regenerative Braking and
periods of Electric Motor Drive. Eg. Toyota Prius, Ford Escape.
Micro Hybrid: Engine is turned off when
the vehicle pauses in traffic and restarts
quickly. Eg. Mahindra Scorpio.
Plug-in Hybrid: Strong hybrid with extended electric range and necessary electronics
to charge the battery externally. E.g. Audi A3 hybrid, Audi Q7 hybrid, BMW i8 etc.

This is done either to

increasing total torque

the aforesaid purpose.
