Abstract: A generating control device for a hybrid vehicle includes a motor 13 for driving the hybrid vehicle, a battery 12 for driving the motor, a generator 11 for supplying the motor 13 and the battery 12 with electricity, an engine 10 for driving the generator 11 and a control unit 16. In operation, the unit 16 operates to change the operations of the generator 11 and the engine 10 in both of the normal generating mode and the battery protection mode. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the deterioration of the battery 12 of the hybrid vehicle and to ensure the fine driving performance.

Abstract: By calculating a fuel vapor quantity in a fuel tank based on a fuel temperature and a fuel residual quantity in the fuel tank, then calculating a fuel vapor purge quantity based on an engine revolution number and engine torque when an engine is driven, and then estimating a fuel vapor quantity captured in a vapor capturing unit based on the fuel vapor quantity and the fuel vapor purge quantity, the engine can be driven to purge the fuel vapor to the engine before the fuel vapor overflows the vapor capturing unit to thus be discharged into the air.
