Introduction Using HESS system in place of conventional Energy systems
Ultracapacitors are introduced in to the system, which act as a buffer that gives higher performance to Energy systems
Battery will only provide power directly whenever the Ultracapacitor voltage drops below battery voltage. Therefore, a relatively constant load profile is created for the battery also satisfying the real-time peak power demands
Battery is not used to directly harvest energy from the regenerative braking; thus, the battery is isolated from frequent charges, which will increase battery life.

Capacitors A capacitor is made up of two conductors separated by an insulator called
dielectric
The dielectric can be made of paper, plastic, mica, ceramic, glass, a vacuum or nearly any other nonconductive material
When a potential difference applied across the capacitor, electric field develops across the dielectric causing positive charge +Q to collect on one plate and negative charge −Q to collect on the other plate
ielectric constant or Permittivity of the mediumA = Area of the platesD = Distance between the plates
Ultracapacitors
Also called Supercapacitors or Double layer capacitors , Invented by engineers at Standard Oil of Ohio(SOHIO) in 1966
High-capacity electro chemical capacitor with capacitance value much higher than other capacitors that bridge the gap between electrolytic capacitors and rechargeable batteries
10 to 100 times more energy per unit volume than electrolytic capacitors Capacitance ranges up to 5000f! Principle:- Energy is stored in ultracapacitor by polarizing the electrolytic solution. The charges are separated via electrode–electrolyte interface Types EDLC(Electrochemical Double Layer), Pseudocapacitors and Hybrid capacitors 6
An ultracapacitor cell basically consists of two electrodes, a separator, and an electrolyte
As ,in order to increase the capacitance, need to change
A, Materials with highest specific surface area used for electrodes eg: Highly porous carbon , Activated carbon, Carbon nanotubes , graphite etc. D, The distance between the plates is in the order of angstroms(10-10 meters) Electrolytic solution with high conductivity and adequate electrochemical stability
Separator is to prevent the charges moving across the electrodes
The amount of energy stored is very large as compared to standard capacitor,the small charge separation created by the dielectric separator.

Advantages Long life: It works for large number of
cycles without wear and aging High power storage: It stores huge
amount of energy in a small volume Very high rates of charge and
discharge: Ultracapacitor charges within seconds whereas batteries takes hours
High cycle efficiency (95% or more)
Ultra capacitors are able to attain greater energy densities while still maintaining the characteristic high power density of conventional capacitors
Conventional capacitors have relatively high power densities, but relatively low energy densities when compared to batteries, while a battery have low power density and high energy density. Ultracapacitors have moderate energy density and power density

ESS(Energy Storage Systems)
Batteries are most widely used energy storage devices
The Toyota Prius, Honda Insight, and Ford Escape are examples of commercially available HEVs with efficiencies around 40 mi/gal in the market(old models).
12
Drawbacks Power density is low, incompatible to meet peak power demands
Batteries with higher power densities are of higher cost and large size Needs intensive thermal management systems, to cool it and also to warm
it up in cold temperatures
It cannot be used for high rate charge discharge operations, which causes unbalance of voltages between individual cells eventually the total capacity decreases
Vehicles in most driving conditions requires instantaneous power input and output, a conventional battery(with cycle life up to 2000times) is inappropriate for this application
in order to solve these problems HESS(Hybrid Energy Storage Systems) have been proposed.
13
HESS(Hybrid Energy Storage Systems) The basic idea of HESS is to combine UCs and batteries to achieve a
better overall performance
UCs having higher power density but a lower energy density act as a Buffer or an assistant energy source between battery and the DC link.
There are several conventional HESS configurations proposed , while Most of these combinations share one common feature which is to efficiently combine fast response devices with high power density and slow response components with high energy density.
14
Classifications and Topologies HESS can be classified in to PASSIVE and ACTIVE based on power electronic
convertors used in it PASSIVE: Battery pack is directly paralleled with the UC bank , battery voltage
always same as that of UC nominal voltage, battery must charge the UC and provide power to the load side
Passive cascaded battery/UC system 15
ACTIVE: * A DC-DC converter added between the battery pack and the UC bank
* The battery voltage is boosted to a higher level * Small sized battery can be employed, reduces cost * Battery can be more efficiently controlled and stress on battery gets reduced
Active cascaded battery/UC system16
Advantages The Active type topologies are more used The battery supplies average power to the load, and the UC delivers
instantaneous power charge and recovers fast charging from regenerative braking
Drawbacks Battery can not directly charged by breaking energy or by UC due to
unidirectional boost converter Therefore parallel and multi input topologies were used
17
Parallel active battery/UC system Multiple-input battery/UC system
18
Parallel active battery/UC system Battery and UC are at a Low voltage than DC link Voltage When the Drive train Demands power, The voltage on the battery and UC will level up Supplies power, The voltages are stepped down for recharge
Multiple-input battery/UC system BOOST mode: When input sources supply energy BUCK mode : When recovering braking energy Only one inductor is needed even if more inputs are added

Design&
Working
DESIGN TOPOLOGIES Design focus on which topology is uses, the basic design considerations include
Voltage strategy Both battery and UC have different voltages of operation
The demand of balancing the system increases with high voltage capacity of the system
A better matched system can be build with a bigger batch of cells ,which in turn increases the cost
Therefore a voltage tradeoff between storage elements by considering that UC are more easier to balance( lower additional cost)
21
Effective utilization of stored energy In battery system, the energy delivered is not a function of voltage , but in
HESS energy delivered is a function of voltage because UC obeys law of standard capacitors
Voltage of UC needs to be discharged to half of original voltage in order to
deliver 75% of energy stored If Vuc<Vbatt=Vdc, 100% energy will deliver theoretically but not practically
because of presence of unbalanced cells A 66% reduction in UC voltage considered to discharge 90% of stored
energy, in passive systems which is further limited to 20% But a margin need to be allowed for UC to operate in Regenerative Braking
Conditions ,therefore actual energy discharged limited to a nominal 36%22
Protection from overcurrent Design consideration is to fully utilize the higher power limit of UC to support
accilaration and fully recover energy through regenerative breaking
But there is current surges due to unpredictable Regenerative breaking
Solution is to give a charging and discharging limits to the controller
Mechanical braking is used to absorb extra energy
Trade off between energy and securityCost control
Uc adds extra costs 23

Conclusion In this seminar, a new HESS design has been proposed. Compared to
the conventional HESS, the new design is able to fully utilize the power capability of the UCs

Future work related to this design will focus on the analysis of the
system efficiency in the high-voltage conditions
