Analysis on the difference of DC energy consumption of electric vehicles under repeat cycles

Abstract

In order to avoid the problem of too many AC energy consumption cycles and time-consuming for the standard electric vehicle driving range test, the DC energy consumption test can be used to obtain the energy consumption of the test cycle at any time period and estimate the driving range. However, the rationality of intercepting part of the circulating DC energy consumption to estimate the whole process still lacks sufficient experimental support. Therefore, in this paper, two different electric vehicle prototypes were selected, and a complete energy consumption test experiment was carried out according to the standard test process. Through the test of DC energy consumption, the difference characteristics of electric vehicle driving braking energy and energy consumption under repeated cycles were analyzed. The fluctuation range provides data support for the use of DC power to evaluate the energy consumption of electric vehicles
