Abstract

This paper presents the development of a Kampung Laut (KL) river driving cycle for plug-in hybrid electric recreational boat (PHERB). A hybrid energy storage system between batteries and ultracapacitors are used in PHERB powertrain, which is effectively function together to enhance the driving performance and energy efficiency. The real world speed-time data for KL river driving cycle is collected using global positioning system. The route is selected based on daily traffic of KL river boat. The developed driving cycle consist of 1361 s, with a distance of 1.27 km, and an average speed and a maximum speed of 9.34 km/h and 34.30 km/h, respectively. The results obtained from this analysis are within reasonable range and satisfactory.
