Abstract :
This paper presents simulation studies and preliminary experimental results related to a hybrid battery-ultracapacitor energy source for an urban electric car. A proposal of energy management strategy based on fuzzy logic is introduced. Control strategy for the hybrid source is designed to achieve high-efficiency and high-power source for the vehicle with a relatively small battery storage. Simulation studies show the possibility to use information from a navigation system to improve performance of the source.
