Description
Summary:This article presents a methodology for determining the required engine power of hybrid city buses. The vehicle’s driving cycle and its main technical characteristics were used as the initial data. The calculated change in power on the driving wheels is an intermediate result and is used to analyze the chains of energy transfer from gasoline engine to driving wheels. In this approach, a sequential type of circuit in a hybrid drive is used. A bus weighing 4 tons was considered as an example, and the calculations showed that the maximum power of the internal combustion engine should be 15.2 kW.
