What Is Hybrid Vehicle ?

Hybrid Vehicle is a an automobile which combines more than

one method of propulsion system.
It can be anything from a petrol with electric motor, petrol with
an hydraulic motor, diesel with electric or even solar power.

Aim of Technology

The concept is to club the two technologies of an Internal Combustion

Engine with the Electric main drive.
This we thrive to achieve by using the electric hub motor installed in the
wheel and a programmable controller which will have the maximum
speed of the motor to 50km
The motor used is a BLDC (Brush Less DC Motor) hub motor and. The
portability of the batteries is a high value concerned and shall be met
with proper result in this technology.

Development
Market assessment for the current I.C engine efficiency,

Efficiency and positive negative effects.
The survey was conducted over petrol motorcycles and
electric scooters available in the market. The cost per km
was calculated with an assumption of the future prices
and the maintenance cost of these vehicles and later
compared with the hybrid motorcycle technology.

Feasibility of the technology as

per current market condition
Although there has been development in the diesel fuel with an
advent of bio diesel and LPG conversion kits in the market but
still there is almost no competition in the market with this kind
of hybrid motorcycle.
The sale if motorcycle is still increasing and in future so will the
fuel prices, for that the hybrid concept seems quite ideal as it
not only decreases the per km cost of the consumer but also
enhances the range of the drive.

Parameters responsible for technology

components based on end user Requirement
terms
These requirements were necessary in order to find the complete set
of calculations on which the technology can be made, unless we
know what our need we cant develop a good technology is.

Range:

60 km to 80 km on electric power

Speed: Maximum speed 40-50km/hr. (as per the city driving

condition)
Torque:
Enough to carry a passenger and a rider with
a tank full of petrol (300kg approximately ( + or 30 kg).

Motor Power Study

In order to obtain the best power from the motor, we
have to have a motor with a higher watt specification,
that is we need to increase the stator winding keeping
the voltage constant.
For that we did a complete survey of the motors
available in the market but we found none matching our
need so we decided to make one by increasing the

What is a Hub Motor ?

It is also called wheel motor, wheel hub drive, hub motor or inwheel motor is an electric motor that is incorporated into the
hub of a wheel and drives it directly.
Hub motor electromagnetic fields are supplied to the stationary
windings of the motor. The outer part of the motor follows, or
tries to follow, those fields, turning the attached wheel.

Electric Motor Defined

Brush less Direct

Current (BLDC)
motors in which
permanent magnets
on the rotor create a
magnetic field which
interact with
synchronous stator
current.

Motor Rotor
Position

The rotation of a motor can be calculated by using EMF sensing

to estimate rotor position. Field-oriented control goes a step
further by using a finer rotor position estimate to calculate
motor currents into the rotating frame. The rotating frame is
defined by two axes, d for magnetic axis and q for rotor
axis.

Battery
System
A lead acid battery goes
through three life phases,
called
formatting,
peak
and decline
Formatting is most important for
deep-cycle batteries and requires
20 to 50 full cycles to reach peak
capacity

Controller

roller is a brain of the complete hybrid system. Its function is to receive

various sensors and provide Electrical power as per the throttle positio
e. It decides the fuel mode that is, to run the motorcycle on petrol or to
lectrical power. It checks the battery voltage and current value and noti
user about the charging time.
