Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of gas leakage processing, in particular to an ammonia leakage processing method and device, a computer readable storage medium and a hybrid vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] Nitrogen oxide (NOx) is a key emission pollutant of diesel engines. With the further tightening of emission regulations, SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction, SCR for short) is commonly used to control NOx emissions. In the SCR carrier, NH3 decomposed from urea and NOx in the exhaust gas undergo catalytic reduction reaction. Most of the NH3 is reacted, and the NH3 that is not reacted is stored in the SCR carrier. When the urea injection amount is insufficient or the urea is stopped, the stored NH3 in the SCR carrier can continue to react with the NOx of the exhaust gas to reduce emissions. The ammonia storage capacity of the SCR carrier is related to the temperature of the SCR carrier. When the temperature is low, the ammonia storage capacity is strong. With the increase of temperature, the ammonia storage capacity gradually decreases. Especially when the temperature of the carrier rises sharply, the stored ammonia in the SCR carrier will escape rapidly. The ASC (Ammonia Slip Catalyst, ASC for short) cannot fully oxidize the released NH3, resulting in part of the NH3 being measured by the downstream NOx sensor, causing the emission to exceed the standard and reporting a 1.2 fault.

[0003] At present, many models have the problem of large ammonia leakage during temperature rise, especially light products. The aftertreatment volume is small, and the operating boundary is sensitive. The ammonia leakage during temperature rise is large, which leads to emission over-limit and high 1.2 fault rate.

[0040] In the embodiments, a processing method of ammonia leakage 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 a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that herein.

[0041] Figure 2 is a flowchart of the processing method of ammonia leakage according to the embodiments of the present application. As shown in Figure 2 applied to a hybrid system including at least an engine, a motor and a power battery, the method includes the following steps:

[0042] In step S201, the mass flow of nitrogen oxides before a post-processing step and the mass flow of nitrogen oxides after the post-processing step are obtained respectively to obtain a first mass flow and a second mass flow, and the catalyst utilization rate is determined according to the first mass flow and the second mass flow, wherein the post-processing step represents an exhaust treatment step of the engine, and the catalyst utilization rate represents the utilization rate of a catalyst in a selective catalytic reducer;

[0043] Specifically, the catalyst in the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) is generally ammonia, and the ammonia storage in the SCR carrier can be predicted based on the catalyst utilization rate, i.e., the actual utilization rate of ammonia, by the following method: the mass flow rate of NOx before the aftertreatment step is subtracted from the mass flow rate of NOx after the aftertreatment step to obtain the mass flow rate of NOx converted by the aftertreatment; the actual urea consumption flow rate consumed to convert the NOx is calculated, and the actual urea consumption flow rate divided by the actual urea injection flow rate is the actual urea utilization rate, i.e., the catalyst utilization rate.

[0044] In step S202, the current temperature of the selective catalytic reducer is obtained, and the ammonia storage in the selective catalytic reducer is determined according to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature;

[0045] Specifically, the ammonia storage can be predicted based on the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature of the SCR. In theory, when the SCR carrier, i.e., the selective catalytic reducer, has no ammonia storage, the utilization rate of urea is determined by the conversion efficiency, and the conversion efficiency of the SCR is directly related to the temperature of the SCR carrier, and the two are a relatively certain relationship curve. However, when there is ammonia storage in the SCR carrier, the stored ammonia also participates in the conversion of NOx, thereby increasing the utilization rate of urea. Therefore, the ammonia storage in the SCR carrier can be predicted based on the actual utilization rate of urea and the temperature of the SCR carrier. Under the condition of a certain temperature, the higher the actual utilization rate of urea is, the higher the level of ammonia stored in the carrier is.

[0046] In step S203, at least when the ammonia storage is greater than a preset ammonia threshold and the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, the torque of the engine is switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia, wherein the exhaust temperature of the engine under the first ammonia cleaning torque is lower than the exhaust temperature of the engine under a battery power distribution torque, and the battery power distribution torque is a torque automatically distributed according to the state of charge of the power battery.

[0047] Specifically, the ammonia leakage risk state is identified based on the predicted ammonia storage and the temperature of the SCR: the ammonia storage is compared with the preset ammonia threshold, and when it is greater, it is considered that the carrier is in a high ammonia storage state; and when the temperature of the SCR is greater than the preset temperature threshold, it is considered that the engine is in a high temperature state; at least when the above two conditions are met, the temperature of the SCR carrier needs to be controlled in time to reduce ammonia leakage. Specifically, the torque of the engine can be switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque, and the exhaust temperature of the engine under the first ammonia cleaning torque is relatively low to reduce the exhaust temperature of the aftertreatment.

[0048] According to the embodiment, the mass flow of nitrogen oxides before and after the post-processing step is obtained respectively, and the catalyst utilization rate is determined according to the mass flow, wherein the post-processing refers to the exhaust treatment of the engine, and the catalyst utilization rate refers to the utilization rate of the catalyst in the selective catalytic reduction device; the current temperature of the selective catalytic reduction device is obtained, the ammonia storage in the selective catalytic reduction device is determined according to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature; and at least in the case that the ammonia storage is greater than a preset ammonia threshold and the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, the torque of the engine is switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia, wherein the exhaust temperature of the engine at the first ammonia cleaning torque is lower than the exhaust temperature of the engine at the battery power distribution torque, and the battery power distribution torque is a torque automatically distributed according to the battery power state of the power battery. In the prior art, the problem of ammonia leakage of the engine during the sharp temperature rise process cannot be solved. In the present application, the ammonia storage is predicted according to the catalyst utilization rate, and the torque of the engine is controlled according to the ammonia storage to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia. Therefore, the problem of lack of solution to ammonia leakage during the sharp temperature rise process in the prior art is solved, and the effect of reducing ammonia leakage is achieved.

[0049] In the implementation process, the step S202 of determining the ammonia storage in the selective catalytic reduction device according to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature can be implemented by the following steps: step S2021 of obtaining a one-to-one mapping relationship between the catalyst utilization rate, the current temperature and the predicted ammonia storage; and step S2022 of determining the predicted ammonia storage corresponding to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature according to the one-to-one mapping relationship to obtain the ammonia storage. This method determines the ammonia storage by the above steps, which can accurately predict the current catalyst storage.

[0050] Specifically, since the SCR conversion efficiency is directly related to the temperature of the SCR carrier, i.e., the catalyst utilization rate, the current temperature and the predicted ammonia storage have a one-to-one mapping relationship, which can be in the form of a curve or a table, etc., therefore, the predicted ammonia storage corresponding to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature can be determined by the one-to-one mapping relationship, i.e., the current ammonia storage.

[0051] In some optional embodiments, the step S203 of switching the torque of the engine to the first ammonia cleaning torque can be implemented by the following steps: a step S2031 of obtaining a historical temperature of the selective catalytic reducer, and calculating a temperature difference between the current temperature and the historical temperature, wherein the historical temperature represents a temperature at a time point before the current time corresponding to the current temperature; and a step S2032 of determining that the engine is in the ammonia leakage high-risk state and switching the torque of the engine to the first ammonia cleaning torque when the ammonia storage is greater than the preset ammonia threshold, the current temperature is greater than the preset temperature threshold, the temperature difference is positive, and the temperature difference is greater than a preset temperature difference. The method further determines the switching of the torque of the engine to the first ammonia cleaning torque through the above steps, so as to more accurately determine the ammonia leakage risk and take further measures to prevent long-term ammonia leakage.

[0052] In the implementation process, in order to further determine the ammonia leakage risk, it is also necessary to judge the temperature variation range of the SCR carrier, i.e., the selective catalytic reducer, i.e., whether it is a rapid temperature rising process. It can be judged by whether the temperature difference between the historical temperature at a certain time point before the current time corresponding to the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature difference. The historical time point can be 10 minutes before the current time, and when the condition is met, it indicates that the engine is in the ammonia leakage high-risk state, and the torque of the engine is switched to the first ammonia cleaning torque.

[0053] In some optional embodiments, the step S203 of switching the torque of the engine to the first ammonia cleaning torque can be implemented by the following steps: a step S2033 of obtaining a current battery power state of the power battery; and a step S2034 of switching the torque of the engine to the first ammonia cleaning torque when the current battery power state indicates that the battery power of the power battery is greater than a preset power threshold. The method switches the torque when the current SOC (State of Charge, SOC for short) of the power battery indicates that the battery power is sufficient, so as to ensure that the engine has sufficient power.

[0054] Specifically, in order to ensure that the engine has sufficient power, the entering of the ammonia cleaning mode is triggered only when the engine is in the ammonia leakage high-risk state and the current SOC (battery power) is greater than a preset power threshold.

[0055] In some optional embodiments, after the torque of the engine is switched to the first ammonia-free torque, the method further comprises the following steps: step S204, obtaining a total demand torque; and step S205, calculating a difference between the total demand torque and the first ammonia-free torque to obtain a second ammonia-free torque of the electric motor, and switching the torque of the electric motor to the second ammonia-free torque, wherein the total demand torque is greater than the first ammonia-free torque. The method controls the torque of the electric motor to be converted through the above steps, so that the total torque load torque demand can be guaranteed.

[0056] In a specific implementation process, the total demand torque minus the engine set torque in the first ammonia-free mode obtains the set load of the electric motor in the ammonia-free mode, so as to control the electric motor to work. This control mode can effectively monitor the ammonia leakage risk state of the aftertreatment, and effectively reduce the exhaust temperature and the occurrence of ammonia leakage by controlling the engine torque when ammonia leakage is detected to have a high risk, thereby reducing the failure rate of more than 1.2.

[0057] In some optional embodiments, the step S201 of obtaining the mass flow rates of nitrogen oxides before and after the aftertreatment, and determining the catalyst utilization rate according to the first mass flow rate and the second mass flow rate can be achieved by the following steps: step S2011, calculating a difference between the first mass flow rate and the second mass flow rate to obtain a conversion mass flow rate, and determining the catalyst utilization rate according to the conversion mass flow rate.

[0058] In a specific implementation process, the first NOx mass flow rate minus the second NOx mass flow rate obtains the conversion mass flow rate; the actual urea flow rate consumed for converting the NOx is calculated, and the actual urea consumption flow rate is divided by the actual urea injection flow rate to obtain the actual urea utilization rate.

[0059] In some optional embodiments, the step S2012 can be achieved by the following steps: obtaining a conversion coefficient, calculating a product of the conversion mass flow rate and the conversion coefficient to obtain a catalyst consumption amount, wherein the conversion coefficient represents a conversion rate between the nitrogen oxides and the catalyst; obtaining a catalyst injection amount, and calculating a ratio of the catalyst consumption amount to the catalyst injection amount to obtain the catalyst utilization rate. The method calculates the catalyst utilization rate through the above steps, so that the catalyst utilization rate can be accurately calculated.

[0060] Specifically, the conversion relationship between NOx and urea can be determined by a conversion coefficient, so that the catalyst consumption amount is obtained by multiplying the conversion mass flow rate and the conversion coefficient; and the ratio of the catalyst consumption amount to the catalyst injection amount can obtain the catalyst utilization rate.

[0061] In order for those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the technical solutions of the present application, the implementation process of the ammonia leakage processing method of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0062] Figure 3 A structural schematic diagram of a hybrid vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, which includes an engine, a clutch, a drive motor / generator, a power battery / BMS, a motor controller / MCU and an AMT system. Both the engine and the motor can drive the wheels alone, or can work together to drive the vehicle. When the power battery is insufficient, the engine can also charge the battery in combination with the motor.

[0063] The present embodiment relates to a specific ammonia leakage processing method, as shown, comprising the following steps: Figure 4

[0064] Step S1: subtract the original exhaust (before the aftertreatment step) NOx mass flow from the tail exhaust (after the aftertreatment step) NOx mass flow to obtain the conversion mass flow, calculate the product of the conversion mass flow and the NOx and urea conversion coefficient to obtain the actual urea consumption;

[0065] Step S2: calculate the ratio of the actual urea consumption to the actual urea injection flow to obtain the actual urea utilization rate;

[0066] Step S3: obtain the current temperature of the SCR, and determine the corresponding predicted ammonia storage (ammonia storage) according to the catalyst utilization rate (actual urea utilization rate) and the current temperature by looking up the ammonia storage prediction MAP;

[0067] Step S4: if the predicted ammonia storage (ammonia storage) is greater than the preset ammonia threshold, determine that the engine is in a high ammonia storage state;

[0068] Step S5: if the temperature difference between the current temperature and the historical temperature of the SCR is greater than the temperature rise amplitude threshold and the current temperature is greater than the preset temperature threshold, determine that the engine is in a high ammonia leakage risk state; Figure 5 A relationship curve diagram of the SCR carrier temperature and the conversion efficiency provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, which is obtained by Figure 5 It can be seen that the SCR conversion efficiency is directly related to the temperature of the SCR carrier, and the two are a relatively certain relationship curve;

[0069] Step S6: if the current SOC is greater than the power limit value, the engine enters the ammonia cleaning mode;

[0070] Step S7: switch the engine demand torque based on the SOC torque distribution to the ammonia cleaning mode engine set torque (first ammonia cleaning torque); ​

[0071] Step S8: total demand torque minus engine set torque in ammonia purge mode to obtain motor set torque in ammonia purge mode, so as to control motor torque switch to output motor demand load and control motor to work.

[0075] The first determination unit 10 is configured to obtain the mass flow of nitrogen oxides before the after-treatment step and the mass flow of nitrogen oxides after the after-treatment step, respectively, to obtain a first mass flow and a second mass flow, and to determine the catalyst utilization rate according to the first mass flow and the second mass flow, wherein the after-treatment step represents the exhaust treatment step of the engine, and the catalyst utilization rate represents the utilization rate of the catalyst in the selective catalytic reduction device.

[0076] Specifically, the catalyst in the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) is generally ammonia, and the ammonia storage in the SCR carrier can be predicted based on the catalyst utilization rate, i.e., the actual utilization rate of ammonia. This is achieved by the following method: the mass flow of NOx before the after-treatment step is subtracted from the mass flow of NOx after the after-treatment step to obtain the mass flow of NOx converted by the after-treatment; the actual urea consumption flow consumed to convert the NOx is calculated, and the actual urea consumption flow divided by the actual urea injection flow is the actual urea utilization rate, i.e., the catalyst utilization rate.

[0077] The second determination unit 20 is configured to obtain the current temperature of the selective catalytic reduction device, and to determine the ammonia storage in the selective catalytic reduction device according to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature.

[0078] Specifically, based on the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature of the SCR, the ammonia storage can be predicted. In theory, when the SCR carrier, i.e., the selective catalytic reducer, has no ammonia storage, the utilization rate of urea is determined by the conversion efficiency, and the SCR conversion efficiency is directly related to the temperature of the SCR carrier, and the two are a relatively certain relationship curve. However, when there is ammonia storage in the SCR carrier, the stored ammonia will also participate in the conversion of NOx, thereby increasing the utilization rate of urea. Therefore, based on the actual utilization rate of urea and the temperature of the SCR carrier, the ammonia storage of the SCR carrier can be predicted. Under the condition of a certain temperature, the higher the actual utilization rate of urea is, the higher the level of ammonia stored in the carrier is.

[0079] The switching unit 30 is configured to switch the torque of the engine to a first ammonia cleaning torque to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia, at least when the ammonia storage is greater than a preset ammonia threshold and the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold. The exhaust temperature of the engine under the first ammonia cleaning torque is lower than the exhaust temperature of the engine under a battery power distribution torque, which is an automatically distributed torque according to the state of charge of the power battery.

[0080] Specifically, based on the predicted ammonia storage and the SCR temperature, the ammonia leakage risk state is identified: the ammonia storage is compared with the preset ammonia threshold, and when it is greater, it is considered that the carrier is in a high ammonia storage state; and when the SCR temperature is greater than the preset temperature threshold, it is considered that the engine is in a high temperature state; at least when the above two conditions are met, the temperature of the SCR carrier needs to be controlled in time to reduce ammonia leakage. Specifically, the torque of the engine can be switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque, and the exhaust temperature of the engine under the torque is relatively low to reduce the exhaust temperature of the aftertreatment.

[0081] According to the embodiment, the mass flow of nitrogen oxides before and after the post-processing step is obtained respectively, and the catalyst utilization rate is determined according to the mass flow, wherein the post-processing refers to the exhaust treatment of the engine, and the catalyst utilization rate refers to the utilization rate of the catalyst in the selective catalytic reduction device; the current temperature of the selective catalytic reduction device is obtained, the ammonia storage in the selective catalytic reduction device is determined according to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature; at least in the case that the ammonia storage is greater than a preset ammonia threshold and the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, the torque of the engine is switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia, wherein the exhaust temperature of the engine at the first ammonia cleaning torque is lower than the exhaust temperature of the engine at the battery power distribution torque, and the battery power distribution torque is a torque automatically distributed according to the battery power state of the power battery. In the prior art, the problem of ammonia leakage of the engine during the sharp temperature rise process cannot be solved. In the present application, the ammonia storage is predicted according to the catalyst utilization rate, and the torque of the engine is controlled according to the ammonia storage to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia. Therefore, the problem of lacking a solution device for ammonia leakage during the sharp temperature rise process in the prior art can be solved, and the effect of reducing ammonia leakage is achieved.

[0082] In the implementation process, the second determination unit includes a first acquisition module and a determination module. The first acquisition module is configured to acquire a one-to-one mapping relationship among the catalyst utilization rate, the current temperature, and the predicted ammonia storage. The determination module is configured to determine the predicted ammonia storage corresponding to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature according to the one-to-one mapping relationship, and obtain the ammonia storage. The device determines the ammonia storage through the above steps, which can accurately predict the current catalyst storage.

[0083] Specifically, since the SCR conversion efficiency is directly related to the temperature of the SCR carrier, i.e., the catalyst utilization rate, the current temperature, and the predicted ammonia storage have a one-to-one mapping relationship, which can be in the form of a curve or a table, etc., therefore, the predicted ammonia storage corresponding to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature can be determined through the one-to-one mapping relationship, i.e., the current ammonia storage.

[0084] In some optional embodiments, the switching unit comprises a calculation module and a first determination module. The calculation module is configured to obtain a historical temperature of the selective catalytic reduction device, and calculate a temperature difference between the current temperature and the historical temperature, wherein the historical temperature represents a temperature at a time point before the current time point corresponding to the current temperature. The first determination module is configured to determine that the engine is in the ammonia leakage high-risk state and switch the torque of the engine to the first ammonia cleaning torque, when the ammonia storage is greater than a preset ammonia threshold, the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, the temperature difference is positive, and the temperature difference is greater than a preset temperature difference.

[0085] In a specific implementation process, in order to further determine the ammonia leakage risk, it is also necessary to judge the temperature variation range of the SCR carrier, that is, the selective catalytic reduction device, that is, whether it is a rapid temperature rising process. It can be judged by whether the temperature difference between the historical temperature at a certain time point before the current time point corresponding to the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature difference. The historical time point can be 10 minutes before the current time point. When the condition is met, it indicates that the engine is in the ammonia leakage high-risk state, and the torque of the engine is switched to the first ammonia cleaning torque.

[0086] In some optional embodiments, the switching unit further comprises a second acquisition module and a first switching module. The second acquisition module is configured to obtain a current battery state of charge of the power battery. The first switching module is configured to switch the torque of the engine to the first ammonia cleaning torque when the current battery state of charge represents that the battery capacity of the power battery is greater than a preset capacity threshold. The device switches the torque through the above steps when the current SOC (State of Charge, SOC for short) of the power battery indicates that the battery capacity is sufficient, which can ensure that the engine has sufficient power.

[0087] Specifically, in order to ensure that the engine has sufficient power, the engine enters the ammonia cleaning mode only when the engine is in the ammonia leakage high-risk state and the current SOC (battery capacity) is greater than a preset capacity threshold.

[0088] In some optional embodiments, after the torque of the engine is switched to the first ammonia-free torque, the device further comprises an acquisition unit and a second switching unit, the acquisition unit is configured to acquire a total demand torque; the second switching unit is configured to calculate a difference between the total demand torque and the first ammonia-free torque, to obtain a second ammonia-free torque of the electric motor, and to switch the torque of the electric motor to the second ammonia-free torque, wherein the total demand torque is greater than the first ammonia-free torque. The device converts the torque of the electric motor through the above steps, which can ensure the total torque load torque demand.

[0089] In the specific implementation process, the total demand torque minus the engine set torque in the first ammonia-free mode obtains the set load of the electric motor in the ammonia-free mode, so as to control the electric motor to work. This control mode can effectively monitor the ammonia leakage risk state of the aftertreatment, and effectively reduce the exhaust temperature and the occurrence of ammonia leakage by controlling the engine torque when ammonia leakage is detected to have a high risk, thereby reducing the failure rate of more than 1.2.

[0090] In some optional embodiments, the first determination unit comprises a second determination module, configured to calculate a difference between the first mass flow and the second mass flow to obtain a conversion mass flow, and to determine the catalyst utilization rate according to the conversion mass flow.

[0091] In the specific implementation process, the first NOx mass flow minus the second NOx mass flow obtains the conversion mass flow; the actual urea flow consumed for converting the NOx is calculated, and the actual urea consumption flow is divided by the actual urea injection flow to obtain the actual urea utilization rate.

[0092] In some optional embodiments, the second determination module comprises a first calculation submodule and a second calculation submodule, the first calculation submodule is configured to acquire a conversion coefficient, to calculate a product of the conversion mass flow and the conversion coefficient to obtain a catalyst consumption amount, wherein the conversion coefficient represents a conversion rate between the nitrogen oxides and the catalyst; and the second calculation submodule is configured to acquire a catalyst injection amount, to calculate a ratio of the catalyst consumption amount to the catalyst injection amount to obtain the catalyst utilization rate. The device calculates the catalyst utilization rate through the above steps, which can accurately calculate the catalyst utilization rate.

[0093] Specifically, the conversion relationship between the NOx and the urea can be determined by a conversion coefficient, so that the catalyst consumption amount is obtained by multiplying the conversion mass flow and the conversion coefficient; and the ratio of the catalyst consumption amount to the catalyst injection amount can obtain the catalyst utilization rate.

[0094] The ammonia leakage processing device includes a processor and a memory, the first determination unit, the second determination unit, and the switching unit are all stored in the memory as program units, and the corresponding functions are realized by the processor executing the program units stored in the memory. The modules are all located in the same processor, or the modules are located in different processors in any combination.

[0095] The processor includes a core, and the core calls the corresponding program units in the memory. The core can be one or more, and the ammonia leakage problem can be solved by adjusting the core parameters.

[0096] The memory can include a non-permanent memory in a computer readable medium, a random access memory (RAM), and / or a non-volatile memory such as a read-only memory (ROM) or a flash memory (flash RAM), and the memory includes at least one memory chip.

[0097] The embodiment of the application provides a computer readable storage medium, which includes a stored program, wherein when the program runs, the device where the computer readable storage medium is located executes the ammonia leakage processing method.

[0101] In step S202, the current temperature of the selective catalytic reduction device is obtained, and the ammonia storage in the selective catalytic reduction device is determined according to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature.

[0102] Specifically, based on the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature of the SCR, the ammonia storage can be predicted. In theory, when the SCR carrier, i.e., the selective catalytic reducer, has no ammonia storage, the utilization rate of urea is determined by the conversion efficiency, and the SCR conversion efficiency is directly related to the temperature of the SCR carrier, and the two are a relatively certain relationship curve. However, when there is ammonia storage in the SCR carrier, the stored ammonia also participates in the conversion of NOx, thereby increasing the utilization rate of urea. Therefore, based on the actual utilization rate of urea and the temperature of the SCR carrier, the ammonia storage of the SCR carrier can be predicted. Under the condition of a certain temperature, the higher the actual utilization rate of urea is, the higher the level of ammonia stored in the carrier is.

[0103] In step S203, at least when the ammonia storage is greater than a preset ammonia threshold and the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, the torque of the engine is switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia, wherein the exhaust temperature of the engine under the first ammonia cleaning torque is lower than the exhaust temperature of the engine under a battery power distribution torque, and the battery power distribution torque is a torque automatically distributed according to the state of charge of the power battery.

[0104] Specifically, based on the predicted ammonia storage and the SCR temperature, the ammonia leakage risk state is identified: the ammonia storage is compared with the preset ammonia threshold, and when it is greater than the preset ammonia threshold, it is considered that the carrier is in a high ammonia storage state; and when the SCR temperature is greater than the preset temperature threshold, it is considered that the engine is in a high temperature state; at least when the above two conditions are met, the temperature of the SCR carrier needs to be controlled in time to reduce ammonia leakage. Specifically, the torque of the engine can be switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque, and the exhaust temperature of the engine under the first ammonia cleaning torque is relatively low to reduce the exhaust temperature of the aftertreatment.

[0108] In step S202, the current temperature of the selective catalytic reducer is obtained, and the ammonia storage in the selective catalytic reducer is determined according to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature;

[0109] Specifically, the ammonia storage can be predicted based on the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature of the SCR. In theory, in the case that there is no ammonia storage in the SCR carrier, i.e., the selective catalytic reducer, the utilization rate of urea is determined by the conversion efficiency, and the conversion efficiency of the SCR is directly related to the temperature of the SCR carrier, and the two are a relatively certain relationship curve. However, when there is ammonia storage in the SCR carrier, the stored ammonia also participates in the conversion of NOx, thereby increasing the utilization rate of urea. Therefore, the ammonia storage in the SCR carrier can be predicted based on the actual utilization rate of urea and the temperature of the SCR carrier. Under the condition of a certain temperature, the higher the actual utilization rate of urea is, the higher the level of ammonia stored in the carrier is.

[0110] In step S203, at least in the case that the ammonia storage is greater than a preset ammonia threshold and the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, the torque of the engine is switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia, wherein the exhaust temperature of the engine under the first ammonia cleaning torque is lower than the exhaust temperature of the engine under a battery power distribution torque, and the battery power distribution torque is a torque automatically distributed according to the state of charge of the power battery.

[0111] Specifically, the ammonia leakage risk state is identified based on the predicted ammonia storage and the temperature of the SCR: the ammonia storage is compared with the preset ammonia threshold, and in the case that it is greater, it is considered that the carrier is in a high ammonia storage state; and the temperature of the SCR is greater than the preset temperature threshold, and it is considered that the engine is in a high temperature state; at least in the case that the above two conditions are met, the temperature of the SCR carrier needs to be controlled in time to reduce the ammonia leakage. Specifically, the torque of the engine can be switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque, and the exhaust temperature of the engine under the first ammonia cleaning torque is relatively low to reduce the exhaust temperature of the aftertreatment.

[0112] The application further provides a computer program product comprising a computer program which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the method described in various embodiments of the application.

[0114] Specifically, the catalyst in the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) is generally ammonia, and the ammonia storage in the SCR carrier can be predicted based on the catalyst utilization rate, i.e., the actual utilization rate of ammonia, by the following method: the mass flow of NOx before the post-processing step is subtracted from the mass flow of NOx after the post-processing step to obtain the mass flow of NOx converted by the post-processing; the actual urea consumption flow consumed to convert the NOx is calculated, and the actual urea consumption flow divided by the actual urea injection flow is the actual urea utilization rate, i.e., the catalyst utilization rate.

[0115] In step S202, the current temperature of the selective catalytic reduction device is obtained, and the ammonia storage in the selective catalytic reduction device is determined according to the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature.

[0116] Specifically, the ammonia storage can be predicted based on the catalyst utilization rate and the current temperature of the SCR. In theory, when the SCR carrier, i.e., the selective catalytic reduction device, has no ammonia storage, the utilization rate of urea is determined by the conversion efficiency, and the SCR conversion efficiency is directly related to the temperature of the SCR carrier, and the two are a relatively certain relationship curve. However, when there is ammonia storage in the SCR carrier, the stored ammonia also participates in the conversion of NOx, thereby increasing the utilization rate of urea. Therefore, the ammonia storage of the SCR carrier can be predicted based on the actual utilization rate of urea and the temperature of the SCR carrier. Under the condition of a certain temperature, the higher the actual urea utilization rate, the higher the level of ammonia stored in the carrier.

[0117] In step S203, at least when the ammonia storage is greater than a preset ammonia threshold and the current temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, the torque of the engine is switched to a first ammonia cleaning torque to reduce the leakage amount of ammonia, wherein the exhaust temperature of the engine under the first ammonia cleaning torque is lower than the exhaust temperature of the engine under a battery power distribution torque, and the battery power distribution torque is a torque automatically distributed according to the state of charge of the power battery.
