Optimizing hybrid drive consumption, especially for motor vehicle, involves turning off at least one cylinder of internal combustion engine in partial load range; change in engine power can be at least partly compensated by electric motor

摘要

The hybrid drive has an internal combustion engine with several cylinders and at least one electric motor operated in parallel. The method involves turning off at least one cylinder of the internal combustion engine in a partial load range, whereby the change in internal combustion engine power and/or the power requirement of the internal combustion engine can be at least partly compensated by the electric motor.
