This paper examines the role of the powertrain control system in optimising a hybrid electric vehicle powertrain for minimum fuel consumption and investigates the practicality of implementing a dynamic control strategy in a real world automotive controller. A hardware in the loop test bench is used to run a locally optimised cost function in an automotive controller and the results are compared with those obtained from desktop simulation. The results from the hardware in the loop tests correlate to within 0.9% with desktop simulation and show that implementing a locally optimised cost function in an automotive controller is a practical proposition.
