Electric charge management system and method for a vehicle
An electric charge management device for a vehicle includes a display screen and circuitry. The circuitry sets a first threshold value for a first discharge level of a battery of the vehicle. The first discharge level is greater than a zero state of charge (SOC) of the battery. The circuitry sets a second threshold value for a second discharge level of the battery based on first information associated with the vehicle and/or a user of the vehicle. The circuitry determines a first energy cost for an energy amount between the second discharge level and a current SOC of the battery. The circuitry controls the vehicle to transfer the energy amount to an external electric power system, which is different from the electric charge management device, based on the determined first energy cost.
Hybrid propulsion system and method of controlling same
A system for controlling a hybrid propulsion system includes a computer programmed to obtain altitude and terrain information associated with a predetermined route for the hybrid propulsion system comprising a first energy source and a second energy source. The computer is also programmed to obtain current and forecast ambient weather information associated with the predetermined route of the hybrid propulsion system, determine a power requirement and a torque requirement of the hybrid propulsion system associated with the altitude and the terrain along the predetermined route of the hybrid propulsion system, generate a trip plan to optimize at least one of a plurality of performance parameters of the hybrid propulsion system as the hybrid propulsion system travels along the predetermined route, and preferentially select the first energy source and/or the second energy source based on the trip plan.
POWERTRAIN CONTROL SYSTEM WITH STATE OF HEALTH INFORMATION
A powertrain system may determine a power distribution for a set of power sources of a vehicle. The powertrain system may be coupled to a perception system that may provide perception data indicating a scenario, situation, or environment that has been encountered by the vehicle. The powertrain system may also receive health values. The powertrain system may include machine learning model that may generate the power distribution based on one or more of the perception data, the health values, and a power request.
MOTOR CONTROLLER
A motor controller includes an atmospheric pressure sensor, a coil temperature sensor, and a voltage sensor configured to detect a voltage applied to a motor. The motor controller calculates a partial discharge inception voltage in accordance with the atmospheric pressure and the coil temperature, limits an output of the motor in response to the coil temperature exceeding a preset coil temperature upper limit value, and reduces the coil temperature upper limit value in response to a voltage exceeding the partial discharge inception voltage.
