Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of gas detection, in particular to an oxygen concentration monitoring device and system in an automobile exhaust pipe. BACKGROUND

[0002] The oxygen concentration sensor installed in the automobile exhaust pipe is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas and determine the combustion state of the engine. Most of them are based on the electrochemical principle of zirconia ceramic: by comparing the oxygen concentration difference between the exhaust gas and the reference air, an electric signal is generated, or the real oxygen concentration is reflected by the pump current.

[0003] The traditional oxygen concentration detection in the exhaust pipe adopts a single sampling point form for detection. Since the gas composition in the center of the exhaust pipe and near the wall is different, vortex and backflow are more likely to occur near the wall, and the oxygen in the backflow exhaust gas is less, and the oxygen proportion in the center mainstream is higher, so single-point measurement may be high or low. In order to overcome this problem, the prior art uses multiple probe arrangements to overcome the shortcomings of single-point detection, or tries to collect gas in different areas in a probe with a ring-shaped sampling head, or mixes and detects in a bypass chamber. The cost of multiple probes is high, the arrangement is complex, and the ECU calculation is large. The mixing of the ring-shaped sampling head is not complete and is easy to block. The bypass chamber needs to be fully mixed, and the response delay is large.

[0004] At the same time, the detection accuracy of the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor is not uniform, but the accuracy is highest in a certain oxygen concentration range, and decreases significantly on both sides. With the uneven fluctuation of the exhaust gas, sometimes it may deviate from the optimal concentration range, resulting in that the detection data cannot be used many times. Therefore, it is necessary to design an automobile exhaust pipe oxygen concentration monitoring device and system with high detection accuracy. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide an oxygen concentration monitoring device and system in an automobile exhaust pipe to solve the problems raised in the background art.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides the following technical scheme: an oxygen concentration monitoring device in an automobile exhaust pipe, comprising an exhaust pipe, the inner walls of both sides of the exhaust pipe are correspondingly provided with a center sampling pipe and a near-wall sampling pipe, one end of the center sampling pipe extends to the center of the exhaust pipe, one end of the near-wall sampling pipe is connected with the inner wall of the exhaust pipe, the center sampling pipe and the near-wall sampling pipe are connected with each other, and a Venturi tube is connected with both of them, the inside of the Venturi tube is provided with a zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor, and one end of the Venturi tube is connected with an air pump.

[0007] According to the technical scheme, the other end of the Venturi tube is connected with a filtering channel, the upper and lower inner walls of the filtering channel are correspondingly provided with oxygen selective membranes, the oxygen selective membranes and the inner walls of the filtering channel form a closed cavity, the two sides of the filtering channel are connected with the nozzle section of the Venturi tube through pipelines, the two sides of the filtering channel are respectively provided with a low threshold pressure transmitter and a high threshold pressure transmitter, the center sampling pipe is provided with an electric control throttle valve one, and the near wall sampling pipe is provided with an electric control throttle valve two.

[0008] According to the technical scheme, the oxygen concentration acquisition module is electrically connected with the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor, the sampling ratio adjustment module is electrically connected with the throttle valve control unit, the low threshold pressure transmitter and the high threshold pressure transmitter, the throttle valve control unit is electrically connected with the electric control throttle valve one and the electric control throttle valve two, and the optimal concentration range setting module is electrically connected with the oxygen concentration correction module. The oxygen concentration acquisition module is used for processing a weak electric signal output by the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor and acquiring an oxygen concentration value, the sampling ratio adjustment module is used for calculating a sampling ratio of gases in the center and the near wall of the exhaust pipe, the throttle valve control unit is used for controlling the flow of the electric control throttle valve one and the electric control throttle valve two, the optimal concentration range setting module is used for setting an optimal oxygen concentration range, and the oxygen concentration correction module is used for correcting the detection result of the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor according to the sampling ratio of the gases, and calculating a real oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe.

[0009] According to the technical scheme, S1, the gas pump is started, the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor is used to detect the oxygen concentration under the condition that the center sampling pipe and the near wall sampling pipe are separately connected, the average oxygen concentration ratio of the center and the near wall of the exhaust pipe is calculated, and the opening ratio of the electric control throttle valve one and the electric control throttle valve two is calculated when the detection accuracy is the highest. S2, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe is continuously detected at the opening ratio, the trigger pressures of the low threshold pressure transmitter and the high threshold pressure transmitter are set, and the oxygen in the middle part of the filtering channel is extracted to both sides by the negative pressure of the nozzle section as the gases flow in the Venturi tube. S3, when the oxygen concentration in the filtering channel is too high or too low, the low threshold pressure transmitter and the high threshold pressure transmitter act, the electric control throttle valve one and the electric control throttle valve two adjust the opening ratio, and the oxygen concentration in the filtering channel is adjusted to the vicinity of the optimal sampling range of the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor. S4, according to the current opening ratio of the electric control throttle valve one and the electric control throttle valve two, the detection result of the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor is corrected, and the real oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe is calculated.

[0010] According to the above technical scheme, in S1, the calculation process of the average oxygen concentration ratio is specifically: S1-1, because the center and near-wall gas composition in the exhaust pipe changes with the engine working condition and the environment, the electric control throttle valve one and the electric control throttle valve two are opened respectively and independently for a set time every time the car is normally and stably driven , and the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the center of the exhaust pipe and the oxygen concentration near the wall of the exhaust pipe within ; S1-2, according to the oxygen concentration detection formula: , wherein is the sensor output voltage, is the gas constant, is the temperature, is the Faraday constant, is the oxygen partial pressure in the exhaust gas, is the oxygen partial pressure in the air, and the oxygen partial pressure is proportional to the oxygen concentration, and the conversion coefficient of the two is , is a known quantity, and it is verified by experiments that the detection accuracy is highest when , so the oxygen concentration when the detection accuracy is highest is calculated , and when selecting the type of zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor, it is necessary to ensure that , at this time the sampling gas oxygen concentration is , , and and are calculated, so that the opening ratio of the electric control throttle valve one and the electric control throttle valve two when the detection accuracy is highest is obtained.

[0011] According to the above technical scheme, in S2, the setting method of the trigger pressure is: S2-1, under the constant flow of the gas pump, the negative pressure of the Venturi tube will extract the oxygen in the filter channel to both sides, because the oxygen selective membrane can only permeate oxygen and block other gas molecules, the higher the oxygen concentration in the filter channel, the higher the pressure in the cavity between the oxygen selective membrane and the inner wall of the filter channel, until the trigger pressure of the high threshold pressure transmitter is reached, and vice versa. The lower the oxygen concentration in the filter channel, the lower the pressure in the cavity between the oxygen selective membrane and the inner wall of the filter channel, until the trigger pressure of the low threshold pressure transmitter is reached. S2-2, the best detection range is to The median value. The range of values, i.e., the minimum oxygen concentration within the optimal detection range, is... The highest oxygen concentration within the optimal detection range is ,in The constant is determined based on the actual situation. The oxygen supply ratio at the center of the exhaust pipe is gradually increased to adjust the oxygen concentration within the venturi tube. Elevation until detected At this point, record the pressure detected by the high threshold pressure transmitter. Slowly increase the proportion of oxygen supplied near the wall of the exhaust pipe to reduce the oxygen concentration in the venturi tube. Decrease until detected At this point, record the pressure detected by the low threshold pressure transmitter. , and These are the trigger pressures for the high-threshold pressure transmitter and the low-threshold pressure transmitter, respectively.

[0012] According to the above technical solution, in step S3, adjusting the opening ratio is subject to two triggering conditions: S3-1, When the trigger condition is a high threshold pressure transmitter, the detected pressure value is... If the oxygen concentration is too high, the opening of the electronically controlled throttle valve one is reduced and the opening of the electronically controlled throttle valve two is increased, while maintaining the total gas flow rate of the central sampling tube and the near-wall sampling tube equal. S3-2, When the trigger condition is a low threshold pressure transmitter, the detected pressure value is... If the oxygen concentration is too low, the opening of the electronically controlled throttle valve one is increased and the opening of the electronically controlled throttle valve two is decreased, while maintaining the total gas flow rate of the central sampling tube and the near-wall sampling tube equal. S3-3, Continue adjusting until the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor detects that the oxygen concentration reaches [the specified value]. Stop adjusting the opening of the electronically controlled throttle valve one and electronically controlled throttle valve two.

[0013] According to the above technical solution, in step S4, calculating the actual oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe specifically involves: when the adjustment stops, recording the opening degrees of the electronically controlled throttle valve one and the electronically controlled throttle valve two, and calculating their opening ratio to obtain the adjusted oxygen concentration. and Because the gas pumping ratio between the center and near the wall is artificially adjusted at this time, the actual oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe is different from that in other parts of the exhaust pipe. There is a deviation. Comparing the opening ratios of the electronically controlled throttle valve one and two with the highest detection accuracy in S1-2, the oxygen concentration is calculated without adjusting the openings of electronically controlled throttle valve one and two. Let the oxygen concentration at the center of the exhaust pipe in S3 be... The oxygen concentration near the wall of the exhaust pipe is , the formula is , , wherein The sign of the positive and negative is defined according to the actual detected pressure in the filter channel, and the calculation is obtained And The real oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe is calculated.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present application are: the present application has a core sampling port and a near-wall sampling port in the exhaust pipe, and the center and near-wall of the exhaust pipe are sampled in a certain proportion, and the sampling gas passes through the filter channel with an oxygen selective microcavity film, when the oxygen concentration is too high or too low, the filter channel characteristics change suddenly, resulting in the change of the pressure transmitter display of the outlet, which controls the gas sampling ratio, when the oxygen concentration is too high, the near-wall gas sampling ratio of the exhaust pipe is increased, when the oxygen concentration is too low, the center gas sampling ratio of the exhaust pipe is increased, so that the oxygen concentration of the sampling gas is maintained near the optimal sampling range of the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor, the effectiveness of the detection data is improved throughout the period, this method is more flexible than the sampling method of the annular sampling head, and only one sensor is needed for detection, the cost is low, and a special mixed response is not needed, which is faster.

Conversely, the lower the oxygen concentration in the filter channel (3), the lower the pressure in the cavity between the oxygen selective membrane (31) and the inner wall of the filter channel (3), until the trigger pressure of the low threshold pressure transmitter (32) is reached. S2-2, The optimal detection range is based on The median value. The range of values, i.e., the minimum oxygen concentration within the optimal detection range, is... The highest oxygen concentration within the optimal detection range is ,in The constant is determined based on the actual situation. The oxygen supply ratio in the center of the exhaust pipe (1) is slowly increased to reduce the oxygen concentration in the venturi tube (4). Elevation until detected At this point, the pressure detected by the high threshold pressure transmitter (33) is recorded. Slowly increase the oxygen supply ratio near the wall of the exhaust pipe (1) to reduce the oxygen concentration in the venturi tube (4). Decrease until detected At this point, the pressure detected by the low threshold pressure transmitter (32) is recorded. , and The trigger pressures are the high threshold pressure transmitter (33) and the low threshold pressure transmitter (32), respectively.

7. The oxygen concentration monitoring system in an automobile exhaust pipe according to claim 6, characterized in that: In S3, adjusting the opening ratio is subject to two triggering conditions: S3-1, When the trigger condition is a high threshold pressure transmitter (33) detects a pressure value of When the oxygen concentration is too high, the opening of the first electronically controlled throttle valve (211) is reduced and the opening of the second electronically controlled throttle valve (221) is increased, and the total gas flow rate of the central sampling tube (21) and the near-wall sampling tube (22) is kept equal. S3-2, When the trigger condition is low threshold, the pressure transmitter (32) detects a pressure value of When the oxygen concentration is too low, the opening of the first electronically controlled throttle valve (211) is increased and the opening of the second electronically controlled throttle valve (221) is decreased, and the total gas flow rate of the central sampling tube (21) and the near-wall sampling tube (22) is kept equal. S3-3, Continue adjusting until the zirconia ceramic oxygen sensor (41) detects that the oxygen concentration reaches [the specified value]. Stop adjusting the opening of the electronically controlled throttle valve one (211) and the electronically controlled throttle valve two (221).

8. The oxygen concentration monitoring system in an automobile exhaust pipe according to claim 7, characterized in that: In step S4, the calculation of the actual oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe is specifically as follows: when the adjustment stops, record the opening degree of the electronically controlled throttle valve one (211) and the electronically controlled throttle valve two (221), and calculate the opening ratio of the two to obtain the adjusted oxygen concentration. and Because the gas pumping ratio between the center and near the wall is artificially adjusted at this time, the actual oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe is different from that in other parts of the exhaust pipe. There is a deviation. Comparing the opening ratios of the electronically controlled throttle valve one (211) and electronically controlled throttle valve two (221) when the detection accuracy is highest in S1-2, the oxygen concentration is calculated without adjusting the opening degrees of electronically controlled throttle valve one (211) and electronically controlled throttle valve two (221). Let the oxygen concentration at the center of the exhaust pipe (1) in S3 be... The oxygen concentration near the wall of the exhaust pipe (1) is The formula is , ,in The sign is determined based on the actual pressure detected inside the filter channel (3), and is calculated accordingly. and This allows for the calculation of the actual oxygen concentration inside the exhaust pipe.
