Abstract

An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) control method applied with a humidity sensor for preventing condensation to prevent corrosion caused by exhaust gas in a vehicle, may include a first step of measuring a temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure of intake air which is introduced from the outside of the vehicle and flows into the EGR; a second step of determining a molar fraction of water vapor included in the intake air by a combustion equation of the water vapor and determining water vapor pressure in the EGR; and a third step of opening an EGR valve so that EGR gas flows when the water vapor pressure in the EGR is lower than saturated water vapor pressure in the EGR.
