Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of engine control technology, and in particular to an engine power distribution control method, device, vehicle and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] When the engine is running at high load, its power output is usually difficult to meet the driver's needs. Currently, there are roughly two solutions to increase engine power under high load: one is to increase power by increasing the injection amount compensation within a certain period of time; the other is to increase power by identifying whether the engine is in a power-limited state, increasing the intake boost capability, and controlling the intake and exhaust throttle valve opening to increase the air volume.

[0003] The current engine power enhancement scheme can only control a single subsystem (such as the fuel system or air system), but cannot coordinate multiple subsystems to jointly complete the power enhancement function, which results in limited power enhancement. In addition, it is impossible to subdivide the engine's working conditions, and all situations that require power enhancement are "one size fits all". For example, if the driver suddenly steps on the pedal, the existing strategy can only enhance the power for a period of time. If the time is too long, the power will remain the same as the original power or even decrease. Summary of the invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0039] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0040] Figure 1 A flow chart of an engine power distribution control method is provided for an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the situation where various subsystems are coordinated to perform systematic engine power distribution according to the driver's required power and the engine operating conditions. The engine power distribution control method can be executed by an engine power distribution control device, which can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software, and the engine power distribution control device can be configured in a vehicle. Figure 1 As shown, the engine power distribution control method includes:

[0041] S110, obtaining safety protection parameters during the engine power boost process and power limit parameters when the engine power is in a high load state, the safety protection parameters include cooling system parameters, fuel system parameters and fault detection parameters, and the power limit parameters include driver torque demand, injection torque and engine load rate.

[0042] The cooling system is mainly responsible for regulating the operating temperature of the engine in the vehicle system to prevent the engine from being damaged due to overheating. The cooling system usually includes components such as a radiator, a water pump, a fan, a coolant, a thermostat, and a coolant pipe. These components work together to ensure that the engine always remains within the optimal operating temperature range, which not only improves the performance and efficiency of the engine, but also extends its service life. In this embodiment, considering the safety protection during the engine power boosting process, the cooling system parameters can be the parameters of the cooling system components, and the cooling system parameters are one or more of the water pump water temperature, the cooling fan temperature, the radiator temperature, and the engine body temperature. That is, during the engine power boosting process, there may be an increase in the temperature of one or more of the water pump water temperature, the cooling fan temperature, the radiator temperature, and the engine body temperature. Based on the temperature increase, it can be determined whether to activate the cooling system.

[0043] The fuel system is also an indispensable part of the vehicle system. The fuel system consists of a fuel pump, a fuel filter, a fuel injector, etc. Its main function is to ensure the fuel flow required by the engine under various working states and conditions. The working state of the fuel system directly affects the combustion efficiency and power output of the engine, so its performance and stability are crucial to the operation of the vehicle. In this embodiment, considering the safety protection during the engine power boost process, the fuel system parameter can be the fuel injection amount of the engine at the current speed.

[0044] When a subsystem of the engine (such as the fuel system, air intake system, ignition system, etc.) fails, the onboard computer will detect these anomalies and automatically adjust the performance of the relevant subsystems or shut down some functions to prevent the fault from further deteriorating or causing more serious damage to the engine. In this embodiment, considering the safety protection during the engine power boost process, the fault detection parameters can be fault parameter information such as fuel system failure, air intake system failure, ignition system failure or emission system failure.

[0045] When the engine power is under high load, the power limiting parameters related to engine control act together on the control system of the engine to ensure that the engine can operate stably and efficiently under high load and avoid possible damage or performance degradation. In this embodiment, the power limiting parameters when the engine power is under high load may include driver torque demand, injection torque, and engine load rate.

[0046] S120, controlling the power distribution of each subsystem in the vehicle system according to the cooling system parameters, the fuel system parameters, the fault detection parameters, the driver's torque demand, the injection torque and the engine load rate.

[0047] In this embodiment, the cooling system in the vehicle system is controlled to distribute power according to the cooling system parameters. For accessories such as fans, thermostats, water pumps, when one or more of the water pump temperature, cooling fan temperature, radiator temperature and engine body temperature exceed the set temperature threshold, the relevant accessories are turned off for a short time on the premise that the corresponding temperature does not exceed the limit, thereby reducing the torque consumption of the vehicle accessories and improving the output power of the engine.

[0048] Furthermore, in order to start post-injection, adjust the advance angle, etc., the supercharger speed is quickly increased to increase the intake volume and improve the combustion efficiency. That is, if the fuel injection amount of the engine at the current speed exceeds the fuel injection amount corresponding to the corresponding external characteristic curve, the fuel system in the whole vehicle system is controlled to distribute power. At the same time, when it is recognized that the engine is under long-term high load, it can cooperate with the timer to increase the fuel injection amount for a short time while ensuring safety.

[0049] When a serious engine fault occurs, controlling the relevant subsystem to a degraded value is a protective measure to avoid the impact on engine safety after the fault function is activated. This degrade strategy is a measure automatically taken by the automobile intelligent control system to ensure the safe operation of the vehicle. In this embodiment, when the engine is judged to have a serious fault based on the fault detection parameters, the relevant subsystem is controlled to a degraded value to avoid the impact on engine safety after the activation of this function. In addition, when emissions deteriorate due to excessive load, the post-processing management system is turned on in time through this state to ensure engine emissions.

[0050] On the basis of the above, the ECU identifies the power limit of the engine under high load, that is, if the driver's torque demand is greater than the set torque threshold, the injection torque is greater than the set injection threshold, and the engine load rate is greater than the set load rate threshold, the corresponding control of the vehicle system subsystems for power distribution. Specifically, the driver's torque demand is greater than the set torque threshold, which usually means that the driver wants the vehicle to provide greater power output, so the accelerator pedal opening will be increased, which can be regarded as the driver's high demand for power; the injection torque refers to the maximum torque that the engine injection system can provide. When the injection torque is greater than the set injection threshold, it means that the engine is injecting fuel at its maximum capacity to meet the demand for high power output; the engine load rate refers to the ratio of the actual torque output to the maximum torque that the engine can output at a specific engine speed. When the engine load rate is greater than the set load rate threshold, it indicates that the engine is under a large workload, which also reflects the vehicle's strong demand for power. In summary, when these three conditions are met at the same time, it can be judged that the vehicle is in a state of strong power demand. In this state, the engine and transmission system need to work together to provide sufficient power to meet the driver's driving intention and the vehicle's operating needs.

[0051] Furthermore, before controlling the power distribution of each subsystem in the vehicle system according to the driver's torque demand, injection torque and engine load rate, it also includes: obtaining the external characteristic torque, overheating protection limit torque, fault protection limit torque and smoke limit torque of the engine under the current working condition.

[0052] The driver's torque demand is the torque demand currently input by the vehicle driver through the pedal, which is calculated by the engine control unit (ECU) based on the opening of the accelerator pedal and the current engine speed; the external characteristic torque is the external characteristic torque of the engine under the current operating conditions, that is, the maximum torque that the engine can output at this speed, which is usually given by the performance curve or data sheet provided by the engine manufacturer; the overheat protection limit torque is the limit torque set by the engine overheat protection system, that is, when the engine cooling system detects that the engine temperature is too high, in order to prevent engine damage, the ECU will reduce the torque output to a safe value; the fault protection limit torque is the limit torque set by the engine fault protection system, that is, when the engine control system detects a fault (such as sensor fault, actuator fault, etc.), in order to protect the engine and avoid further damage, the ECU will limit the torque output; the smoke limit torque is the limit torque set by the smoke limit system, which is usually related to emission control. Under emission control requirements, in order to prevent the engine from emitting excessive smoke, the ECU may limit the torque output to reduce the amount of fuel injection.

[0053] Specifically, if the driver's torque demand is greater than the external characteristic torque, or the driver's torque demand is greater than the overheating protection limit torque, or the driver's torque demand is greater than the fault protection limit torque, or the driver's torque demand is greater than the smoke limit torque, the engine is controlled to enter the external characteristic limit mode, overheating protection limit mode, fault limit mode or smoke limit mode accordingly, and each subsystem in the vehicle system performs corresponding power distribution.

[0054] That is to say, the smallest limit torque among the external characteristic torque, overheat protection limit torque, fault protection limit torque and smoke limit torque is used as the output torque of the engine, and the limit mode corresponding to the smallest limit torque is used as the torque limit mode of the engine, that is, if the driver's required torque is less than or equal to the external characteristic torque, and no other limit torque is in effect, then it is currently in normal driving mode; if the overheat protection limit torque is the smallest, then it is currently in overheat protection mode; if the fault protection limit torque is the smallest, then it is currently in engine fault protection mode; if the smoke limit torque is the smallest, then it is currently in emission control mode.

[0055] It should be noted that the actual vehicle control system may have more complex logic and algorithms to handle these torque limits, including considering the combination and priority of multiple limit conditions. In addition, different vehicle and engine manufacturers may have different torque limit strategies and mode definitions. Therefore, in specific applications, specific analysis and design are required based on actual conditions.

[0056] Based on the above embodiment, when it is identified that the length of time the engine is in a high-load condition exceeds a set time threshold, a downshift request signal is sent to the gearbox to control the gearbox to change the speed ratio and improve the traction of the vehicle, thereby ensuring the improvement of the vehicle's power.

[0057] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention obtains the safety protection parameters in the process of engine power enhancement and the power limitation parameters when the engine power is under high load, the safety protection parameters include cooling system parameters, fuel system parameters and fault detection parameters, and the power limitation parameters include driver torque demand, injection torque and engine load rate; according to the cooling system parameters, fuel system parameters, fault detection parameters, driver torque demand, injection torque and engine load rate, each subsystem in the vehicle system is controlled to distribute power. The present invention calculates the engine power limitation state and limitation reasons through each module of the ECU, coordinates the whole engine system to jointly optimize the control, and can ensure that when the power demand suddenly increases or the engine output power is continuously limited, the engine output efficiency is further improved to avoid problems such as speed drop when climbing a slope, and at the same time, the safety protection conditions are considered to ensure the reliability and emission of the engine.
