Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of electric drive axle transmission efficiency determination, specifically relating to a method and related apparatus for determining the comprehensive transmission efficiency of an electric drive axle based on characteristic parameters and typical trips. Background Technology
[0002] As a core component of commercial vehicle transmission systems, the accurate assessment and optimization of the electric drive axle's transmission efficiency is crucial. The efficiency spectrum, serving as the core basis for system efficiency characteristic analysis and product iteration optimization design, directly determines the actual effectiveness of optimization solutions based on its accuracy and representativeness. An efficiency spectrum that truly reflects actual user scenarios has irreplaceable value in guiding product design and improving energy efficiency.
[0003] Currently, the mainstream methods for constructing efficiency spectra in the industry mainly rely on the collection and statistics of vehicle operation data. However, these traditional methods have a series of inherent defects in data acquisition, feature recognition, spectrum construction, and engineering applicability, resulting in a significant deviation between the final constructed efficiency spectrum and the actual user experience, making it difficult to effectively guide product improvement.
[0004] Traditional efficiency spectrum construction methods suffer from the following problems: First, they rely on full-scale data calculation, resulting in large data volumes, low processing efficiency, and significant interference from abnormal user data. Second, they fail to consider the diversity of actual user operating conditions, leading to insufficient representativeness of the efficiency spectrum. Third, the directly constructed efficiency spectrum is coarse-grained, lacking precise characterization of core operating conditions, making it difficult to meet the actual needs of in-depth analysis of transmission system efficiency characteristics and precise product optimization design. Moreover, most existing methods use simple statistics or empirical formulas, ignoring the subdivision of operating conditions and the screening of data representativeness, failing to accurately reflect real user characteristics. This results in a large deviation between the determined electric drive axle transmission efficiency and the actual operating efficiency, hindering the technological upgrading and energy efficiency improvement of commercial vehicle transmission systems. Summary of the Invention

This operation not only ensures that the constructed transmission efficiency spectrum of the electric drive axle possesses sufficient statistical representativeness and stability, avoiding random bias caused by insufficient sample size, but also provides clear guidance for cost and resource control in engineering practice. It eliminates the need for blindly collecting massive amounts of data, significantly reducing data collection and computation costs while maintaining accuracy, thereby promoting rapid adoption and engineering application in the commercial vehicle industry. Second, based on the full range of user driving data input according to the minimum sample size required for the transmission efficiency spectrum of the electric drive axle, a characteristic parameter library is established, and the characteristic parameters for each trip are calculated. By calculating the characteristic parameters for each trip, this invention avoids the subjective bias of "selecting typical examples based on experience." On the other hand, the representativeness of the distribution of characteristic parameters for the remaining trips other than the abnormal trips is evaluated to identify typical trips. This operation not only ensures that the comprehensive transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle determined later can reflect the true benchmark efficiency and avoid interference from accidental data, but also reduces the amount of invalid data, thereby improving the accuracy of determining the comprehensive transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle.

The sum of all items in the matrix of this frequency spectrum gives the total frequency N, and the weight under this TN level is obtained. The calculation formula is:
[0104] 7.3 Efficiency Spectrum Construction: The TN count results for all representative trips are statistically analyzed to generate a 128×128 efficiency spectrum statistical cloud map. Based on the efficiency spectrum statistical cloud map, an efficiency spectrum statistical histogram is plotted. The statistical histogram is shown below. Figure 7 As shown, the probability distribution of each operating point is calculated to obtain the speed and torque distribution operating points and the corresponding frequency proportions, which is the representative efficiency spectrum of all users.
[0105] Step 8: Determining the overall transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle 8.1 Finite Element Simulation Experiment Based on the TN classification corresponding to the 128×128 efficiency spectrum under different T-N values, the transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle under different TN classifications was obtained using finite element simulation software. .
[0106] 8.2 Bench Test Due to limitations in bench testing conditions, it is difficult to directly construct and test a complete mapping consisting of 128×128 fine-grained operating points. Therefore, the 128×128 matrix is divided into blocks and aggregated, and the value of each 8×8 block is calculated to obtain an 8×8 bench spectrum, as shown below. Figure 8 As shown.
[0107] The 128×128 matrix is divided into blocks and aggregated. The value of each 8×8 block is calculated to obtain an 8×8 pedestal spectrum. The specific process is as follows: For each 8×8 target block :
[0108] in, Each target block corresponds to 16×16 original grids.
[0109] Bench tests were conducted on the test bench to obtain the transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle under the TN classification. .
[0110] 8.3 Calculate the overall transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle The transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle simulated under TN classification. The representative efficiency spectrum of all users obtained above Alternatively, the overall transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle can be obtained by weighted summation of the corresponding positions of the electric drive axle transmission efficiency under the TN classification obtained from bench tests and bench spectra.

[0113] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: A. Improve the engineering applicability and scenario fit of the method by analyzing the minimum sample size based on convergence of pass characteristics.
[0114] Unlike traditional methods that use unordered segmentation based on fixed calendar cycles, such as monthly or weekly data, this invention pioneers a method using "trips" as the basic unit of analysis. This precisely aligns with the actual business logic of freight trucks completing a full transportation task from start to finish. This segmentation clearly and naturally expresses the load status, driving area, and driving style of each trip, ensuring a high degree of consistency between the work condition segmentation and real-world application scenarios. Furthermore, this invention introduces a stability coefficient K for feature convergence analysis, scientifically determining the minimum sample size (e.g., 800 trips) required to construct an effective efficiency spectrum. The advantages of this mechanism are twofold: firstly, it ensures that the constructed efficiency spectrum possesses sufficient statistical representativeness and stability, avoiding random bias caused by insufficient sample size; secondly, it provides clear guidance for cost and resource control in engineering practice, significantly reducing data collection and computation costs while maintaining accuracy, thereby promoting rapid adoption and engineering application in the commercial vehicle industry.
[0115] B. Improve the representativeness and accuracy of efficiency spectrum construction by combining feature identification (also called feature parameters) with typical passes.
[0116] Traditional methods process massive amounts of heterogeneous data in a mixed manner, leading to distorted efficiency spectra and low computational efficiency. This invention employs PCA and cluster analysis to perform fine-grained deconstruction of complex user operating conditions, achieving multi-dimensional and accurate identification of operational characteristics. Building upon this, a representative pass selection mechanism based on Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) distance is introduced to intelligently identify and remove outliers that deviate from the main characteristics, ensuring the purity and representativeness of the input data. This dual mechanism of feature identification and typical pass selection not only transforms the constructed efficiency spectrum from a traditional fuzzy average to a precise spectrum that clearly reflects the true efficiency characteristics of different user groups, but also reduces data processing volume by more than 60% and improves computational efficiency by over 70% by focusing on typical passes and using PCA dimensionality reduction.
[0117] C. The high-reliability, strongly correlated comprehensive transmission efficiency is determined by integrating the efficiency counting matrix with high-precision testing.
[0118] This invention abandons the traditional method of separating efficiency spectrum and load spectrum processing, and innovatively integrates and weights the TN counting matrix, which represents the user's actual driving habits, with the actual transmission efficiency, which reflects the physical characteristics of the transmission system. The TN counting matrix accurately captures the speed-torque distribution characteristics of the user in actual driving, while finite element simulation software tests or bench tests reveal the intrinsic efficiency characteristics of the transmission system at various operating points based on high-precision simulation. The integration of the two makes the final generated comprehensive transmission efficiency of the electric drive axle both behaviorally representative and physically realistic. It not only reflects what users frequently use, but also the actual response of the transmission system, thus faithfully reproducing the energy efficiency performance of actual roads and providing an unprecedented data foundation for precise efficiency optimization and reliability verification of the transmission system.
