[0002] With the continuous advancement of information technology and intelligentization in vehicle powertrains, monitoring and evaluating powertrain performance degradation has become a key challenge in preventive maintenance. Traditional powertrain performance prediction primarily focuses on component-level testing, using engine sensor parameters such as engine speed, oil pressure, oil temperature, intake air temperature, and output torque for condition prediction and fault diagnosis. However, with the advancement of information technology, data-driven systems have become a powerful tool for equipment condition monitoring. A key component of data-driven powertrain thermal efficiency assessment is the selection of parameters that characterize thermal efficiency. Based on thermodynamic and physical model analysis, 15 parameters related to thermal efficiency have been identified, including circulating oil volume, rail pressure, oil temperature, speed, torque, coolant flow rate, coolant temperature, coolant specific heat, intake air temperature, intake pressure, intake air flow rate, exhaust temperature, exhaust pressure, exhaust flow rate, and ambient temperature. The Pearson correlation coefficient analysis method has been widely used in determining characterization parameters due to its simplicity, intuitiveness, and ease of understanding. However, it has certain drawbacks in analyzing correlations in multivariate and nonlinear data. This results in poor adaptability of the selected thermal efficiency characterization parameters to operating conditions, leading to inaccurate state assessments under certain operating conditions and inhibiting widespread application of powertrain thermal efficiency state assessment. Research on methods for optimizing powertrain thermal efficiency characterization parameters, selecting more adaptable correlation analysis methods, and optimizing powertrain thermal efficiency characterization parameters are crucial for improving vehicle powertrain degradation state assessment capabilities.

Each time step includes 15 heat flow characterization parameters, including circulating oil volume, rail pressure, oil temperature, speed, torque, coolant flow, coolant temperature, coolant specific heat, intake temperature, intake pressure, intake flow, exhaust temperature, exhaust pressure, exhaust flow, and ambient temperature.
[0014] Wherein, in said step S2, thermal efficiency characterization parameters are screened;
