Abstract: As a result of global actions for decarbonization, the rapid development of electrified vehicles (EV), including plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) leads to increasing demands for maximizing battery useful life since recycling EV batteries would bring new environmental issues. PHEVs can have a higher fuel economy while maintaining the battery state-of-charge (SoC) through the equivalent consumption minimization strategy (ECMS); however, it is still a great challenge to maximize battery life through PHEV control since it is hard to balance diverse time scale control objectives (fuel economy, SoC control and the battery life). To this end, this paper proposes a Cuboid Equivalent Consumption Minimization Strategy (C-ECMS) for multimode PHEVs. A new concept of the “Hamiltonian matrix” is introduced by adding an additional control degree-of-freedom to the conventional Hamiltonian vector to enable optimal dual motor control in the multi-mode PHEVs. Then, an aging factor (AF) is introduced in associated with the equivalent factor (EF) to generate three Hamiltonian matrices that establish a cuboid knowledge base for the optimal control considering diverse time scale objectives. Experiments under five different driving cycles are conducted to study 1) the impact of Hamiltonian matrix dimensions on SoC control accuracy and 2) the impact of EF and AF settings on the Pareto Frontier considering fuel economy, SoC accuracy, and battery aging. The unified setting for C-ECMS is obtained based on the experimental study, and the result is demonstrated by a comparison study with the rule-based strategy and the standard ECMS implemented in the same PHEV. The results show that the proposed C-ECMS outperforms the standard ECMS control and achieves more accurate SoC sustaining (0.4% of SoC error), less fuel consumption (8.4% improvement), and less battery capacity loss (10.4% improvement).
