    摘要: A maximum dischargeable current Idmax obtained when electric power output from a battery is increased from a battery current Ib and a battery voltage Vb at present under internal resistance R at present (an operating point 510) until the battery voltage reaches a lower limit voltage Ve (an operating point 520), is shown as follows: Idmax=Ib+(Vb−Ve)/R. Therefore, in accordance with multiplication of the lower limit voltage Ve and the maximum dischargeable current Idmax, it is possible to predict maximum dischargeable electric power at which the battery voltage does not become lower than the lower limit voltage even if discharge limitation is temporarily relaxed, as a relative value with respect to the battery voltage and the battery current at present. When the discharge electric power limitation for the battery (the power storage device) is temporarily relaxed in accordance with a discharge request made by a load, a discharge electric power permissible value is set to correspond to the maximum dischargeable electric power, such that the output voltage of the power storage device does not fall outside a controlled voltage range from the lower limit voltage to an upper limit voltage.

    摘要: When a drive power demand Pv* is greater than 0, the control procedure of the invention sets the greater between an engine speed demand Nereq and a lower engine speed limit Nemin to a target rotation speed Ne* of an engine (step S160). The engine speed demand Nereq represents a rotation speed of the engine at a specific drive point that ensures efficient output of an engine power demand Pe*. The lower engine speed limit Nemin represents a rotation speed of the engine at another specific drive point for a constant-speed drive of a hybrid vehicle at a current vehicle speed V. When the drive power demand Pv* is equal to 0, the control procedure of the invention cuts fuel supply to the engine and sets the lower engine speed limit Nemin to the target rotation speed Ne* of the engine (step S190). The engine is accordingly driven at the rotation speed of not lower than the lower engine speed limit Nemin and has a quick response to a demand for output power increase from the engine. This arrangement desirably reduces the loading of a battery and prevents premature deterioration of the battery.

    摘要: For the measurement of the voltage of each block which constitutes a battery pack with different timings, a voltage (V) and current (I) every block the current of which is measured at the same timing as the voltage is measured are read (S100-S108) and an inner resistance (R) is derived from the temperature (T) of the assembled battery (S110, S112). A value of the difference (IN−IN+1) of two currents corresponding to two voltages of respective blocks of a plurality of battery blocks multiplied by the inner resistance (R) of the battery pack is added to the difference (VN−VN+1) of two voltages to calculate the voltage difference ΔV (S116). When the maximum value ΔVmax of the calculated voltage difference ΔV exceeds the threshold value Vref, the state is judged to be an overdischarge (S122, S124, S128).

    摘要: A device and method is provided that can detect overcharge reliably by separating heat generated by internal resistance and heat chemically generated upon overcharging in a secondary battery. Based on the temperature of the secondary battery detected every first predetermined time by a battery temperature detection section, a temperature gradient operation section calculates a temperature gradient indicating a temperature increase per unit time for every second predetermined time that is longer than the first predetermined time. When a temperature gradient determination section determines that the temperature gradient is larger than a predetermined temperature gradient threshold, which is preset according to the charged state of the secondary battery, N times in a row (where N is a natural number), a fully charged state of the secondary battery is detected.

    摘要: Means for estimating the charged state of a battery, capable of accurately estimating an SOC even though the battery repeats charging/discharging in short cycles. The charging/discharging current Ib measured by current sensing means (10) is integrated, and pseudo-SOC estimating means estimates a pseudo-SOC. Electromotive force estimating means (16) estimates the open voltage Voc from the pseudo-SOC. Voltage change estimating means (18) estimates the voltage change Vr due to the internal resistance from the charging/discharging current Ib. Dynamic voltage change estimating means (20) estimates the voltage change Vdyn due to the change of the charging/discharging current. An adder (22) adds the Voc, Vr, and Vdyn to calculate an estimated voltage Vest of the battery. SOC correction calculating means (26) calculates the correction of the SOC for equalizing the estimated voltage Vest to the measured voltage Vmes measured by voltage sensing means (12), and an adder (28) adds the correction to the pseudo-SOC to estimate the SOC of the battery.
