The Study of Shift Quality of Hybrid Vehicles

하이브리드 차량의 변속 품질에 관한 연구

In this paper, several fields for improving shift quality and mode conversion quality are presented and considered. For a series type hybrid vehicle, improving mode conversion quality is important because it changes its speed with its own motors. A parallel type hybrid vehicle usually has AT or AMT, and its motor and engine can work independently. Therefore, improving both of two qualities is equally important in this case. For a power split type hybrid vehicle, improving mode conversion quality is more important due to the existence of planetary gears which change vehicle's speed.
