Rich Rudman of manzanitamicro, Ryan, and PriusBlue, are working on a Prius PHEV implementation using an upgraded PFC-30 as a DC-DC converter and charger, and Rich is hoping to develop and offer conversion kits. Find out more about the PiPrius conversion process.

Logs

CAN-View Logs from Initial PHEV Test & Tune runs:

Cap0040-41, 11 miles >99.9mpg
Cap0060, 28 miles 78.5mpg

Current CAN-View Relay settings:

RL2: on <69 off >70%SOC & on >70 off <70Acl
RL3: unused
RL4: OEM/PHEV selected & >40Acl & Bat <105degF
RL5: unused
RL6: on <74 off >74%SOC & on >50 off <45mph
RL2 (Low) and RL6 (High) speed SOC driven relays are connected in parallel to trigger the PFC to enter NiMH High Voltage setpoint (239V), otherwise PFC is in NiMH Low Voltage setpoint (227v).

Added LowBatReg, a single MarkIII regulator which communicates with PFC to lower current levels in order to keep known lowest PbA battery above 10.0v. Eventually all batteries will have such regulators protecting each from over and under voltage events. Regs will also enhance the ability to equalize the pack and charge safely without manual monitoring.

Restored OEM cooling system to original state, finished testing degraded OEM cooling.


Each .zip file contains a main description .txt file similar to the comments which describe it. There are also multiple CAN-View Capture "raw" .txt files and their resultant .csv files. Each capture file is described with dash miles-mpg|CAN-View Trip screen miles-mpg|CAN-View Ah Count down from 10Ah, a description of the trip, and the amount of recharge.
