The present work describes different HEV configurations and identifies specific operating modes of the split-parallel architecture. Coupling of the two power sources - internal combustion engine (ICE) and electric motor - and control system configuration for the split-parallel hybrid are also presented. Proper distribution of power between the two sources determines effective operation of the hybrid vehicle. The control problem consists of determining this power split at each instant of time. The target is to achieve minimum consumption of fuel, while ensuring the state-of-charge (SOC) of the battery bank remains at acceptable level. This paper reviews some of the control strategies for the HEV, which can be investigated on the split-parallel configuration. Finally, development of a prototype of the split-parallel hybrid vehicle with in-wheel motors - retrofitted from a conventional vehicle - is described. © 2012 IEEE. date: 2012 publisher: IEEE Computer Society official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84865036982&doi=10.1109%2fPEOCO.2012.6230915&partnerID=40&md5=0bbf82fb6ddf08310166484d33d2c00c id_number: 10.1109/PEOCO.2012.6230915 full_text_status: none publication: 2012 IEEE International Power Engineering and Optimization Conference, PEOCO 2012 - Conference Proceedings place_of_pub: Melaka pagerange: 11-16 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781467306614 citation: Zulkifli, S.A. and Saad, N. and Mohd, S. and Aziz, A.R.A.
