Abstract

In a power battery heating method for a vehicle, when a current temperature value of a power battery is lower than a preset temperature value, and a heating condition of the power battery meets a preset condition, a three-phase inverter is controlled to cause a three-phase alternating current motor to generate heat according to heating energy, to heat a coolant flowing through the power battery, a preset quadrature-axis current that causes a torque value outputted by the motor to be an appropriate value is obtained, and a corresponding preset direct-axis current is obtained according to heating power of the power battery, so as to control, according to the preset direct-axis current and the preset quadrature-axis current, the three-phase inverter to adjust a phase current of the three-phase alternating current motor in the heating process, where a direction of the preset direct-axis current changes periodically in the heating process.
