Abstract
An ECU executes a program including: a step of setting a threshold β as a shutdown threshold when, during a power supply operation, a duration of a power supply stoppage exceeds a first time; a step of stopping an operation of an engine or prohibiting the engine from operating; and a step of executing system shutdown processing when an SOC of a storage apparatus falls to or below the shutdown threshold or the duration of the power supply stoppage exceeds a second time.
Claims6
A vehicle comprising:
- an engine;
- an auxiliary system;
- a storage apparatus capable of supplying power to a power supply subject outside the vehicle;
- a power generation apparatus configure to supply power to the power supply subject using the engine as a power source;
- and
- an electronic control unit configured to operate the engine during a power supply operation in which power is supplied to the power supply subject from at least one of the power generation apparatus and the storage apparatus, the electronic control unit being configured to stop the engine when a duration of time in which a power supply is smaller than a predetermined value exceeds a first time, and the power supply being the power supplied to the power supply subject during the power supply operation, and the electronic control unit being configured to stop the auxiliary system of the vehicle that is activated during the power supply operation when the duration of time exceeds a second time, and the second time being longer than the first time.
A control method for a vehicle including an engine, an auxiliary system, a storage apparatus, a power generation apparatus, and an electronic control unit, the control method comprising:
- operating, by the electronic control unit, the engine during a power supply operation in which power is supplied to a power supply subject outside the vehicle from at least one of the power generation apparatus and the storage apparatus, the power generation apparatus supplying power to the power supply subject using the engine as a power source, and the storage apparatus supplying power to the power supply subject,
- stopping, by the electronic control unit, an operation of the engine when a duration of time in which a power supply is smaller than a predetermined value exceeds a first time, the power supply being the power supplied to the power supply subject during the power supply operation;
- and
- stopping, by the electronic control unit, the auxiliary system of the vehicle that is activated during the power supply operation when the duration of time exceeds a second time, wherein the second time is longer than the first time.
