N2  - The energy management (EM) and driving speed
co-optimization of a series hybrid electric vehicle (S-HEV) for
minimizing fuel consumption is addressed in this article on the
basis of a suitably modeled series powertrain architecture. The
paper proposes a novel strategy that finds the optimal driving
speed simultaneously with the energy source power split for
the drive mission specified in terms of the road geometry and
travel time. Such a combined optimization task is formulated
as an optimal control problem that is solved by an indirect
optimal control method, based on Pontryagin?s minimum principle. The optimization scheme is tested under a rural drive
mission by extensive comparisons with conventional methods that
deal with either speed optimization only or EM strategies with
given driving cycles. The comparative results show the superior
performance of the proposed method and provide further insight
into efficient driving.
