battery during acceleration.
The generator closely matches the peak output of the engine but the larger traction motor can also draw at least 30 horses from the 1.3 - kWh lithium - ion
battery during acceleration.
Not exact matches
Although capacitors can not store as much energy as
batteries, they are far better at releasing rapid pulses of electricity (for fast
acceleration) and collecting electricity (recovered
during braking, for instance).
«I imagine that the cars of the future will have a
battery connected to many capacitors spread throughout the vehicle, which will take over energy supply
during high - power demand phases
during acceleration for example and ramming up of the air - conditioning system.
The system uses an electric double - layer capacitor to capture recovered energy
during braking and supplies electric power to the car
during acceleration instead of using the
battery.
A 115 - volt lithium - ion
battery and 15 - kW induction motor - generator help increase fuel economy by providing up to 11 kW (15 hp) of electric power assistance
during acceleration.
It operates as a generator as well,
during deceleration to feed the
battery and
during acceleration to power the rear wheels.
Regenerative braking, which provides up to 15 kW of electricity to charge the
battery Providing up to 15 hp (11 kW) of electric power assistance
during heavier
acceleration Using electricity instead of gasoline when stopped, with automatic and smooth engine start - stop functionality Aggressive fuel cut - off
during deceleration down to zero mph for added fuel savings Intelligent charge / discharge of the high - voltage
battery.
The electric motor switches into hybrid operation and serves as either a secondary engine (
during full
acceleration and hill - climbing) or a generator (
during cruising and deceleration) to recharge the
battery pack as necessary.
Charge - depleting mode allows a fully charged PHEV to operate exclusively (or depending on the vehicle, almost exclusively, except
during hard
acceleration) on electric power until its
battery state of charge is depleted to a predetermined level, at which time the vehicle's internal combustion engine or fuel cell will be engaged.
The car's accessories continue to operate using
battery power, and the 11 kW electric motor - generator provides a small amount of torque to the wheels
during acceleration.
Under
acceleration the mild hybrid system provides up to 10kW of electric power assistance to the powertrain in «motor» mode, while in «generator» mode, the system harvests kinetic energy from the vehicle
during in - gear deceleration and braking and uses the power to recharge the
batteries.
The new
batteries bolster the engine with approximately 11 kw (15 horsepower) of electric power assist
during heavy
acceleration and 15 kW of regenerative braking power.
You may be able to stay on the
battery alone
during gentle
acceleration, but if you put your foot into it, the electric motor won't be enough and the gasoline engine will kick in.
• Regenerative braking, which provides up to 15 kW of electricity to charge the
battery • Providing up to 11 kW (15 hp) of electric power assistance
during acceleration • Automatic engine shut - off when the vehicle is stopped • Aggressive fuel cut - off
during deceleration down to zero vehicle speed, enabled by the torque smoothing provided by the motor - generator unit • Intelligent charge / discharge of the high - voltage
battery.
A 115 - volt air - cooled lithium - ion
battery pack bolsters the engine with approximately 11 kilowatts (15 horsepower) of electric power assist
during rapid
acceleration or on demanding inclines and 15 kilowatts of regenerative braking power.
In recovery mode it gathers kinetic energy generated under braking and periods of trailing throttle, storing it in the
battery for use
during periods of
acceleration.
Like a gas - electric hybrid, it uses a lithium ion
battery to assist the fuel cell
during acceleration and capture energy through regenerative braking, thus improving fuel efficiency.
The lithium ion
battery recharges through the technology of regenerative braking (capturing energy electrically and reusing the same
during acceleration).
Powered by the NiMH
battery, the electric motor works in tandem with the gasoline engine to boost
acceleration during normal driving.
It can move the car entirely on
battery power at modest
acceleration during an initial launch from a stop or at other times under low torque demand and when slowing the car by regenerating electricity back into the 1.3 - kWh lithium - ion
battery.
Powered by the hybrid
battery, the electric motor works in tandem with the petrol engine to boost
acceleration during normal driving.
It could potential be used in electric vehicles in combination with a regular lithium - ion
battery to more efficiently capture the short bursts of electricity produced by regenerative braking, and to provide more instant - power
during hard
acceleration.
