Analysis of the control strategy of range extender system on the vehicle NVH performance

With focus on NVH performance, this paper studies the range extender system control strategy such as the initial start speed, operating points, speed up and down control method between operating points of the range extender, etc. At the same time, the confirmation of the operating points of the range extender based on the full vehicle frequency distribution and vibration and noise level of key points (seat rail, driver’s inner ear) was performed. Finally, we conducted objective test and compared the test data with benchmark vehicles.
