본 발명은 내연기관의 엔진과 배터리의 전원을 이용한 모터를 동력원으로 사용하는 하이브리드 전기자동차(HEV; Hybrid Electric Vehicle)용 배터리 냉각장치 및 냉각방법에 관한 것으로, 더 자세하게는 상부 공기이동통로에 가변댐퍼를 설치하여 배터리 냉각을 위한 냉각공기 유입진로를 가변할 수 있도록 한 것에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a battery cooling device and a cooling method for a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) using a motor using an engine of an internal combustion engine and a power source of a battery as a power source, and more particularly, a variable damper in an upper air movement passage. The installation relates to allowing the variable air inflow path for cooling the battery.

일반적으로 하이브리드 전기자동차용 배터리 냉각장치는 도 1 및 도 2와 같이 다수개의 모듈로 이루어지는 배터리(10)의 상부와 하부에 배터리 냉각을 위한 공기이동통로(20)(30)가 마련된 형태로 되어 있다.(일본 공개특허공보 제2001-167806호 및 동 공보 제2002-373709호, 동 공보 제2002-231321호 참조)In general, the battery cooling apparatus for a hybrid electric vehicle has an air movement path 20 and 30 for cooling the battery at upper and lower portions of the battery 10 including a plurality of modules as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. (See Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication Nos. 2001-167806, 2002-373709, and 2002-231321).

그러나 종래의 배터리 냉각장치는 배터리(10) 상부에 마련되는 상부 공기이동통로(20)의 배터리 냉각을 위한 공간(면적)이 고정되어 있기 때문에 냉각효율이 나쁘게 되는 문제가 있었다.However, the conventional battery cooling device has a problem that the cooling efficiency is bad because the space (area) for cooling the battery of the upper air movement passage 20 provided on the battery 10 is fixed.

즉, 도 1 및 도 2에 도시된 종래의 배터리 냉각장치에 있어서는 배터리(10)를 냉각하기 위한 상부 공기이동통로(20)의 단면적이 고정되어 있기 때문에 냉각공기(Cooling air)의 양이 많고 적음에 따라 공기의 배분이 달라지게 되어 배터리(20) 각 부위의 온도 편차를 줄이는 것이 한계가 있게 된다.That is, in the conventional battery cooling apparatus illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, since the cross-sectional area of the upper air movement passage 20 for cooling the battery 10 is fixed, the amount of cooling air is large and small. As the distribution of air is changed according to the present invention, there is a limit in reducing the temperature variation of each part of the battery 20.

또한 냉각장치 설계 초기 균등 냉각을 위한 적절한 기울기 산출이 어렵고, 연속적인 배터리의 사용으로 배터리 내부 저항값이 변하면 발열량이 달라져 일정 방향의 냉각 공기만으로는 배터리의 온도편차를 줄이는 것이 어렵게 된다.In addition, it is difficult to calculate the proper slope for uniform cooling at the initial stage of the cooling device design, and when the internal resistance value of the battery is changed due to the continuous use of the battery, the amount of heat is changed.

본 발명은 상기 종래의 문제점을 감안하여 안출한 것이며, 그 목적이 배터리냉각시 다수개의 배터리 모듈에서 발생되는 온도편차를 줄여 배터리를 보다 효율적으로 냉각시킬 수 있도록 하는 하이브리드 전기자동차용 배터리의 냉각장치 및 냉각방법을 제공하는 데에 있는 것이다.The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and the object thereof is a cooling device for a hybrid electric vehicle battery that can cool the battery more efficiently by reducing the temperature deviation generated in the plurality of battery modules during battery cooling; It is to provide a cooling method.

아울러 본 발명은 배터리로부터 온도값을 읽고, 비교하여 온도가 높은 배터리 모듈쪽으로 상대적으로 많은 양의 공기가 공급되도록 댐퍼작동기를 작동하여 가변댐퍼(damper plate)의 기울기를 조절하는 것을 특징으로 한다.In addition, the present invention is characterized by adjusting the inclination of the damper plate by operating the damper actuator so that a relatively large amount of air is supplied to the battery module having a high temperature by reading and comparing the temperature value from the battery.
