Method for managing a hybrid power train of a motor vehicle
A method manages a power train of a motor vehicle including a heat engine and an electric motor electrically linked to a power battery. The method includes controlling a heating system for heating the power battery according to at least one measurement of a temperature representative of an operation of the heat engine.
1. A method for managing a power train of a motor vehicle including a heat engine and an electric motor electrically linked to a power battery, the method comprising:
controlling a heating system of the power battery based on at least one measurement of a temperature representative of an operation of the heat engine, the controlling includes synchronizing a temperature rise of the power battery with a temperature rise of the heat engine such that a first optimal operating temperature associated with the heat engine and a second optimal operating temperature associated with the power battery are reached at a same time.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first optimal operating temperature is lower than the second optimal operating temperature.
3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
generating a setpoint temperature for each measurement of the temperature representative of the operation of the heat engine, wherein the controlling the heating system includes activating the heating system to make a real temperature of the power battery tend toward the generated setpoint temperature.
4. The method as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the controlling includes measuring a current temperature of the power battery and determining a heating power of the heating system to be applied based on the generated setpoint temperature and the measured current temperature of the power battery.
5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each measurement of the temperature representative of the operation of the heat engine includes measuring a temperature of coolant of the heat engine.
6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the controlling the heating system includes taking calories from a member of the motor vehicle producing heat because of the operation of the heat engine and restoring at least a part of calories taken to the power battery.
7. The method as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the taking calories and the restoring the at least the part of the calories use a thermal coupling element linking the member of the motor vehicle producing heat to the power battery.
8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the controlling the heating system includes charging or discharging the power battery to provoke, by Joule effect, reheating thereof.
9. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the controlling the heating system includes activating resistive means internal to the power battery.
