Abstract
The voltage of the vehicle battery is checked to see whether the voltage is below a predetermined value or not. When the battery voltage is below the predetermined value, the engine crankshaft rotational speed is raised by increasing the amount of air fed to the engine so that the rotational speed of the alternator driven by the engine increases resulting in an increase in the charging current.
