Title: Driving strategy for minimal energy consumption of an ultra-energy-efficient vehicle in Shell Eco-marathon competition
Keywords: Ultra-energy-efficient vehicle, energy consumption, driving

Abstract: The paper focuses on the different driving strategies (driving cycles) for minimisation of the energy consumption of an ultra-energy-efficient electric vehicle developed by students for Shell Eco-marathon competition. The vehicle runs on hydrogen fuel and completes a set track with a 1420 m length and zero vertical deviation which is used for the 2019 European edition of the contest. A dynamic simulation model of the vehicle is developed taking into account vehicle resistance forces. A simplified model of the propulsion system is also described and used in the simulation. The propulsion system consists of a hydrogen fuel cell with a 1 kW rated power output, electric motors, electric converters, motor controllers and transmission. Furthermore, a strategy overview is proposed by which the vehicle complies with all necessary strategy limitations deriving from the competition rules.
