Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of shift control, in particular to an AMT shift control method, an AMT shift control device, an electronic device, a storage medium and a vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] The economic index is one of the most important performance indicators in the development process of heavy commercial vehicles, and the fuel consumption level of heavy commercial vehicles determines the user's reputation and market performance to some extent. The AMT (Automatic Mechanical Transmission) is widely used in the field of heavy commercial vehicles due to its high transmission efficiency, low cost, high cost performance and other characteristics. The shift strategy is one of the key technologies of AMT, and the advantages and disadvantages of the shift strategy will directly affect the performance of the vehicle. Major vehicle and transmission manufacturers are actively conducting optimization research on shift strategies.

[0003] Patent document 1 (determination method and device for automatic transmission shift strategy-CN201811615297.7) discloses a method for determining the shift strategy of an automatic transmission. By selecting the engine speed and throttle opening of the shift point, and the corresponding relationship between the predetermined engine speed, engine torque and throttle opening, the engine torque is determined. The vehicle driving state is transferred to the engine universal characteristic for gear decision, so that the engine can work in the low fuel consumption rate area as much as possible, and the fuel economy is improved. However, this method only improves the economy by considering the engine performance parameters, without considering the influence of other powertrain parameters;

[0004] Patent document 2 (control method and device for shift strategy of AMT-CN201711346062.8) discloses a method for analyzing the vehicle state according to the throttle opening ratio, and updating the shift strategy based on the actual use of the vehicle, so that the engine works in a reasonable range to meet the actual driving conditions and the power demand of the driver. However, this method will occupy a large amount of TCU resources in the actual execution process, and the effect of improving the power performance is limited;

[0005] Patent document 3 (transmission gear control method, system and vehicle-CN 109751405 A) discloses a transmission gear control method, which uses engine load rate as the main parameter considered in transmission shift, calculates the engine real-time load rate under the current gear and corresponding engine speed, compares the engine real-time load rate under the current gear and corresponding engine speed with the engine ideal load rate under the current gear and corresponding engine speed, and controls the transmission gear according to the comparison result. The method realizes precise control of vehicle energy-saving shift and ensures the economy of the vehicle. However, this method also does not consider the influence of the entire powertrain on fuel consumption.

[0006] In summary, the current AMT shift strategy of heavy commercial vehicle is relatively simple, only considering the influence of shift strategy on engine performance, without considering the collaborative control of the whole powertrain. Therefore, a kind of AMT shift control scheme is needed to reduce the limitation of TCU calculation ability and complex algorithms such as neural network and fuzzy control, and to fully tap the potential of vehicle fuel saving in the design stage.

[0102] The technical solutions of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0103] Figure 1 It is a flowchart of an AMT shift control method provided by one or more embodiments of the present application.

[0104] As shown in the AMT shift control method includes: Figure 1

[0105] Step A1, obtaining information of a vehicle working state;

[0106] The information of the vehicle working state includes information of engine fuel consumption, transmission efficiency, drive axle efficiency, engine thermal management mode, and accessory power consumption;

[0107] Step A2, based on the information of engine fuel consumption, transmission efficiency, drive axle efficiency, and accessory power consumption, power domain assembly cooperative control is performed to reduce fuel consumption;

[0108] Step A3, generating a shift strategy based on different engine thermal management modes to perform vehicle dynamic control;

[0109] The accessory power consumption includes power consumption of air conditioning and engine accessories.

[0110] The vehicle dynamic control includes superimposing vehicle dynamic control under the state of air conditioning and engine accessory power consumption.

[0111] ​Specifically, by building a complete vehicle model and calculating the system's energy losses under different gear conditions, the system comprehensively considers engine fuel consumption, transmission and drive axle efficiency, engine thermal management mode, and accessory power consumption to achieve coordinated control of all powertrain components. By optimizing the shift strategy, the system achieves fuel savings for heavy-duty commercial vehicles under typical highway operating conditions.

[0112] In this embodiment, based on the information of engine fuel consumption, transmission efficiency, drive axle efficiency, and accessory power consumption, the power domain assembly is collaboratively controlled, including: the steps of starting AMT shift control; determining the control target boundary; confirming the control boundary of each gear; calculating the transmission and drive axle speeds of each gear; interpolating the drive axle efficiency of each gear; calculating the drive axle input torque of each gear; interpolating the transmission efficiency of each gear; calculating the transmission input torque of each gear; calculating the power consumption of accessories and air conditioning; calculating the engine output torque of each gear; confirming the engine thermal management mode; calculating the engine fuel consumption; calculating the fuel consumption loss of each gear system; solving the loss handover of each gear system; calculating the shift curve; and ending AMT shift control.

[0113] Specifically, boundary conditions are identified based on the control objective. For example, dual-parameter shift control based on vehicle speed and throttle opening requires conversion to a two-dimensional distribution matrix with vehicle speed and engine torque as the boundaries. With torque as the boundary, the two-dimensional matrix of vehicle speed, speed, and torque for each gear is converted based on the assembly speed ratio, resulting in a three-dimensional graphical representation. When torque is input from the transmission, the consumption of accessories and air conditioning is converted into torque, and this portion of torque consumption is deducted to generate the engine output torque. Based on the input engine thermal management mode, different engine universal characteristics are determined. The universal characteristic curve is essentially a composite of all load and speed characteristic curves. It represents the relationship between the key engine parameters across the entire operating range and can be used to determine the most economical operating area of ​​the engine, as well as the minimum emission range for a particular pollutant. During the engine parameter matching process, these optimal performance areas are aligned to the most commonly used operating conditions. Furthermore, the universal characteristics corresponding to different engine thermal management modes are interpolated to calculate engine fuel consumption based on the calculated engine speed and output torque. A graph is drawn based on the system loss of each adjacent gear, and the system loss intersection line is solved, which is the target curve for control. Based on the system loss intersection line, the upshift and downshift lines are converted according to each speed ratio and gear, and the vehicle control output is performed to ensure that the vehicle runs in the most fuel-efficient state.

[0114] The step of starting the AMT shift control and the step of ending the AMT shift control can be used as an interface embedded in a certain large system. For example, in a system of a complete vehicle control method, a system of an AMT shift control method is embedded, when the system of the complete vehicle control method runs to the step of the AMT shift control method, an instruction of starting the AMT shift control is output, at the same time, the step of starting the AMT shift control acquires necessary operation data and promotes the flow of the AMT shift control method according to the received instruction of starting the AMT shift control, until the step of ending the AMT shift control is reached, the information of completing the flow of the AMT shift control method and the result data of the AMT shift control method are fed back to the system of the complete vehicle control method.
