The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing a fuel leak in a hybrid vehicle, and more particularly, to a method for enabling accurate diagnosis of fuel leakage in a fuel tank based on a fuel temperature value in the fuel tank and a change in fuel pressure according to the fuel temperature. will be.
In general, the hybrid vehicle refers to an electric vehicle that is driven by using either power according to the driving state of the vehicle by efficiently combining two or more different power sources.
In addition, a hybrid vehicle is usually driven by a drive motor using the power of the battery until the vehicle starts to reach a certain speed, and is driven by the engine power at a constant speed, and the engine and the battery power when accelerating at the maximum speed. It adopts the method of driving together.
Accordingly, by minimizing the use of fossil fuels such as gasoline or diesel, it is very helpful to improve fuel efficiency, and thus, it is possible to reduce the air pollution by minimizing the emission of exhaust gas. Recently, active researches have been made in developed countries as well. It is already mass produced and sold.
Even in the case of such a hybrid vehicle, the amount of fuel stored in the fuel tank will vary depending on the degree of volatility of the fuel, but as time passes, the evaporation gas is discharged by evaporation. In addition, pollution may occur due to the release of unburned gases.
Therefore, the hybrid vehicle has an evaporative gas control system for supplying the engine with the evaporated gas generated from the fuel tank, the evaporative gas control system is connected to the fuel tank, the fuel tank for storing the fuel of the vehicle, the fuel tank is connected to the fuel And an evaporation gas collector for collecting the evaporated gas generated in the tank, and a supply line for supplying the evaporated gas of the evaporative gas collector to the engine of the vehicle.
However, when leakage occurs in such an evaporative gas control system, pollution by the evaporated gas cannot be prevented, and thus, an automobile manufacturer has devised a method of detecting leakage of the evaporative gas control system.
