Description
The present invention relates to a freeze prevention device for a mild hybrid vehicle and a freeze prevention method using the same.
A hybrid vehicle is an automobile that uses two or more different kinds of power sources, and generally means a vehicle driven by an engine that obtains a driving force by burning fuel and a motor that obtains a driving force by battery power.
Hybrid vehicles are classified into parallel type, series type and hybrid type according to the driving type and classified into the mild, middle and hard types according to the power sharing ratio between the engine and the motor.
Mild hybrid vehicles use less capacity batteries and motors than ordinary hard-type hybrid vehicles. In other words, a mild hybrid vehicle is equipped with a Mild Hybrid Starter and Generator (MHSG) instead of an alternator, a 12V battery, an additional 48V battery and a low voltage DC-DC converter (LDC).
Accordingly, the mild hybrid vehicle does not have a traveling mode in which the vehicle is driven by only the motor as a power source, but the MHSG can assist the engine torque according to the traveling state and charge the battery through regenerative braking. Therefore, the fuel efficiency of the vehicle can be improved and efficient energy utilization is possible.
In a conventional hybrid vehicle, the motor is used as an output power source by integrating the roles of a starter and a generator into one. That is, the conventional motor serves as a starter for operating the engine to smoothly start the engine and as a generator for charging electricity into the battery according to the operation of the engine.
Conventionally, only the operation of the motor is important, and instead of performing precise control, the engine is operated to a desired extent in a wide operating range to provide an auxiliary output of the engine. However, in mild hybrid vehicles, precise control of the MHSG is directly related to driving performance and merchantability.
Particularly, in the winter, there is a problem that malfunction occurs due to forcible operation when the main operating part of the MHSG and the belt is frozen, or main parts are damaged.
The matters described in the background section are intended to enhance the understanding of the background of the invention and may include matters not previously known to those skilled in the art.
The present invention proposes a freeze prevention apparatus for a mild hybrid vehicle and a freeze prevention method using the same, which can control whether the mild hybrid start-up generator (MHSG) is frozen or not.
A method for preventing freezing of a mild hybrid start-up generator in a mild hybrid vehicle including an engine and a mild hybrid start-up generator (MHSG) connected to the engine to assist the output, Comparing at least one of an outside air temperature and a cooling water temperature with a reference value if the ignition is on, comparing the at least one of the outside air temperature and the cooling water temperature with a reference value, and if the outside air temperature or the cooling water temperature is lower than a reference value And determining whether the mild hybrid start-up generator is frozen.
The comparing with the reference value may include comparing the outside air temperature to a first reference value, and comparing the cooling water temperature to a second reference value.
Wherein the step of determining whether the freezing state is frozen is performed by applying an operation signal to the mild hybrid start-up generator when the outside air temperature is lower than a first reference value and the cooling water temperature is lower than a second reference value, And determining whether the mild hybrid start-up generator is frozen by detecting the speed.
Comparing the battery voltage with a third reference value, and when the battery voltage is higher than the third reference value, heating the mild hybrid start-up generator.
The step of heating may include applying a voltage lower than the operating voltage of the mild hybrid start-up generator to the mild hybrid start-up generator.
The freeze prevention device of the mild hybrid vehicle of the present invention includes XXXXX.

The control unit may include a freeze determination unit for applying an operation signal to the mild hybrid start-up generator and detecting the rotational speed of the mild hybrid start-up generator to determine whether the mild hybrid start-up generator is frozen.
The freeze determination unit may determine whether the mild hybrid start-up generator is frozen when the outside air temperature is lower than a first reference value and the cooling water temperature is lower than a second reference value.
