INTRODUCTION
Need & demand for automobiles is increasing at the speed of rocket; result is: Air
pollution, diminishing petroleum resources and so many other environmental impacts
Air pollution
Gasoline is a hydrocarbon
Toxic NOx, CO, unburned hydrocarbons
Results are acid rain, health problems
Environmental Impacts
CO2 leading greenhouse gas
Depletion of ozone layer
32% CO2 emission from transportation (1990-2000)
WHAT IS A HEV ?
An automobile powered by the combination of I.C engine with one
or more electric motor/generators and a battery pack
HISTORY OF HEVs
1997 (JAPAN) : First modern HEV introduced Toyota Prius
CHARACTERISTICS
Battery
Powers all the Assoceries
Gasoline engine is started only if :
additional power is needed
Battery needs to be charged
LOW SPEED
PASSING
At speeds above mid-range and heavy acceleration:
Both the GASOLINE ENGINE and the ELECTRIC MOTOR are used to
propel the vehicle
Additional electricity from the battery may be used to power the electric
motor.
REGENERATIVE BRAKING
Electric motor converts otherwise wasted energy from baking into
electricity and stores it into battery
Recaptures kinetic energy normally lost as heat during braking.
Electric
as a generator when brakes are applied, converts
motor act
PPERIODIC STOPPING
During periodic stopping like at red light, traffic jam etc., both the
engine and the motor are shut off automatically to avoid energy
loss idling
All other systems, including the electric air conditioning, continue
to run
COMPONENTS
1. Hybrid Engine
3. Hybrid Battery
2.
4. Electric Generator
Electric
Motor
ADVANCE TECHNOLOGY
Regenerative Braking
Kinetic Energy is converted into electrical energy by
electric motor & stored in the battery
Automatic Start & Shut-off
FUTURE OF HEVs
HEVs are now at the forefront of transportation technology development.
Potential to allow continued growth in the automotive sector, while also
reducing critical resource consumption, dependence on foreign oil, air
pollution, and traffic congestion
FUTURE OF HEVs
ADVANTAGES
DISADVANTAGES
Reduced, but not emission-free
HEVs are partial zero-emission vehicles (PZEVs) they produce
zero emissions only when engine is not running
More expensive than conventional Vehicles
Higher maintenance costs
Has a payback period in average use
Lower power output
CONCLUSIONS
HEVs have more efficiency, Low Fuel Economy, High Reliability and
Less Air Pollution.
Optimum Utilization of these Vehicles will yield in good Results,
especially Reduction of pollution
