More Information
Summary:Systems and methods for controlling a hybrid power architecture (100) to provide fuel or energy savings. Recharge time of an energy storage device (ESD) (140) is reduced through the application of a controlled potential and ESD recharge time management over the life of the hybrid system (100) through manipulation of the ESD charge state window of operation (510). Fuel or energy savings is achieved by controlling the partial-state-of-charge (PSOC) window (510) of the ESD (140) based on a recharge resistance profile of the ESD (140) and by controlling a charging potential applied to the ESD (140) based on a recharge current and/or the estimated recharge resistance profile of the ESD (140).
