Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by persons skilled in the art without creative labor should belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

It should be understood that the data thus used can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented.

[0027] For the convenience of description, the following describes some nouns or terms related to the embodiments of the present application:

[0028] Sequential turbocharging: refers to a turbocharging system composed of two or more than two turbochargers in parallel, which can control the sequential intervention of the turbocharger according to the operating condition of the engine.

[0029] Intake and exhaust control valve: refers to a control valve added at the exhaust end and the intake end of the controlled turbocharger in order to control the intervention and cut-off of the controlled turbocharger in the sequential turbocharging system, which can control the on-off of the exhaust and intake paths of the controlled turbocharger.

[0030] As introduced in the background, the sequential turbocharging system in the prior art engine is controlled to open based on the rotation speed and the circulating oil quantity. When the circulating oil quantity is at the critical point of the opening and closing of the turbocharger intake and exhaust control valve in the sequential turbocharging system, slight fluctuation of the circulating oil quantity will cause the turbocharger intake and exhaust control valve to open and close back and forth, and then cause the turbocharger to switch back and forth between the open state and the closed state, affecting the operation and reliability of the engine. To solve the problem that the fluctuation of the circulating oil quantity in the prior art will cause the unstable switching state of the sequential turbocharger, resulting in low operation reliability of the engine, the embodiments of the present application provide a control method of a sequential turbocharging system, a control device of a sequential turbocharging system, a computer readable storage medium and an electronic device.

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0032] In the present embodiment, a control method of a sequential turbocharging system running on a mobile terminal, a computer terminal or the like is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the 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 an order different from that shown here.

[0033] Figure 1 is a flowchart of the control method of the sequential turbocharging system according to the embodiments of the present application. As shown in Figure 1 The sequential turbocharging system includes at least one controlled turbocharger, and the above-mentioned sequential turbocharging system is located in an engine. The method includes the following steps:

[0034] Step S101, obtaining the compressor inlet pressure of the controlled turbocharger, the compressor inlet pressure being the gas pressure upstream of the compressor of the controlled turbocharger;

[0035] Specifically, the supercharging system is to improve the engine performance by increasing the engine intake pressure. The sequential supercharging system is a special supercharging system that uses two or more superchargers to increase the engine intake pressure, and a supercharger is generally composed of a turbine and a compressor. By installing a multi-stage turbocharger or a turbocharger combined with a mechanical supercharger in the intake passage, the engine can obtain higher intake pressure in different speed ranges, thereby improving combustion efficiency and output power. The sequential supercharging system can achieve greater power output without compromising engine reliability.

[0036] The sequential supercharging system can increase the engine compression efficiency by increasing the intake pressure, thereby increasing the gas density and temperature in the combustion chamber, improving the combustion efficiency, and thus improving the engine power and torque output. The sequential supercharging system can also provide additional gas pressure when the engine is running, so that the engine can use fuel more efficiently and improve fuel economy. The sequential supercharging system can also improve the response speed of the engine and reduce turbo lag. In high-altitude areas, the air is thin, and the performance of the engine will decrease. The sequential supercharging system can compensate for the performance loss caused by the thin air by increasing the intake pressure, thereby improving the performance of the engine in high-altitude areas.

[0037] wherein, as shown in Figure 2 Before obtaining the compressor inlet pressure of the controlled supercharger, the method further comprises the following steps:

[0038] Step S201, obtaining the operating parameters of the engine, wherein the operating parameters at least include the speed of the engine and the torque of the engine;

[0039] Step S202, determining that the operating state of the engine is a steady state operation if the speed and the torque of the engine are within the preset parameter range within a second preset time period;

[0040] Step S203, determining to obtain the compressor inlet pressure of the controlled supercharger if the operating state of the engine is the steady state operation.

[0041] Specifically, the state judgment of the supercharger under the stable working condition of the engine can make the judgment result more accurate and avoid judgment errors caused by unstable working condition of the engine.

[0042] In some embodiments, the second preset time period can be 5 minutes, the preset range of the engine speed can be 1000±5 revolutions / minute, and the preset range of the engine torque can be 1000±20N, i.e. if the engine speed is maintained at 1000±5 revolutions / minute and the torque is maintained at 1000±20N within 5 minutes, it is determined that the engine is in a steady state operation.

[0043] Step S102, in the case that the compressor inlet pressure jumps between positive and negative values within the first preset time length, determining that the current operating state of the controlled supercharger is an unstable state, wherein the unstable state is a state in which the controlled supercharger is switched between opening and closing.

[0044] Specifically, since the sequential supercharging system in the engine is controlled to be opened based on the rotation speed and the circulating oil amount, when the circulating oil amount is at a critical point at which the supercharger inlet and exhaust control valve of the sequential supercharging system is opened and closed, slight fluctuation of the circulating oil amount will cause the supercharger inlet and exhaust control valve to be opened and closed repeatedly, and further cause the supercharger to be switched between the open state and the closed state repeatedly, thereby affecting the operation and reliability of the engine. Therefore, it is necessary to stably control the opening and closing state of the supercharger, so as to stably operate the sequential supercharger, and further stably operate the engine, thereby ensuring the reliability of the engine.

[0045] Specifically, the method further comprises the following steps:

[0046] Specifically, in this way, the controlled supercharger with unstable opening and closing state can be accurately determined, so as to accurately control the supercharger.

[0047] Step S103, in the case that the current operating state of the controlled supercharger is the unstable state, forcibly opening the controlled supercharger.

[0048] Specifically, when the engine is in stable operation, the compressor inlet pressure of the engine is monitored in real time, and if the compressor inlet pressure repeatedly changes between positive and negative values, the controlled supercharger corresponding to the compressor is forcibly opened, which can effectively prevent the sequential supercharger from being switched repeatedly, so as to stably operate the sequential supercharger, and further stably operate the engine, thereby ensuring the reliability of the engine.

[0049] Specifically, the method further comprises the following steps:

[0050] Step S301, obtaining a first turbine inlet temperature and a second turbine inlet temperature, the first turbine inlet temperature being an exhaust temperature upstream of a turbine of the basic supercharger, and the second turbine inlet temperature being an exhaust temperature upstream of a turbine of the controlled supercharger;

[0051] Step S302, in a case where both the first turbine inlet temperature and the second turbine inlet temperature are less than or equal to a first temperature threshold, determining that a current state of the engine is a stable state;

[0052] Step S303, in a case where at least one of the first turbine inlet temperature and the second turbine inlet temperature is greater than the first temperature threshold, forcibly closing the controlled supercharger.

[0053] Generally, the basic supercharger is always open, and only the controlled supercharger is controlled to be open or closed, that is, the basic supercharger is always in an open state, and in a case where the engine load increases, a controlled supercharger is opened according to actual conditions, which is a first-stage supercharger, and in a case where the engine load continues to increase, a second controlled supercharger is opened, and so on.

[0054] Therefore, in a case where a controlled supercharger is opened, the basic supercharger is also actually in a running state at this time, and the turbine inlet temperature of the basic supercharger and the turbine inlet temperature of the opened controlled supercharger need to be judged at the same time.

[0055] Specifically, according to the turbine inlet temperature, it can be determined whether the engine can be stably operated in the current state, and if the turbine inlet temperature of the engine at this time meets the design requirement, the engine can be stably operated in this state, and if the turbine inlet temperature is out of limit, the controlled supercharger is closed.

[0056] The first temperature threshold can be 700°C.

[0057] In a case where at least one of the first turbine inlet temperature and the second turbine inlet temperature is greater than the temperature threshold, after the controlled supercharger is forcibly closed, the method further includes the following steps:

[0058] Step S304, obtaining a first supercharger speed and a second supercharger speed, the first supercharger speed being a speed of the basic supercharger, and the second supercharger speed being a speed of the controlled supercharger;

[0059] Step S305, in a case where both the first supercharger speed and the second supercharger speed are less than or equal to a first speed threshold, determining that a current state of the engine is a stable state;

[0060] Step S306, in the case that at least one of the first supercharger speed and the second supercharger speed is greater than the first speed threshold, the engine is controlled to reduce the operating load to the first target load.

[0061] Specifically, according to the supercharger speed, it can be determined whether the engine can be stably operated in the current state. If the supercharger speed is not over the limit, it proves that the engine can be stably operated, and if the supercharger speed is over the limit, the engine is reduced in load.

[0062] In the case that a controlled supercharger is started, the basic supercharger is also actually in an operating state at this time, and the speed of the basic supercharger and the speed of the started controlled supercharger need to be judged at the same time.

[0063] The first speed threshold can be set to 80000 rpm.

[0064] The sequential supercharging system includes a basic supercharger and a plurality of controlled superchargers. In the case that the current operating state of the controlled supercharger is the unstable state, after the controlled supercharger is forced to be started, the method further includes the following steps:

[0065] Step S401, a plurality of third turbine inlet exhaust temperatures and fourth turbine inlet exhaust temperatures are obtained. The third turbine inlet exhaust temperature is the exhaust temperature upstream of the turbine of a non-target supercharger, and the fourth turbine inlet exhaust temperature is the exhaust temperature upstream of the turbine of a target supercharger. The target supercharger is the controlled supercharger whose current operating state is the unstable state, and the non-target supercharger is one of all the controlled superchargers and the basic supercharger except the target supercharger.

[0066] Step S402, in the case that all the third turbine inlet exhaust temperatures and the fourth turbine inlet exhaust temperatures are less than or equal to a second temperature threshold, it is determined that the operating state of the engine at the current time is a stable state.

[0067] Step S403, in the case that at least one of all the third turbine inlet exhaust temperatures and the fourth turbine inlet exhaust temperatures is greater than the second temperature threshold, the controlled supercharger is forced to be closed.

[0068] From the above content, it can be known that the basic supercharger is always open, and only the controlled superchargers can be controlled to be started or closed, that is, the basic supercharger is always in an open state, and each controlled supercharger is a primary supercharger, a secondary supercharger, and so on. According to the size of the engine load, each level of supercharger is started in turn.

[0069] Therefore, in the case of opening the second controlled supercharger, the basic supercharger and the first controlled supercharger are actually in the running state at this time, and the pre-turbine exhaust temperature of the basic supercharger, the pre-turbine exhaust temperature of the opened first controlled supercharger and the pre-turbine exhaust temperature of the opened second controlled supercharger need to be judged at the same time. Since the controlled supercharger with a higher stage than the second supercharger is in the closed state, the pre-turbine exhaust temperature will not exceed the limit, so the judgment result is the same.

[0070] Specifically, according to the pre-turbine exhaust temperature, it can be determined whether the engine can stably run in the current state. If the pre-turbine exhaust temperature of the engine at this time meets the design requirements, the engine can stably run in this state. If the pre-turbine exhaust temperature exceeds the limit, the controlled supercharger is closed.

[0071] The second temperature threshold can be 700℃.

[0072] In the case where all of the above third pre-turbine exhaust temperature and the above fourth pre-turbine exhaust temperature are greater than the above temperature threshold, after the above controlled supercharger is forced to be closed, the method further comprises the following steps:

[0073] Step S404, obtaining a plurality of third supercharger speeds and fourth supercharger speeds, the third supercharger speed being the speed of the non-target supercharger, and the fourth supercharger speed being the speed of the target supercharger;

[0074] Step S405, in the case where all of the above third supercharger speed and the above fourth supercharger speed are less than or equal to a second speed threshold, determining that the running state of the engine at the current time is a stable state;

[0075] Step S406, in the case where at least one of the above third supercharger speed and the above fourth supercharger speed is greater than the above second speed threshold, controlling the engine to reduce the running load to a second target load.

[0076] Specifically, according to the supercharger speed, it can be determined whether the engine can stably run in the current state. If the supercharger speed does not exceed the limit, it proves that the engine can stably run, and if the supercharger speed exceeds the limit, the engine runs at a reduced load.

[0077] In the case of opening the second controlled supercharger, the basic supercharger and the first controlled supercharger are actually in the running state at this time, and the speed of the basic supercharger, the speed of the opened first controlled supercharger and the speed of the opened second controlled supercharger need to be judged at the same time. Since the controlled supercharger with a higher stage than the second supercharger is in the closed state, the speed will not exceed the limit, so the judgment result is the same.

[0078] The second speed threshold can be set to 80000 rpm.

[0079] The control method of the above-mentioned sequential supercharging system of the present application first obtains the compressor inlet pressure of the controlled supercharger, where the compressor inlet pressure is the gas pressure upstream of the compressor of the controlled supercharger; then, when the compressor inlet pressure jumps between positive and negative values ​​within a first preset time period, determines that the current operating state of the controlled supercharger is an unstable state, wherein the unstable state is the state in which the controlled supercharger switches between on and off; finally, when the current operating state of the controlled supercharger is an unstable state, forcibly turns on the controlled supercharger. The method determines whether the sequential supercharger is in an abnormal state of switching back and forth by monitoring the compressor inlet pressure of the engine. In the case of the abnormal state of switching back and forth of the sequential supercharger, the method ensures the stable operation of the supercharger by forcibly turning on or off the next controlled supercharger or reducing the load of the engine, thereby ensuring the reliability of the engine, and solving the problem in the prior art that the fluctuation of the circulating oil amount will cause the unstable switching state of the sequential supercharger, resulting in low operating reliability of the engine.

[0080] 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 control method of the sequential boosting system of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0081] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a sequential three-boost system is shown in Figure 1. Figure 3 As shown, the sequential three-supercharging system includes a basic supercharger and two controlled superchargers, namely the first controlled supercharger and the second controlled supercharger. The sequential three-supercharging system includes a first exhaust pipe 01, a second exhaust pipe 02, a first cylinder head 03, a second cylinder head 04, a first intake pipe 05, a second intake pipe 06, an intercooler 07, a basic turbine 08, a basic compressor 09, a first turbine 10, a second turbine 11, a first compressor 12, a second compressor 13, a first intake control valve 14, a second intake control valve 15, a first exhaust control valve 16, a second exhaust control valve 17, a first air filter 18, a second air filter 19, and an exhaust tail pipe 20. Among them, the basic turbine 08 and the basic compressor 09 constitute the basic supercharger, the first turbine 10 and the first compressor 12 constitute the first controlled supercharger, and the second turbine 11 and the second compressor 13 constitute the second controlled supercharger. The turbocharger activation sequence is as follows: the base turbocharger is always on, the first controlled turbocharger is activated when certain conditions are met, and the second controlled turbocharger is activated only after the first controlled turbocharger is activated and the second controlled turbocharger activation conditions are met. The arrows indicate the direction of exhaust flow. Specifically, when the engine is under light load, only the base turbocharger is activated; when the engine is under medium load, the base turbocharger and the first controlled turbocharger are activated; and when the engine is under heavy load, the base turbocharger, the first controlled turbocharger, and the second controlled turbocharger are activated.

[0082] Based on the sequential three supercharging system of Figure 3 the embodiment, a specific control method of the sequential supercharging system is provided, as shown in Figure 4 During the engine operation, first, the engine is judged to be in steady state operation through the rotation speed and torque, and when the engine is in steady state operation, the pressure inlet of the first controlled supercharger and the second controlled supercharger is judged to be changed between positive and negative values. Since the controlled superchargers are sequentially opened one by one, only one of the compressors of the first controlled supercharger and the second controlled supercharger will be changed between positive and negative values. For example, in the case that the compressor of the first controlled supercharger is changed between positive and negative values, it can be judged that the first controlled supercharger is switched between opening and closing, and at this time, the first controlled supercharger needs to be forcibly opened.

Finally, the rotation speed of the base supercharger and the first controlled supercharger is judged, and when the rotation speed of the base supercharger and the first controlled supercharger is not over the limit value, the engine can be stably operated in this state, and when one of the rotation speeds of the base supercharger and the first controlled supercharger is over the limit value, the engine needs to be operated at a reduced load to protect the supercharger and the engine.
