Drive Train, Pertaining Operating Method and Motor Vehicle
Method is disclosed for operating a drive train having an electric machine and an internal-combustion engine with a supercharger having at least one additional electric machine for the optional drive of a power transmission. An optimal operating point of the at least one additional electric machine is selected as a function of the definable operating point of the internal-combustion engine such that the electric energy flowing during the operation of the at least one additional electric machine at the optimal operating point flows between electric machines without any detouring.
1 . Drive train, comprising an electric machine and an internal-combustion engine having a supercharger with at least one additional electric machine, for optional connection with a power transmission, and a control device configured so as to adjust, as a function of an operating point of the internal combustion engine, a respective optimal operating point of the at least one additional electric machine whereby the electric energy flowing during operation of the at least one additional electric machine at the optimal operating point flows between or among all the electric machines without any detouring.
2 . Drive train according to claim 1 , wherein the first-mentioned electric machine is a motor-generator unit for alternative and cumulative power transmission drive.
3 . Drive train according to claim 1 , wherein one of the at least one additional electric machine of the supercharger is an electric motor for operation of a compressor or of a compressor side of an internal-combustion engine turbocharger.
4 . Drive train according to claim 3 , wherein one of the at least one additional electric machine of the supercharger is an electric motor for operation of a compressor or of a compressor side of an internal-combustion engine turbocharger.
5 . Drive train according to claim 3 , wherein another of the at least one additional electric machine of the supercharger of the internal-combustion engine is a generator, driven by an exhaust gas flow turbine or by a turbocharger turbine.
6 . Drive train according to claim 1 , wherein the internal-combustion engine has no throttle valve and has at least one electric machine for regulating the air quantity to be fed thereto.
7 . Drive train according to claim 1 , wherein the electric machines are electric synchronous machines.
8 . Drive train according to claim 1 , wherein at least one bypass is provided in the case of the supercharger.
9 . Motor vehicle having a drive comprising an electric machine and an internal-combustion engine having a supercharger with at least one additional electric machine for optional connection with a power transmission, and a control device configured so as to adjust, as a function of an operating point of the internal-combustion engine, a respective optimal operating point of the at least one additional electric machine whereby the electric energy flowing during operation of the at least additional electric machine at the optimal operating point flows between or among all the electric machines without any detouring.
10 . Method for operating a drive train having drive train has an electric machine and an internal-combustion engine with a supercharger having at least one additional electric machine for the optional drive of a power transmission, comprising selecting, an optimal operating point of the at least one additional electric machine as a function of a definable operating point of the internal-combustion engine, such that the electric energy flowing during the operation of the at least one additional electric machine at the optimal operating point flows between electric machine (without any detouring.
11 . Method according to claim 10 , further comprising providing a control intervention at the internal-combustion engine to ensure an optimal operating point of the electric machines.
