[0042] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of the present disclosure, the scheme of the present disclosure will be further described below. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0043] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present disclosure, but the present disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; it is obvious that the embodiments in the specification are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0044] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a method for detecting a fault in a fuel evaporative emission system of a vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method for detecting a fault in a fuel evaporative emission system of a vehicle can be applied to application scenarios where a fault detection of a fuel evaporative emission system of a vehicle is required. The method can be executed by a control device of a vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, and the control device of the vehicle can be implemented in software and / or hardware. Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0045] S101. Obtain at least one of a pressure test value of a leakage detection module and a pressure test value of a fuel tank.

[0046] With the increasingly stringent requirements on fuel consumption and emissions in relevant regulations, as well as the development of electrification systems, hybrid technology is the key to achieving energy conservation and emission reduction. In order to adapt to national policies and meet emission regulations, vehicle manufacturers and parts suppliers are looking for solutions. However, the battery technology of pure electric vehicle technology systems is complex and the cost is high, so hybrid systems are vigorously promoted. The dual-motor hybrid system has three modes: pure electric mode, series mode and parallel mode. In series mode, the motor P2 installed at the input end of the gearbox drives the wheels. In series mode, the clutch is not engaged, and the engine charges the battery through the motor P1 integrated on the crankshaft of the engine. The motor P2 installed at the input end of the gearbox drives the wheels. In parallel mode, the clutch is engaged and the engine directly drives the wheels.

[0047] In the fuel evaporative emission system, fuel vapor is discharged to the carbon canister through the valve on the fuel tank. The carbon canister contains activated carbon and has the function of adsorbing fuel vapor. When the engine is started, fresh air is sucked into the carbon canister and sent to the engine to participate in combustion together with the fuel vapor adsorbed by the activated carbon. For example, in hybrid vehicles, especially plug-in hybrid vehicles, there is a long-term use of electric drive mode. In the electric mode, the fuel vapor adsorbed by the carbon canister cannot be effectively desorbed. If the vapor in the fuel tank is always discharged to the carbon canister, it is easy to cause the carbon canister to be saturated. The saturated fuel vapor will be directly discharged into the environment, causing environmental pollution. Therefore, it is necessary to install a fuel tank isolation valve (FTIV) between the fuel tank and the carbon canister to seal the fuel vapor in the fuel tank in the fuel tank. Generally, the fuel tank isolation valve is closed. When it is necessary to reduce the high pressure in the fuel tank, the fuel tank isolation valve is opened so that the high-pressure fuel vapor can be discharged to the carbon canister for storage, and the low pressure in the fuel tank is compensated, or when it is necessary to compensate the low pressure in the fuel tank, the fuel tank isolation valve is opened to discharge the gas in the carbon canister to the fuel tank.

[0048] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of a fuel evaporative emission system for a vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. The fuel evaporative emission system may, for example, include a leakage detection module 1, a carbon canister 2, a fuel tank 3 and a fuel tank isolation valve 4. The fuel tank isolation valve 4 may, for example, be a switch valve, and may include a solenoid valve, a low-pressure protection valve, an over-pressure protection valve and a pressure sensor 13. Among them, the low-pressure protection valve is used to compensate for the low pressure inside the fuel tank 3, the over-pressure protection valve is mainly used to release the high pressure inside the fuel tank 3, the pressure sensor 13 is used to monitor the pressure inside the fuel tank 3 in real time, and the solenoid valve on the fuel tank isolation valve 4 is controlled by the ECU (Electronic Control Unit) on the vehicle, and is used to quickly remove the fuel vapor in the fuel tank 3. For the sake of clarity, Figure 2 The pressure sensor 13 in the oil tank isolation valve 4 is shown on the oil tank 3 .

[0049] In order to detect the failure of the fuel tank isolation valve 4 in time, the embodiment of the present disclosure also sets a leakage detection module 1 in the fuel evaporative emission system. The leakage detection module 1 can detect the failure of the fuel tank isolation valve 4 in time. The leakage detection module 1 can be controlled by the engine management system 5 and installed at the breathing port of the carbon canister 2. In addition, the engine management system 5 also controls the switch of the engine 6. The engine 6 is connected to the carbon canister control valve 7 through the intake pipe.

[0050] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a leakage detection module provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the leakage detection module 1 includes a vacuum pump 11, a reversing valve 15, a pressure sensor 13 and a throttle hole 12. The vacuum pump 11 is also provided with a motor. Figure 3The arrow in the figure represents the gas flow direction. The aperture of the throttle hole 12 can be set based on the requirements in the relevant regulations, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit this. When the reversing valve 15 is not energized, the atmosphere and the breathing port of the carbon canister 2 are connected, and when the fault detection of the fuel tank isolation valve 4 is performed, the reversing valve 15 in the leakage detection module 1 is opened.

[0051] In addition, since the leakage detection module is introduced into the fuel evaporative emission system, it is also necessary to detect the fault of the leakage detection module itself to prevent new faults from being introduced into the fuel evaporative emission system and affecting the accuracy of the fault detection of the fuel tank isolation valve. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain at least one of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank to determine the cause of the fault of the fuel evaporative emission system.

[0052] S102 : Determine a fault cause of the fuel evaporative emission system based on at least one of a pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and a pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank.

[0053] Specifically, the cause of the failure of the fuel evaporative emission system may include, for example, different types of failures such as a failure of the leakage detection module and a failure of the fuel tank isolation valve. By determining the cause of the failure of the fuel evaporative emission system according to at least one of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank, the failure of the fuel evaporative emission system can be detected in time, and the problem of the vehicle still driving when the fuel evaporative emission system fails, resulting in gas emissions that do not meet the requirements and cause pollution to the environment, is avoided, so that the gas emissions of the vehicle can meet the requirements of relevant regulations.

[0054] Optionally, based on at least one of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank, the cause of the failure of the fuel evaporative emission system is determined, including: controlling the fuel tank isolation valve to open; based on the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank being greater than a first pressure threshold, determining that a drift fault occurs in the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve, and / or, based on the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module being greater than a second pressure threshold, determining that a drift fault occurs in the pressure sensor in the leakage detection module.

[0055] In some embodiments, before detecting whether a drift fault occurs in the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve and / or the pressure sensor in the leakage detection module, it also includes: determining whether the fuel evaporative emission system executes a fast pass mode, and the fast pass mode refers to a mode in which the fuel tank isolation valve has no leakage and does not require detection and diagnosis. For example, the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank detected by the pressure sensor of the fuel tank isolation valve can be obtained. If the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is greater than or equal to the eleventh pressure threshold and less than or equal to the twelfth pressure threshold, it means that the fuel evaporative emission system is working normally and the fuel tank isolation valve has no leakage or other faults, then the subsequent fault detection work is no longer performed and the fast pass mode is executed. If the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is less than the eleventh pressure threshold, or greater than the twelfth pressure threshold, it means that the fuel evaporative emission system has a fault and cannot execute the fast pass mode, and the subsequent fault detection process needs to be executed.

[0056] Among them, the eleventh pressure threshold should not be lower than the maximum pressure limit when the low-pressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve is opened, and the twelfth pressure threshold should not be higher than the maximum pressure limit when the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve is opened. For example, if the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is detected to be less than or equal to pressure PA1, it is necessary to open the low-pressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve, then the setting value of the eleventh pressure threshold should be greater than or equal to PA1, and if the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is detected to be greater than or equal to pressure PA2, it is necessary to open the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve, then the setting value of the twelfth pressure threshold should be less than or equal to PA2.

[0057] After determining that the fast pass mode cannot be executed, since it is confirmed that the fuel evaporative emission system has a fault, the pressure in the fuel tank does not meet the pressure during normal operation, so it is necessary to open the fuel tank isolation valve to compensate for the pressure in the fuel tank. For example, when the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is less than the eleventh pressure threshold, the low-pressure protection valve of the fuel tank isolation valve is opened to compensate the pressure in the fuel tank, or when the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is greater than the twelfth pressure threshold, the overpressure protection valve of the fuel tank isolation valve is opened to release the pressure in the fuel tank. It should be noted that the opening time of the fuel tank isolation valve can be set according to the normal pressure limit of the fuel evaporative emission system, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.

[0058] After the pressure compensation of the fuel tank is completed, the fuel tank isolation valve is still in the open state, and the fuel tank, carbon canister and atmosphere form a passage. The pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module detected by the pressure sensor of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank detected by the pressure sensor of the fuel tank isolation valve should be near zero. If the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is greater than the first pressure threshold, it means that the test data of the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve is drifting and cannot be stabilized within the first pressure threshold range, which means that the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve has a drift fault. If the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module is greater than the second pressure threshold, it means that the test data of the pressure sensor in the leakage detection module is drifting and cannot be stabilized within the second pressure threshold range, which means that the pressure sensor in the leakage detection module has a drift fault.

[0059] It should be noted that the first pressure threshold may be, for example, 2 kPa, and the second pressure threshold may be, for example, 2 kPa. The first pressure threshold and the second pressure threshold may be equal or unequal. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific values ​​of the first pressure threshold and the second pressure threshold, as long as they can meet the actual use requirements of the vehicle.

[0060] Optionally, the fault detection method for the fuel evaporative emission system of a vehicle also includes: determining that the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve is working normally based on the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank being less than or equal to a first pressure threshold, and / or determining that the pressure sensor in the leakage detection module is working normally based on the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module being less than or equal to a second pressure threshold; controlling the fuel tank isolation valve to close, and stopping the detection of the fault of the fuel evaporative emission system based on the absolute value of the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank being greater than a third pressure threshold within the first time threshold for closing the fuel tank isolation valve.

[0061] Specifically, if the pressure test value FTIVP based on the fuel tank is less than or equal to the first pressure threshold, it means that the test data of the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve has not drifted and can be stabilized within the first pressure threshold range, which means that the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve works normally without drift failure. If the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module is less than or equal to the second pressure threshold, it means that the test data of the pressure sensor in the leakage detection module has not drifted and can be stabilized within the second pressure threshold range, which means that the pressure sensor in the leakage detection module works normally without drift failure.

[0062] After detecting that the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve is operating normally, and / or the pressure sensor in the leakage detection module is operating normally, the pressure in the fuel tank can be compensated, for example, by opening the low-pressure protection valve of the fuel tank isolation valve to compensate for the pressure in the fuel tank, so as to make up for the gas leaked in the fuel tank after the fuel tank isolation valve is opened. After compensating the pressure in the fuel tank, for example, the drift mean of the test data of the pressure sensor of the leakage detection module and the drift mean of the test data of the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve can be calculated, that is, the average value of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the average value of the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank over a period of time can be obtained. The overall level of the fuel evaporation emission system of the vehicle under investigation can be roughly seen by calculating the drift mean.

[0063] After calculating the drift mean of the test data of the pressure sensor of the leakage detection module and the drift mean of the test data of the pressure sensor in the fuel tank isolation valve, the fuel tank isolation valve is controlled to be closed, and within the first time threshold of the fuel tank isolation valve being closed, it is determined that the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is greater than the third pressure threshold. For example, within 0.2 seconds, the absolute value of the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is greater than 0.7 kpa, indicating that the fuel evaporation rate is fast. Since the fuel evaporation rate is affected by the ambient temperature, it indicates that the ambient temperature at this time is not suitable for detecting the fault of the fuel evaporation emission system, and the detection of the fault of the fuel evaporation emission system is stopped. For the setting of the third pressure threshold, the fuel tank can be emptied and filled with winter fuel, and placed in an artificial climate test chamber for leakage-free detection. The first time threshold and the third pressure threshold are not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0064] During the evaporation stability test, even if the fuel evaporation rate is not fast, slight changes in the fuel tank pressure may occur. Therefore, in order to ensure the accuracy of subsequent tests, after the evaporation stability test is completed, the fuel tank isolation valve is opened again to compensate for the fuel tank pressure. The compensation time can be determined based on the actual pressure of the fuel tank, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0065] Optionally, based on at least one of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank, determining the cause of the failure of the fuel evaporative emission system includes: controlling the leakage detection module to turn on; determining that the leakage detection timeout of the fuel tank isolation valve is based on the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module being greater than a fourth pressure threshold and lasting for a second time threshold.

[0066] For example, the basic principle of the leakage detection module to detect leakage failure in the fuel evaporative emission system can be to use a pressure drop method. Figure 3When the engine is stopped, a pressure drop is generated at the throttle hole 12 based on the operation of the vacuum pump 11, and the saturated pressure Pref at the throttle hole 12 is tested. After the reversing valve 15 is opened, the fuel evaporative emission system is connected to the vacuum pump 11, and the fuel evaporative emission system will generate a corresponding pressure drop. The saturated pressure detected by the pressure sensor 13 of the leakage detection module 1 is used as the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module 1. By comparing the pressure test value of the leakage detection module 1 and the saturated pressure Pref at the throttle hole 12, it can be determined whether a leakage fault occurs in the fuel evaporative emission system.

[0067] Exemplarily, the pressure test value of the leakage detection module 1 is less than or equal to the saturation pressure Pref at the throttle hole 12, indicating that the leakage aperture of the fuel evaporative emission system is smaller than the throttle hole 12, which basically meets the requirements of relevant regulations. The pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module 1 is greater than the saturation pressure Pref, which does not meet the requirements of relevant regulations, and it is determined that a leakage fault occurs in the fuel evaporative emission system.

[0068] The gas flow rate and saturation pressure at the throttle hole 12 satisfy the following relationship:

[0069]

[0070] Among them, α is the flow coefficient; A is the area of ​​the throttle hole, the unit is mm 2 ; ρ is the air density, unit is g / mL; P is the saturation pressure, unit is kPa.

[0071] The linear function of gas flow rate and saturation pressure satisfies the following relationship:

[0072] Q=K1·P+K2

[0073] Among them, K1 is the slope, K2 is the pressure of the vacuum pump under no load, the unit is kPa; P is the saturation pressure, the unit is kPa.

[0074] Based on the above formula, the saturation pressure at the throttle hole 12 can be obtained.

[0075] If the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module is greater than the fourth pressure threshold, for example, the saturation pressure Pref, and lasts for the second time threshold, it means that the pressure of the fuel evaporative emission system cannot be adjusted through the fuel tank isolation valve, and it is determined that a leakage fault occurs in the fuel evaporative emission system and the leakage detection of the fuel tank isolation valve has timed out.

[0076] Optionally, controlling the leakage detection module to turn on includes: controlling the motor of the vacuum pump of the leakage detection module to turn on, and controlling the oil tank isolation valve to close; before determining that the oil tank isolation valve leakage detection times out, it also includes: based on the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module being less than or equal to the fifth pressure threshold, determining that the vacuum pump of the leakage detection module is operating normally.

[0077] Specifically, the fault detection of the fuel evaporative emission system requires the use of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module. In order to ensure the accuracy of the monitoring of the fuel evaporative emission system, the status of the leakage detection module also needs to be monitored to ensure that there is no fault in the leakage detection module itself, otherwise the entire detection will be terminated directly.

[0078] Figure 3 exemplarily shows the state where the motor of the leakage detection module 1 is turned on and the reversing valve 15 is closed. At this time, the fuel tank isolation valve is also in a closed state, and the carbon canister 2 and the atmosphere form a passage. When the motor of the vacuum pump 11 is working, a pressure drop is generated in the connecting pipeline between the throttle hole 12 and the vacuum pump 11. After a period of time, the pressure sensor 13 of the leakage detection module 1 will detect the minimum saturated negative pressure, that is, the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module 1 will reach the minimum. However, with the aging of the vacuum pump 11 or the emergence of problems such as poor sealing of the vacuum pump 11, the vacuum pump 11 cannot achieve an effective vacuum pump 11 suction function, resulting in an increase in the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module 1. Therefore, when the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module 1 is greater than the fifth pressure threshold, it is determined that the vacuum pump 11 of the leakage detection module 1 is faulty. When the pressure test value of the leakage detection module 1 is less than or equal to the fifth pressure threshold, it is determined that the vacuum pump 11 of the leakage detection module 1 is operating normally.

[0079] In some embodiments, a time factor may be introduced. When the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module 1 is greater than the fifth pressure threshold within a third time threshold, such as 10 seconds, it is determined that the vacuum pump 11 of the leakage detection module 1 is faulty to improve the accuracy of fault detection.

[0080] It should be noted that the fifth pressure threshold and the third time threshold can be set according to the actual use requirements of the vehicle, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited to this.

[0081] Optionally, controlling the leakage detection module to turn on includes: controlling the motor and the reversing valve of the leakage detection module to turn on, and controlling the oil tank isolation valve to close: before determining that the oil tank isolation valve leakage detection times out, it also includes: based on the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module being greater than or equal to a sixth pressure threshold, determining that the reversing valve of the leakage detection module is operating normally.

[0082] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the structure of another leakage detection module provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 4 The arrows in represent the gas flow direction. Figure 4As shown, the oil tank isolation valve is controlled to be closed, and the motor and reversing valve 15 of the vacuum pump 11 of the leakage detection module 1 are controlled to be opened, and the vacuum pump 11 is directly connected to the carbon canister 2. As the vacuum pump 11 works, the fuel evaporation emission system will form a pressure drop, and after a period of time, the pressure sensor 13 of the leakage detection module 1 will detect a negative pressure. Since the reversing valve 15 is normally open, the pressure sensor 13 of the leakage detection module 1 will respond quickly, and the detected negative pressure will be very small. Therefore, the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module 1 detected by the pressure sensor 13 of the leakage detection module 1 is less than the sixth pressure threshold, for example, 2kPa, indicating that the reversing valve 15 has a normally open fault. When the pressure test value of the leakage detection module 1 detected by the pressure sensor 13 of the leakage detection module 1 is greater than or equal to the sixth pressure threshold, it indicates that the reversing valve 15 is operating normally.

[0083] In some embodiments, a time factor may be introduced. When the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module 1 is less than the sixth pressure threshold within a fourth time threshold, such as 2 seconds, it is determined that a normally open fault has occurred in the reversing valve 15 to improve the accuracy of fault detection.

[0084] It should be noted that the sixth pressure threshold and the fourth time threshold can be set according to the actual use requirements of the vehicle, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited to this.

[0085] Optionally, based on at least one of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank, determining the cause of the failure of the fuel evaporative emission system includes: controlling the fuel tank isolation valve to be closed and controlling the leakage detection module to be opened, and determining that the overpressure detection of the fuel tank isolation valve is abnormal based on that the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module is less than the seventh pressure threshold and the pressure test value of the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve is greater than the eighth pressure threshold; wherein the pressure test value of the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve is determined by the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank.

[0086] Specifically, the pressure test value OPTV of the overpressure protection valve in the tank isolation valve satisfies the following formula:

[0087] OPTV=-FTIVP·(OPm+OPk·ELCMP)

[0088] Among them, FTIVP is the pressure test value of the fuel tank, in kPa; OPm is the overpressure test pressure compensation, generally set to 4.5kPa; OPK is the overpressure test compensation coefficient, generally set to 1; ELCMP is the pressure test value of the leakage detection module, in kPa.

[0089] It can be known from the calculation formula of the pressure test value OPTV of the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve that the pressure test value OPTV of the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve will increase with the increase of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module. When the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module is less than the seventh pressure threshold and the pressure test value of the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve is greater than the eighth pressure threshold, it means that the pressure test value OPTV of the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve and the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module are no longer proportional, indicating that the overpressure protection valve in the fuel tank isolation valve has a leak, and the overpressure detection of the fuel tank isolation valve is determined to be abnormal. The seventh pressure threshold can be, for example, the overpressure test target pressure, such as -1.3kPa, and the eighth pressure threshold can be, for example, 3kPa. It can be understood that the seventh pressure threshold and the eighth pressure threshold can also be other values ​​that can meet the testing requirements of the vehicle, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.

[0090] In some embodiments, if the overpressure detection of the fuel tank isolation valve is normal, the fuel tank gas volume is calculated. The purpose of calculating the fuel tank gas volume is to provide a reference for compensating the fuel tank pressure, or to stop detecting the fault of the fuel evaporative emission system if the gas volume in the fuel tank is very small. It should be noted here that the calculated fuel tank gas volume is the volume of the gas in the fuel tank, not the volume of the fuel in the fuel tank.

[0091] The gas volume in the tank is usually greater than the specified maximum fuel volume because the gas volume here also includes the filling of the pipes and other places where the pipes are not completely filled with liquid. The ideal gas state equation is mainly used to calculate the gas volume in the tank. When opening or closing the tank isolation valve, the approximate value can be calculated from the internal pressure and external pressure of the tank isolation valve.

[0092] Assuming there is no environmental leakage, before the tank isolation valve is opened, the pressure outside the tank isolation valve and the pressure inside the tank are both ambient pressure. When the tank isolation valve is opened, the pressure inside and outside the tank isolation valve is equal, and the volume V of the gas in the tank satisfies the following formula:

[0093]

[0094] Among them, V e —Volume of the fuel evaporative emission system; P e It is the pressure of the fuel evaporative emission system before the fuel tank isolation valve opens; P c It is the pressure of the fuel evaporative emission system after the fuel tank isolation valve is opened; P t Open the tank isolation valve to the internal tank pressure.

[0095] After the fuel tank isolation valve is opened, the basic principle of the approximate calculation of the pressure of the fuel evaporative emission system is to find the average pressure within a sampling time, Pc Satisfies the following formula:

[0096]

[0097] Among them, p_FtivRaw is the unfiltered value in the test value of the pressure sensor of the fuel tank isolation valve, in kPa; OffsFtiv is the zero drift value of the pressure sensor of the fuel tank isolation valve, in kPa; ts is the sampling period, in seconds; time is the detection time, in seconds.

[0098] Optionally, based on at least one of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank, the cause of the failure of the fuel evaporative emission system is determined, including: controlling the fuel tank isolation valve and the leakage detection module to be opened, and determining that the fuel tank isolation valve has a normally closed fault based on the absolute value of the difference between the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank being greater than a ninth pressure threshold.

[0099] Specifically, control the oil tank isolation valve and the leakage detection module to be open. If the oil tank isolation valve cannot be opened normally, the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the oil tank will be very large, that is, the absolute value of the difference between the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module, i.e. the pressure value outside the oil tank, and the pressure test value FTIVP of the oil tank, i.e. the pressure value inside the oil tank, is greater than the ninth pressure threshold, then it is determined that the oil tank isolation valve has a normally closed fault.

[0100] The normally closed fault test value StCITV satisfies the following formula:

[0101] StCITV=FTIVP-ELCMP

[0102] Among them, FTIVP is the pressure test value of the fuel tank, and ELCMP is the pressure test value of the leakage detection module. When the absolute value of the normally closed fault test value StCITV is greater than the ninth threshold, it is determined that the fuel tank isolation valve has a normally closed fault. When the absolute value of the normally closed fault test value StCITV is less than or equal to the ninth threshold, it is determined that the fuel tank isolation valve does not have a normally closed fault.

[0103] Optionally, based on at least one of the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module and the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank, the cause of the failure of the fuel evaporative emission system is determined, including: controlling the fuel tank isolation valve and the leakage detection module to close, and determining that the low pressure detection of the fuel tank isolation valve is abnormal based on the change in the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank being greater than a tenth pressure threshold.

[0104] Specifically, when the fuel tank isolation valve and the leakage detection module are both closed, if the low-pressure protection valve of the fuel tank isolation valve does not leak, the pressure of the fuel tank will remain constant, and the pressure test value ELCMP of the leakage detection module will return to near zero. Therefore, based on the fact that the change in the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is greater than the tenth pressure threshold, it is determined that the low-pressure protection valve of the fuel tank isolation valve is faulty, such as a leakage fault, and the low-pressure detection of the fuel tank isolation valve is abnormal. If the change in the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank is less than or equal to the tenth pressure threshold, it is determined that the low-pressure detection of the fuel tank isolation valve is normal. Exemplarily, the change in the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank can be, for example, the difference between the maximum value of the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank and the minimum value of the pressure test value FTIVP of the fuel tank within a preset time period.
