Abstract:
A method for controlling an active air flap (AAF) based on an aerodynamic force gain may include an AAF optimization cooling-related mode in which the AAF is configured to be controlled to operate in an AAF open state or an AAF close state to match a detected ambient temperature and a detected vehicle speed when an operation of a heating device is detected by a controller during vehicle traveling.
