Electric and Hybrid Cars: Service and Repair Manuals (2/2)

Technologie des véhicules électriques et hybrides - principe de fonctionnement des systèmes hybrides

A technical book with an educational purpose that deals with electric and hybrid automobiles. Intended for professionals but also for individuals interested in this evolving field of electromobility, the 200 pages of this book, richly illustrated with explanatory diagrams, address the subject of electric and hybrid vehicles in its entirety.
This ranges from the operating principles of hybrid systems to high-voltage batteries, and the operation of thermal and electric engines to the precautions necessary for handling high-voltage systems, including information for the maintenance of this type of vehicle.

The book also puts in the reader's hands a theoretical study of the ten most representative brands on the market as well as the electrical diagrams of the most widely distributed electric or hybrid vehicles. Towards the end of the book, a chapter is entirely dedicated to French legislation on electric and hybrid vehicles.

To allow readers to assess their knowledge acquired through this manual, the authors of the book offer several multiple-choice questionnaires throughout the book.

Hybridfahrzeuge - Getriebetechnologie an Beispielen

This book presents the general principles of hybridization and its functions in a larger overall context. All the necessary principles are derived and developed that are necessary for understanding power-split concepts.

The focus here is not on the electrical machines or technical details of implemented hybrid drives, but on the system requirements and their principles. Derived from the requirements of a vehicle, the potential of using additional electrical machines and the possible uses of these components are shown.

Clear explanations can be found on:
- Basics of the drives
- Requirements of the vehicle
- Achievable benefits of hybridization
- Implemented overall concepts as examples

Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Werner Klement teaches design theory and transmission technology at the Faculty of Automotive Engineering at the Esslingen University of Applied Sciences. He is the dean of studies and head of the automotive engineering course.

Bosch Technische leergang - Hybride aandrijvingen, brandstofcellen en alternatieve brandstoffen

This first special edition in the Dutch "Technische Leergangen" series explains, among other things, how an increase in drive power with a simultaneous decrease in fuel consumption is possible when applying the hybrid concept. The hybrid drive concepts currently in use and under development with specific advantages and disadvantages are explained. The future, fully electric drive, with the fuel cell as energy source, is also discussed in detail.

In addition to alternative drive concepts, various concepts for the use of alternative fuels are also discussed and compared with each other.
Hybrid technology is a grateful subject in the media due to the increasing number of hybrid passenger cars on the road. This unique and first book on hybrid technology is an indispensable reference work for anyone who wants to know more about the latest drive concepts of today and the future.
