Vehicular control apparatus

摘要

A vehicular control apparatus that includes a switched reluctance motor and an electronic control unit is provided. The switched reluctance motor has a rotor and a stator and is mounted as a travel drive source in a vehicle. The electronic control unit executes current control of the switched reluctance motor. The electronic control unit executes first current control for causing the rotor to rotate in a reverse direction from a rotational direction in which the vehicle is started in the case where the vehicle is not started even when the switched reluctance motor outputs maximum torque within an allowable range, and executes control for causing the rotor to rotate in the rotational direction in which the vehicle is started after the rotor rotates in the reverse direction by the first current control to a rotation position at which torque for enabling a start of the vehicle can be output.

1. A vehicular control apparatus, comprising:
a switched reluctance motor having a rotor and a stator and mounted as a travel drive source in a vehicle; an electronic control unit configured to execute current control of the switched reluctance motor, the electronic control unit being configured to:
(i) execute first current control, the first current control causing the rotor to rotate in a reverse direction from a rotational direction in which the vehicle is started, in a case where the vehicle is not started even when the switched reluctance motor outputs a maximum torque that can be output by a normal current control;(ii) execute control for causing the rotor to rotate in the rotational direction in which the vehicle is started after the rotor rotates in the reverse direction by the first current control to a rotation position at which torque for enabling a start of the vehicle can be output; and(iii) prioritize execution of second current control over execution of the first current control in the case where the vehicle is not started even when the switched reluctance motor outputs the maximum torque that can be output by the normal current control, the second current control causing the switched reluctance motor to temporarily output torque that is in the rotational direction for starting the vehicle and is higher than the maximum torque that can be output by the normal current control.
