Energy Management of Automobile Exhaust Thermoelectric Hybrid Power Based on Maximum Power Point Tracking and Fuzzy Logic Control

Abstract

Abstract.To enhance the output performance of automobile exhaust thermoelectric hybrid power, all the components such as engine, automobile exhaust thermoelectric generator (AETEG), DC/DC converter and batteries were modelled with ADVISOR, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method of AETEG combining perturb & observe (P&O) algorithm, quadratic interpolation and constant voltage tracking method was put forward in the power output process of AETEG, and the energy management was optimized with fuzzy logic control according to the state of charge (SOC) of batteries and external load power requirements. The simulated results demonstrate that the output power of automobile exhaust thermoelectric hybrid power well meets the requirements of external load consumed power during the urban dynamo driving schedule (UDDS), the SOC of batteries remains steady between 0.5 and 0.7, and the maximum exhaust waste heat recovery efficiency of AETEG is about 1.3%, validating the proposed energy management strategy as both feasible and efficient.
