System and method for idle charge of hybrid vehicle

摘要

A method for idle charging of a hybrid vehicle according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include: detecting an SOC of a battery and entering times to an idle charge control state; changing an entering point and a releasing point of the idle charge control according to a number of entering times to the idle charge control state for a predetermined period; performing idle charging by forcibly starting an engine when the SOC of the battery reaches the entering point of the idle charge control; and stopping the engine when the SOC of the battery reaches the releasing point of the idle charge control state as the idle charge is performed.

1. A system for idle charging of a hybrid vehicle, comprising:
a state of charge (SOC) detector configured to detect an SOC of a battery that changes according to a driving condition; an idle charge counter configured to count a number of entering times to an idle charge control state, wherein the number of entering times are the number of times that the hybrid vehicle enters the idle charge control state in a predetermined period of time; a charging controller configured to variably set an entering point and a releasing point of the idle charge control state based on the SOC of the battery and the counted entering times to the idle charge control during the predetermined period of time, wherein as the number of times that the hybrid vehicle enters the idle charge control state during the predetermined period increases, the charging controller lowers the entering point of the idle charge control state and raises the releasing point of the idle charge control state; and a hybrid shaft generator (HSG) operated as a motor so as to forcibly start an engine according to a control of the charging controller and operated as a generator so as to perform idle charging when the engine is started.
