Title:

Battery Electric Vehicles Network Equilibrium with Flow-Dependent Energy Consumption

Accession Number:

Record Type:

Component

Abstract:

Recent studies show that energy consumption of Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) increases in traffic congestion. Hence, it is important to consider the effect of link flow on BEV energy consumption. The flow-dependent energy consumption changes the route choice and user equilibrium conditions. In this paper, the inadequacies of available BEV flow-dependent energy consumption user equilibriums are first shown. Then, a new user equilibrium definition, based on the generalized travel time of each path and sub-path penalties, is defined and modeled as a nonlinear complementarity problem. Although this model can be solved by generating all paths for small to medium-sized networks, an iterative algorithm is presented to generate paths as required to solve the problem for larger networks. The Numerical example demonstrates the model and proposed algorithm, and analyze the impact of flow-dependent energy consumption on equilibrium conditions.
