Outline
• About this talk, introduction• Prius PSD• Quantifying “fuel efficiency”• Look at some real data from driving &
charging

Introduction - Terminology
• Hybrid – motive force drawn from an electric motor, internal combustion engine, or both. All vehicle energy derived from combustion of gasoline, but energy may be stored & retrieved in battery pack(s).
• Plug-in hybrid – Like regular hybrid, but also allows battery to be charged from external source, thus reducing total gasoline usage.

Introduction - Terminology
• Electric Vehicle – motive force drawn exclusively from an electric motor, with energy supplied from a battery pack, charged from an external source.

Introduction - Hybrids
• Parallel Hybrid – either internal combustion engine or electric motor may physically connect to & drive wheels
• Series Hybrid – only electric motor may physically drive the wheels, but internal combustion engine can power a generator to provide electricity to the electric motor

Examples
• Hybrid – Toyota Prius• Plug-in Hybrid – Chevy Volt (and some
Prius conversions)• Electric Vehicle – Tesla, Nissan Leaf

Prius vs. Volt

Planetary Gear Math
• Sun gear, Planet carrier, Ring gear• http://eahart.com/prius/psd/
• Relationship between speed of various inputs/ outputs of PSD?– With ICE=0, MG1 & MG2 speeds
proportional, specifically – With ICE=1011, – With ICE=2022, – With ICE=3033,

Planetary Gear Math
• Relationship between speed of various inputs/ outputs of PSD?– So it appears that
• Furthermore, speed and MG2 proportional:
• So also, • Note, if , implies

Quantifying Efficiency
• Which is better fuel savings?– Increase from 10 to 15 mpg?– Increase from 30 to 35 mpg?
• “MPG” illusion – from an EPA publication: “While a miles per gallon (MPG) estimate is a required feature that has appeared on the fuel economy label for several decades, this metric can be potentially misleading when consumers compare fuel economy improvements, particularly when they use it in place of fuel costs.”
![Page 12: Electric Vehicle Mathematics](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062414/5681632c550346895dd3a688/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
MPG illusion
“This ‘MPG illusion’ demonstrates why it may be more meaningful to express fuel efficiency in terms of consumption (e.g., gallons per mile or per 100 miles) rather than in terms of economy (miles per gallon).”

New Monroney Labels
What about other engine technologies?
GPHM (gallons per hundred miles) is now also reported

Chevy Volt

Nissan Leaf

MPGe, kWh
• MPGe: “Miles per Gallon-equivalent” – “Equivalent” MPG if energy were derived solely from gasoline instead (using 33.7kWh per 1 gallon of gasoline)
• kWh – kilowatt-hour – measure of energy: delivery of 1 kW of power for 1 hour

Charging
• 5580 Wh delivered from charger• After 13 mile trip, 430 Wh/mile• (Does not account for charger efficiency,
probably about 80%)

Driving
• 4.5 mile trip• Total Ah delivered from batteries: 10.7• Assuming 145V average, 1550 Wh• So, average 345 Wh/mile

Additional Calculations
• Rounding to 500Wh/mile:
• At 12 cents per kWh of electricity:
• Contrast with a typical car:
