Abstract
Disclosed is a method of cooling control for a drive motor of an electric vehicle, the method including: a normal driving step of controlling the output of the cooling apparatus to be in proportion to a driving speed of the electric vehicle; a sensing step of predicting changes in the driving speed of the electric vehicle during the normal driving step; a first supercooling step of cooling residual heat of the drive motor prior to beginning of deceleration by temporarily operating the cooling apparatus at a higher output than the output controlled in the normal driving step, when deceleration is predicted in the sensing step; and a second supercooling step of cooling the drive motor in advance by temporarily operating the cooling apparatus at a higher output than the output controlled in the normal driving step, when acceleration is predicted in the sensing step after performing the first supercooling step.
