Hybrid Electric Vehicle Energy Management System

View page
US Patent:
20080021628, Jan 24, 2008
Filed:
Sep 28, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/864880
Inventors:
Bruce Tryon - West Bloomfield MI, US
Assignee:
WILLIAMS INTERNATIONAL CO., L.L.C. - Walled Lake MI
International Classification:
B60W 10/08
B60W 20/00
G01C 21/00
G01C 21/26
US Classification:
701099000, 701001000, 701207000, 701208000, 701213000, 701217000, 701220000, 903904000
Abstract:
A vehicle location sensor such as a GPS, an inertial navigation or dead reckoning system determines location data for a vehicle that travels from a known first destination to a second destination. This location data is processed by a route computer system, and associated vehicle driving patterns are stored in memory. Measured vehicle locations, possibly in combination with stored driving pattern information, are used to anticipate a likely second destination and a likely associated driving pattern from a current location of the vehicle to the likely second destination. The anticipation of a destination or a driving pattern can be responsive to associated likelihoods based upon previous vehicle behavior, which likelihoods can be also dependent upon the time of day, day of week or date. A power generator and an energy storage device of a hybrid electric vehicle can be controlled responsive to the anticipated likely driving pattern, and possibly responsive to information from environment sensors.

US Patent:
20080027639, Jan 31, 2008
Filed:
Sep 28, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/864872
Inventors:
Bruce TRYON - West Bloomfield MI, US
Assignee:
WILLIAMS INTERNATIONAL CO., L.L.C. - Walled Lake MI
International Classification:
G01C 21/34
US Classification:

US Patent:
20080051977, Feb 28, 2008
Filed:
Oct 29, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/926367
Inventors:
Bruce TRYON - West Bloomfield MI, US
Assignee:
WILLIAMS INTERNATIONAL CO., L.L.C. - Walled Lake MI
International Classification:
F02D 28/00
US Classification:
701103000
Abstract:
In accordance with one aspect, fuel flow to a recuperated turbine engine is controlled so as to covert heat energy stored in a recuperator to useful work in anticipation of shutting down the recuperated turbine engine. In accordance with another aspect, fuel flow to an operating recuperated turbine engine is shut off, a condition of the recuperated turbine engine is monitored, and fuel flow is resumed prior to a time when the condition would indicate that the recuperated turbine engine would not likely start without requiring a source of external energy to rotate the compressor thereof.

US Patent:
20050228553, Oct 13, 2005
Filed:
Mar 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/708897
Inventors:
Bruce Tryon - West Bloomfield MI, US
Assignee:
WILLIAMS INTERNATIONAL CO., L.L.C. - Walled Lake MI
International Classification:
B60K006/02
US Classification:
701022000, 180006500
Abstract:
A vehicle location sensor such as a GPS, an inertial navigation or dead reckoning system determines location data for a vehicle that travels from a known first destination to a second destination. This location data is processed by a route computer system, and associated vehicle driving patterns are stored in memory. Measured vehicle locations, possibly in combination with stored driving pattern information, are used to anticipate a likely second destination and a likely associated driving pattern from a current location of the vehicle to the likely second destination. The anticipation of a destination or a driving pattern can be responsive to associated likelihoods based upon previous vehicle behavior, which likelihoods can be also dependent upon the time of day, day of week or date. A power generator and an energy storage device of a hybrid electric vehicle are controlled responsive to the anticipated likely driving pattern, and possibly responsive to information from environment sensors. In one embodiment, a recuperated turbine engine power generator is shut off in advance of reaching an anticipated destination so as to recover latent heat energy from a regenerator, wherein the recovered energy can be either stored in the energy storage unit or used to drive a traction motor of the hybrid electric vehicle.
