Feasibility Study of a Heavy-duty Tractor - Motorized Semi-trailer Hybrid Electric Combination
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">The objective of this study was to evaluate the concept of a heavy-duty tractor - motorized semi-trailer hybrid electric combination, which would have electric drive axles on the semi-trailer.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">The scope of the project included an analysis of the general concept of a power-driven semi-trailer, the positioning of the concept of the heavy-duty tractor - motorized semi-trailer hybrid electric combination in the general context of the technology, and the evaluation of the applicability of the concept for different duty cycles.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">Several transport activities were analyzed to determine specific duty cycles for heavy-duty vehicles: highway line haul and regional haul, construction haul, and off-highway hauling of raw materials, such as forestry transport with Class 8 and off-highway tractor-trailer combinations.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">The concept of a heavy-duty tractor - motorized semi-trailer hybrid electric combination was compared with a corresponding conventional combination (conventional tractor and semi-trailer), and with a combination of a parallel hybrid electric tractor with a conventional semi-trailer. PSAT simulations were conducted to evaluate the fuel efficiency and the influence on traction and stability was evaluated for each representative duty-cycle.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">The simulation results generally predict comparable fuel efficiencies for the heavy-duty tractor - motorized semi-trailer hybrid electric combination, and the correspondent parallel hybrid electric tractor with conventional semi-trailer combination. Depending on the duty-cycle, both hybrid versions would offer substantial fuel savings when compared to the conventional tractor-semi-trailer combination, such as up to 30% for off-highway hauling of raw materials.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">The analysis of traction performances showed evident gains both in tractive force and gradeability for the motorized semi-trailer. Moreover, the use of motorized axles on the semi-trailer would improve the longitudinal stability of the vehicle combination by decreasing the potential for sliding, especially in off-highway conditions.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">The evaluation of the impact on greenhouse gas emissions shows that the electric motorized semi-trailer concept would offer important annual reductions for all the analyzed transport activities, with generally attractive payback periods. Exemplifying for the off-highway hauling of raw materials using off-highway vehicles, GHG emissions reduction would be up to 108 tons/year per vehicle combination, with a payback period as low as 18 months, which is explained by very important quantitative fuel savings coupled with a relatively moderate increase in vehicle purchase costs. However, for highway and regional haul, the relative increase of the semi-trailer cost by a factor of three would make the concept unattractive.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">The concept of a heavy-duty tractor - motorized semi-trailer hybrid electric combination would offer the best dynamic, environmental, and economical advantages when implemented for off-highway transport of raw materials, such as forestry or mining transport, for which the relative cost increases are acceptable and payback periods are relatively short.</div></div>
