[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, according to one aspect of the present application, a method for judging abnormality of an intake system pressure sensor under a steady state condition is provided, comprising:

[0007] When the throttle inlet pressure steady state condition judgment condition is met, the average value of the throttle inlet pressure and the average value of the throttle outlet pressure within a preset time are obtained;

[0008] According to the average value of the throttle inlet pressure, the average value of the throttle outlet pressure and the self-learning correction coefficient, it is judged whether the throttle inlet pressure signal is faulty.

[0009] In the above-mentioned solution, the specific method for judging whether the throttle inlet pressure signal is faulty is:

[0010] When the throttle inlet pressure steady state condition judgment condition is met, the average value of the throttle inlet pressure within a preset time t3 is obtained and the average value of the throttle outlet pressure

[0011] If , it is determined that the throttle inlet pressure signal is faulty, otherwise it is determined that the throttle inlet pressure signal is not faulty.

[0012] In the above scheme, r Adpt is a self-learning correction coefficient, and the default value is 0, which can be saved when the vehicle is powered off.

[0013] In the above scheme, the self-learning correction coefficient r Adpt is obtained as follows: record the number of times CNT3 that meet the throttle inlet pressure stable working condition determination condition, record the number of times CNT4 that meet the throttle inlet pressure stable working condition determination condition , record the number of times CNT5 that meet the throttle inlet pressure stable working condition determination condition , and the CNT3, CNT4, CNT5 are all updated at most once per vehicle driving cycle;

The supercharger includes a supercharger body and a waste gas bypass valve. The waste gas bypass valve is adjusted to control the supercharging pressure. The electronic pressure relief valve is used to open the pressure relief valve to avoid the flow back and forth in the supercharger compressor when the engine has a torque reduction request, to improve the supercharger surge, and to improve the engine life and NVH. The temperature and pressure sensors before the throttle valve can read the temperature and pressure of the supercharged gas before the throttle valve. The intercooler is a mechanical part and is not controlled. The intercooler is located between the supercharger compressor and the throttle valve, and cools the supercharged gas. The temperature and pressure sensors after the throttle valve can read the temperature and pressure of the supercharged gas before the throttle valve. The carbon can electromagnetic valve is used to introduce the fuel vapor into the combustion and prevent the evaporation into the atmosphere.

[0046] EGR, i.e. exhaust gas recirculation, sends part of the exhaust gas of the engine back to the intake manifold, and enters the cylinder again with fresh mixture. VVT is used to adjust the intake (exhaust) amount, valve opening and closing time, angle, and adjust the amount of air entering the cylinder.

[0052] If CNT3≥200, CNT4≥160, and CNT5≤10, then r Adpt =r Adpt (z)-0.01;

[0053] If CNT3 ≥ 200, CNT4 ≤ 10, and CNT5 ≥ 130, then r Adpt =r Adpt (z)+0.015;

[0054] In other cases, r Adpt =r Adpt (z);

[0055] Where r Adpt (z) represents the self-learning correction coefficient from the last update; when CNT3 ≥ 200, then the self-learning correction coefficient r Adpt After the update is complete, CNT3, CNT4 and CNT5 will all be reset to 0, and the counting will restart when the next condition is met.

DesRaw (0); Sampling period interval Δt, which is 10ms in this example. K Rho For coefficients: (This example k) Rho The calibration speed is 1000 rpm. The purpose of this setting is for normalization; at different speeds, no special calibration is needed, only k at 1000 rpm.Rho , where n is engine speed, k Rho is air mass filter coefficient, and in this example, k

In this example, r RhoLim = 0.05, and T Rho = 0.4 s.

[0061] (3) The actual intake air pressure at the throttle outlet is stable;

Wherein, r ManLim In this example, 0.05 is taken, T Man In this example, 0.4s is taken.
