Cooling control apparatus and cooling method for controlling an electric vehicle motor

Without giving an uncomfortable feeling to the user, obtaining a cooling controller and a cooling control method for the electric vehicle motor capable of reducing damage to the motor. Vehicle control unit includes a determining vehicle stop determination unit that determines whether the vehicle has stopped, when the stop of the vehicle is determined, and a clutch control unit to cut off the clutch after the clutch is disengaged, the drive motor by, organic and motor control unit for driving the oil circulation unit detects the induced voltage generated by the driving of the motor, the induced voltage of the detected motor, and a motor magnet temperature estimating unit for estimating a magnet temperature of the motor, the and, the motor control unit, the magnet temperature of the estimated motor is higher than the predetermined reference temperature required cooling of the motor will continue to drive the motor, the magnet temperature of the motor, the reference if below the temperature stops the driving of the motor.
