[0001] This invention belongs to the field of vehicle monitoring technology, specifically relating to a method and system for monitoring emissions from diesel vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] With increasing environmental awareness, effective monitoring of diesel vehicle emissions, especially during real-world driving, has become crucial. Currently, emissions monitoring for diesel vehicles primarily relies on laboratory bench testing or vehicle emission testing systems (PEMS). However, laboratory tests cannot accurately reflect the emission characteristics of vehicles under complex real-world road conditions; and existing PEMS equipment is typically expensive, bulky, and has limitations in its data processing methods.

[0003] Existing emission calculation methods often rely on simplified models or fixed conversion factors, failing to fully consider the dynamic changes in exhaust physicochemical properties under different engine operating conditions (such as normal combustion and coasting with fuel cut-off). This results in insufficient accuracy in calculating key parameters such as exhaust density and volumetric flow rate, thus affecting the accuracy of final pollutant mass emissions. Especially during vehicle idling or low-speed parking, where the vehicle speed is zero or close to zero, distance-based emission calculations become ineffective, easily leading to underestimation of emissions or missing data.

[0016] To address the issue of distance-based emission calculation failures when vehicles are idling or driving at low speeds, the system distinguishes between driving and parking states by vehicle speed. During the parking phase, emissions are accumulated using a time integration method, which avoids underestimation of emissions or data loss, and achieves complete capture of emission data under all operating conditions.

[0035] Next, step S3 includes: S31.

[0039] This invention proposes a convenient real-time emission monitoring device and method for diesel vehicles. This method achieves lightweight, high-resolution pollution monitoring and spatial source tracing through multi-source data fusion and algorithm innovation. Specifically, it includes the following two core steps: multi-parameter collaborative measurement and data preprocessing at the on-board emission test and analysis terminal, and mapping of distance emission factors and spatial pollution hotspots.

[0040] 1. Multi-parameter collaborative measurement and data preprocessing for vehicle-mounted emission testing and analysis terminal: The vehicle-mounted emissions analysis terminal consists of a processor and peripheral sensors. The processor uses an STM32F407ZGT6 as its core unit. The STM32F407ZGT6 is a high-performance ARM Cortex-M4 core microcontroller from STMicroelectronics, with a clock speed of 168 MHz. It integrates a hardware floating-point unit (FPU) and DSP instructions, supporting complex algorithms and real-time control. It is equipped with 1MB Flash, 192KB RAM, and rich peripherals, including USB OTG HS, Ethernet MAC, camera interface (DCMI), and high-speed ADC / DAC. It uses a 144-pin LQFP package and is suitable for high-performance embedded scenarios such as industrial automation, consumer electronics, and the Internet of Things. Peripheral processing circuits include AD acquisition circuits (such as...). Figure 2 As shown), CAN communication circuit (such as) Figure 3 As shown), power supply circuit (such as) Figure 4 As shown), the 485 communication circuit includes sensors including an FID sensor, a wide air-fuel ratio sensor, and a GNSS acquisition module and a GNSS antenna.

[0041] The on-board emission analysis terminal obtains engine speed, vehicle speed, pedal opening, NOx concentration, intake air flow, and whether fuel injection is in progress from the vehicle's OBD via CAN communication. It also acquires the air-fuel ratio and exhaust residual hydrocarbon concentration in real time via AD acquisition and obtains the real-time location from the GNSS module via 485 communication. The terminal performs comprehensive analysis on the above data and transmits the analysis results to the display terminal in real time to obtain a real-time emission heat map.

[0042] The following is the calculation process; the specific calculation flow is as follows: Figure 5 As shown: In road driving tests using on-board emission analysis terminals, the volumetric flow rate of exhaust gas is required to calculate mass emissions based on the concentration of exhaust gas components. The intake air mass flow rate (often called MAF) and NOx concentration are obtained through the OBD port, and the volumetric flow rate of exhaust gas is obtained using the following formula:

[0043]

[0044]

[0045]

[0046] In the formula, Air-fuel ratio; Intake mass flow rate (g / s) (MAF); The exhaust mass flow rate is (g / s). Fuel mass flow rate (g / s); The hydrogen / carbon ratio of the fuel; The calculated exhaust volume flow rate (m³ / s); The exhaust density is (g / m3).

[0047] Equation (2) is based on the law of conservation of mass. The calculation method proposed in this invention is also characterized by Equation (4), that is, the exhaust density is obtained as a function of the air-fuel ratio and the hydrogen / carbon ratio of the fuel. In commercially available testing systems, the exhaust density is independent of the engine's combustion state and air-fuel ratio and is set as a constant value. It has the same density as air; however, the exhaust density is greatly affected by the composition of the exhaust.

[0048] Electronically controlled diesel vehicles cut off fuel supply during deceleration. The exhaust volumetric flow rate during fuel cutoff is calculated using formulas (5) and (6). Let be the air density. All exhaust during fuel cut-off is assumed to be air, and the exhaust mass flow rate is equal to the intake mass flow rate.

[0049]

[0050]

[0051] Methods for determining fuel cut-off include: Figure 6 As shown.

[0052] The method for calculating exhaust gas density is as follows: Generally speaking, combustion is the process of burning fuel ( ) and air ( The oxidation reaction of ). At the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio ( When =1), carbon dioxide is emitted ( ),water vapor( ) and nitrogen ( When there is excessive air ( When >1), residual oxygen is discharged ( When air is insufficient ( When <1), carbon monoxide is emitted ( In addition to the components mentioned above, it also emits hydrogen gas. The composition of the exhaust gas varies with λ, and the concentration of each component can be expressed as the excess air ratio. Since the amount of residual hydrocarbons varies depending on the engine's combustion conditions, and because the amount of residual hydrocarbons emitted is small, their contribution to the airflow is also small.

[0053] Since this invention revolves around diesel engines, which are in a lean-burn state during normal operation, this invention describes the calculation of exhaust density under lean-burn conditions.

[0054]

[0055] Where a is Number of moles; b is The number of moles; c is The number of moles; d is The number of moles; e is The number of moles; f is The molar number of ; g is the molar number of residual hydrocarbons; p is the number of carbon atoms in each fuel molecule; q is the number of hydrogen atoms in each fuel molecule; r is the number of carbon atoms in the residual hydrocarbons; s is the number of hydrogen atoms in the residual hydrocarbons; The excess air ratio is calculated using the air-fuel ratio obtained from a wide-range air-fuel ratio sensor.

[0056] In lean combustion ( Under the condition of ≥1), the total amount of combustion gases ( ) can be expressed as formula (8).

[0057]

[0058] The concentrations of each gas component are as follows: ; ; ; ; ; in, The carbon-hydrogen ratio of fuel ( =q / p); r is the number of carbon atoms in the residual hydrocarbon (set to 1.85 typical for diesel vehicles under lean-burn conditions); Total exhaust hydrocarbon concentration (methane standard); This refers to the oxygen concentration in the air.

[0059] Finally, the exhaust density under lean-burn conditions can be expressed as formula (15): ; The above formula allows for real-time acquisition of exhaust gas density and CO2 concentration, providing data support for subsequent calculations.

[0060] 2. Mapping of distance emission factors and spatial pollution hotspots: The original purpose of using onboard emissions analysis terminals for road testing was to understand the location and amount of exhaust gas components emitted in the actual environment. The measurement results, obtained through the above calculations, are in the form of emissions per unit time (g / s). However, to meet the aforementioned objective, it is necessary to analyze emissions per unit distance (g / m). In other words, by combining emissions per unit distance with GPS location information, it is possible to determine the location of significant exhaust gas emissions.

[0061] This invention uses NOx concentration, Concentration and exhaust volume flow rate Calculate the mass emissions per unit time.

[0062] ; ; in, : / concentration; , Time-based / Mass emissions (g / s); , NOx / CO2 density (g / m3).

[0063] Next, the emission mass per unit distance is calculated by dividing the time-based emission mass by the vehicle speed (Equations 18 and 19). However, this formula diverges when the vehicle is stationary or the speed is close to zero, therefore the time-based emission mass needs to be integrated with the parking time and calculated as the emission at the parking point (Equations 20 and 21). In this invention, the vehicle speed is below 2... When it is defined as parking.

[0064] ; ; ; ; In the formula, , Distance-based / Mass emissions (g / m³); , When the vehicle is stopped / Mass emissions (g); : Time (sec) during vehicle startup; : The time (in seconds) during which the vehicle came to a stop; Vehicle speed (m / s).

[0065] The onboard emissions analysis terminal obtains the emissions factor per second ( After obtaining the data (g / s), it is linked to the GPS location to generate a spatiotemporal matrix: timestamp, longitude, latitude, and NOx emissions (g / s). Emissions (g / s) and vehicle speed (m / s) are accumulated in 10-meter segments and transmitted to a display terminal via CAN communication to generate a pollution intensity heat map, thus clearly exposing high-emission road sections. This achieves meter-level spatiotemporal analysis of pollutant emissions and successfully locates high-emission hotspots on actual roads.

[0066] This invention belongs to the field of vehicle-mounted emission real-time monitoring and road pollution analysis technology, specifically involving a lightweight multi-parameter emission measurement and spatial positioning analysis method based on sensor networks. Traditional portable emission measurement systems rely on heavy equipment, significantly altering vehicle load and affecting the accuracy of actual road emission data; while laboratory chassis dynamometer testing can accurately sample emissions, it cannot reflect the impact on aftertreatment device temperatures and other factors under real-world driving conditions. This research proposes a convenient real-time emission monitoring device and method for diesel vehicles. Through a self-developed vehicle-mounted emission testing and analysis terminal, it integrates exhaust residual hydrocarbon concentration obtained from FID sensors, air-fuel ratio obtained from wide-range air-fuel ratio sensors, OBD real-time data (engine speed, vehicle speed, accelerator pedal opening, NOx concentration, intake air flow, and whether fuel injection is in progress), and GPS spatial positioning to achieve real-time calculation of exhaust flow. The system enables real-time calculation of concentration inversion and spatial mapping of local pollution hotspots, achieving three major technological breakthroughs: lightweight equipment, strong adaptability to operating conditions, and accurate pollution source tracing.

The computer programs for each program segment in the emission monitoring system 200 may be stored in the memory of a computer device and executed by at least one processor to perform (see details). Figure 1 (Description) The function of monitoring emissions from diesel vehicles.

[0068] In this embodiment, the emission monitoring system 200 for diesel vehicles can be divided into multiple functional modules according to the functions it performs, such as... Figure 7As shown. The functional modules may include: a data acquisition module 210, an exhaust density calculation module 220, an exhaust volume flow rate calculation module 230, a mass emission calculation module 240, a unit distance mass emission calculation module 250, and an emission data aggregation module 260.
