Abstract
The generator control device for vehicle is provided with a boost permission determination circuit capable of controlling the power generation rate, if there is communication between the engine control device and the generator control device for vehicle, the boost permission determination circuit performs the field current control so that the specified power generation rate is achieved by the communication, if there is no communication between the engine control device and the generator control device for vehicle, based on the rotation speed and temperature of the generator for vehicle, the boost permission determination circuit performs the field current control.
Claims7
A generator control system for vehicle, wherein
- a generator control device for vehicle performs different field current control when there is communication between the engine control device and the generator control device for vehicle and when there is no communication,
- a boost permission determination circuit controlling the power generation rate by controlling the field current is provided in the generator control device for vehicle, and when there is communication between the engine control device and the generator control device for vehicle, the field current control is performed by the boost permission determination circuit so as to limit the power generation rate to a power generation rate less than a maximum power generation rating so that the power generation rate does not increase to or more than a specified power generation rate by a power generation rate restriction instruction from the communication,
- a field current control is performed by the boost permission determination circuit based on the rotation speed and temperature of a generator for vehicle so that the limitation of the power generation rate is released and the power generation rate becomes a power generation rate larger than the limited power generation rate by a power generation rate restriction instruction from the communication when there is no communication between the engine control device and the generator control device for vehicle,
- the field current control is performed by the boost permission determination circuit so that the torque generated by the generator for vehicle does not become larger than the torque allowed by the engine when the generator for vehicle is applied to an engine system whose power generation rate is smaller than the current capacity of the generator for vehicle.
