System and method for managing an amount of stored energy in a powered system
First Claim
1. A system for managing an amount of stored energy in a powered system, said powered system configured to complete a mission from an initial stage to a final stage, said system comprising:
- a controller including a memory configured to store a plurality of handling stages;
wherein said controller is configured to determine the stored energy at said initial stage based upon said initial stage and a handling stage positioned between the initial stage and the final stage and selected from among the plurality of handling stages stored in memory;
said stored energy being necessary to propagate said powered system from the initial stage to the handling stage upon the occurrence of an anomaly in said powered system.

Abstract
A system is provided for managing an amount of stored energy in a powered system. The powered system is configured to complete a mission from an initial stage to a final stage. The system includes a controller including a memory configured to store a plurality of handling stages. The controller is configured to determine the stored energy at the initial stage based upon the initial stage and a handling stage positioned between the initial stage and the final stage, and selected from among the plurality of handling stages stored in memory. The stored energy is necessary to propagate the powered system from the initial stage to the handling stage upon the occurrence of an anomaly in the powered system. Additionally, a method and computer readable media are provided for managing an amount of stored energy in a powered system.

22. A method for managing a powered system, said powered system configured to complete a mission from an initial stage to a final stage, said method comprising:
-
monitoring the powered system for the occurrence of an anomaly in the powered system; and upon determining that an anomaly has occurred, propagating the powered system from the initial stage to a handling stage selected from among a plurality of handling stages stored in a memory, wherein the selected handling stage lies subsequent to the initial stage and up to and coincident with the final stage. - View Dependent Claims (23)

24. A system for managing an amount of stored energy in a powered system, said powered system configured to complete a mission from an initial stage to a final stage, said system comprising:
-
said powered system including a diesel internal combustion engine and a battery system for storing said stored energy; a controller including a memory configured to store a plurality of handling stages; wherein said controller is configured to determine the stored energy in the battery system at said initial stage based upon said initial stage and a handling stage positioned between the initial stage and the final stage and selected from among the plurality of handling stages stored in memory;
said stored energy being necessary to propagate said powered system from the initial stage to the handling stage upon the occurrence of an anomaly in said diesel internal combustion engine.
