Active Torsional Vibration Suppression Strategy for Power-Split-HEV Driveline System Based on Dual-Loop Control

Power-split hybrid electric vehicles (power-split-HEVs) exhibit significant engine torque fluctuations due to their mechanical coupling with the driveline, leading to pronounced torsional vibration issues in the drive shaft. This study investigates an active torsional vibration suppression strategy based on drive motor control. First, a dynamic model of the power-split-HEV driveline is established, and its intrinsic characteristics are analyzed. Subsequently, an engine excitation torque model is developed to identify the dominant response orders, while a vehicle dynamics model is constructed to elucidate the torsional vibration mechanisms in both hybrid and pure electric driving modes. Next, a torsional vibration feedback control framework is proposed, utilizing the electric motor as a secondary-channel torque disturbance compensator. Furthermore, a novel frequency-decoupled dual-loop control framework is proposed, with rigorous derivation of the sufficient conditions for decoupling. Based on this framework, two distinct vibration suppression algorithms are developed for the secondary-loop controller, each tailored for specific operational modes. Finally, the proposed algorithms are validated through simulation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing. The results demonstrate a torque fluctuation suppression ratio of up to 72.2%, confirming that the active suppression algorithm effectively mitigates driveline torsional vibration induced by engine harmonic torque disturbances.
