There are several types of environment friendly vehicle being developed by auto manufactures. HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicle) is most applicable one among them in actuality. HEV has two power sources, one is an internal combustion engine, the other one is an electric device. The HEV is developed for reducing fuel consumption and emissions. We selected the diesel engine as a main power source of HEV. The tests were carried out under different driving cycles which was CBDBUS (Central Business Driving Bus Schedule) and HWFET (Highway Fuel Economy Test). This research presents a simulation for the fuel economy and the emission of heavy diesel hybrid vehicle according to the SHEV (Serial Hybrid Electric Vehicle), PHEV (Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle), Plug-in SHEV and plug-in PHEV.

플러그인 하이브리드카(Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle: PHEV)는 가정이나 건물의 전기를 이용하여 외부에서 충전한 배터리의 전기동력으로 주행하다가 배터리 방전 시 일반 하이브리드카처럼 내연기관 엔진과 배터리의 전기동력을 동시에 사용하여 운행하는 자동차이다. 자동차 업체들은 전기자동차 보급에 가장 큰 걸림돌인 높은 배터리 가격이 낮아진다고 해도 짧은 주행거리 문제가 해결되지 않기 때문에, 대안으로 전원을 직접 연결해 배터리를 충전할 수 있는 플러그인 하이브리드카 개발에 주력하고 있다.

nowadays, many researches for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles have been actively carried out to improve the gas mileage in comparison with mass-produced hybrid electric vehicles. In this paper, the on-board charger for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles is studied for obtaining the high efficiency. The on-board charger consists of two phase interleaved PFC circuit and LLC resonant converter. The new design procedures of LLC resonant converter are proposed in this paper. These are very simple and powerful method. In order to verify the abovementioned contents, the LLC resonant converter is designed and tested by using PSIM tool.

In this paper, engine clutch engagement shock is analyzed during the mode change of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Multi-driving mode includes the EV (electric vehicle) mode, HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) mode, and engine operating mode. Depending on the mode change, the engine clutch is either engaged or disengaged. The magnitude of shock during clutch engagement is very important because it impacts vehicle acceleration and clutch synchronization speed, which affects ride comfort substantially. The performance simulator of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles was developed using MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results show that the mode change control algorithm is necessary for minimizing shock during clutch engagement.

본 논문은 새로운 역률보상회로를 적용한 플러그인 하이브리드 전기 자동차 탑재형 완속 충전기(On-Board Charger, OBC)를 제안한다. 제안하는 완속 충전기용 역률보상회로 (Power Factor Correction, PFC)는 기존의 부스트 컨버터를 기본으로 하는 역률보상회로와 동일한 개수의 회로 부품과 입 출력전압 관계를 가진다. 회로 구조상 전파 정류된 DC 전압을 저장하는 입력 커패시터와 입력 인덕터의 에너지가 저장되는 출력 커패시터가 직렬 결합되어 DC-link 전압을 형성하므로 출력 커패시터의 동작전압(Working voltage)을 낮출 수 있어 단가절감이 가능하다. 제안된 역률보상 회로를 적용한 플러그인 하이브리드 전기 자동차 탑재형 완속 충전기에 대한 동작 특성을 해석하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 타당성을 검증한다.

This paper proposes the process for evaluating the impact of charging the PHEV(Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) on the distribution systems, and analyzes the study results employing the actual systems as the PHEV is highly expected to increase in the automobile industries in North America in the near future. Since the charging load of the PHEV directly connected to the distribution systems would consume electric power much more than any other existing electric product of residential customers, the new modeling and process would be required to consider the PHEV in distribution systems planning. The EPRI(Electric Power Research Institute) is collaboratively conducting the impact study of PHEV on the distribution systems with power utilities in North America. This study models distribution systems and the charging load of the PHEV using OpenDSS software, and analyzes the impact of PHEV on the distribution systems by assuming various scenarios with different charging time and PHEV types.

Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle(PHEV) is a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) with more added battery capacity that can be recharged from the electric power grid. Plug-in battery electric vehicle(PBEV) is a pure electric vehicle that uses only electric motor using electricity from battery that recharged from the power grid. PHEV and PBEV requires recharging of batteries in the vehicles from electric power grid. Recently, PHEVs and PBEV are being developed around the world. It is important to understand how these electric vehicles affect power demands and carbon dioxide emissions. From vehicle customer viewpoint, running energy cost will be imporatnt factor to consider. This paper analyzes the potential impacts of PHEVs and PBEVs on electric power demand, and associated CO2 emissions in 2020 with an projection that the vehicles will be penetrated with 10% market share. Energy costs for the vehicles are also calculated and compared with the conventional combustion vehicle.

최근 10년동안 지구환경 문제는 인류가 하는 모든 활동에 있어 기본전제가 되고 있다. 지구온난화 문제로 인해 자동차의 $CO_2$ 배출량을 줄이는 문제가 최근 수송기계 분야의 초미 관심사가 되고 있으며 온실가스 문제와 석유자원 고갈에 따른 대체에너지 문제에 따라 자동차 산업은 큰 전환기를 맞고 있다. 세계 각국에서 이산화탄소 배출규제가 법제화되면서 내연기관 중심의 자동차 기술은 그린카(친환경자동차) 기술로의 패러다임의 변화를 보이고 있다. 그린카는 전기자동차, 클린 디젤차, 연료전지차 정도로 대분류되며 전기자동 전기자동차(EV), 하이브리드 전기자동차(HEV), 플러그인 하이브리드 전기자동차(PHEV) 등으로 분류된다. 이미 그린카의 양산이 수년전부터 활발하게 진행되어 왔으며, 최근 2~3년내로 각국의 major급 자동차 메이커에서 이에 대한 양산 계획을 속속 발표하고 있다. 이러한 전 세계의 그린카 정책동향과 국내 그린카 활성화 정책 및 현정부의 광역경제권 선도산업으로 추진중인 호남광역경제권 전기자동차 산업 육성 정책에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

The most concerning issue in these days is the energy crisis by increasing threat of global warming and depletion of natural resources. In the situations, the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) is drawing attention from many countries for the next generation's car which has higher fuel efficiency and lower environmental impact. This paper presents simulation results about the limit capacity of central power-grid which doesn't have enough surplus electric power for charging PHEVs. Therefore, this paper also presents a smart charging system that can charge the PHEVs with a function of distributing demands of charging. The smart charging system is an agent facility between the government and consumer, which can recommend the best time to charge the battery of PHEVs by the lowest energy cost. This function of choosing time-slots is the technical system for the government which wants to control the consumption rate of electric power for PHEVs. Finally, this paper presents the economic feasibility of PHEVs from the two kinds of price system, midnight electric price and home electric price.
