Hybrid Electric Power train Design for High-Performance Automotive Applications

Abstract

The demand for high-performance vehicles that balance power and efficiency has led to significant advancements in hybrid electric powertrain design. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of hybrid electric powertrain configurations tailored for high-performance automotive applications. By integrating internal combustion engines with electric propulsion systems, the proposed designs aim to optimize performance, reduce emissions, and enhance fuel efficiency. The study explores various powertrain architectures, including series, parallel, and series-parallel hybrids, and evaluates their impact on vehicle dynamics and operational characteristics. Key parameters such as energy management strategies, component sizing, and system integration are examined to determine their influence on overall performance metrics. Through simulation and modeling, we demonstrate the potential of hybrid powertrains to achieve superior acceleration, improved handling, and extended driving range. The findings indicate that well-designed hybrid systems can meet the demands of performance-oriented consumers while contributing to sustainability goals. This research serves as a foundation for future innovations in hybrid electric powertrains, paving the way for the next generation of high-performance vehicles.
