[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.
[0043] The method for controlling the concentration of a hydrogen engine mixture provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to Figure 1 In the application environment shown. Among them, the engine control unit (ECU, Engine Control Unit) includes a processing unit 102 and a closed-loop controller execution unit 104, and the processing unit 102 is used to connect with the closed-loop controller execution unit 104 and the vehicle wide-band oxygen sensor 106 respectively. The vehicle wide-band oxygen sensor 106 is used to collect the oxygen concentration signal of the exhaust gas in the exhaust pipe, and send the oxygen concentration signal to the processing unit 102. After receiving the oxygen concentration signal, the processing unit 102 obtains data such as the current excess air coefficient, and calculates a feedback value based on the current excess air coefficient and other data, and sends the feedback value to the closed-loop controller execution unit 104, so that the closed-loop controller execution unit 104 can perform closed-loop control on the hydrogen injection amount of the electronic throttle or the hydrogen injection system according to the feedback value and the preset demand value.
[0044] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, a method for controlling the concentration of mixed gas in a hydrogen engine is provided. Figure 1 The processing unit 102 in the embodiment is taken as an example to illustrate, and the following steps are included:
[0045] Step 202, obtaining the measured excess air coefficient of the hydrogen engine.
[0046] Among them, the Air Excess Ratio (Lambda) is a parameter that describes the relationship between the actual air volume and the theoretical air volume (the minimum air volume required for complete combustion) during the engine combustion process.
[0047] Exemplarily, the processing unit 102 receives an oxygen concentration signal sent by the vehicle wide-band oxygen sensor 106 , and obtains a measured excess air coefficient of the hydrogen engine according to the oxygen concentration signal.
[0048] Step 204, when the measured excess air coefficient does not meet the detection condition, the measured excess air coefficient is corrected based on the measured air-fuel ratio of the hydrogen engine to obtain a corrected excess air coefficient.
[0049] The detection condition refers to the measurement range of the sensor, that is, when the measurement range is exceeded, the oxygen signal data collected by the sensor cannot meet the accuracy condition.
[0050] According to the detection characteristic curve of the automotive wide-range oxygen sensor in the relevant technology, as the excess air coefficient λ increases, the pump current of the oxygen sensor gradually increases. However, when the excess air coefficient λ exceeds a certain range, the growth trend of the oxygen sensor pump current gradually flattens. This shows that under higher λ conditions, the oxygen sensor's measurement sensitivity to the excess air coefficient decreases, and the measurement error increases, resulting in reduced measurement accuracy and failure to meet the measurement accuracy requirements. It is not possible to perform a full-condition closed loop using only actual oxygen sensor measurements.
[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, when the measured excess air coefficient does not meet the detection conditions, the processing unit calculates the measured air-fuel ratio of the hydrogen engine, corrects the measured excess air coefficient based on the measured air-fuel ratio, and obtains the corrected excess air coefficient.
[0052] Step 206 , feeding back the corrected excess air coefficient to the closed-loop control execution unit, so that the closed-loop control execution unit performs closed-loop control according to the corrected excess air coefficient and the preset required excess air coefficient.
[0053] Exemplarily, the processing unit feeds back the corrected excess air coefficient after correction of the measured air-fuel ratio to the closed-loop control execution unit, and the closed-loop control execution unit completes the closed-loop control according to the corrected excess air coefficient and the preset required excess air coefficient.
[0054] In the above-mentioned hydrogen engine mixed gas concentration control method, the measured excess air coefficient of the hydrogen engine is obtained; when the measured excess air coefficient does not meet the detection conditions, the measured excess air coefficient is corrected based on the measured air-fuel ratio of the hydrogen engine to obtain the corrected excess air coefficient; the corrected excess air coefficient is fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit, so that the closed-loop control execution unit performs closed-loop control according to the corrected excess air coefficient and the preset required excess air coefficient. Since it is difficult for the commercialized automotive wide-range oxygen sensor to meet the detection accuracy conditions when the excess air coefficient exceeds a certain range, it is difficult to achieve closed-loop control of the hydrogen engine mixed gas concentration. In the embodiment of the present application, when the excess air coefficient measured by the sensor reflects that the sensor currently does not meet the detection accuracy conditions, the measured air-fuel ratio can be used to correct the measured excess air coefficient, so that the performance emission of the hydrogen engine after the closed-loop control of the mixed gas concentration is more optimized and more accurate.
[0055] In one embodiment, the hydrogen engine mixture concentration control method also includes feeding back the measured excess air coefficient to the closed-loop control execution unit when the measured excess air coefficient meets the detection conditions, so that the closed-loop control execution unit performs closed-loop control according to the measured excess air coefficient and the preset required excess air coefficient.
[0056] The embodiment of the present application adopts a partitioned closed-loop control method to realize the closed-loop control of the mixed gas concentration of the hydrogen engine. The control method of the embodiment of the present application includes a first control mode and a second control mode. The first control mode is used to indicate that the measured excess air coefficient is fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit as a feedback value, and the second control mode is used to indicate that the corrected excess air coefficient is fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit as a feedback value.
[0057] For example, when the measured excess air coefficient meets the detection condition, that is, the oxygen sensor meets the detection accuracy, the processing unit adopts the first control mode. The processing unit obtains the measured excess air coefficient λ according to the signal collected by the oxygen sensor. LSU , and the measured excess air coefficient λ LSU As the feedback value, it is fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit, and the closed-loop control execution unit converts the measured excess air coefficient λ LSU Compared with the preset excess air coefficient λ REQ Perform closed loop control.
[0058] For example, when the measured excess air coefficient does not meet the detection condition, that is, when the oxygen sensor exceeds a certain detection accuracy, the processing unit adopts the second control mode. The processing unit obtains the measured excess air coefficient λ according to the signal collected by the oxygen sensor. LSU , and use the measured air-fuel ratio of the hydrogen engine to calculate the measured excess air coefficient λ LSU Correction is made to obtain the corrected excess air coefficient λ calculate , the excess air coefficient λ will be corrected calculate As the feedback value is fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit, the closed-loop control execution unit will correct the excess air coefficient λ calculate Compared with the preset excess air coefficient λ REQ Perform closed loop control.
[0059] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the measured excess air coefficient is corrected based on the measured air-fuel ratio of the hydrogen engine to obtain a corrected excess air coefficient, including:
[0060] Step 302: determining a compensation value based on the measured air-fuel ratio of the hydrogen engine and the theoretical air-fuel ratio of hydrogen.
[0061] Step 304: Combining the compensation value and the measured excess air coefficient, obtain the corrected excess air coefficient.
[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, when the measured excess air coefficient does not meet the detection conditions, a closed-loop control of the mixture concentration combining oxygen sensor measurement and model calculation can be adopted.
[0063] For example, using the oxygen sensor measured value λ LSU λ calculated with the model mod Lambda for combined processing calculate As feedback value, to compare with demand value λ REQ Perform closed loop control.
[0064] Among them, λ mod The compensation value determined by the measured air-fuel ratio of the gas engine and the theoretical air-fuel ratio of hydrogen can be expressed as follows: mod = Actual air-fuel ratio / 34 (theoretical air-fuel ratio of hydrogen). The actual air-fuel ratio can also be measured by the oxygen sensor.
[0065] The processing unit of the embodiment of the present application determines the contribution degree of the compensation value and the measured excess air coefficient to the corrected excess air coefficient respectively, determines the corrected excess air coefficient based on the contribution degree, and thus obtains the corrected excess air coefficient by combining the compensation value and the measured excess air coefficient.
[0066] For example, correct the excess air coefficient λ calculate The following formula can be used:
[0067] λ calculate =α*λ LSU + (1-α)*λ mod ;
[0068] Among them, α represents the contribution of the measured excess air coefficient to the corrected excess air coefficient, and 1-α represents the contribution of the compensation value to the corrected excess air coefficient, that is, the proportion of the two signals is determined by α, 0≤α≤1, and α can be calibrated in advance according to the actual excess air coefficient.
[0069] In one embodiment, the detection condition may be used to indicate that the excess air ratio is less than a preset detection threshold.
[0070] The embodiment of the present application can determine that the detection condition is met when the measured excess air coefficient is less than a preset detection threshold, and determine that the detection condition is not met when the measured excess air coefficient is greater than or equal to the preset detection threshold.
[0071] For example, the preset detection threshold value may be 2.5. When the excess air coefficient value measured by the wide-range oxygen sensor is less than 2.5, the processing unit adopts the first control mode to set the measured excess air coefficient λ of the oxygen sensor to LSU As the feedback value, and the demand value λ REQ When the excess air coefficient value measured by the wide-range oxygen sensor is greater than or equal to 2.5, the processing unit adopts the second control mode and changes the measured excess air coefficient λ LSU Values and model-calculated lambda mod Lambda for combined processingcalculate As a feedback value, it is used to perform closed-loop control with the demand value λREQ.
[0072] The Lambda of the currently commercialized automotive wide-range oxygen sensor with a high-precision range is usually 0.7 to 2.5, while the Lambda of the mixed gas concentration in a hydrogen engine can reach 3.5. It is difficult to achieve a closed-loop control of all operating conditions using only actual oxygen sensor measurements. The embodiment of the present application implements oxygen sensor measurement feedback closed-loop control in the existing automotive wide-range oxygen sensor concentration control range (Lambda less than 2.5) operating conditions; when the oxygen sensor accuracy range is exceeded (Lambda greater than or equal to 2.5), a closed-loop control of the mixed gas concentration combining oxygen sensor measurement and model calculation is used, thereby solving the problem that the current hydrogen engine mixed gas concentration can only be open-loop controlled.
[0073] In one embodiment, a method for controlling the concentration of a hydrogen engine mixed gas is provided. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:
[0074] Step 402: Obtain a hysteresis interval using a preset detection threshold.
[0075] The preset detection threshold belongs to the hysteresis interval.
[0076] Step 404: When the measured excess air coefficient exceeds the upper limit of the hysteresis interval, it is determined that the measured excess air coefficient does not meet the detection condition.
[0077] Step 406, when the measured excess air coefficient is lower than the lower limit of the hysteresis interval, it is determined that the measured excess air coefficient meets the detection condition.
[0078] Step 408, when the measured excess air coefficient belongs to the hysteresis interval, keep the current control mode unchanged.
[0079] Among them, the control method includes a first control mode and a second control mode. The first control mode is used to indicate that the measured excess air coefficient is fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit as a feedback value, and the second control mode is used to indicate that the corrected excess air coefficient is fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit as a feedback value. Figure 5 The schematic diagram of using a hysteresis loop to perform partition closed-loop control is shown as an example.
[0080] Exemplarily, the preset detection threshold may be 2.5, and the hysteresis interval may be a closed interval [2.5, 2.7]. When the processing unit calculates the measured excess air coefficient to be greater than 2.7 based on the oxygen concentration data collected by the oxygen sensor, it is determined that the measured excess air coefficient does not meet the detection condition, and the processing unit adopts the second control mode, calculates the corrected excess air coefficient as a feedback value and feeds it back to the closed-loop control execution unit; when the processing unit calculates the measured excess air coefficient to be less than 2.5 based on the oxygen concentration data collected by the oxygen sensor, it is determined that the measured excess air coefficient meets the detection condition, and the processing unit adopts the first control mode, and feeds the measured excess air coefficient as a feedback value and feeds it back to the closed-loop control execution unit; when the processing unit calculates the measured excess air coefficient to belong to the closed interval [2.5, 2.7] based on the oxygen concentration data collected by the oxygen sensor, the current control mode (i.e., the mode adopted in the previous control) is judged, and the current control mode is kept unchanged.
[0081] For example, if the measured excess air coefficient is greater than 2.7, the processing unit adopts the second control mode. If the measured excess air coefficient is 2.6 at the next moment, the processing unit still adopts the second control mode and remains unchanged. If the measured excess air coefficient is less than 2.5, the processing unit adopts the first control mode. If the measured excess air coefficient is 2.6 at the next moment, the processing unit still adopts the first control mode and remains unchanged.
[0082] The embodiment of the present application may use a hysteresis loop to prevent the jump between the two control modes, so that the two control modes use a hysteresis loop transition.
[0083] In one embodiment, a method for controlling the concentration of a hydrogen engine mixed gas is provided. Figure 6 As shown, the method includes:
[0084] Step 602 : when the control mode needs to be switched, determine the pre-feedback value fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit before the switch and the proposed feedback value currently proposed to be fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit.
[0085] Step 604 , based on the forward feedback value and the proposed feedback value, the proposed feedback value is fed back to the closed-loop control execution unit in a low-pass filtering manner.
[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, a low-pass filter is used for the feedback signals of the two control modes to ensure a smooth transition. The low-pass filter (LowpassT) may use a low-pass filter with a time constant of T.
[0087] For example, if the measured excess air coefficient is greater than 2.7, the processing unit adopts the second control mode, corrects the measured excess air coefficient, obtains the corrected excess air coefficient and feeds it back to the closed-loop control execution unit as a feedback value, assuming that the corrected excess air coefficient is 2.8. At the next moment, if the measured excess air coefficient is 2.2, the processing unit needs to switch the control mode, that is, adopt the first control mode, and feed the measured excess air coefficient 2.2 as the proposed feedback value to the closed-loop control execution unit. At this time, in order to ensure a smooth transition of the feedback values of the two control methods, the processing unit can use the low-pass filtering module to send gradually decreasing feedback values in the discrete time domain based on the previous feedback value 2.8 and the current proposed feedback value 2.2. For example, the processing unit switches the control mode and sends the actually measured excess air coefficient 2.2 to the low-pass filtering module of the processing unit. The low-pass filtering module of the processing unit sends 2.7, 2.6, 2.5, 2.4, 2.3, and 2.2 to the closed-loop control execution unit in the discrete time domain in sequence based on the previous feedback value 2.8 and the current proposed feedback value 2.2.
