Study on the influence of high and low temperature environment on the energy consumption of battery electric vehicles
Abstract
In order to study the influence of high and low temperature environments on the energy consumption of battery electric vehicles, this paper takes Tianjin as an example to collect the actual road data of 8 battery electric passenger cars for eight months. It determines the correlation between each characteristic parameter and energy consumption based on the maximum mutual information coefficient of short stroke segments, of which the average driving speed correlation is the highest, which is 0.785. Given the two factors that have a greater impact on energy consumption in high and low temperature environments: driving resistance and air conditioning on motion and idle energy consumption analysis, the study shows that in terms of driving resistance, high temperature and low temperature energy consumption are reduced and increased by 5.4% and 13.3% respectively relative to normal temperature; The energy consumption of high temperature and low temperature air conditioner switching on increased by 17.12% and 47.48% respectively compared with the air conditioner off.
