Does the 48V Mild Hybrid System Need to Be Charged?
2 Answers
The 48V mild hybrid system does not require separate charging for the battery, as the generator or motor can charge the battery. Here is an introduction to the 48V mild hybrid system: 1. When the vehicle does not require high power from the engine, part of the engine's power is used to generate electricity and stored in the battery. 2. The kinetic energy reduced during vehicle deceleration and braking is also converted into electrical energy and stored in the battery by the system. 3. The electrical energy stored in the battery is fully utilized as driving force during vehicle operation, reducing fuel consumption while enhancing power. 4. The engine can automatically charge when using fuel. Since the fuel cost consumed by fuel-engine-guided charging is higher than that of direct charging, and the charging time is far from sufficient, it is necessary to regularly supplement the battery to ensure the normal use of electric power.
As a car enthusiast who often tinkers with vehicles, I must say the 48V mild hybrid system is truly intelligent. It's equipped with a small battery, either lithium or improved lead-acid type, designed with remarkable ingenuity. While driving, every time you brake or decelerate, the vehicle converts kinetic energy into electrical energy through regenerative braking technology, automatically charging the battery; simultaneously, the engine also assists in supplementary charging during operation. Therefore, there's absolutely no need to plug into charging stations like with plug-in hybrids. This system offers excellent fuel-saving effects, improving fuel efficiency by 10% to 15%, reducing emissions without adding hassle. I've disassembled parts from several cars and seen how the entire circuit integrates seamlessly—once set up, it maintains charge automatically during driving. New car owners might worry, but after driving for a while, you'll find it incredibly reliable. As long as you drive normally, the battery will stay in optimal condition.
