Vehicle comprising an electrical storage device cooled by a fan

When a device temperature (Tb) of an electrical storage device (10) is higher than or equal to a reference temperature, a fan (22) is driven at an air quantity larger than or equal to a reference air quantity. On the other hand, when the device temperature is lower than the reference temperature, air that has received heat from the electrical storage device is guided to a discharge chamber by driving the fan at an air quantity smaller than the reference air quantity on the basis of the fact that an air-conditioning system is operating and an outside air temperature is lower than or equal to a predetermined temperature. When the air-conditioning system is operating and the outside air temperature is lower than or equal to the predetermined temperature, it is assumed that there is a temperature difference between a passenger compartment and the discharge chamber. At this time, by driving the fan at the air quantity smaller than the reference air quantity, it is possible to bring the temperature of the discharge chamber close to the temperature of the passenger compartment by raising the temperature of the discharge chamber, so it is possible to reduce the temperature difference between the discharge chamber and the passenger compartment.

Steering control apparatus

An update amount calculation processing circuit manipulates a control angle based on an update amount in order to perform feedback-control for causing a steering torque to be adjusted to a target torque. In this case, the update amount calculation processing circuit executes a guard process on the update amount with reference to an estimated amount of change that is a speed equivalent value based on estimation by an induced voltage observer. However, when a command current set by a command current setting processing circuit is zero, the update amount calculation processing circuit determines the estimated amount of change subjected to the guard process to be the update amount. When the command current is zero and the update amount is fixed to a guard value, an electric path between the synchronous motor and a battery is blocked.

A control system includes a controller. The controller estimates the swing-back amount indicating the turning amount of the crankshaft in the reverse rotation direction until the crankshaft stops. The controller calculates a stop-time counter value which is a value of a crank counter at the time when the engine is stopped based on a final counter value which is the value of the crank counter calculated last before the crankshaft stops and the estimated swing-back amount. The controller corrects the swing-back amount used for calculating the stop-time counter value based on a difference between the number of driving times calculated with reference to the map based on the calculated stop-time counter value and the value of the crank counter and the number of driving times calculated by increasing the number of driving times by one each time the high pressure system fuel pressure increases by the threshold or more.
