Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of engine electronic control system, and relates to a control method and structure for random injection phase of a direct injection engine. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the increasingly stringent requirements of the state on automobile emissions and the increasingly high requirements of the general public on vehicle driving, higher requirements are put forward for the precise control of engine fuel. Due to factors such as material and layout direction, the fuel system part of the engine will produce fuel pulsation during fuel injection, which will produce different pulsation pressures at each fuel injector, thereby causing uneven fuel injection in each cylinder of the engine. In particular, for a direct injection engine (GDI) engine using a high-pressure fuel system, the oil rail generally adopts a design scheme without a damper, and the influence of fuel pulsation is greater. If the engine cylinder is lean, the oil-gas mixture will have excess oxygen, and in the high-temperature oxygen-rich state, the engine nitrogen oxide (NO x ) original emission will be increased; if the engine cylinder is rich, the unburned mixture will be discharged from the cylinder, which will increase the emission of hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), etc. At the same time, uneven fuel injection in each cylinder will cause different combustion explosion pressures in each cylinder of the engine, causing the engine to run unevenly, especially at idle speed, the uneven running of the engine will cause obvious speed fluctuations, which will be transmitted to the vehicle driving cabin through the transmission system, causing an adverse driving experience.

[0003] In order to reduce idle speed fluctuations and improve the driving experience, the control method of the traditional GDI engine is to increase the idle speed, increase the actual intake of the engine, improve the robustness of the engine control, and reduce the speed fluctuations. However, this scheme increases the idle fuel consumption due to the increase in speed.

[0004] Patent CN101694184A discloses an engine starting fuel injection control method, which determines the opening time of the fuel injector according to the fuel injection time, and determines the opening duration of the fuel injector according to the fuel injection pulse width; wherein the fuel injection time and the fuel injection cylinder number are determined according to the detected engine crankshaft signal and phase signal; the fuel injection pulse width is determined according to the detected engine temperature, and is compensated according to the detected battery voltage. However, this patent does not explain the specific calculation method of the fuel injection reference tooth and the fuel injection phase, which has limitations.

[0005] Patent CN114542311A discloses a direct injection engine low-temperature environment in-cylinder direct injection control method and system, the critical crank angle corresponding to the oil injection wet wall is calculated according to the basic parameters of the oil injector and the combustion system; the oil injection parameters of the oil injector are calibrated with the calibrated oil injection end angle being less than the critical crank angle as the calibration principle; whether the direct injection engine is in a low-temperature environment is judged, if it is in a low-temperature environment, the oil injection parameters of the oil injector are executed to complete the in-cylinder gasoline direct injection in the low-temperature environment. But this patent more from the calibration level tries to avoid oil dilution, provides a basis for the selection of oil injection phase, does not explain the oil injection phase reference and range from the system logic level, and cannot solve the problem of speed fluctuation at idle speed.

[0028] The injection reference tooth of the second cylinder is set as the falling edge of the 50th tooth in the complete 60-2 tooth signal after the compression top dead center of the first cylinder.

[0029] Further, in the idling condition, the phase length from the opening time angle of the random injection pulse width of each cylinder with the random phase opening function to the injection reference tooth is as follows:

[0030] The phase length from the opening time angle of the random injection pulse width of the first cylinder to the injection reference tooth is SOI+offset1 random;
