Development and Use of Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle Model with Suitable Modifications and Break-even Analysis

Conventional Models of Series and Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicles have been compared in terms of efficiency and mechanism employed. The common disadvantage of battery discharging in plug-in HEV during long trips has been dealt with by giving three suitable modifications. The increase in mileage has been depicted using calculations. A break-even analysis of slightly expensive modified HEV with percentage improvements in mileage and decrease in fuel costs has been shown
