The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0026] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes a method and apparatus for tuning the intake and exhaust of a hybrid electric vehicle according to embodiments of this application. Addressing the issues mentioned in the background art, such as the high operating cost and complex testing process of rotary drum muffler test chambers, and the frequent occurrence of operating condition breaks in hybrid electric vehicles due to the limitation of engine power by the coordinated control of the battery and motor, leading to distortion of intake and exhaust tuning data and significantly increasing R&D costs and timelines, this application provides a method for tuning the intake and exhaust of a hybrid electric vehicle. In this method, the initial operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid electric vehicle under intake and exhaust tuning conditions are first obtained. This determines the current operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid electric vehicle in the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning conditions when stationary. Adjustment values ​​for the engine are generated based on the collected sound data until sound data meeting certain sound conditions is obtained. Tuning can be performed on any muffler, automating the tuning process, reducing human error, improving tuning accuracy, reducing equipment and labor costs, and shortening the R&D cycle. It allows the engine to operate at different continuous operating points while the vehicle is stationary, providing conditions for intake and exhaust tuning in a stationary state. It is compatible with multiple types of hybrid vehicles and supports personalized acoustic customization. This solves the technical problems in related technologies, such as the high operating cost and complex testing process of the drum silencing test chamber; and the frequent occurrence of operating condition breaks in hybrid vehicles due to the limitation of engine power by the coordinated control of the battery and motor, which leads to distortion of intake and exhaust sound tuning data and significantly increases R&D costs and time.

[0027] Specifically, Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a method for tuning the intake and exhaust of a hybrid electric vehicle according to an embodiment of this application.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the intake and exhaust tuning method for this hybrid vehicle includes the following steps: In step S101, the initial operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid vehicle in at least one intake and exhaust tuning condition are obtained.

[0029] As one possible approach, embodiments of this application can obtain the initial operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid electric vehicle under corresponding intake and exhaust tuning conditions.

[0030] The intake and exhaust tuning conditions may include, but are not limited to, full throttle acceleration (WOT), partial throttle acceleration (POT), coasting, idling, and stationary conditions. This application does not impose specific restrictions.

[0031] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, obtaining the initial operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid vehicle in at least one intake and exhaust tuning condition includes: obtaining operating data for the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning condition based on the target hybrid vehicle; and inputting the operating data into a pre-built intake and exhaust tuning parameter model to obtain the initial operating parameters.

[0032] In some embodiments, the present application can obtain operating condition data for the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning conditions based on the target hybrid electric vehicle, and then use a pre-built intake and exhaust tuning parameter model to obtain the corresponding initial operating condition parameters.

[0033] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, before obtaining the initial operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid vehicle in at least one intake and exhaust tuning condition, the method further includes: obtaining test condition data for the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning condition based on the test hybrid vehicle; obtaining the operating parameters of the engine in the test hybrid vehicle based on the test condition data; and constructing an intake and exhaust tuning parameter model based on the operating parameters and the test condition data.

[0034] It is understood that, in the embodiments of this application, the test condition data may include, but is not limited to, the intake and exhaust valve opening, engine speed and torque curves, intake and exhaust back pressure, sound pressure level and spectrum distribution, etc. in the WOT condition; the intake and exhaust valve opening, speed and torque under partial load, intake and exhaust flow rate and velocity, noise level and harmonic components, etc. in the POT condition; the intake and exhaust valve opening, engine speed decay rate, intake and exhaust pulse interval, residual noise level, etc. in the coasting condition; the intake and exhaust valve opening, idle speed stability, intake and exhaust manifold temperature and pressure, idle noise level and spectrum, etc. in the idling condition; and the intake and exhaust valve opening, engine net power corresponding speed, intake and exhaust system vibration and displacement, acoustic transmission path analysis, etc. in the stationary condition. This application does not impose specific limitations.

[0035] As one possible approach, embodiments of this application may first select a hybrid electric vehicle for testing and obtain test condition data under different intake and exhaust tuning conditions, thereby obtaining engine operating parameters such as engine power, speed, and speed rise rate. This application does not impose any specific limitations.

[0036] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the application, an intake and exhaust tuning parameter model can be constructed based on operating parameters and test data.

[0037] For example, in this application embodiment, a hybrid electric vehicle can be selected for testing, and the engine's operating parameters can be obtained based on the operating data corresponding to different intake and exhaust tuning conditions. Furthermore, in this application embodiment, the operating parameters can be formed into an independent software package to construct a corresponding intake and exhaust tuning parameter model for use in intake and exhaust tuning under static conditions. For example, in this application embodiment, engine power, speed, and speed rise rate can be used to simulate the engine operating curve under WOT conditions, as shown in Table 1. Table 1 is a schematic table of engine operating parameters under WOT conditions provided according to one embodiment of this application.

[0038] Table 1

[0039] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, an intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model is constructed based on operating parameters and test operating data, including: using the intake and exhaust valve opening, noise ratio, and intake and exhaust back pressure change rate from the test operating data as input data for the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model; using the engine power, speed, and speed increase rate from the operating parameters as output data for the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model; selecting a model structure and model parameters suitable for the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model based on the input and output data; and constructing the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model based on the model structure and model parameters.

[0040] In some embodiments, the present application embodiments can use the intake and exhaust valve opening, noise ratio, and intake and exhaust back pressure change rate in the test operating condition data as input data for the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model, and use the engine power, speed, and speed increase rate in the operating condition parameters as output data for the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model. Then, based on the input data and output data, a model structure and model parameters suitable for the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model are selected, and the corresponding intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model is constructed.

[0041] For example, the input data of the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model constructed in this application embodiment is a 3-dimensional vector, including intake and exhaust valve opening, noise ratio, intake and exhaust back pressure change rate, etc., and the output data is a 3-dimensional variable, including power, speed, speed increase rate, etc.

[0042] Furthermore, based on the nonlinear relationship between intake and exhaust back pressure and engine speed, this application embodiment can select a linear regression model that is simple to calculate and highly interpretable; it can select a decision tree regression model that is suitable for handling nonlinear relationships and does not require feature scaling; or it can select a support vector regression model that is suitable for small sample high-dimensional data and outputs smooth data. The specific settings can be made by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation, and this application does not impose specific limitations.

[0043] In this embodiment, the model can be used to normalize the input and output data and divide the data into training data and test data to determine the parameters of the model, thereby constructing the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning parameter model. Based on the test condition data in different intake and exhaust tuning conditions, the corresponding control strategy can be determined and the corresponding operating parameters can be generated.

[0044] In step S102, based on the initial operating parameters, the current operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid vehicle in the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning condition when stationary are determined, and the sound data of the target hybrid vehicle in the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning condition are collected.

[0045] In actual implementation, the embodiments of this application can determine the current operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid vehicle in the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning condition when it is stationary, based on the initial operating parameters, and collect the corresponding sound data.

[0046] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, determining the current operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid electric vehicle in the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning condition when the vehicle is stationary includes: detecting whether the output power in the current operating parameters is greater than a preset threshold; if the output power is detected to be greater than the preset threshold, generating a compensation value for the engine based on the operating parameters of the generator in the target hybrid electric vehicle, and determining the current operating parameters based on the compensation value and the output power.

[0047] In some embodiments, this application can detect whether the output power in the current operating parameters exceeds a certain threshold. If it does, a compensation value for the engine is generated based on the operating parameters of the generator in the target hybrid vehicle, thereby determining the current operating parameters. The certain threshold can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual conditions, and this application does not impose specific limitations.

[0048] For example, in the embodiments of this application, when the target hybrid vehicle is stationary, the limiting conditions for the external output of engine power and torque are removed, and the acceptance conditions of the battery pack are adjusted so that the engine can operate at different speeds and power when stationary.

[0049] This application embodiment can be understood as follows: to ensure that the engine operates under WOT, POT, and other conditions when the target hybrid vehicle is stationary, the vehicle control strategy needs to be appropriately modified to disable control strategies that restrict the engine's operation at different speeds and power levels. This involves modifying the battery capacity. Because the battery pack capacity of hybrid vehicles is relatively small, when the engine is driven by software to perform intake and exhaust tuning in a stationary state, the engine's external output power is limited by the battery pack, preventing the completion of intake and exhaust tuning. Therefore, this application embodiment can connect an external load circuit or external power supply in parallel to the hybrid system's external output circuit, optimizing parameters such as battery pack temperature and SOC (State of Charge). This allows the battery to accept the current output by the engine, and the current output by the hybrid system can be received by a load outside the vehicle, ensuring that the engine can continuously operate under intake and exhaust tuning conditions.

[0050] In this embodiment of the application, when the hybrid vehicle is stationary, the engine is driven by software to operate under different intake and exhaust tuning conditions to carry out intake and exhaust tuning, so as to achieve intake and exhaust tuning without the need for hub rotation or vehicle movement.

[0051] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, collecting sound data of the target hybrid vehicle under corresponding intake and exhaust tuning conditions includes: determining the monitoring point of the sound data based on the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning conditions; and acquiring the sound data based on the monitoring point.

[0052] It is understood that the embodiments of this application can determine the corresponding monitoring points according to different intake and exhaust sound tuning conditions, and then arrange the sensors required for intake and exhaust sound tuning. The monitoring points may include, but are not limited to, the intake and exhaust pipe openings, the near field of the muffler, the suspension vibration, the driver's inner ear in the vehicle, the rear seat in the vehicle, etc. This application does not make specific limitations.

[0053] For example, in the WOT (Workover) condition, monitoring point 1 can be set to the intake and exhaust pipe openings, and monitoring point 2 can be set to the driver's inner ear inside the vehicle, thereby acquiring the corresponding sound data; in the POT (Position Over Time) condition, monitoring point 1 can be set to the near field of the muffler, and monitoring point 2 can be set to the rear seat inside the vehicle, thereby acquiring the corresponding sound data; in the coasting condition, monitoring point 1 can be set to the suspension vibration, and monitoring point 2 can be set to the driver's inner ear inside the vehicle, thereby acquiring the corresponding sound data; in the idling condition, monitoring point 1 can be set to the intake and exhaust pipe openings, and monitoring point 2 can be set to the rear seat inside the vehicle, thereby acquiring the corresponding sound data.

[0054] In step S103, an adjustment value for the engine is generated based on the sound data, and the current operating parameters are adjusted according to the adjustment value until sound data that meets the preset sound conditions is obtained based on the adjusted operating parameters.

[0055] As one possible implementation, embodiments of this application can generate engine adjustment values ​​based on sound data, and adjust the corresponding operating parameters according to the adjustment values ​​until the sound data obtained based on the adjusted operating parameters meets certain sound conditions. These certain sound conditions can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual circumstances, and this application does not impose specific limitations.

[0056] For example, in the embodiments of this application, when the engine is in a static state and placed in a noise-absorbing environment, different operating condition data are used to determine the current operating parameters of the engine through a pre-built intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model, and the corresponding sound data is obtained. The sound data is analyzed to see if it meets certain sound conditions. If it does not meet the conditions, the corresponding adjustment value is generated until the certain sound conditions are met, thereby completing the intake and exhaust sound tuning work.

[0057] The working principle of the intake and exhaust tuning method for hybrid electric vehicles proposed in this application will be described below with reference to a specific embodiment.

[0058] in, Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the working principle of an intake and exhaust tuning method for a hybrid electric vehicle according to an embodiment of this application.

[0059] like Figure 2 As shown, the working principle consists of four parts: parameterization of the engine operating curve for intake and exhaust tuning, construction of intake and exhaust tuning parameter model, preparation of tuning equipment, and intake and exhaust tuning in a static state.

[0060] Among them, the parameterization of the engine operating curves for intake and exhaust tuning includes: Step S201: Select the hybrid vehicle to be tested.

[0061] Step S202: Obtain test condition data under different intake and exhaust tuning conditions.

[0062] In this application embodiment, the test condition data may include, but is not limited to, the intake and exhaust valve opening, engine speed and torque curves, intake and exhaust back pressure, sound pressure level and spectrum distribution, etc. in the WOT condition; the intake and exhaust valve opening, speed and torque under partial load, intake and exhaust flow rate and velocity, noise level and harmonic components, etc. in the POT condition; the intake and exhaust valve opening, engine speed decay rate, intake and exhaust pulse interval, residual noise level, etc. in the coasting condition; the intake and exhaust valve opening, idle speed stability, intake and exhaust manifold temperature and pressure, idle noise level and spectrum, etc. in the idling condition; and the intake and exhaust valve opening, engine net power corresponding speed, intake and exhaust system vibration and displacement, acoustic transmission path analysis, etc. in the stationary condition. This application does not impose specific limitations.

[0063] Step S203: Parameterize the engine operating curves for intake and exhaust tuning to obtain the corresponding engine operating parameters.

[0064] In the embodiments of this application, the operating parameters may include, but are not limited to, engine power, speed, speed rise rate, etc., and this application does not impose specific limitations.

[0065] The construction of the intake and exhaust tuning parameter model includes: Step S204: Determine the input and output data of the model.

[0066] In this embodiment, the intake and exhaust valve opening, noise ratio, and intake and exhaust back pressure change rate in the test operating condition data can be used as input data for the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model, and the engine power, speed, and speed increase rate in the operating condition parameters can be used as output data for the intake and exhaust sound tuning parameter model.

[0067] Step S205: Construct an intake and exhaust tuning parameter model to obtain the initial operating parameters of the engine.

[0068] In this embodiment, the initial operating parameters of the engine can be obtained by using a pre-built intake and exhaust tuning parameter model.

[0069] Preparation of mixing equipment includes: Step S206: Battery capacity modification.

[0070] In this embodiment, the acceptance of generator output current can be increased. However, accepting the generator's output current limits the engine's power output. Adding an external power source or battery pack allows the engine's output power to be unrestricted even when the vehicle is stationary. A schematic diagram is shown below. Figure 3 As shown.

[0071] Step S207: Battery capacity release.

[0072] In particular, the embodiments of this application can optimize parameters such as battery pack temperature and SOC (State of Charge).

[0073] Intake and exhaust tuning in a stationary state includes: Step S208: Set up monitoring points.

[0074] In this embodiment, the corresponding monitoring point can be determined according to different intake and exhaust tuning conditions.

[0075] Step S209: Collect sound data of the hybrid vehicle under the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning conditions.

[0076] In this application embodiment, sound data of corresponding monitoring points can be obtained under different intake and exhaust sound tuning conditions.

[0077] Step S210: Generate sound data that meets certain sound conditions.

[0078] In this embodiment of the application, when the sound data does not meet certain sound conditions, an adjustment value for the engine can be generated and adjusted until sound data that meets certain sound conditions is obtained.

[0079] The intake and exhaust tuning method for hybrid electric vehicles proposed in this application first obtains the initial operating parameters of the engine in the intake and exhaust tuning conditions of the target hybrid electric vehicle. This allows for the determination of the current operating parameters of the engine in the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning conditions when the target hybrid electric vehicle is stationary. Adjustment values ​​for the engine are then generated based on the collected sound data until sound data meeting certain sound conditions is obtained. Tuning can be performed on any muffler, automating the tuning process, reducing human error, improving tuning accuracy, lowering equipment and labor costs, and shortening the development cycle. It allows the engine to operate at different continuous operating points while the vehicle is stationary, providing conditions for intake and exhaust tuning in a stationary state. It is compatible with multiple types of hybrid vehicles and supports personalized acoustic customization. This solves the technical problems in related technologies, such as the high operating cost and complex testing process of rotary drum muffler test chambers; and the frequent occurrence of operating condition breaks in hybrid electric vehicles due to the limitation of engine power by the coordinated control of the battery and motor, leading to distortion of intake and exhaust tuning data and significantly increasing development costs and time.

[0080] Next, referring to the accompanying drawings, we describe the intake and exhaust tuning device for a hybrid electric vehicle according to an embodiment of this application.

[0085] The generation module 300 is used to generate adjustment values ​​for the engine based on the sound data, and adjust the current operating parameters according to the adjustment values ​​until sound data that meets the preset sound conditions is obtained based on the adjusted operating parameters.

[0086] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the first acquisition module 100 includes: a first acquisition unit and a generation unit.

[0102] It should be noted that the foregoing explanation of the intake and exhaust tuning method embodiment for hybrid electric vehicles also applies to the intake and exhaust tuning device for hybrid electric vehicles in this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0103] The intake and exhaust tuning device for hybrid electric vehicles proposed in this application can first acquire the initial operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid electric vehicle under intake and exhaust tuning conditions, thereby determining the current operating parameters of the engine of the target hybrid electric vehicle under the corresponding intake and exhaust tuning conditions when stationary. Based on the collected sound data, adjustment values ​​for the engine are generated until sound data meeting certain sound conditions is obtained. Tuning can be performed on any muffler, automating the tuning process, reducing human error, improving tuning accuracy, reducing equipment and labor costs, and shortening the R&D cycle. It allows the engine to operate at different continuous operating points while the vehicle is stationary, providing conditions for intake and exhaust tuning in a stationary state. It is compatible with multiple types of hybrid vehicles and supports personalized acoustic customization. This solves the technical problems in related technologies, such as the high operating cost and complex testing process of the rotary drum muffler test chamber; and the frequent occurrence of operating condition breaks in hybrid electric vehicles due to the limitation of engine power by the coordinated control of the battery and motor, leading to distortion of intake and exhaust tuning data and significantly increasing R&D costs and time.
