[0036] The present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that in the drawings or descriptions, similar or identical parts use the same figure numbers, and the implementation methods not shown or described in the drawings are forms known to ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field. In the description of this application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present application provides a control device 10. The control device 10 can be electrically connected to a fan 20 and a wind speed sensor 11. The fan 20 is used to blow air to an engine 30 located on a test bench 40. The model and structure of the engine 30 can be flexibly determined according to actual conditions. The test bench 40 is used to fix the engine 30. The engine 30 can be an engine assembly of a vehicle.

[0038] The wind speed sensor 11 can sense the air flow rate near the engine 30 as the actual wind speed sensed. The number of wind speed sensors 11 can be one or more. The wind speed sensor 11 can be set on the test bench 40, or on the surface of the engine 30. Alternatively, the wind speed sensor 11 is set on the test bench 40 and the surface of the engine 30. The setting position of the wind speed sensor 11 can be flexibly determined according to actual conditions, as long as the wind speed sensor 11 can sense the air flow rate near the engine 30.

[0039] The orientation of the engine 30 and the fan 20 can be flexibly set according to actual conditions. For example, if the exhaust side of the engine 30 is arranged at the front end of the vehicle, the fan 20 is oriented toward the exhaust side of the engine 30 to blow air to the exhaust side of the engine 30. That is, by blowing air from the indoor fan 20 to the engine 30, it is possible to simulate a scene in which the air blows toward the engine 30 from the front end of the vehicle while the vehicle is driving.

[0040] In this embodiment, the control device 10 can control the rotation speed of the fan 20 based on the actual wind speed sensed by the wind speed sensor 11. The control device 10 may include a processing module and a storage module. The storage module stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by the processing module, the control device 10 can execute the corresponding steps in the following test bench fan 20 control method.

[0041] The control device 10 may be, but is not limited to, a host computer, a personal computer, etc. The control device 10 may communicate with the fan 20 via a serial interface, and the control device 10 may output a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal to the fan, and control the speed of the fan via the PWM signal.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 2 The present application also provides a method for controlling a fan 20 of a test bench 40, referred to as a fan 20 control method. The fan 20 control method can be applied to the above-mentioned control device 10, and each step of the method is executed or implemented by the control device 10. The fan 20 control method can include the following steps:

[0043] Step 110, obtaining a control parameter currently used to control the operation of a fan, wherein the fan is used to blow air to an engine on a test bench, and a wind speed sensor for detecting wind speed is provided on the engine or the test bench;

[0044] Step 120: Based on the control parameter, the rotation speed of the fan is controlled so that the difference between the actual wind speed detected by the wind speed sensor and the expected wind speed in the control parameter is within a preset range.

[0045] The following will describe the various steps of the fan control method in detail as follows:

[0046] In step 110, the control device can flexibly obtain control parameters according to actual conditions. The control parameters may include, but are not limited to, the actual wind speed sensed by the wind speed sensor, the expected wind speed, the target speed for controlling the operation of the fan, etc. Among them, the expected wind speed and the target speed can be flexibly determined according to actual conditions. For example, the expected wind speed can be manually input by the operator through the control device. The target speed is the speed of the fan corresponding to the expected wind speed.

[0047] In step 120, the control device can control the speed of the fan based on the expected wind speed or target speed in the control parameters, so that when the wind blown by the fan reaches the wind speed sensor, the actual wind speed sensed by the wind speed sensor is the same as the expected wind speed or the difference is small. In this way, the control device can flexibly control the fan to adjust the wind speed according to different test requirements of the operator, so that the wind speed near the engine accurately reaches the corresponding specified value, thereby facilitating accurate testing of the engine.

[0048] In this embodiment, the difference between the actual wind speed and the expected wind speed is within a preset range, wherein the difference refers to the absolute value of the difference between the actual wind speed and the expected wind speed. The preset range can be flexibly set according to actual conditions and is a range value used to indicate a smaller wind speed difference.

[0049] As an optional implementation, step 110 may include:

[0050] Acquiring operating parameters of the engine when it is running, wherein the operating parameters include a speed and a load of the engine and a target vehicle speed corresponding to the speed and the load;

[0051] Based on a pre-stored first correspondence between vehicle speed and wind speed, determining a wind speed corresponding to the target vehicle speed as an expected wind speed;

[0052] Based on a pre-stored second correspondence between the rotation speed and the wind speed, a target rotation speed corresponding to the expected wind speed is acquired, wherein the control parameter includes the expected wind speed and the target rotation speed.

[0053] In this embodiment, the control device can obtain the engine operating parameters from various sensors installed on the engine. For example, the sensor may include but is not limited to a speed sensor for detecting the engine speed, a load sensor for detecting the engine load, and the like.

[0054] The operating parameters may include, but are not limited to, the engine speed and load. For example, the operating parameters may also include the vehicle speed corresponding to the engine operation. The target vehicle speed may be understood as the vehicle speed under the same operating parameters when the engine is installed on the vehicle.

[0055] In this embodiment, after the engine is installed on the vehicle, there is a mapping relationship between the engine speed, load, and the vehicle speed. The control device can store the mapping relationship, and based on the mapping relationship, the vehicle speed corresponding to the current engine speed and load can be obtained as the target vehicle speed.

[0056] Similarly, during the driving process of the vehicle, there is a mapping relationship between the vehicle speed and the wind speed near the engine surface on the vehicle, and the control device can also pre-store the mapping relationship between the vehicle speed and the wind speed near the engine as a first corresponding relationship. Then, the control device can determine the wind speed corresponding to the target vehicle speed based on the first corresponding relationship as the expected wind speed.

[0057] In addition, during the bench test, the inventors found that there is a mapping relationship between the rotation speed of the fan and the wind speed near the engine sensed by the wind speed sensor. The control device can pre-store the mapping relationship between the rotation speed and the wind speed as a second corresponding relationship. When performing the bench test, the control device can determine the rotation speed corresponding to the expected wind speed based on the second corresponding relationship as the target rotation speed for controlling the operation of the fan. In this way, when the fan runs at the target speed, the wind speed value sensed by the wind speed sensor is the same as or close to the expected wind speed. Furthermore, during the bench test, the control device can control the wind formed by the fan near the engine to be close to the wind formed when the engine is installed on the vehicle under the same operating parameters based on the engine speed and load, so as to simulate an environment closer to the actual driving of the vehicle for the engine on the test bench, thereby facilitating the improvement of the accuracy and reliability of the bench test.

[0058] As an optional implementation, step 110 may include:

[0059] Extracting the desired wind speed carried in the control instruction from the received control instruction;

[0060] Based on a pre-stored second correspondence between the rotation speed and the wind speed, a target rotation speed corresponding to the expected wind speed is acquired, wherein the control parameter includes the expected wind speed and the target rotation speed.

[0061] Understandably, the tester can use the control device to manually input the expected wind speed, and the control device generates a control instruction based on the input expected wind speed, so that the control instruction carries the field content representing the expected wind speed. Among them, the expected wind speed can be flexibly input by the tester according to the test requirements. Then, the control device can determine the speed corresponding to the expected wind speed based on the second corresponding relationship between the speed and the wind speed, as the target speed for controlling the operation of the fan. In this way, the tester can manually input the expected wind speed to achieve flexible adjustment of the wind speed on the surface of the engine, which is conducive to meeting different test requirements.

[0062] Before step 110, the method may further include:

[0063] Acquire multiple sets of rotational speeds of the fan and wind speeds sensed by the wind speed sensor, wherein the rotational speed and wind speed in each set of data are collected in the same period of time;

[0064] According to the rotation speeds of the plurality of wind fans and the wind speeds sensed by the wind speed sensors, a corresponding relationship between the rotation speeds and the wind speeds is established as a second corresponding relationship.

[0065] In this embodiment, the rotation speed and wind speed in each set of data are collected in the same period. For example, the wind speed and the rotation speed are data collected in the same second. In addition, different wind speeds can be collected for different rotation speeds, so that multiple sets of data can be obtained. Among them, the number of sets of wind speed and rotation speed collected can be flexibly determined according to actual conditions.

[0066] After collecting multiple sets of data, with the fan speed x as the independent variable and the wind speed y at the collection point as the dependent variable, you can use tools such as Excel or Origin to perform polynomial fitting. That is, first use the fan speed x as the horizontal coordinate, the wind speed y as the vertical coordinate, and each set of data as a coordinate. Generate a scatter plot based on the multiple sets of collected data, and then perform polynomial fitting to determine one or more suitable fitting curves with the smallest error, thereby obtaining the calculation formula y=f(x) for wind speed fitting. This calculation formula can be understood as a mapping relationship or corresponding relationship between wind speed and rotation speed. In this way, the above-mentioned second corresponding relationship can be created.

[0067] Step 120 may include: controlling the rotation speed of the fan by a PID control algorithm based on the control parameter.

[0068] In this embodiment, the control device can control the speed of the fan using the PID control algorithm based on the expected wind speed in the control parameter, so that when the wind generated by the fan reaches the wind speed sensor, the actual wind speed sensed by the wind speed sensor is the same as the expected wind speed. The PID control algorithm can be implemented by the following formula:

[0069] u(t)=K P err(t)+1 / T I *∫err(t)dt+T D derr(t) / dt (1)

[0070] In formula (1), u(t) is the output value of the control device, that is, the speed of the fan; err(t) is the difference between the expected wind speed and the actual wind speed (or the difference between the real-time value of the fan speed and the speed value corresponding to the expected wind speed), K P is the proportionality coefficient, T I is the integration coefficient, T D is the differential coefficient, ∫ is the integral operator, and derr(t) is the differential operation of err(t). The control device can dynamically output the fan speed control signal using the PID control device, so that the actual wind speed at the wind speed sensor collection point approaches or is equal to the expected wind speed value.

[0071] As an optional implementation, step 120 may include: controlling the fan to operate at a target rotation speed in the control parameter.

[0072] In this embodiment, the control device can generate a PWM signal corresponding to the target speed, and output the PWM signal to the fan, so that the fan can operate at the target speed based on the PWM signal. It can be understood that different PWM signals can allow the fan to operate at different speeds, and the fan speed can be adjusted. Since there is a mapping relationship between the speed of the fan and the wind speed of the collection point. Therefore, in an indoor windless environment, when the fan runs at the target speed, the wind speed of the corresponding collection point will be equal to or close to the expected wind speed. In this way, the PWM signal can be used to achieve precise control of the wind speed of the collection point.

[0073] In this embodiment, the method may further include: when the duration that the difference between the actual wind speed and the expected wind speed is not within the preset range exceeds a set duration, issuing an alarm prompt message.

[0074] In this embodiment, the preset range and the set duration can be flexibly determined according to the actual situation. If the difference between the actual wind speed and the expected wind speed is continuously not within the preset range and the duration exceeds the set duration, it means that the expected wind speed is too high or there is a fault in the control of the control device. At this time, by issuing an alarm prompt, it is helpful for the test personnel to find the abnormal situation in time, so as to carry out timely maintenance on the abnormal problem.

[0075] Based on the above design, the control device can approximate the relationship formula between the collected fan speed value and the actual wind speed value of the corresponding test point by performing polynomial fitting, thereby realizing the control of the wind speed at the test point, so that the wind speed of the test bench corresponds to the wind speed on the engine surface when the vehicle is driving, which is beneficial to improving the accuracy of the bench test. In addition, the control device controls the fan speed through PID, which can achieve fast and accurate control of the wind speed and reduce the wind speed error. Furthermore, the fan control method has strong versatility, and different test objects or different bench test systems can use this method to control the wind speed.
