Hydraulic energy storage principle of new energy vehicles

Hydraulic energy storage principle of new energy vehicles

Principle of operation: electricity is used in an electric motor/generator to drive a hydraulic pump/motor that moves hydraulic fluid from a low-pressure reservoir to a hydraulic accumulator during the energy storage mode, see Fig. 1. The accumulator contains pressurized gas, typically nitrogen.

6 FAQs about [Hydraulic energy storage principle of new energy vehicles]

Can hydraulic and Pneumatic energy storage be used in heavy vehicles?

To get the maximum benefit of the high power density of hydraulic and pneumatic energy storage, Bravo R R S et al. explored a new configuration of hydraulic–pneumatic recovery configuration for heavy vehicles to store braking energy used for propulsion or auxiliary systems, as illustrated in Figure 14.

What is a hydraulic energy storage system?

Hydraulic storage systems generally use pneumatic means such as a nitrogen bladder as the actual storage medium with the hydraulics as the actuation system. A taxomomy of energy storage systems has been done that shows the relative energy density of the various media. Table 10.1 is a summary of these fundamental energy storage systems.

How efficient is a series hydraulic electric vehicle?

The series hydraulic electric vehicle has an overall energy efficiency of 3% and a crystal clear hydraulic regenerative efficiency of 17.3%. Further, a comparative study with Ref. indicated that the series hydraulic electric vehicle is more effective in energy utilization and has a higher output energy and a relatively higher power

What are the advantages of mechanical–electric–hydraulic hybrid energy storage systems?

Summary of control approaches used for mechanical–electric–hydraulic hybrid energy storage systems in typical vehicles. Improve the fuel economy by over 24%. Has a fuel saving of up to 18.9% in the short loading cycle. Yield an energy saving of 15.5% and 22.5% for fixed and variable displacement of the hydraulic elements, respectively.

What is a hybrid energy storage system?

Future Prospects and Challenges The energy regeneration and conversion technologies based on mechanical–electric– hydraulic hybrid energy storage systems in vehicles are used in a wide scope of vehicles, from passenger to commercial vehicles, and applied in a variety of scenarios with or without a road.

Do hydraulic hybrid vehicles have energy management techniques?

As can be seen from the aforementioned studies, much attention and research been directed toward energy management techniques for hydraulic hybrid vehicles have been proposed, simulated, analyzed and tested in a HIL or an actual vehicle in vious research.
