Optimal Power Management And Distribution In Automotive Systems

Abstract

With the increase in electrical/electronic content in vehicles, the on-board electric power requirement is likely to increase from 1 kW to 5 kW for non-propulsion loads and to 100 kW or more for propulsion loads in the near future. This is based on the trend observed during the past decade, and this dramatic increase in power demand is mainly due to the emergence of various electric and hybrid drivetrains. However, other emerging automotive technologies for internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, such as variable engine valve, active suspension, x-by-wire (e.g., steering-by-wire and brake-by-wire), and heated catalytic converter, have also made considerable contributions to this trend. Table 5.1 lists the peak and average power requirements of various electrical loads that current or future automotive power systems are required to meet.
