Angepasste Hybridantriebe in mobilen Arbeitsmaschinen (off-highway Anwendungen) versprechen wegen der typischerweise auftretenden Lastzyklen mit ausgeprägten, häufigen und schnellen Laständerungen folgende Vorteile: geringerer Kraftstoffverbrauch, Einsatz eines Dieselmotors kleinerer Leistung, dadurch Erfüllung strikter werdender Emissionsvorschriften (TIER 4, EURO 5) ohne oder mit reduzierter Abgasnachbehandlung, Lärmreduktion, weitere Einsparpotenziale durch Elektrifizierung der Fahrzeugfunktionen möglich (Erhöhung des Hybridisierungsgrads), höhere Produktivität durch höhere Antriebsdynamik.
Hybrid drives for automotive application are extensively discussed. In contrast, the company HEINZMANN, the University of Karlsruhe and the University of Applied Sciences Offenburg concentrate on hybrid drives for industrial, offroad purposes in a joint project. These applications promise a much higher fuel saving potential, particularly if highly frequent load cycles are present. Hybrid drive systems offer additional advantages including reduced exhaust aftertreatment requirements due to engine downsizing, better engine dynamics, emissions and noise reduction.
Auxiliary power units (APUs) are used in mobile applications to supply electrical power in the range of 3 to 10 kW. The state of the art generators are driven by a diesel engine at constant speed. They have a low efficiency (high fuel consumption) as they operate mostly in partial load conditions. A higher efficiency for partial loads is feasible by adjusting the speed of the diesel engine to its optimum efficiency. A frequency converter provides a constant electric frequency at variable speed of the generator. The resulting higher investments for such a variable speed generator (VSG) need a proof of economics, which is demonstrated by this investigation.
