  • Patent number: 8587291
    Abstract: A diagnosis device and method of a voltage transformer can include a current transformer disposed at one side of an output port for generating a current variation according to an on/off operation of a power switch element; a first current detector configured to detect a forward direction current from the current transformer; a second current detector configured to detect a reverse direction current from the current transformer; a first voltage transformer configured to transform the forward direction current detected from the first current detector to a forward direction voltage; a second voltage transformer configured to transform the reverse direction current detected from the second current detector to a reverse direction voltage; and a diagnosis portion for comparing the forward direction voltage with the reverse direction voltage to determine whether or not an offset is formed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8380377
    Abstract: A method for controlling a cooling system for controlling a power converter of a hybrid electric vehicle includes: estimating the temperature of a power converter at the time of a CAN communication error as a current temperature of the power converter and controlling a cooling system at a cooling rate based on the estimated temperature; and controlling the cooling rate of the cooling system depending on whether an output of the power converter is greater than a reference value. According to the method, the cooling system can be more effectively controlled.
