Popis: | Abstract Managing the high‐rate‐power transients of Electric Vehicles (EVs) in a drive cycle is of great importance from the battery health and drive range aspects. This can be achieved by high power‐density storage, such as a high‐speed Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS). It is shown that a variable‐mass flywheel can effectively utilise the FESS useable capacity in most transients close to optimal. Novel variable capacities FESS is proposed by introducing Dual‐Inertia FESS (DIFESS) for EVs. The feasibility of the proposed concept is evaluated by deriving the size of a Single‐Inertia FESS (SIFESS) for a battery EV, which runs the well‐known Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule. The sizing framework consists of an Energy Management System using the constrained Pontryagin's minimum principle and a proposed sizing algorithm. Then, by splitting the derived SIFESS inertia into two separate inertias, the appropriate engaging control of inertias is determined for some driving cycles including, the Artemis Urban, Braunschweig City, and Worldwide Harmonised Light‐duty Vehicles Test Cycle. The dual inertias suitable sizes are derived using a proposed algorithm, which targets maximising the FESS useable capacity. The results show that compared to the SIFESS, the DIFESS can employ the FESS's useable capacity more effectively. |
