[0025] For the sake of convenience of description, some nouns or terms related to the embodiments of this application are described below:

[0029] Lambda: The ratio of the actual amount of air required to burn a certain amount of fuel to the theoretical amount of air.
[0030] As introduced in the background art, currently natural gas engines generally use three-way catalytic converters to treat the generated exhaust gas. The three-way catalytic converter can convert CO, HC and NOx into CO2, H2O and N2 through catalytic oxidation and reduction reactions; however, during the long-term operation of natural gas engines, due to the three-way catalytic converter being in a high-temperature and rich water vapor environment for a long time, the situation of hydrothermal aging will gradually occur, resulting in a change in the optimal working lambda window value of the three-way catalytic converter, making the currently adopted fixed lambda window unable to achieve the best efficiency after the three-way catalytic converter ages. To solve the problem that the lambda window value in the existing technology engine cannot be adjusted and the best efficiency cannot be achieved after the three-way catalytic converter ages, the embodiments of this application provide an emission window correction method, an exhaust gas treatment system, a controller and a computer-readable storage medium.
[0031] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0032] In this embodiment, a method for correcting an emission window running on a mobile terminal, a computer terminal or a similar computing device is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. And although the logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in a different order than here.
[0033] In the prior art, an emission window correction method based on a catalytic converter aging factor is usually used. According to the change of the readings of the front and rear oxygen sensors, under appropriate working conditions, the oxygen flow is integrated to obtain the current oxygen storage capacity of the TWC, and then it is compared with the oxygen storage capacities of the TWC fresh part, the critical aging part and the critical aging factor, and the aging factor of the current TWC is interpolated and calculated. Finally, this aging factor is used to correct the emission window.
[0034] Due to the oxygen storage characteristic of the TWC, oxygen is stored in the lean mixture stage, and when the rich mixture stage occurs, the stored oxygen reacts with the exhaust gas. As the catalytic converter ages, its oxygen storage capacity will decrease. Therefore, the conversion efficiency of the catalytic converter can be indirectly reflected by the oxygen storage capacity. The emission window correction method based on the catalytic converter aging factor adopted in the prior art is to indirectly reflect the aging degree of the TWC according to the size of the oxygen storage capacity, and then correct the emission window according to the aging factor. Among them, the calculation of the oxygen storage amount is to determine the start and end of the integration of the oxygen flow according to the change of the voltage value of the switching oxygen sensor. The oxygen storage amount actually calculated in this way is not accurate and is easily affected by factors such as working conditions and the external environment. Moreover, the working conditions for its calculation are relatively special and the final release conditions are relatively complex, resulting in poor timeliness of the aging factor calculated in this way. In addition, the aging degree of the TWC has a greater impact on the reduction ability of NOx in the emissions. The size of the oxygen storage amount and the reduction ability of the TWC for NOx are not an absolute linear relationship. Therefore, the aging factor calculated by this method cannot accurately judge the conversion efficiency of the current TWC for NOx and cannot effectively correct the emission window, thus affecting the control of emissions such as NOx throughout the life cycle of the TWC.
[0035] Among them, before starting the closed-loop correction, it is generally necessary to judge the working conditions and release conditions, that is, to judge whether the current state of the engine can perform closed-loop correction. Specifically, the engine needs to maintain a steady state and have no faults, and the following conditions need to be met:
[0036] 1. Steady state conditions and working condition range limitations, that is, parameters such as the engine speed and intake impulse are within a certain range;
[0037] 2. Ambient temperature and ambient pressure range limits. Generally, the ambient temperature is -40°C to 50°C, and the ambient pressure range limit is generally 1000 Pa;
[0038] 3. The downstream NOx sensor (nitrogen oxide sensor) is ready, that is, the downstream NOx sensor can be used normally;
[0039] 4. The engine temperature is within a certain range, generally 84°C to 87°C;
[0040] 5. The after-treatment temperature is within a certain range, that is, the exhaust gas temperature is within a certain range;
[0041] 6. The upstream lambda is within the limit range;
[0042] 7. The filtered downstream NOx is within a certain range;
[0043] 8. The lambda closed-loop is turned on;
[0044] 9. No fault is triggered.
[0045] When the conditions are met, the calculation of the release power window is allowed and the timer is triggered. Figure 1 is a flowchart of the emission window correction method according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the method includes the following steps:
[0046] Step S201, obtain the true speed of the engine, the true torque of the engine, the emission flow rate of the engine, and the oxygen content in the pollutants of the engine under the current working condition. The emission flow rate is the emission flow rate of the pollutants after being treated by the three-way catalytic converter, and the oxygen content is the oxygen content in the pollutants after being treated by the three-way catalytic converter;
[0047] Step S202, determine the specific emission target value of the engine according to the true speed and the true torque of the engine. The specific emission target value is the mass of the pollutants emitted per unit time when the engine outputs unit output work;
[0048] Among them, as Figure 2 shown, the specific implementation steps of step S202 are as follows:
[0049] Step S2021, determine the current actual power according to the true speed and the true torque of the engine. Among them, the current actual power can be calculated according to formula 1 to formula 4;
[0050] P = F × V (formula 1)
[0051]
[0052] P = T×ω (Formula 3)
[0053] P = T×2πn (Formula 4)
[0054] Among them, P is the current actual power, F is the torque, V is the linear velocity in the direction of F, T is the true torque of the above engine, ω is the angular velocity, R is the acting radius, and n is the true rotational speed of the above engine.
[0055] Since the unit of the true rotational speed of the above engine in Formulas 1 to 4 is (revolutions per minute), the unit of the current actual power is (w), 60 in Formula 5 is the unit conversion between minutes and seconds, 1000 in Formula 5 is the unit conversion between watts and kilowatts, and 9550 in Formula 6 is obtained by substituting π in Formula 5 with 3.14. The specific calculation process is shown in the following Formulas 5 - 6:
[0056]
[0057]
[0058] At this time, the unit of power in Formula 6 is (kw), and the unit of the true rotational speed of the engine is (revolutions per second).
[0059] Step S2022: Determine the cumulative work within a predetermined time period and the duration of the above - mentioned predetermined time period according to the above - mentioned current actual power. The above - mentioned cumulative work is obtained by integrating multiple above - mentioned current actual powers within the above - mentioned predetermined time period. Among them, the cumulative work within the above - mentioned predetermined time is a window;
[0060] Step S2023: Determine the average rotational speed and the average intake charge according to the above - mentioned cumulative work and the duration of the above - mentioned predetermined time period. The above - mentioned average rotational speed is the average rotational speed of the above - mentioned engine within the above - mentioned predetermined time period, and the above - mentioned average intake charge is the average intake charge of the above - mentioned engine within the above - mentioned predetermined time period. Among them, the average rotational speed is the integrated rotational speed divided by the predetermined time; the average intake charge is the integrated intake charge divided by the predetermined time;
[0061] Step S2024: Determine the above - mentioned specific emission target value according to the above - mentioned average rotational speed and the above - mentioned average intake charge. Generally, it is obtained by looking up the MAP table.
[0062] Among them, under the cumulative work (or time) window, by comprehensively analyzing the operating condition information and the rich - lean situation within the window, the closed - loop control of NOx specific emission can be achieved.
[0063] Step S203: Determine the average specific emission value of the engine based on the actual rotational speed, actual torque, and emission flow rate of the engine. The average specific emission value is the average mass of pollutants actually emitted by the engine during a predetermined period when the engine outputs a unit of output work.
[0064] Among them, as Figure 3 shown, the specific implementation steps included in Step S203 are as follows:
[0065] Step S2031: Determine the cumulative work during the predetermined period based on the current actual power. The cumulative work is obtained by integrating multiple current actual powers during the predetermined period. Among them, the current actual power is determined based on the actual rotational speed and actual torque of the engine. The specific determination method is as shown in Step S2021.
[0066] Step S2032: Integrate the emission flow rate during the predetermined period to obtain the emission amount.
[0067] Step S2033: Determine the average specific emission value based on the emission amount and the cumulative work. The average specific emission value is the ratio of the emission amount to the cumulative work.
[0068] By calculating the average specific emission value under a fixed window, the lambda value is adjusted using the deviation condition between the actual average specific emission value and the theoretical target specific emission value to achieve closed-loop control of NOx.
[0069] Step S204: Determine the lambda correction value based on the specific emission target value, the average specific emission value, and the direction control factor, and adaptively correct the lambda to be corrected using the lambda correction value. Among them, the direction control factor is determined based on the oxygen content. The direction control factor is a factor for controlling the correction direction of the lambda to be corrected. The lambda to be corrected is the current lambda emission window value of the three-way catalytic converter.
[0070] To control the correction direction of the lambda to be corrected, the method further includes: when the oxygen content is less than or equal to the preset content, the direction control factor is a first-type direction factor, and the first-type direction factor is a negative value; when the oxygen content is greater than the preset content, the direction control factor is a second-type direction factor, and the second-type direction factor is a positive value.
[0071] Specifically, when the oxygen content is less than or equal to the preset content, it is considered that the current emissions are mainly NH3. When the oxygen content is greater than the preset content, it is considered that the current emissions are mainly NOx.
[0072] Among them, determining the lambda correction value according to the above specific emission target value, the above average specific emission value and the direction control factor includes: determining a correction deviation value according to the above specific emission target value and the above average specific emission value, where the correction deviation value is the difference between the above specific emission target value and the above average specific emission value; performing normalization processing on the above correction deviation value to obtain a normalization result; determining the above lambda correction value according to the above normalization result and the above direction control factor, where the above lambda correction value is obtained through PID control of the product of the above normalization result and the above direction control factor.
[0073] Specifically, normalization is a dimensionless processing method that makes the absolute value of the physical system value become a relationship of a certain relative value. For example, for a system with a sampling frequency of 500 hz, the normalized frequency of 400 hz is 400 / 500 = 0.8, and the normalized frequency range is 0 - 1; PID control is proportional-integral-derivative control, that is, a control deviation is formed according to the given value and the actual output value, and the deviation is linearly combined by proportion, integral and derivative to form a control quantity to control the controlled object.
[0074] Before determining the above lambda correction value according to the above normalization result and the above direction control factor, the above method further includes: determining the average speed and the average intake charge of the above engine according to the actual speed and the actual torque of the above engine; obtaining an amplitude correction factor, where the amplitude correction factor is the product of multiple correlation coefficients, and the correlation coefficients are at least one of the following: the aging correction coefficient of the above three-way catalytic converter, the correction coefficient of the post-treatment temperature, the concentration correction coefficient of nitrogen oxides downstream of the above three-way catalytic converter; determining the proportional adjustment coefficient of the above PID control according to the above average speed and the above average intake charge, where the proportional adjustment coefficient is used to quickly adjust the error generated in the above PID control; determining the integral adjustment coefficient of the above PID control according to the above average speed, the above average intake charge and the above amplitude correction factor, where the integral adjustment coefficient is used to adjust the steady-state time in the above PID control. Among them, the proportional adjustment coefficient is the Kp coefficient in the PID calculation, and generally is obtained by looking up the MAP according to the above average speed and the above average intake charge, and the integral adjustment coefficient is the Ki coefficient in the PID calculation, and generally is calculated by taking the above average speed and the above average intake charge as the basic MAP and then multiplying by the amplitude correction factor.
[0075] Generally, the above correlation coefficients are mainly composed of the following parts:
[0076] 1. The three-way catalytic converter aging coefficient is checked by CUR correction;
[0077] 2. Upstream lambda maximum change rate within the window checks CUR correction;
[0078] 3. Upstream lambda average value within the window checks CUR correction
[0079] 4. Post-treatment temperature (exhaust gas temperature behind the turbine, temperature upstream of the TWC) and its maximum change rate within the window checks MAP correction;
[0080] 5. Upstream lambda average change rate within the window checks CUR correction;
[0081] 6. Maximum change rate of rotational speed and intake air volume within the window checks MAP correction;
[0082] 7. Correction factor obtained from the average rotational speed and average intake air charge of the current window checks CUR correction;
[0083] 8. Downstream NOx concentration checks CUR correction;
[0084] The values of the above coefficients are all between 0 and 1. Among them, the amplitude correction factor can also be used to correct the amplitude of the lambda to be corrected.
[0085] After determining the lambda correction value according to the above specific emission target value, the above average specific emission value and the direction control factor, and adaptively correcting the lambda to be corrected using the above lambda correction value, the above method further includes: adaptively correcting the lambda to be corrected according to the above lambda correction value to obtain the corrected lambda value; applying the above corrected lambda value to the next working condition, where the true rotational speed of the engine in the above next working condition is the same as the true rotational speed of the engine in the current working condition and the true torque of the engine in the above next working condition is the same as the true torque of the engine in the current working condition; obtaining the pollutant emission value under the same working condition after applying the above corrected lambda value; and storing the above corrected lambda value in the data table when the above pollutant emission value meets the preset conditions. Among them, the above data table can be a self-learning MAP table, and the above preset condition is that the weight of the pollutants emitted by the engine is lower than the limit. The lambda window correction amount needs to be verified through the same working condition window before being written into the full working condition self-learning MAP to ensure the effectiveness of the correction. It can verify whether the lambda correction amount output by the current window is effective. After confirming the reduction of emissions under the same working condition, it is written into the full working condition MAP to participate in the adjustment of lambda to ensure the effectiveness of the correction.
[0086] Specifically, according to different operating conditions of the engine, the above method can be used to calculate different corrected lambda values and confirm them, that is, apply the corrected lambda value to the next operating condition identical to the current one, and obtain the pollutant emission value under this condition. After successful confirmation, multiple corrected lambda values can be written into the self-learning MAP table, so that the multiple corrected lambda values output by this MAP are valid for the entire operating condition. During this process, the aging adaptive correction of the emission window is realized.
[0087] In order to enable those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the technical solution of the present application, the implementation process of the emission window correction method of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0088] This embodiment relates to a specific emission window correction method. As Figure 4 shown, first, when the engine meets the release condition, start the adaptive enabling (i.e., start the adaptive correction), then calculate the cumulative work and emissions within a predetermined time period, and then determine the average specific emission value and the target specific emission value based on the cumulative work, the duration of the predetermined time period, and the emissions. Then calculate the difference between the above specific emission target value and the above average specific emission value as the correction deviation value. At the same time, determine the direction control factor according to the oxygen concentration measured by the nitrogen oxide sensor, obtain the amplitude correction factor based on multiple relevant parameters, adaptively correct and confirm the lambda to be corrected under multiple operating conditions according to the direction control factor, the amplitude correction factor, and the correction deviation value. Finally, write the confirmed multiple corrected lambda values into the self-learning MAP table, so that the multiple corrected lambda values output by this MAP are valid for the entire operating condition. Re-entering the same operating condition can directly use the correction value in the self-learning MAP for correction, improving the real-time performance and reducing the emissions. During the above correction process, the aging adaptive correction of the emission window is realized.
