The efficient utilization of energy stands as a paramount priority on the international stage. Currently, there are various issues associated with the multi-power source couplers in automobiles. Addressing concerns related to the large size, poor reliability, low durability, and inefficient energy conversion of these couplers, a novel Permanent Magnet Synchronous Mechatronic-Electro-Hydraulic Coupler (MEHC) has been proposed. This system integrates a traditional permanent magnet synchronous machine with a swash plate axial piston pump/motor, enabling the mutual conversion of electrical, mechanical, and hydraulic energy. This paper primarily investigates the losses and efficiency of MEHC in both pure electric motor mode and electro-hydraulic coupling mode. Compared to our group’s previous Induction Asynchronous Mechatronic-Electro-Hydraulic Coupler (IA-MEHC), MEHC demonstrates lower losses and higher torque. Additionally, the paper also computes the electrical power external characteristics and comprehensive power external characteristics of the MEHC in pure electric motor mode. In the calculations within this paper, electric power is the primary power source, and in the electro-hydraulic coupling mode, hydraulics only provide auxiliary assistance. The research outlined in this paper lays a robust groundwork for future advancements and innovations in MEHC technology. With the capacity to bolster its performance, efficiency, and reliability, this groundwork holds the promise of accelerating the rapid development and widespread adoption of MEHC in automotive applications.

Hydraulic hybrid technology can further improve the economy of electric vehicles (EV). This paper investigates a novel electro‐hydraulic power coupling vehicle (EHPCV), which is endowed with multiple drive modes and energy regenerative braking modes. The electric‐hydraulic power coupler (EHPC) is an innovative device for realizing power coupling and conversion in the powertrain. The design and optimization of energy management strategies (EMS) are key to ensuring the efficient and stable operation of hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). Based on the analysis of energy flow, a rule‐based energy management strategy (RB‐EMS) is built. To achieve more reasonable energy management of the EHPCV in random working environments, the article proposes an optimization framework for the EMS based on multiple driving cycles. More precisely, a multi‐objective optimization mathematical model is established with the goal of maximizing the battery state of charge (SOC) and minimizing speed error. Moreover, use the optimal Latin hypercube design (OLHD) to select the design variables that have a significant impact on the optimization objective. Definitively, the NSGA‐II algorithm combines with the RB‐EMS to optimize the control parameters. The verification results show that the optimized EMS enables the EHPCV to have greater economic advantages. The research achievements of this paper provide theoretical support and important reference for the energy management optimization of electric‐hydraulic hybrid vehicles (EHHV) in the future.This article is protected by copyright.
