Research on Using PSO Algorithm to optimize Controlling of Regenerative Braking Force Distribution in Automobile

This study will analyze the optimization algorithms used in the optimization control of regenerative braking force distribution in automobile. Through these analyses, the PSO algorithm has been used to control the regenerative braking force distribution and mechanical braking force with a multi-objective function that is to maximize recovered energy and ensure braking stability. The simulation calculations are performed by MathLAB based on Toyota Hiace parameters with the traditional powertrain. Research results show that the fuel consumption rate of vehicles equipped energy recovery system after optimization can be improved from 10.49% to 24.44% depending on different driving cycles.
