Figure 4.8 Representation of load, battery and ultracapacitor power equilibrium to satisfy a drive profile<br />

CASE 1<br />

Case 1 considers the vehicle model subjected to the first 600 seconds of an Urban<br />

Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS). The cycle was initially developed to describe an<br />

urban route. It basically comprises of several transient phases with many speed peaks, which<br />

start from rest. Figure 4.9 depicts this drive profile. Salient points of the profile are as<br />

follows.<br />

� Dive profile consisting of 7 segments of start-stop sequences<br />

� Near maximum velocity is reached<br />

� Rapid acceleration and decelerations<br />

� Minimum vehicle coasting requirement<br />

� Maximum Velocity of 91 km/h<br />

� Maximum Acceleration of 1.38ms -2<br />

� Maximum Deceleration of 1.4ms -2
