Description

[0001] The present disclosure claims the priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202410530982.9, filed with the Chinese Patent Office on April 29, 2024 and entitled "Method and apparatus for supervising working condition of engine, electronic device and storage medium", which is incorporated in its entirety herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of vehicle engines, and in particular to a method and apparatus for supervising a working condition of an engine, an electronic device and a storage medium.BACKGROUND

[0003] A combination of a high compression ratio and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) mostly serves for a current engine specific for a hybrid vehicle. With the high compression ratio, tolerance of the engine for the EGR is increased. Moreover, sensitivity of the engine to an EGR rate is also significantly increased. In other words, an optimal ignition angle varies greatly at different states of opening / closing the EGR under the same load. If accuracy deviation of an EGR model is large, knocking combustion is likely to actually occur, or incomplete combustion and even misfire appears.

[0004] For example, when the engine briefly passes through an EGR working region in a working condition transition stage, an EGR valve is briefly opened and closed and deviation of actual calculation of the EGR rate is large with short working time and strong transient nature of the working condition, resulting in knocks or unstable combustion, which affects driving experience.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0019] The present disclosure will be described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings and the particular examples. It should be noted that in the accompanying drawings or the description, identical figure numbers are used for similar or identical parts. Implementation modes not shown or described in the accompanying drawings are forms known to those of ordinary skill in the art in the pertinent technical field. In the description of the present disclosure, the terms "first", "second", etc. are merely used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0020] With reference to FIG. 1, the inventor finds through research that in a hybrid power mode, a power control unit (PCU) usually allocates corresponding required power to an engine according to a power demand of a driver, a current battery power capability, a maximum power capability of the engine and a power capability of an electric motor, determines a rotation speed and a load required to satisfy required power according to a principle of optimal energy consumption, and then controls the engine to gradually change from a rotation speed and a load of a current working condition to a final required rotation speed and load separately according to a slope to some extent. In a hybrid driving mode of a hybrid vehicle, especially after the engine is started due to the power demand, the PCU allocates extremely high power to the engine when the power demand of the driver is high and the battery power is limited. An initial working condition point of the engine is located in a lower left corner of an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) working region, and a final working condition point may be located outside the EGR working region. Alternatively, the power demand of the driver is suddenly reduced significantly, such that the initial working condition point of the engine is changed from an upper right corner outside an EGR working region, and a final working condition point may be located outside the EGR working region, as shown in FIG. 1. In such a process of change of the working condition, the engine briefly passes through an EGR working region, an EGR valve is briefly opened and closed and deviation of actual calculation of the EGR rate is large with short working time and strong transient nature of the working condition, resulting in knocks or unstable combustion, which affects driving experience.

[0021] To this regard, the inventor provides the following examples through long-term research, exploration and experimentation, so as to solve the above technical problem.Example 1

[0022] With reference to FIG. 2, the present disclosure provides a method for supervising a working condition of an engine. The method is applicable to a hybrid vehicle, so as to monitor and control the working condition of the engine of the hybrid vehicle. The method for supervising a working condition of an engine may include: step 110, a control information set corresponding to the engine is obtained; step 120, based on the control information set, whether the engine is in a working condition transition stage is detected to obtain a detection result; and step 130, an operating state of an EGR valve of the engine is controlled based on the detection result, where the EGR valve is prohibited from acting when the detection result indicates that the engine is in the working condition transition stage and passes through an EGR working region.

[0023] The steps of the method for supervising a working condition of an engine are described in detail below, as follows: in step 110, the control information set may include, but not limited to, a working state of the engine, an EGR enable flag, a required EGR rate of the engine, a working state of the EGR valve, an allocated required rotation speed of the engine, a slope of change of the required rotation speed, an allocated required load of the engine, and a slope of change of the required load.

[0024] It should be noted that the acquisition mode of various types of data in the control information set is a conventional mode, which is not described herein.

[0025] In step 120, the step that based on the control information set, whether the engine is in a working condition transition stage is detected to obtain a detection result may include: based on the slope of change of the required rotation speed and the slope of change of the required load, whether the engine is in the working condition transition stage is determined to obtain the detection result when the working state of the engine is an operating state, the EGR enable flag is on, and the working state of the EGR valve is a closed state.

[0026] For example, if the working state of the engine is an operating state, it indicates that the engine is in running. The EGR enable flag is on, i.e. on flag.

[0027] The step that based on the slope of change of the required rotation speed and the slope of change of the required load, whether the engine is in the working condition transition stage is determined to obtain the detection result includes: it is determined that the engine is in the working condition transition stage and passes through the EGR working region when the slope of change of the required rotation speed is greater than a threshold A and the slope of change of the required load is greater than a threshold B, where values of the threshold A and the threshold B are positive numbers; and alternatively, it is determined that the engine is in the working condition transition stage and passes through the EGR working region when the slope of change of the required rotation speed is less than a threshold -A and the slope of change of the required load is less than a threshold -B.

[0028] In the example, the threshold A and the threshold B may be calibrated. Specific values of the threshold A and the threshold B are usually slightly less than corresponding maximum rise rates provided by a PCU, and may be differently set according to different driving modes. When the condition "the slope of change of the required rotation speed is greater than the threshold A and the slope of change of the required load is greater than the threshold B" is satisfied, it means that the working condition of the engine enters the working condition transition stage of passing through the EGR working region by means of acceleration.

[0029] Alternatively, when the condition "the slope of change of the required rotation speed is less than the threshold -A and the slope of change of the required load is less than the threshold -B" is satisfied, it means that the working condition of the engine enters the working condition transition stage of passing through the EGR working region by means of deceleration.

[0030] In the example, a working condition transition stage flag position of the engine is true when the engine is in the operating mode transition phase.

[0031] In the example, step 130 that an operating state of an EGR valve of the engine is controlled based on the detection result may include: the EGR valve is controlled to be prohibited from acting when the detection result indicates that the engine is in the working condition transition stage and passes through the EGR working region.

[0032] Understandably, when the engine is in the working condition transition stage and passes through the EGR working region, the EGR valve is prohibited from acting. Thus, the situation that the working condition of the engine briefly passes through the EGR working region, such that the EGR valve is briefly opened and closed and deviation of actual calculation of an EGR rate is large, resulting in knocks or unstable combustion can be avoided. That is, the EGR valve is prohibited from acting, thereby improving stability of combustion of the vehicle engine advantageously, reducing energy consumption, and improving driving experience.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, step 120 may include: it is determined that the required rotation speed and the required load of the engine reach an end point of the working condition transition stage and a working condition transition stage flag of the engine is reset to false in a case that an absolute value of the slope of change of the required rotation speed is less than a threshold C, an absolute value of a step size of change of the required rotation speed is less than a threshold D, an absolute value of the slope of change of the required load is less than a threshold E, and an absolute value of a step size of change of the required load is less than a threshold F when the working state of the engine is an operating state, the EGR enable flag is on, and the working state of the EGR valve is a closed state.

[0034] In the example, the threshold A is greater than the threshold C, the threshold B is greater than the threshold E, and various thresholds may be flexibly set according to actual conditions. As an example, the threshold C may be set to 500 rpm / s or below; the threshold D may be set to 30 rpm or less; the threshold E may be set to 50 Nm / s or below; and the threshold F may be set to 5 Nm or less. The words "less" and "below" include this number.

[0035] In an optional embodiment, step 130 may include: step 131, prohibition on the EGR valve is removed when the working condition transition stage flag is false; and step 132, after the prohibition on the EGR valve is removed, the working state of the EGR valve is controlled by a conventional control strategy after delay of preset duration, and current passing identification is ended when the required EGR rate is greater than or equal to a threshold G; and step 133, after the prohibition on the EGR valve is removed, current passing identification is ended when the required EGR rate is less than a threshold G.

[0036] In the example, the required EGR rate of the engine may be calculated based on an actual rotation speed of the engine and an actual load of the engine. If the required EGR rate is less than the threshold G, it indicates that a current passing identification function is ended. If the required EGR rate is greater than or equal to the threshold G, a control function of the EGR valve is switched into a conventional EGR control function after preset duration T is delayed, and a current passing identification determination function is ended. The threshold G may be the same as a minimum required EGR rate in the conventional control strategy of the PCU, and the preset duration T delayed may be short. For example, the preset duration T delayed may be set to 1 second or less. In addition, the conventional control strategy is an existing control strategy, which is not described herein.

[0037] In the example, a process of a passing identification may be understood as executing steps 110 to 130 once. After a passing identification determination is completed, steps 110 to 130 may be repeated.

[0038] Based on the above design, the problems of knocks or unstable combustion caused by brief opening of the EGR valve during the transition period can be avoided by identifying that the transient working condition of the engine passes through the EGR working region and temporarily closing the EGR valve during a transient transition period passing through the EGR working region.Example 2
