The invention relates to a power system for a transport refrigeration unit. A power system for a transport refrigeration unit of a vehicle and a method of powering a transport refrigeration unit of a vehicle are described. A power system for a transport refrigeration unit of a vehicle includes a battery unit configured to supply electrical power to a refrigeration system of the transport refrigeration unit; a generator configured to charge the battery unit; an engine configured to drive the generator; and a control system. The control system is configured to: receive or determine a vehicle route from a current location of the vehicle to a destination of the vehicle; predicting how the power level of the battery cell will change over the vehicle route; and controlling an operating state of the engine based on the vehicle route and the predicted power level. In this manner, fuel may be preserved by operating the engine only when needed, and thus the cost of transporting refrigerated goods may be reduced.
本发明涉及一种用于运输制冷单元的功率系统,具体地描述了一种用于车辆的运输制冷单元的功率系统和为车辆的运输制冷单元提供功率的方法。用于车辆的运输制冷单元的功率系统包括:电池单元,其构造成向运输制冷单元的制冷系统供应电功率;发电机,其构造成为电池单元充电;发动机,其构造成驱动发电机;和控制系统。控制系统配置成:接收或确定从车辆的当前位置到车辆的目的地的车辆路线;预测电池单元的功率水平将如何在车辆路线上变化;以及基于车辆路线和预测功率水平来控制发动机的运行状态。以这种方式,通过仅在需要时运行发动机,可保存燃料,并且因此可降低运输冷藏货物的成本。
