Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SUPPLYING POWER IN A HYBRID VEHICLE PROVIDED WITH CAPACITORS, A BATTERY AND ONE OR MORE DC/DC CONVERTERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/151792
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system for discharging or charging a capacitor of a hybrid vehicle according to the present disclosure includes a target state of charge (SOC) module and a capacitor charge/discharge module. The target SOC module determines a target state of charge of the capacitor based on a speed of the vehicle. The capacitor charge/discharge module determines whether a state of charge of a capacitor is greater than a target state of charge. The capacitor charge/discharge module dissipates power from the capacitor to at least one of a battery of the vehicle and an electrical load of the vehicle when the state of charge of the capacitor is greater than the target state of charge.
