Abstract

Methods and system for controlling conditions within an enclosure housing a vehicle propulsion energy source are described. In one example, vehicle windows, vents, and shades may be operated to reduce an amount of energy used to maintain conditions within an enclosure housing a vehicle propulsion source. The systems and methods may be at least incorporated into electric and hybrid vehicles.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and systems for improving the control of the environment within a vehicle battery enclosure. The method and system can be used to conserve energy stored in batteries. Background technique [0002] A battery housing for a battery that propels a vehicle may provide protection for battery cells within the battery housing from outdoor environmental conditions such as rainfall, snowfall, hot outdoor ambient temperatures, and cold outdoor ambient temperatures. The battery housing can be encapsulated under the vehicle and between the wheels to protect the battery housing and improve vehicle driving dynamics. In some examples, the battery enclosure may include an environmental controller for maintaining conditions within the battery enclosure within a desired range. For example, the battery enclosure environmental controller may include a fan to cool the battery cells when the battery cells exceed a threshold temperat...
