A Control Strategy for Driving Mode Switches of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles
Driving mode switches of hybrid vehicles are significant events. Due to the different dynamic characteristics of the engine, motor, and wet clutch, it is difficult to coordinate torque fluctuations caused by mode switches. This paper focused on a control strategy for driving mode switches of plug-in...

Driving mode switches of hybrid vehicles are significant events. Due to the different dynamic characteristics of the engine, motor, and wet clutch, it is difficult to coordinate torque fluctuations caused by mode switches. This paper focused on a control strategy for driving mode switches of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) with a multi-disk wet clutch. First, the dynamic model of the PHEV was established, and a rule-based control strategy was proposed to divide the working mode regions and distribute the torque between engine and motor. Second, the dual fuzzy control strategy for a wet clutch and the coordinated torque control strategy for driving mode switches were proposed. The dual fuzzy logic control system consisted of the initial pulse-width modulation (PWM)’s duty cycle control and the changing rate of the PWM’s duty cycle control. Considering the difference in the dynamic characteristics between engine, motor, and wet clutch, a coordinated control strategy for the driving mode switches of PHEVs was put forward.
