A Power Buffer in an Electric Driveline: Two Batteries Are Better Than One

Figure 11

Power delivered to the wheels (blue) by the battery (red) and ICE (green) during the EPA FTP-75 standard drive cycle. The ICE has an on/off control while the battery is capable to follow the power demand up to the energy rating. The power mismatch is close but not zero (black). For clarity, only the first 100 seconds of the simulations are presented.
