Abstract
A power management system and method for a work machine that receives real time data, computes current power requirements based on the real time data, computes an optimized engine speed based on the current power requirements and a desired reserve power, and informs an operator of the optimized engine speed. The system can predict upcoming power requirements based on real time and predictive machine data, and compute the optimized engine speed based on the current and upcoming power requirements and the desired reserve power. The system can also receive predictive data, and predict the upcoming power requirements based on the predictive and real time data. Predictive data can include topographical data and/or historical power-consumption data. The system can include an automatic mode where the system automatically adjusts engine speed to the optimized engine speed. The system can maintain a constant machine ground speed as it automatically adjusts engine speed.
