As described above, when the determination unit determines that the driving engine is stopped, the air blowing control unit blows air to the blower in the second air blowing direction for discharging the air in the engine room to the outside of the engine room. Let Therefore, when the engine is stopped, the heat accumulated in the engine room can be discharged out of the engine room at an early stage. Therefore, it is possible to prevent heat damage to the components provided in the engine room.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram schematically showing a cross section of a vehicle front portion including an
図1に示すように、車両10は、エンジン14が車両前方に搭載されたエンジン車両である。車両10は、車両ボデー16、車両フード18、エンジン14、クーリングモジュール20、電子制御装置50、および、イグニッションスイッチ52などを備えている。
As shown in FIG. 1, the vehicle 10 is an engine vehicle in which an engine 14 is mounted on the front side of the vehicle. The vehicle 10 includes a vehicle body 16, a vehicle hood 18, an engine 14, a cooling module 20, an electronic control device 50, an ignition switch 52, and the like.
エンジンルーム12は車両ボデー16および車両フード18に取り囲まれることによって形成されている。具体的に、エンジンルーム12は車両10の中で前方に設けられ、エンジンルーム12内にはエンジン14が収容されている。エンジンルーム12の上方は車両フード18で覆われ、車両幅方向(すなわち、車両左右方向)におけるエンジンルーム12の両側はそれぞれ、車両ボデー16の一部である不図示の側面パネルで覆われている。
The engine room 12 is formed by being surrounded by a vehicle body 16 and a vehicle hood 18. Specifically, the engine room 12 is provided in front of the vehicle 10, and the engine 14 is accommodated in the engine room 12. The upper part of the engine room 12 is covered with a vehicle hood 18, and both sides of the engine room 12 in the vehicle width direction (that is, the vehicle left-right direction) are covered with side panels (not shown) that are part of the vehicle body 16. .
また、エンジンルーム12の後方は車両ボデー16の一部であるダッシュパネル161で覆われている。ダッシュパネル161は、エンジンルーム12に対する後方に形成された車室とエンジンルーム12とを隔てる隔壁である。
The rear of the engine room 12 is covered with a dash panel 161 that is a part of the vehicle body 16. The dash panel 161 is a partition wall that separates the engine room 12 from a vehicle compartment formed behind the engine room 12.
その一方で、エンジンルーム12の前方は、エンジンルーム12外の空気すなわち外気をエンジンルーム12内に流通させるために開口している。すなわち、車両10においてエンジンルーム12の前方には、エンジンルーム12から開口した開口孔12aが形成されている。
On the other hand, the front of the engine room 12 is opened to circulate the air outside the engine room 12, that is, the outside air, into the engine room 12. That is, an opening 12 a that opens from the engine room 12 is formed in front of the engine room 12 in the vehicle 10.
エンジン14は車両10の駆動力源であり、ガソリンエンジンまたはディーゼルエンジンなどの内燃機関である。エンジン14は、例えば排気系部品の1つとしてエキゾーストマニホールド141を有している。そのエキゾーストマニホールド141は、エンジン14の燃焼ガスを集合させて排気管へと流す多岐管である。すなわち、エキゾーストマニホールド141にはエンジン14の燃焼直後の燃焼ガスが流れるので、発熱するエンジン14の中でも高温の熱源となるものである。エキゾーストマニホールド141は、図1に示すように、エンジン14の中で車両後方寄りに配置されている。
The engine 14 is a driving force source of the vehicle 10 and is an internal combustion engine such as a gasoline engine or a diesel engine. The engine 14 has, for example, an exhaust manifold 141 as one of exhaust system parts. The exhaust manifold 141 is a manifold that collects the combustion gas of the engine 14 and flows it to the exhaust pipe. That is, since the combustion gas immediately after combustion of the engine 14 flows through the exhaust manifold 141, it becomes a high-temperature heat source among the engines 14 that generate heat. As shown in FIG. 1, the exhaust manifold 141 is disposed in the engine 14 closer to the rear of the vehicle.
また、エンジン14はエンジンルーム12内に収容されているが、エンジン14とエンジン14の上方に配置された車両フード18との間には、エンジン上部隙間12bとしての空間12bが形成されている。このエンジン上部隙間12bはエンジンルーム12内においてエンジン14の前方と後方との間で空気が流通できるように、すなわち、エンジン14の前方の空間と後方の空間12cとをつなぐように形成されている。
Further, the engine 14 is housed in the engine room 12, but a space 12b is formed as an engine upper gap 12b between the engine 14 and the vehicle hood 18 disposed above the engine 14. The engine upper gap 12b is formed in the engine room 12 so that air can flow between the front and rear of the engine 14, that is, to connect the space in front of the engine 14 and the space 12c in the rear. .
クーリングモジュール20は、車両10に搭載された空調装置の冷媒とエンジン冷却水とを冷却すると共にエンジンルーム12内に送風するユニットであり、エンジンルーム12前方の開口孔12aに設けられている。クーリングモジュール20は、空調用の凝縮器22とラジエータ24と送風機26とを含んで構成されている。そして、この凝縮器22、ラジエータ24、および送風機26は、車両前方から順に、凝縮器22、ラジエータ24、送風機26の順番で配置されている。そのため、送風機26は、エンジンルーム12内にて空気流れを生じさせると共に、凝縮器22およびラジエータ24に空気を流す。
The cooling module 20 is a unit that cools the refrigerant of the air conditioner mounted on the vehicle 10 and the engine cooling water and blows air into the engine room 12. The cooling module 20 is provided in the opening 12 a in front of the engine room 12. The cooling module 20 includes an air conditioning condenser 22, a radiator 24, and a blower 26. And this condenser 22, the radiator 24, and the air blower 26 are arrange | positioned in order of the condenser 22, the radiator 24, and the air blower 26 in order from the vehicle front. Therefore, the blower 26 generates an air flow in the engine room 12 and causes air to flow through the condenser 22 and the radiator 24.
また、ダッシュパネル161と送風機26との位置関係に着目すると、送風機26は、エンジン14を挟んでダッシュパネル161とは反対側に配置されている。言い換えれば、送風機26は、エンジン14に対する一方側である車両前方に配置され、且つ、エンジンルーム12は、エンジン14に対する他方側である車両後方を壁161としてのダッシュパネル161で塞がれている。
Further, paying attention to the positional relationship between the dash panel 161 and the blower 26, the blower 26 is disposed on the opposite side of the dash panel 161 with the engine 14 interposed therebetween. In other words, the blower 26 is disposed in front of the vehicle on one side with respect to the engine 14, and the engine room 12 is closed with a dash panel 161 serving as the wall 161 on the rear side of the vehicle with respect to the engine 14. .
凝縮器22は、車室内の空調を行う空調装置の一部を構成する熱交換器であり、その空調装置が有する冷凍サイクルを循環する冷媒を空気との熱交換により凝縮させる。ラジエータ24は、エンジン14を冷却するためのエンジン冷却水と空気との熱交換によりエンジン冷却水から放熱させる熱交換器である。送風機26を制御する電子制御装置50、ラジエータ24、および送風機26は、エンジン14およびエンジンルーム12内を冷却する冷却システムを構成している。
The condenser 22 is a heat exchanger that constitutes a part of an air conditioner that performs air conditioning in the passenger compartment, and condenses the refrigerant circulating in the refrigeration cycle of the air conditioner by heat exchange with air. The radiator 24 is a heat exchanger that radiates heat from the engine coolant by heat exchange between the engine coolant for cooling the engine 14 and air. The electronic control device 50, the radiator 24, and the blower 26 that control the blower 26 constitute a cooling system that cools the engine 14 and the engine room 12.
クーリングモジュール20の一部を構成する送風機26は一般的な電動の軸流式送風機である。詳細には図1に示すように、送風機26は、車両10の前後方向DR1に空気流を生じさせるファン261と、そのファン261を回転駆動するモータ262とを備えている。このモータ262は電子制御装置50からの制御信号に従って作動し、例えばモータ262の回転数および回転方向が電子制御装置50により制御される。
The blower 26 constituting a part of the cooling module 20 is a general electric axial flow blower. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the blower 26 includes a fan 261 that generates an air flow in the longitudinal direction DR <b> 1 of the vehicle 10, and a motor 262 that rotationally drives the fan 261. The motor 262 operates in accordance with a control signal from the electronic control device 50, and for example, the rotational speed and rotation direction of the motor 262 are controlled by the electronic control device 50.
送風機26は、エンジンルーム12内へエンジンルーム12外の空気を流入させる第1送風方向と、エンジンルーム12内の空気をエンジンルーム12外へと排出する第2送風方向とにそれぞれ送風可能となっている。その送風機26の第1送風方向とは、送風機26がエンジンルーム12の車両前方に設けられているので言い換えれば、図2の矢印FL1ように送風機26が車両前方から車両後方へと空気を流す送風方向である。また、送風機26の第2送風方向とは、図3の矢印FL2ように送風機26が車両後方から車両前方へと空気を流す送風方向である。図2は、図1に示す車両フロント部分の断面の模式図に第1送風方向の空気流れを矢印FL1として描き入れた図である。また、図3は、図1に示す車両フロント部分の断面の模式図に第2送風方向の空気流れを矢印FL2として描き入れた図である。
The blower 26 is capable of blowing air in a first blowing direction in which air outside the engine room 12 flows into the engine room 12 and in a second blowing direction in which the air inside the engine room 12 is discharged outside the engine room 12. ing. The first air blowing direction of the blower 26 is because the blower 26 is provided in front of the vehicle in the engine room 12. In other words, the blower 26 blows air from the front of the vehicle to the rear of the vehicle as indicated by an arrow FL1 in FIG. Direction. Moreover, the 2nd ventilation direction of the air blower 26 is an air blowing direction in which the air blower 26 flows air from the vehicle rear to the vehicle front as shown by an arrow FL2 in FIG. FIG. 2 is a diagram in which the air flow in the first air blowing direction is drawn as an arrow FL1 in the schematic cross-sectional view of the vehicle front portion shown in FIG. FIG. 3 is a diagram in which the air flow in the second air blowing direction is drawn as an arrow FL2 in the schematic diagram of the cross section of the vehicle front portion shown in FIG.
送風機26のファン261は、図4に示すように軸流式ファンである。図4は、ファン261単体を車両前方から見た図、すなわち、図1におけるファン261単体のIV矢視図である。ファン261は、モータ262に連結されたファンボス263と、ファンボス263から放射状に径方向外側へ延びる複数枚のファンブレード264と、複数枚のファンブレード264の先端がそれぞれ連結された円環状のファンリング265とを有している。
The fan 261 of the blower 26 is an axial flow fan as shown in FIG. 4 is a view of the fan 261 alone as viewed from the front of the vehicle, that is, a view taken along the arrow IV of the fan 261 alone in FIG. The fan 261 has an annular shape in which a fan boss 263 connected to the motor 262, a plurality of fan blades 264 extending radially outward from the fan boss 263, and a plurality of fan blades 264 are connected to each other. And a fan ring 265.
図1に示す送風機26の送風方向は、ファン261が軸流式ファンであるので、ファン261の回転方向に応じて反転する。例えば、送風機26は、ファン261が正回転方向へ回転することで第1送風方向(すなわち、図2の矢印FL1方向)へ送風する。その一方で、送風機26は、ファン261が正回転方向とは逆向きの逆回転方向へ回転することで第2送風方向(すなわち、図3の矢印FL2方向)へ送風する。
1 is reversed according to the rotation direction of the fan 261 because the fan 261 is an axial flow fan. For example, the blower 26 blows air in the first air blowing direction (that is, in the direction of the arrow FL1 in FIG. 2) as the fan 261 rotates in the normal rotation direction. On the other hand, the blower 26 blows air in the second blowing direction (that is, the direction of the arrow FL2 in FIG. 3) when the fan 261 rotates in the reverse rotation direction opposite to the normal rotation direction.
送風機26は、エンジン14の駆動中においては、電子制御装置50の制御により、図2の矢印FL1で示す第1送風方向へ送風するように作動させられる。或いは、停止させられる。要するに、送風機26は、エンジン14の駆動中においては第1送風方向へ間欠的に送風する。
The blower 26 is operated so as to blow in the first blowing direction indicated by the arrow FL1 in FIG. 2 under the control of the electronic control unit 50 while the engine 14 is being driven. Alternatively, it is stopped. In short, the blower 26 blows air intermittently in the first blowing direction while the engine 14 is being driven.
次に、送風機26の制御系について説明する。図1に示す電子制御装置50には、車両10に設けられた各スイッチからのスイッチ信号、および各センサからのセンサ信号が入力される。
Next, the control system of the blower 26 will be described. A switch signal from each switch provided in the vehicle 10 and a sensor signal from each sensor are input to the electronic control device 50 shown in FIG.
例えば図1に示すように、乗員に操作される操作装置であるイグニッションスイッチ52が、車両10の車室内に設けられている。イグニッションスイッチ52からのスイッチ信号は、電子制御装置50と、エンジン14を制御する不図示のエンジン制御装置とにそれぞれ入力されるようになっている。このイグニッションスイッチ52は、エンジン14を駆動または停止するためのキースイッチである。
For example, as shown in FIG. 1, an ignition switch 52, which is an operation device operated by a passenger, is provided in the passenger compartment of the vehicle 10. A switch signal from the ignition switch 52 is input to an electronic control device 50 and an engine control device (not shown) that controls the engine 14. The ignition switch 52 is a key switch for driving or stopping the engine 14.
例えばエンジン14が停止しているときに、エンジン14を始動させる予め定められたエンジン始動操作がイグニッションスイッチ52に対して為された場合には、エンジン14が上記エンジン制御装置によって始動される。また、エンジン14を停止させる予め定められたエンジン停止操作がイグニッションスイッチ52に対してエンジン14の駆動中に為された場合には、エンジン14が上記エンジン制御装置によって停止させられる。
For example, when a predetermined engine start operation for starting the engine 14 is performed on the ignition switch 52 when the engine 14 is stopped, the engine 14 is started by the engine control device. Further, when a predetermined engine stop operation for stopping the engine 14 is performed while the engine 14 is being driven with respect to the ignition switch 52, the engine 14 is stopped by the engine control device.
電子制御装置50は、CPU、ROM、RAM等からなる周知のマイクロコンピュータとその周辺回路とから構成されており、ROM等に予め記憶されたコンピュータプログラムに従って種々の制御処理を実行する。
The electronic control unit 50 includes a well-known microcomputer including a CPU, a ROM, a RAM and the like and peripheral circuits thereof, and executes various control processes according to a computer program stored in advance in the ROM or the like.
電子制御装置50は、種々の送風機制御を実行する制御部として機能し、その送風機制御の1つとして、図5のフローチャートに示す制御処理を実行する。その図5は、エンジン14が停止された際の送風機制御を行う制御処理を示したフローチャートである。
The electronic control unit 50 functions as a control unit that executes various blower controls, and executes control processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5 as one of the blower controls. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a control process for performing blower control when the engine 14 is stopped.
電子制御装置50は、図5のフローチャートに示す制御処理を周期的に繰り返し実行する。図5に示すように、電子制御装置50は、まず、ステップS01では、駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられたか否かを判定する。具体的には、イグニッションスイッチ52からのスイッチ信号に基づいてその判定を行う。すなわち、イグニッションスイッチ52に対し上記エンジン停止操作がエンジン14の駆動中に為された場合に、駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられたと判定する。
The electronic control unit 50 periodically and repeatedly executes the control process shown in the flowchart of FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, the electronic control unit 50 first determines in step S01 whether or not the engine 14 being driven has been stopped. Specifically, the determination is performed based on a switch signal from the ignition switch 52. That is, when the engine stop operation is performed on the ignition switch 52 while the engine 14 is being driven, it is determined that the engine 14 being driven is stopped.
ステップS01において、駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられたと判定した場合には、ステップS02へ進む。その一方で、駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられてはいないと判定した場合には、図5のフローチャートは終了し、再びステップS01から開始する。その駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられてはいない場合とは、例えば、駆動中のエンジン14がそのまま駆動されている場合、エンジン14が既に停止している場合、または、エンジン14が始動された場合である。
If it is determined in step S01 that the engine 14 being driven has been stopped, the process proceeds to step S02. On the other hand, if it is determined that the engine 14 being driven has not been stopped, the flowchart of FIG. 5 ends and starts again from step S01. The case where the engine 14 being driven is not stopped is, for example, the case where the engine 14 being driven is driven as it is, the case where the engine 14 is already stopped, or the case where the engine 14 is started Is the case.
ステップS02では、送風機26のモータ262へ制御信号を出力し、図4に示す逆回転方向へファン261を回転させる。これにより、送風機26に第2送風方向(すなわち、図3の矢印FL2方向)へと送風させる。このとき、図1に示すようにエンジンルーム12内では、エンジン14とダッシュパネル161との間の空間12cに溜まった空気は、エンジン14周りを通ってエンジン14前方に配置された送風機26へと吸い込まれる。そのエンジン14とダッシュパネル161との間の空間12cに溜まった空気とは、言い換えれば、エンジン14後方のエンジン後方空間12cに溜まった空気である。例えばエンジン14の上方にはエンジン上部隙間12bが設けられているので、そのエンジン後方空間12cの空気は、エンジン上部隙間12bを通って車両前方へと排出される。このように排出される空気がエンジン上部隙間12bを通ることにより、熱流体であるエンジンルーム12内の空気が自然対流で自然と上昇するという性質が活かされ、それによりエンジンルーム12内の冷却が促進される。
In step S02, a control signal is output to the motor 262 of the blower 26, and the fan 261 is rotated in the reverse rotation direction shown in FIG. This causes the blower 26 to blow in the second blowing direction (that is, the direction of the arrow FL2 in FIG. 3). At this time, as shown in FIG. 1, in the engine room 12, the air accumulated in the space 12 c between the engine 14 and the dash panel 161 passes around the engine 14 to the blower 26 disposed in front of the engine 14. Inhaled. In other words, the air accumulated in the space 12 c between the engine 14 and the dash panel 161 is air accumulated in the engine rear space 12 c behind the engine 14. For example, since the engine upper gap 12b is provided above the engine 14, the air in the engine rear space 12c is discharged to the front of the vehicle through the engine upper gap 12b. The air discharged in this way passes through the engine upper gap 12b, so that the property that the air in the engine room 12 which is a thermal fluid naturally rises by natural convection is utilized, thereby cooling the engine room 12 Promoted.
また、第2送風方向への送風に関し、例えば、その第2送風方向への送風を行わせる送風実施時間が予め実験的に設定されている。そして、電子制御装置50は、第2送風方向への送風開始時から上記送風実施時間の経過後に送風機26を停止する。ステップS02が終了すると、図5のフローチャートは終了し、再びステップS01から開始する。
In addition, regarding the air blowing in the second air blowing direction, for example, a blowing time for performing air blowing in the second air blowing direction is experimentally set in advance. And the electronic control apparatus 50 stops the air blower 26 after progress of the said ventilation implementation time from the time of the ventilation start to a 2nd ventilation direction. When step S02 ends, the flowchart of FIG. 5 ends and starts again from step S01.
なお、上述した図5の各ステップでの処理は、それぞれの機能を実現する機能部を構成している。また、図5のステップS01は判定部に対応し、ステップS02は送風制御部に対応する。
Note that the processing in each step of FIG. 5 described above constitutes a functional unit that realizes each function. Further, step S01 in FIG. 5 corresponds to the determination unit, and step S02 corresponds to the air blowing control unit.
上述したように、本実施形態によれば、駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられた場合に、電子制御装置50は、送風機26に、図3の矢印FL2のようにエンジンルーム12内の空気をエンジンルーム12外へと排出する第2送風方向へと送風させる。従って、エンジン14が停止した場合にエンジンルーム12内に溜まった熱を早期にエンジンルーム12外へと排出することが可能である。言い換えれば、そのエンジンルーム12内に溜まった熱を早期に掃気することが可能である。その結果、エンジンルーム12内に設けられた部品への熱害を防止することができる。
As described above, according to the present embodiment, when the engine 14 being driven is stopped, the electronic control unit 50 causes the air in the engine room 12 to be supplied to the blower 26 as indicated by the arrow FL2 in FIG. It blows in the 2nd ventilation direction discharged | emitted out of the engine room 12. FIG. Therefore, when the engine 14 is stopped, the heat accumulated in the engine room 12 can be discharged out of the engine room 12 at an early stage. In other words, the heat accumulated in the engine room 12 can be scavenged at an early stage. As a result, heat damage to components provided in the engine room 12 can be prevented.
ここで、上記の本実施形態における熱害防止という効果を、図6および図7を用いて説明する。図6および図7は何れも、コンピュータシミュレーションの結果を示すエンジンルーム12の温度分布図であり、エンジン停止時から、数秒間に設定されている所定時間が経過した時点の温度分布、要するに、エンジン停止直後の温度分布を表している。図6は、上記の図5の制御処理が実施されずエンジン停止時以降において送風機26が停止される比較例の温度分布図であり、図7は、上記の図5の制御処理が実施される本実施形態の温度分布図である。なお、図6および図7では、各図の左上の凡例に示すように温度分布はハッチングを付して表示されている。また、図6および図7では、エンジンルーム12、エンジン14、車両ボデー16、車両フード18、およびクーリングモジュール20などは、コンピュータシミュレーションに適用された外形で表示されている。
Here, the effect of preventing heat damage in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 are both temperature distribution diagrams of the engine room 12 showing the result of the computer simulation. The temperature distribution at the time when a predetermined time set for several seconds has elapsed since the engine stopped, in short, the engine The temperature distribution immediately after the stop is shown. FIG. 6 is a temperature distribution diagram of a comparative example in which the blower 26 is stopped after the engine stop without performing the control process of FIG. 5, and FIG. 7 is the control process of FIG. It is a temperature distribution figure of this embodiment. In FIGS. 6 and 7, the temperature distribution is indicated by hatching as shown in the legend at the upper left of each figure. In FIGS. 6 and 7, the engine room 12, the engine 14, the vehicle body 16, the vehicle hood 18, the cooling module 20, and the like are displayed in outlines applied to computer simulation.
図6に示すように比較例では、エンジン停止時以降において送風機26が停止されるので、エンジン停止直後では、エンジンルーム12内においてエンジン14の後方に熱が溜まる。そして、高温のエキゾーストマニホールド141(図1参照)に隣接するエンジン後方空間12cでは高温雰囲気が継続する。このことから、比較例では、エンジン後方空間12cを積極的に冷却することが困難であり、その高温になっているエンジン後方空間12cにて熱害が進行し易くなる。
As shown in FIG. 6, in the comparative example, since the blower 26 is stopped after the engine is stopped, heat is accumulated behind the engine 14 in the engine room 12 immediately after the engine is stopped. The high-temperature atmosphere continues in the engine rear space 12c adjacent to the high-temperature exhaust manifold 141 (see FIG. 1). For this reason, in the comparative example, it is difficult to actively cool the engine rear space 12c, and thermal damage easily proceeds in the engine rear space 12c that is at a high temperature.
一方、本実施形態では、駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられた場合に、送風機26は図3の矢印FL2のようにエンジンルーム12内の空気をエンジンルーム12外へと排出する第2送風方向へと送風する。そのため、図7に示すように、エンジン停止直後において、エンジン後方空間12cの高温の領域が図6の比較例に対し大幅に縮小している。これにより、エンジンルーム12内に設けられた部品への熱害、特にエンジン後方空間12cに隣接する部品への熱害を防止することができる。なお、この図7のコンピュータシミュレーションにおいて、本実施形態では、矢印FLoutのようにエンジンルーム12から温風が吹き出されることが確認されている。
On the other hand, in the present embodiment, when the driving engine 14 is stopped, the blower 26 discharges the air in the engine room 12 to the outside of the engine room 12 as indicated by an arrow FL2 in FIG. To blow. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, immediately after the engine is stopped, the high temperature region of the engine rear space 12c is greatly reduced as compared with the comparative example of FIG. Thereby, the heat damage to the components provided in the engine room 12, especially the heat damage to the components adjacent to the engine rear space 12c can be prevented. In the computer simulation of FIG. 7, in this embodiment, it is confirmed that warm air is blown out from the engine room 12 as indicated by the arrow FLout.
また、駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられた場合に、例えば本実施形態とは逆に第1送風方向(すなわち、図2の矢印FL1方向)へと送風することも考えられる。しかしながら、そのように第1送風方向へ送風したとしても、エンジン後方空間12cを十分に冷却することは困難である。
Further, when the driving engine 14 is stopped, for example, it is conceivable that the air is blown in the first blowing direction (that is, the direction of the arrow FL1 in FIG. 2) contrary to the present embodiment. However, even if the air is blown in the first air blowing direction, it is difficult to sufficiently cool the engine rear space 12c.
また、本実施形態によれば、電子制御装置50は、軸流式のファン261を逆回転方向へ回転させることにより、送風機26に上記第2送風方向へと送風させる。従って、エンジン14の駆動中に上記第1送風方向へ送風する送風機26のファン261を用いて第2送風方向への送風を行うことが可能である。要するに、送風機26は、第1送風方向へ送風するファンとは別個に第2送風方向へ送風するファンを有する必要がないというメリットがある。
Further, according to the present embodiment, the electronic control unit 50 causes the blower 26 to blow in the second blowing direction by rotating the axial flow type fan 261 in the reverse rotation direction. Therefore, it is possible to blow in the second blowing direction using the fan 261 of the blower 26 that blows in the first blowing direction while the engine 14 is driven. In short, the blower 26 has an advantage that it is not necessary to have a fan that blows air in the second air blowing direction separately from the fan that blows air in the first air blowing direction.
また、本実施形態によれば、電子制御装置50は、イグニッションスイッチ52に対し所定のエンジン停止操作がエンジン14の駆動中に為された場合に、駆動中のエンジン14が停止させられたと判定する。従って、第2送風方向への送風開始を判定するための信号を容易に得ることが可能である。
Further, according to the present embodiment, the electronic control unit 50 determines that the engine 14 being driven is stopped when a predetermined engine stop operation is performed on the ignition switch 52 while the engine 14 is being driven. . Therefore, it is possible to easily obtain a signal for determining the start of blowing in the second blowing direction.
また、本実施形態によれば、送風機26はエンジン14に対する一方側(具体的には、車両前方)に配置されている。そして、エンジンルーム12はエンジン14に対する他方側(具体的には、車両後方)をダッシュパネル161で塞がれている。そのため、エンジン14の停止直後においてエンジン後方空間12cに熱が溜まりやすく、そのエンジン後方空間12cの熱を、第2送風方向への送風によって効果的に排出することができる。なお、上記のエンジンルーム12がエンジン14に対する他方側をダッシュパネル161で塞がれていることは、その他方側を完全に塞ぐことに限らず、例えばエンジン後方空間12cに熱が溜まりやすくなる程度に或る程度塞ぐことを含む意味である。
Further, according to the present embodiment, the blower 26 is disposed on one side (specifically, in front of the vehicle) with respect to the engine 14. The engine room 12 is covered with a dash panel 161 on the other side (specifically, the vehicle rear side) with respect to the engine 14. Therefore, heat is easily accumulated in the engine rear space 12c immediately after the engine 14 is stopped, and the heat in the engine rear space 12c can be effectively discharged by blowing in the second blowing direction. Note that the fact that the engine room 12 is closed on the other side with respect to the engine 14 by the dash panel 161 is not limited to completely closing the other side, and for example, heat is likely to accumulate in the engine rear space 12c. It means to include a certain amount of blockage.
また、本実施形態によれば、エキゾーストマニホールド141は、エンジン14の中で車両後方寄りに配置されている。そして、エキゾーストマニホールド141には、エンジン14における燃料の燃焼により高温の燃焼ガスが流入し、エキゾーストマニホールド141はエンジン駆動中における高温の熱源となっている。そのため、エンジン14の停止直後において、エキゾーストマニホールド141に隣接するエンジン後方空間12cには熱が溜まりやすく、そのエンジン後方空間12cの熱を、第2送風方向への送風によって効果的に排出することができる。
Further, according to the present embodiment, the exhaust manifold 141 is disposed closer to the rear of the vehicle in the engine 14. High-temperature combustion gas flows into the exhaust manifold 141 due to the combustion of fuel in the engine 14, and the exhaust manifold 141 serves as a high-temperature heat source during driving of the engine. Therefore, immediately after the engine 14 is stopped, heat tends to accumulate in the engine rear space 12c adjacent to the exhaust manifold 141, and the heat in the engine rear space 12c can be effectively discharged by blowing air in the second air blowing direction. it can.
また、本実施形態によれば、送風機26は、エンジン冷却水を放熱させるラジエータ24を含むクーリングモジュール20の一部を構成し、そのラジエータ24に空気を流す。従って、ラジエータ24に空気を流す送風機26を用いて第2送風方向への送風を行わせることが可能であり、第2送風方向への送風のために特別に送風機を用意する必要がない。
Further, according to the present embodiment, the blower 26 constitutes a part of the cooling module 20 including the radiator 24 that dissipates the engine cooling water, and causes the air to flow through the radiator 24. Accordingly, it is possible to cause the radiator 24 to blow air in the second blowing direction using the blower 26 that flows air, and it is not necessary to prepare a special blower for blowing in the second blowing direction.
