Embodiment
Hereinafter, will by embodiment thaw test macro and the method for ability of the urea box in the test provided by the invention SCR system and urea pipe be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.Should be appreciated that following embodiment only is illustrative, and not restrictive.
Before introducing test macro of the present invention and method, at first briefly introduce tested SCR system.
The SCR system is divided into control module, urea dosage device and catalytic reaction unit three parts usually according to function.The control module of SCR system is called SCR aftertreatment electronic control unit (being called for short ECU), is mainly used to carry out the SCR control strategy, and it may integrate with engine electronic control unit.For example control the urea dosage device according to (these factors are indicated by sensor signal usually) such as NOx concentration in environment temperature, delivery temperature, urea level, urea temperature, urea pressure, the exhaust, in order to spraying urea liquid is mapped in the exhaust airstream according to demand at regular time and quantity.The urea dosage device is used for the control according to ECU, and quantitative urea liquid is sprayed in the gas outlet with vaporific form.Urea droplets issues unboiled water solution and pyrolytic reaction in the high-temp waste gas effect, generates needed reductive agent ammonia (NH3).Ammonia (NH3) optionally is reduced to nitrogen (N2) with the oxides of nitrogen in the exhaust (NOx) under the effect of catalyzer.The part that above-mentioned reaction takes place in gas outlet is called the catalytic reaction unit.
The urea dosage device mainly comprises urea box, urea pump, urea nozzle and connecting line (also claiming urea pipe).Under the low temperature, the urea liquid in urea box and the urea pipe can freeze, and this will cause the urea dosage device can't operate as normal, carries out catalytic reduction reaction thereby can't be as required the urea liquid of ormal weight be sprayed into gas outlet.Because the problem that urea liquid freezes to bring, the urea dosage device also comprises heating component usually, is used for heating to urea box and urea pipe under the cold snap.
During engine running, when producing exhaust, can produce a large amount of heats, generally utilize the liquid coolant of the heat of transmitter that urea box is heated at present.For this reason, the heat exchanger of urea box is connected with the liquid circulation pipeline of engine, and this connection can be controlled by solenoid valve.Judging urea at ECU by urea box temperature sensor and/or environment temperature sensor (for example need thaw, temperature is less than or equal to first setting value, as-7 ℃) time, ECU can indicate and open solenoid valve, make and the urea liquid in the urea box to be thawed can the flow through heat exchanger of urea box of the engine coolant of heat.And when ECU detects the urea temperature and reaches higher temperature (for example, temperature is greater than or equal to second setting value, as 0 ℃) by the urea box temperature sensor, can close solenoid valve, thereby the transmitter liquid coolant no longer flows into the heat exchanger of urea box.Like this, can be so that the liquid temperature in the urea box keeps within the specific limits.
For urea pipe, normally dispose electric heater it is heated.Starting or stoping usually of this electric heater also controlled by ECU.
Urea nozzle is arranged on the gas outlet usually.When transmitter moved, Tail Pipe Temperature was very high, so can there be frozen problem in urea nozzle.
According to foregoing description, the urea liquid ability of thawing in the SCR system relates generally to the heating efficiency of urea box heat exchanger and electrical heating urea pipe as can be seen.
In the conventional test mode, it is the ability of thawing of the urea liquid in transmitter stand test SCR system.When engine bench test, engine pedestal must wholely be arranged in the low-temperature test storehouse.When the ability of thawing of the urea box that uses and urea pipe in the vehicle of test different model, need correspondingly change different engine pedestals.Such testing cost is high.In addition, this test operation on engine pedestal is complicated, and the factor that influences its result is very many.For example the individual performance of transmitter, the fault when moving etc. all can influence test result.
In order to overcome the shortcoming of above-mentioned conventionally test, of the present invention proposed a kind of more flexibly, accurately and can effective cost-effective urea box well heater and method of testing and the device of electrical heating urea pipe.
Main basic thought of the present invention is: in test, need not dispose transmitter, and be to use temperature control heating unit simulated engine to provide the thermal medium of heat to test the ability of thawing of SCR system.Can realize the temperature for the heating medium of urea box heat exchanger, the accurate adjusting of flow according to testing scheme of the present invention, solve and in test process, used engine coolant to regulate the problem of difficulty as the heating medium of urea box well heater.And the temperature control heating unit can easily be simulated the medium of the heat that generates under the true ruuning situation of various types of engines, like this according to proving installation of the present invention can test different types the SCR system.Assist the SCR system auxiliary with non-air for air, and/or can use pilot system according to the present invention to test heating efficiency for the SCR system of the nozzle with mechanical valve or solenoid control.
Following mask body is elaborated to each embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 shows the block diagram of test macro 100 of the ability of thawing of the urea liquid for test SCR system according to an embodiment of the invention.As shown in the figure, test macro 100 comprises temperature control heating unit 12, checkout equipment 13, ECU 14 and data acquisition process equipment 15.
The equipment under test 20 of test macro 100 is the SCR system.As mentioned above, the SCR system generally include urea box, urea pump, urea nozzle and connecting line (also namely between urea box and the urea pump and the urea pipe between urea pump and the urea nozzle), and described urea box has no source heat exchanger, and described urea pipe has electric heater unit.The heat exchanger of urea box places in the urea box usually, preferably places the bottom of urea box.The electric heater unit of urea pipe is arranged around urea pipe usually.
Temperature control heating unit 12 is used for heating the thermal medium that provides to the heat exchanger of urea box, to provide heat by the thermal medium circulation to the urea liquid in the urea box.
The thermal medium of supplying with the heat exchanger of urea box can be the circulating cooling liquid of temperature control heating unit, and it can be water or other the thermal medium that can be used as the transmitter liquid coolant.The outlet of the circulating cooling liquid of temperature control heating unit can directly or by valve be connected with the entrance and exit of urea box heat exchanger respectively with entrance.So, flow into the heat exchanger of urea box through the thermal medium (liquid coolant of instant heating) of temperature control heating unit heating, carry out heat interchange with urea liquid in the urea box, the thermal medium that turns cold then flows out from the outlet of heat exchanger again, flows to the temperature control heating unit again.So, can provide heat to the urea liquid in the urea box by thermal medium circulation, in order to thaw.
Truth when the thermal behavior of temperature control heating unit should be moved with transmitter as much as possible is identical.For example, this can realize by the power of control temperature control heating unit, and the curve of the thermal power vs time when making the curve of thermal power vs time of temperature control heating unit move with transmitter is consistent.Perhaps, this also can be by control temperature control heating unit, makes temperature, pressure and/or the flow velocity of thermal medium circulation and consistent realization of temperature, pressure and/or flow velocity of the circulation of engine coolant.
Checkout equipment 13 comprises the temperature sensor for detection of the temperature of the urea liquid in the urea box.Whether the temperature of the detected urea liquid of temperature sensor can indicate the urea liquid in the urea box to thaw.When the temperature that detects urea liquid reaches first threshold, can judge that the urea box bottom has begun to thaw.When the temperature that detects urea liquid reaches second threshold value, can judge that the urea liquid in the urea box fully thaws.This first threshold can be temperature or a little higher than temperature that this begins to thaw that urea liquid begins to thaw.This second threshold value can be far above this temperature that begins to thaw.For different urea liquids and different urea boxes, described temperature threshold can be chosen different values.For the urea of normally used 32.5wt% urea liquid and 35 liters, for example this first threshold can be made as-5 ℃, and this second threshold value can be made as 0 ℃ or higher value.Alternatively, except judging the thawing of urea box according to the temperature of urea liquid, can also judge according to other standards.For example, can judge whether urea liquid thaws according to the duty of urea pump or the duty of nozzle.For example, when urea pump enters the build-up pressure state, can judge that then urea box thaws the bottom at least.And for example, when nozzle begins to spray urea, can judge that also urea box thaws the bottom at least.The duty of urea pump can be obtained from ECU.The duty of nozzle also can be obtained from ECU, for example can wait to indicate by the nozzle aperture of ECU control, and perhaps whether the tester can begin to spray by the visual inspection nozzle.Should be appreciated that, when judging by the specific duty of urea pump or nozzle whether the urea liquid of urea box thaws, need when test, guarantee the normal running conditions of the miscellaneous part except urea box of SCR system.
Checkout equipment 13 is made up of various sensors and sense line usually.Sensor is usually placed near detected object place or its.Preferably, checkout equipment 13 also comprises other sensors.For example, in a preferred embodiment, checkout equipment 13 also comprises the temperature and pressure transmitter for detection of the temperature and pressure in the thermal medium circulation.Alternatively, checkout equipment 13 also comprises the flowmeter for detection of the flow velocity of thermal medium circulation.Therefore, can control the temperature control heating unit so that the circulation basically identical of thermal medium circulation liquid coolant during with the transmitter operation according to the testing result of this temperature and pressure transmitter and/or flowmeter.By such control mode, can be so that the truth of the thermal behavior of temperature control heating unit when allowing near engine more makes test result more accurate.
SCR aftertreatment electronic control unit ECU 14 is used for the duty of the tested SCR of control system.ECU 14 serves as the control module of SCR system.ECU 14 can gather (these factors are indicated by sensor signal usually) such as NOx concentration in environment temperature, delivery temperature, urea level, urea temperature, urea pressure, the exhaust usually, and control the urea dosage device according to these factors, in order to spraying urea liquid is mapped in the exhaust airstream according to demand at regular time and quantity.In an embodiment according to the present invention, because purpose is in order to test the ability of thawing of SCR system, and not to carry out test at real transmitter stand, therefore can be easily by ECU being set to satisfy other SCR conditions of work except the test factor.Can get rid of other factors like this to the influence of test result.For example, when test urea box thawing time, can simply the every other condition except the urea temperature of urea box (for example NOx concentration in environment temperature, delivery temperature, urea level, urea pressure, the exhaust etc.) all be set to satisfy the SCR injection conditions.And the urea temperature of urea box will be obtained by the temperature sensor that is arranged in the urea box by ECU.Should be appreciated that preferably, when arranging more sensor in the test macro, ECU can be known various conditions (for example urea pressure, urea level etc.) from real sensor.
ECU can also control the heated condition of hot heating urea pipeline.Can easily by being set, ECU make the electrical heating urea pipe be in heated condition or end heated condition.
In addition, ECU can also control the operation of the miscellaneous part in this test macro.For example, when the circulation of the thermal medium of temperature control heating unit is when being connected with the heat exchanger of urea box by valve, whether the operation of all right operation valve of ECU heats urea box to control.
Because being connected in the connection of ECU and tested SCR system and various sensors and the actual vehicle is identical, at this no longer to well known to a person skilled in the art that technology is further elaborated.
Data acquisition process equipment 15 is coupled to checkout equipment 13, is used for determining thawing time according to testing result and the preassigned of checkout equipment.Alternatively, data acquisition process equipment 15 can also be coupled to ECU 14, is used for obtaining from ECU the duty of the parts of SCR system, the duty of urea pump for example, and the duty of nozzle, etc.Alternatively, checkout equipment 13 can pass through ECU and indirect coupling with data acquisition process equipment 15.Data acquisition process equipment 15 can be computing machine, and perhaps any other has the data acquisition process equipment of data-handling capacity.When the signal data that the data of handling when data acquisition process equipment 15 and ECU or checkout equipment provide was incompatible, data acquisition process equipment 15 can also comprise the function that signal is changed.
Described thawing time can comprise the thawing time of urea box thawing time and/or electrical heating urea pipe.According to embodiments of the invention, above-mentioned different thawing time can be measured independently.The urea box thawing time can be measured under the prerequisite that assurance electrical heating urea pipe fully heats.And the thawing time of electrical heating urea pipe can be measured under the prerequisite that urea box thaws fully.
Particularly, the urea box thawing time can for example comprise preliminary thawing time, i.e. the time of thawing bottom the urea box and needing.As mentioned above, this can be measured as from the temperature control heating unit and begin to be heated to the time that urea liquid temperature the urea box arrives above-mentioned first threshold.Perhaps, this for example can be measured as from the temperature control heating unit and begin to be heated to the time that urea pump or nozzle reach the particular job state.
Alternatively, the urea box thawing time can also comprise abundant thawing time, and this for example can be measured as from the temperature control heating unit and begin to be heated to the time that temperature the urea box reaches above-mentioned second threshold value.Perhaps this abundant thawing time can be measured as from the temperature control heating unit and begin to be heated to the time that urea box thaws fully.And thawing fully of urea box for example can be observed by naked eyes.
The thawing time of electrical heating urea pipe for example can be measured as, and under the prerequisite that urea box fully thaws, reaches time of particular job state from beginning to be heated to urea pump or nozzle.For example, when urea pump enters the build-up pressure state, perhaps nozzle enters spray regime, can judge that urea pipe thaws successfully.
Above-mentioned thawing time all can be used as (comprising electrical heating urea pipe thawing time, each urea box thawing time) indication of the ability of thawing of SCR system, perhaps can select its maximal value as the indication of the ability of thawing of SCR system.
Should be appreciated that test macro shown in Figure 1 only is for the example explanation, rather than restrictive.It can comprise various distortion.For example, preferably, system 100 comprises that also the thermal medium pump is used for providing the circulation of thermal medium.Preferably, system 100 can also comprise that solenoid valve is used for realizing according to the control of ECU the break-make of thermal medium circulation.Perhaps, preferably, system 100 can also comprise temperature and pressure transmitter, for detection of the temperature and pressure in the thermal medium cyclic process.
Test macro 100 can have some test patterns.For example, under first test pattern, can test the thawing time of urea box, comprise the initial thawing time of urea box and the abundant thawing time of urea box.And, the thawing time of test urea pipe in second test pattern.
Under any test pattern, in order to simulate cold snap, system under test (SUT) generally is placed in the low temperature environment, for example can be placed in the low temperature chamber.And other equipment, for example temperature control heating unit, SCR aftertreatment ECU and data acquisition process equipment etc. can place the normal temperature chamber.Can not need to adopt special low temperature resistant temperature control heating unit, ECU and data acquisition process equipment etc. like this, to save cost.
In first test pattern, tested SCR system is arranged at the low temperature environment time enough, makes urea box icing fully; By the ECU data are set, urea pump, urea nozzle and urea pipe are arranged under the normal operating conditions.For example, can make urea pump in running order by the control of ECU, satisfy other all injection conditions (for example NOx concentration in delivery temperature, urea level, urea pressure, the exhaust etc.) except the urea box temperature.And, can be in the heated condition time enough by ECU control electrical heating urea pipe in advance, so that urea pipe thaws.Under this test pattern, can get rid of other factors to measuring the influence of urea box thawing time.Then, measure beginning.Regulate temperature control heating unit 12 beginning heat hot media.Data acquisition process equipment will according to checkout equipment detect the temperature of urea liquid reach first threshold and judge that the urea box bottom thaws successfully, thereby determine the preliminary thawing time of urea box.Alternatively, the temperature of the urea liquid that data acquisition process equipment can also detect according to checkout equipment reaches the second threshold decision urea box and fully thaws, thereby determines the abundant thawing time of urea box.
In second test pattern, tested SCR system is arranged at the low temperature environment time enough, makes urea pipe freeze.Urea box thaws in advance.Preferably, can regulate the temperature control heating unit and keep heating to urea box, urea liquid does not freeze in the urea box to keep.For example can be so that the temperature of urea liquid be higher than thaw point, as 0 ℃ or more than.Can also urea pump, urea nozzle be arranged under the normal operating conditions by ECU is set.Then, measure beginning.Control by ECU makes the electric heater unit of urea pipe be in heated condition.Data acquisition process equipment enters particular job state (for example urea pump enters the build-up pressure state, and perhaps nozzle enters spray regime) according to urea pump or nozzle and judges that urea pipe thaws successfully, thereby determines the thawing time of urea pipe.
Fig. 2 shows the block diagram of test macro 200 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.As shown in the figure, similar with Fig. 1, the test macro 200 of Fig. 2 comprises temperature control heating unit 12, checkout equipment 13, SCR aftertreatment ECU 14 and data acquisition process equipment 15.At this, for these with system 100 in identical component no longer further specify.
Be that with the different of Fig. 1 Fig. 2 has specifically illustrated each parts of equipment under test.This tested SCR system comprises urea box 3, urea pump 5, urea nozzle 7, urea pipe 16 and urea container 6.Described urea box has no source heat exchanger (representing with the U-shaped of overstriking in the drawings), and described urea pipe has electric heater unit (representing by the coil on the pipeline 16).Urea container 6 is used for depositing the urea liquid of urea nozzle ejection.This urea container is not necessary, if when for example nozzle is installed to be facing to freeing port in the test cabinet etc., this urea container can be omitted.Urea pump 5, urea nozzle 6 and urea pipe 16 constitute the SCR spraying system, are used for the actual injection situation of simulation.One of urea box 3 is used for depositing aqueous solution of urea, and the direct tested object of the ability of thawing as test.With
Be also that with the different of Fig. 1 test macro 200 also comprises: flowmeter 8, solenoid valve 9, thermal medium pump 11, temperature and pressure transmitter 4 etc.Wherein flowmeter 8 is for detection of the flow in the thermal medium circulation, and it can be arranged in the one or more positions in the thermal medium circulation.Thermal medium pump 11 is used for providing the thermal medium of circulation.Solenoid valve 9 opens or closes under the control of ECU, to be used for the break-make of control water circulation.Should be appreciated that these parts only are exemplary, as top described with reference to figure 1, flowmeter, solenoid valve and temperature and pressure transmitter etc. are all not necessarily.
As shown in Figure 2, a part of parts of test macro are arranged at (frame of broken lines shown in mark among the figure 2 illustrates) in the low temperature environment, and another part parts are arranged at (frame of broken lines shown in mark among the figure 1 illustrates) under the normal temperature environment.Be set up with low temperature environment in parts mainly comprise tested SCR system, comprise urea box 3, pressure-temperature sensor 4, urea pump 5, urea container 6, urea nozzle 7 etc.Miscellaneous part then is under the normal temperature environment.Preferably, in test, low temperature environment and normal temperature environment need to isolate, to avoid influencing test result.
Similar with test macro 100, test macro 200 also has some test patterns, can test the heating efficiency of urea box and the heating efficiency of urea pipe independently.And because in the test macro 200, the thermal medium of temperature control heating unit cycles through solenoid valve and is connected with the heat exchanger of urea box.Therefore, can constantly open and close the test of carrying out repeatedly the course of defrosting of urea box repeatedly by the control solenoid valve.Its test process of brief description, and similarly partly no longer describe in detail with test macro 100.Under low temperature environment, make urea box icing fully, by the control of ECU, make urea pump 5 in running order, satisfy other all injection conditions except the urea temperature of urea box 3, and make thermal medium pump 11 (for example, water pump) in running order.Open solenoid valve 9 this moment, the urea liquid that the thermal medium after heating begins to circulate in the urea box heats.Gather signal constantly by temperature and pressure transmitter, then according to the thermal behavior of the signal controlling temperature control heating unit of gathering with simulated engine.When the temperature that detects urea liquid reaches first temperature, can judge that namely the urea box bottom thaws successfully, thereby determine the preliminary thawing time of urea box.Alternatively, when reaching specific duty, urea pump or nozzle can judge that when detecting the urea box bottom thaws successfully.Then, can continue heating, detect the time that urea box fully thaws.Then, ECU can control closed electromagnetic valve, makes no longer urea box to be heated.At low temperatures the some time, urea box may freeze again.The temperature of the urea box that detects according to checkout equipment 13, ECU can open solenoid valve again and urea box be heated allowing.Thereby the beginning test of thawing again.Therefore, can simulate under the actual low temperature environment, urea box adds thermoelectrical magnetic valve and constantly opens the process of thawing repeatedly of closing.
