Abstract
A method is provided for charging a vehicle (10) with high-voltage components (11) at a fast-charging station (20). The method includes ascertaining a prevailing noise level around the vehicle (10) while operating noise (21) produced by the vehicle (10) itself during charging is suppressed. The method continues by determining a volume of the operating noise (21) that is tolerable for the driver (22) and bystanders (23) depending on the noise level and a measured distance of a vehicle key (24) from the vehicle (10). The method proceeds by cooling the high-voltage components (11) of the vehicle (10) that are heated by charging so that the operating noise (21) caused by the cooling is limited to the tolerable volume.
Claims11
A method for charging a vehicle (10) with high-voltage components (11) at a fast-charging station (20), the method comprising:
- ascertaining a prevailing noise level around the vehicle (10) while suppressing operating noise (21) produced by the vehicle (10) during charging;
- determining a volume of the operating noise (21) that is tolerable for the driver (22) and bystanders (23) in view of the prevailing noise level and a measured distance of a vehicle key (24) from the vehicle (10);
- and
- cooling the high-voltage components (11) of the vehicle (10) heated by charging so that the operating noise (21) caused by the cooling is limited to the tolerable volume.
