As basic research to develop HEV and EV agricultural field machinery, the present study analyzes the technical trend of electric agricultural field machinery through product analysis, paper analysis, and patent analysis concerning HEV and EV in the automobile, construction machinery, and agricultural machinery sectors. For product analysis, the homepages of companies in these sectors were consulted to analyze the number of products of each company. For paper analysis, key words related to HEV and EV were selected, a search formula was drawn up, and articles search sites were consulted. And for patent analysis too, key words were selected and then a search formula was drawn up to examine published patent applications or registered patent applications, and trends were analyzed by structure, country, and year. The number of HEV and EV products were 17 in the automobile area, 8 in construction machinery, and 4 in agricultural machinery. Notably, in the agricultural machinery area, all HEV and EV products were from advanced companies overseas. In terms of papers, papers published in the past 5 years were searched and 33,195 papers were from the automobile area, 3,806 were from construction machinery, and 2,687, the fewest papers, were from the agricultural machinery area. A search of patents in the electric drive technology area in Korea, USA, and Japan, and Europe showed 1,927 valid patents, with 1,120 in Japan, 497 in USA, 193 in Korea, and 117 in Europe. Analysis of the trend of research on electric agricultural field machinery by product, paper, and patent shows the development of HEV and EV technology in Korea is insufficient compared to USA, Japan, and Europe, which means rapid technological development is needed.

This paper studied performance characteristics of hybrid automotive to replace existing fossil fuel vehicles. Specially, about power split type HEV that is T-HEV's drive system when a vehicle drives at steady speed, monitored both output of each engine, motor and generator and battery SOC (state of charge) and analyzed performance characteristic of power transmission system and electricity power parts. This study shows those that acquired and analyzed information from signals between HCU and each controller of actual T- vehicle. From this study, it is confirmed that each conditions of EV and HEV drive can be a improvement with respect to the fuel efficiency of vehicles.

The performance and life-cycle costs of electric vehicle(EV) and hybrid electric vehicle(HEV) depend inherently on battery packs. Temperature uniformity in a pack is an important factor for obtaining optimum performance for an EV or HEV battery pack, because uneven temperature distribution in a pack leads to electrically unbalanced battery cells and reduced pack performance. In this work, a three-dimensional modeling was carried out to investigate the effects of operating conditions on the thermal behavior of a lithium-ion battery pack for an EV or HEV application. Thermal conductivities of various compartments of the battery were estimated based on the equivalent network of parallel/series thermal resistances of battery components. Heat generation rate in a cell was calculated using the modeling results of the potential and current density distributions of a battery cell.

This paper presents the characteristic of newly developed electrical steel and motor performance analysis for HEV/EV. This material is developed and optimized for high frequency operation to reduce the core losses in traction motors to increase fuel efficiency. Four types of electrical steel are introduced, which are optimized for high flux density (PNHF), high frequency low core loss (PNF), high punchability (PNS) and high strength (PNT) to meet different specifications from different types of traction motors. To identify the motor performance with this material, finite element analysis was used to calculate core loss as well as Ld and Lq for efficiency map. Also structure analysis was performed to calculate stress on bridge rotor.

The performance of the Electric Vehicle and Hybrid Electric Vehicle depends on that of the battery pack composed of series connected batteries. And thermal property is one of the main factors which decide the performance of the battery pack. So heat generation rate from the battery under the various driving mode must be measured as precise as possible because thermal characteristics of the battery affect the driving performance and battery pack's life cycle. Besides, to design and develop the battery thermal management system for the EV and HEV, the measurements of the thermal properties of the batteries are needed. However, the established calorimeter is not adequate to test an EV's battery because its cavity is too small to accommodate the EV's battery. Therefore we developed the calorimeter to test the thermal property of the EV's battery. Its cavity size is 120mm long, 75mm wide and 200mm high. The calorimeter is calibrated by the dummy cell which generates the heat rate from zero to 200W. The measuring accuracy of the calorimeter is within $2\%$ and its voltage stability is 2.5mV in the constant temperature bath.

Electric vehicles (EV) and hybrid EVs (HEV) are designed and manufactured by GM, Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai motors. The propulsion system design process for EV requires integrating subsystem designs into an overall system model to maximize the performance of a given propulsion architecture. Therefore, high-power density and high-torque density are important attributes required for EV applications. To improve torque and power density, propulsion motors are designed for saturation during high-torque operation. The nonlinearity associated with core saturation is modeled by incorporating the cross-coupling inductances, which also behave nonlinearly. Furthermore, in EV environments, the battery is directly connected to the DC link, and the battery changes depending on the state of charge. It will be onerous if as many optimal current commands as different $V_{dc}$ were made. This paper presents the optimal current commands in the various operating condition and the current control technique in EV environments.
