Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of internal combustion engines, in particular to a positive pressure detection device and method and a vehicle comprising the device.
Background
In order to reduce the pollution of the automobile evaporative emissions to the atmospheric environment, the emission limits of the automobile are increasingly strict in China. Since fuels such as gasoline and methanol are volatile, a canister loaded with activated carbon powder is generally used to adsorb fuel vapor and prevent the volatilized fuel vapor from polluting the environment. When the engine runs, the adsorbed gas is desorbed from the activated carbon canister by the negative pressure of the engine and is sucked into the engine for combustion, thereby reducing the environmental pollution.
However, the carbon canister is used for adsorption, which has the following disadvantages: on one hand, with the popularization of hybrid electric vehicles and the application of technologies such as turbocharging and the like, the running time and negative pressure vacuum degree of an engine are reduced, and more activated carbon powder needs to be loaded in order to adsorb fuel vapor generated during filling, so that the concentration of the fuel vapor in air entering a combustion chamber is possibly higher; on the other hand, due to the requirement of environmental protection, the limit value of the automobile exhaust emission is required to be gradually tightened, so that the control requirement of the proportion of fuel and air entering the engine is more accurate. In addition, the desorption process can be completed by starting the engine, so that the fuel injection quantity of the engine during desorption cannot be accurately controlled. The three aspects all ensure that the desorption process of the activated carbon powder by the engine needs to be controlled more accurately, so that the problems of tail gas emission pollutant increase or engine fire and the like caused by deviation of an air-fuel ratio from an ideal ratio due to the fact that air mixed with fuel steam enters a combustion chamber to participate in combustion are solved.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a positive pressure detection device according to an embodiment of the invention. The invention provides a positive pressure detection device. The fuel vapor in the canister 200 is purged into the fuel tank 100 by the positive pressure generator 300, and the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200 is detected by the fuel vapor concentration detector 500, and when a predetermined concentration is reached, desorption is performed according to a preset desorption strategy. The invention can detect the concentration of the fuel vapor in the activated carbon powder without starting the desorption process of the engine 400, thereby accurately controlling the desorption process, improving the desorption efficiency and greatly reducing the pollutants discharged by the tail gas.
Referring to fig. 1, in an embodiment of the present invention, the positive pressure detection apparatus includes a fuel tank 100, a canister 200, a positive pressure generator 300, an engine 400, a fuel vapor concentration detector 500, a self-circulation pipe 600, and a controller 700.
The fuel tank 100 is used for storing fuel required for combustion in the engine 400, and is provided with a vent 101 and an outlet port 102. The fuel stored in the fuel tank 100 is a volatile liquid, which may be gasoline, methanol, etc., and the fuel vapor generated by the volatilization enters the canister 200 through the vent 101 to be adsorbed, thereby preventing the fuel vapor from volatilizing into the atmosphere to pollute the air.
The canister 200 is installed between the fuel tank 100 and the engine 400, and filled with highly adsorptive activated carbon particles for adsorbing fuel vapor volatilized in the fuel tank 100. The canister 200 is provided with an atmosphere communication port 201, an adsorption port 202, and a desorption port 203, wherein the adsorption port 202 is communicated with the exhaust port 101 via an adsorption pipe 204, and the atmosphere communication port 201 is communicated with the atmosphere via an atmosphere communication pipe 206.
The positive pressure generator 300 is attached to the atmosphere communication port 201. An air blowing port (not shown in the figure) of the positive pressure generator 300 communicates with the atmosphere communication port 201, and an air suction port (not shown in the figure) of the positive pressure generator 300 communicates with the atmosphere. The positive pressure generator 300 is installed on the side of the atmosphere connection pipe 206 near the atmosphere connection port 201, and generates a positive gas flow to purge the canister 200.
The engine 400 is provided with an oil inlet 401 and an air inlet 402, the oil inlet 401 is communicated with the oil outlet 102 through a fuel input pipeline 403, the air inlet 402 is communicated with an air inlet pipeline 408, and the desorption port 203 is communicated with the air inlet pipeline 408 through a desorption pipeline 405 and is communicated with the air inlet 402. Fuel in the fuel tank 100 is sucked into the engine 400 through the fuel inlet pipe 403.
The above-described fuel vapor concentration detector 500 is mounted on the desorption pipe 405, thereby facilitating detection of the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200. In one embodiment of the present invention, the fuel vapor concentration in the present invention means: the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 detects the ratio of carbon and hydrogen in the canister 200 to the fuel vapor flowing out, that is, the ratio of carbon and hydrogen in the canister 200 to the fuel vapor in the canister 200.
The self-circulation line 600 is in communication with the adsorption line 204 and the desorption line 405. One end of the self-circulation pipe 600 is communicated with the desorption pipe 405 between the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 and the air inlet pipe 408, and the other end of the self-circulation pipe 600 is communicated with the adsorption pipe 204. Thereby allowing communication of fuel vapors from the canister 200 to the fuel tank 100 and engine 400.
The controller 700 is electrically connected to the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 and the positive pressure generator 300, and controls the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 and the positive pressure generator 300 to be turned on or off according to desorption requirements.
In order to realize automatic Control of each element in the positive pressure detection device, in an embodiment of the present invention, the controller 700 is an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and includes a microprocessor, a memory, an input/output interface, an analog-to-digital converter, and a large-scale integrated circuit such as a shaping circuit and a driving circuit, and the work efficiency of the engine 400 is effectively improved by optimizing data such as ignition and oil injection of the engine 400.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the oil inlet 401 is opened on an oil rail 407 of the engine 400. Fuel is drawn from tank 100 through fuel inlet conduit 403 and stored in the interior cavity of fuel rail 407 to provide a fuel supply for combustion by engine 400. An oil quantity limiting valve (not shown in the figure) may be further installed on the oil rail 407, and is used for limiting the oil injection quantity of each cylinder, so that the oil injection quantity of each cylinder is kept consistent.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the adsorption pipe 204 is installed with a first throttle valve 205, the first throttle valve 205 is electrically connected to the controller 700, and the self-circulation pipe 600 is connected to the adsorption pipe 204 between the adsorption port 202 and the first throttle valve 205. The desorption pipe 405 is provided with a third throttle valve 406, the third throttle valve 406 is electrically connected with the controller 700, and the self-circulation pipe 600 is communicated with the desorption pipe 405 between the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 and the third throttle valve 406. When the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200 needs to be detected, the controller 700 opens the first throttle valve 205, the positive pressure generator 300, and the fuel vapor concentration detector 500, closes the third throttle valve 406, and keeps the second throttle valve 404 and the fourth throttle valve 409 unchanged, so that the fuel vapor in the canister 200 flows through the desorption pipe 405, the self-circulation pipe 600, and the adsorption pipe 204 in sequence and enters the fuel tank 100 under the purging of the positive pressure generator 300 by the forward gas flow, and at this time, the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 can be used to detect the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200. When the detected concentration value reaches the desorption level and desorption is required, the controller 700 closes the first throttle valve 205, the positive pressure generator 300 and the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 so that the fuel vapor in the canister 200 and the fuel tank 100 cannot be communicated with each other. And the third throttle valve 406 is opened, the second throttle valve 404 and the fourth throttle valve 409 are in an open state because the desorption is performed after the engine 400 is started. The fuel vapor stored in the canister 200 is introduced into the intake port 402 of the engine 400 through the third throttle valve 406 by negative pressure in the intake pipe 408. This effectively prevents the fuel vapor remaining in the fuel tank 100 from flowing into the canister 200, and improves the desorption efficiency. Meanwhile, the situation that the fuel tank 100 is deflated due to negative pressure can be effectively avoided. By closing the first throttle valve 205, fuel vapor within the fuel tank 100 may be prevented from entering the canister 200 through the adsorption line 204. In addition, in order to improve the situation that the engine 400 desorbs for multiple times, in an embodiment of the present invention, when the engine 400 does not start desorption, because the third throttle valve 406 is closed, when the desorption condition is not reached, the engine 400 does not need to desorb the canister 200 too often too early, and the desorption efficiency is improved. When the engine 400 starts desorption, the controller 700 opens the third throttle valve 406, and controls the opening degree of the third throttle valve 406 to be gradually adjusted to the maximum and then gradually adjusted to be closed according to a preset desorption strategy.
To ensure that the air/fuel ratio of engine 400 is controlled to an ideal state, in one embodiment of the present invention, a second throttle valve 404 is installed on fuel input pipe 403, and second throttle valve 404 is electrically connected to controller 700. When the engine 400 is started but not being desorbed, the controller 700 may keep the second throttle valve 404 open and fuel in the fuel tank 100 is drawn into the fuel rail 407 through the fuel inlet pipe 403. After desorption is started, according to a preset desorption strategy, when the opening degree of the third throttle valve 406 is controlled to be gradually adjusted to the maximum and then gradually adjusted to be reduced to be closed, the controller 700 correspondingly controls the second throttle valve 404 to gradually adjust the opening degree to the minimum and then gradually adjust the opening degree to be in a normal state, so that the engine 400 keeps stable fuel gas input.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the state where the engine 400 is not desorbed further includes a state where the engine 400 is not started, and the fuel tank 100 does not have to be supplied to the engine 400, and therefore, the controller 700 may control the second throttle valve 404 to be maintained in the closed state, the first throttle valve 205 to be maintained in the open state, and the third throttle valve 406 to be maintained in the closed state, so that the fuel gas in the fuel tank 100 may be introduced into the canister 200.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the intake duct 408 is provided with a fourth throttle valve 409, and the fourth throttle valve 409 is electrically connected to the controller 700. A fourth throttle valve 409 is installed on the intake pipe 408 on a side of the desorption pipe 405 away from the intake port 402, and the fourth throttle valve 409 is connected to the controller 700 by an electric wire. Atmospheric air is introduced into the engine 400 through the intake duct 408, and air supply is constantly provided for the combustion of gasoline or diesel in the engine 400.
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of a positive pressure detection method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and in an embodiment of the present invention, a positive pressure detection method is further provided, including the following steps:
s1, when the desorption of the engine 400 is not started, the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200 is detected at a set point.
And S2, if the detected fuel vapor concentration reaches the desorption standard, desorbing the carbon canister 200 according to a preset desorption strategy.
And S3, adjusting the initial fuel injection quantity of the engine 400 according to the detected concentration of the fuel vapor in the carbon canister 200 during desorption, and controlling the air-fuel ratio of the engine 400.
Referring to fig. 1 and 3, fig. 3 is a schematic flowchart illustrating the process of step S1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein step S1 includes the following steps:
and S11, when the engine 400 is not started to be desorbed, judging the current working condition of the engine 400, if the engine 400 is not started, keeping the second throttle valve 404 and the fourth throttle valve 409 in a closed state by the controller 700, otherwise, keeping the second throttle valve 404 and the fourth throttle valve 409 in an open state by the controller 700.
In this step, since the engine 400 is not started to desorb the purge gas includes two different situations, i.e., the engine 400 is not started and the engine 400 is started but the canister 200 is not purged, in an embodiment of the present invention, the current operating condition of the engine 400 is determined according to the on-off state of the engine 400. If the engine 400 is not started, fuel does not have to be drawn from the fuel tank 100 while the outside atmosphere does not enter the engine 400 via the intake duct 408, so the controller 700 maintains the second throttle valve 404 and the fourth throttle valve 409 in the closed state. If engine 400 has started but canister 200 has not been desorbed, controller 700 maintains the open state of second throttle valve 404 and fourth throttle valve 409. The engine 400 draws fuel from the fuel tank 100, and the outside air enters the engine 400 through the intake duct 408, mixes with the fuel, and is combusted in the engine 400.
S12, when the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200 is detected at the set point, the controller 700 closes the third throttle valve 406, opens the positive pressure generator 300, the fuel vapor concentration detector 500, and the first throttle valve 205, and generates a forward flow to purge the canister 200 of fuel vapor.
To facilitate detection of the current concentration of fuel vapor in the canister 200, in an embodiment of the present invention, the controller 700 opens the positive pressure generator 300 and the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 and closes the third throttle valve 406 while keeping the states of the second throttle valve 404 and the fourth throttle valve 409 unchanged, the positive pressure generator 300 generates a forward flow to purge the fuel vapor in the canister 200, and the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 detects the concentration contents of carbon and hydrogen in the fuel vapor flowing through in time and feeds back the current concentration to the controller 700 when the fuel vapor flows through the desorption pipe 405. While closing the first throttle valve 205 in order to avoid fuel vapor entering the intake conduit 408 and eventually entering the engine 400 causing premature desorption.
It should be noted that, in an embodiment of the present invention, the set time point refers to that the engine 400 detects the concentrations of carbon and hydrogen in the fuel vapor through the controller 700 according to its operating condition. When the engine 400 is in a preferred operating state, for example, it is not operating in a water-deficient state, information for detecting the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200 is sent to the controller 700, and the controller 700 opens the fuel vapor concentration detector 500, the positive pressure generator 300, the first throttle valve 205, and closes the third throttle valve 406 to detect the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200. After the detection is completed, the controller 700 controls the positive pressure generator 300 and the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 to be turned off, and performs the detection again at a proper timing.
S13, the fuel vapor in the canister 200 passes through the desorption line 405, the self-circulation line 600, and the adsorption line 204 in this order, and enters the fuel tank 100.
In an embodiment of the present invention, during the detection of the concentration of the fuel vapor, since the third throttle valve 406 is closed and the first throttle valve 205 is in the open state, under the positive flow purging, the fuel vapor in the canister 200 flows through the desorption line 405, the self-circulation line 600, and the adsorption line 204 in sequence, and is finally stored in the fuel tank 100, and after the detection process is finished, the fuel vapor enters the canister 200 again from the exhaust port 101 of the fuel tank 100.
Referring to fig. 1 and 4, fig. 4 is a schematic flowchart of step S2 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and step S2 includes the following steps:
and S21, judging whether the fuel vapor concentration in the carbon canister 200 reaches a preset desorption standard, if so, desorbing, and otherwise, keeping the original state.
In order to reduce the number of times that the engine 400 starts desorption and improve the operating efficiency, in an embodiment of the present invention, desorption is performed by determining whether the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200 has reached a predetermined desorption standard, and if the fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200 has reached the desorption standard. In an embodiment of the present invention, the desorption standard may be set to 40% by taking all the factors into consideration. When the fuel vapor concentration detector 500 detects that the carbon to hydrogen ratio in the canister 200 exceeds 40%, the canister 200 is desorbed.
If the fuel vapor concentration does not reach the preset desorption level, the controller 700 turns off the positive pressure generator 300 and the fuel vapor concentration detector 500, and the canister 200 returns to the adsorption state. Due to the diffusion movement of molecules, the fuel vapor stored in the fuel tank 100 is diffused into the carbon canister 200 through the adsorption pipeline 204, and after carbon and hydrogen in the fuel vapor are adsorbed by the activated carbon in the carbon canister 200, the adsorbed fuel vapor is discharged into the atmosphere through the atmosphere communicating pipe 206, so that the atmospheric pollution is effectively avoided.
S22, the controller 700 closes the first throttle valve 205, the positive pressure generator 300, and the fuel vapor concentration detector 500, and opens the third throttle valve 406, and fuel vapor in the canister 200 enters the engine 400.
In one embodiment of the present invention, desorption is initiated when the concentration of fuel vapor in the canister 200 reaches a desorption level. The controller 700 closes the first throttle valve 205 and the positive pressure generator 300 and opens the third throttle valve 406, and the second throttle valve 404 and the fourth throttle valve 409 are in an open state because desorption is performed after the engine 400 is operated. After the atmosphere flows into the air inlet pipe 408, the generated negative pressure drives the fuel vapor in the carbon canister 200 to enter the air inlet pipe 408 through the desorption pipe 405 and finally enter the engine 400, so as to provide a certain fuel supply for the combustion of the engine 400.
S23, the controller 700 regulates the degree of opening of the second throttle valve 404 and the third throttle valve 406 according to the preset desorption strategy and the current fuel vapor concentration in the canister 200.
Referring to fig. 1, 4 and 5, fig. 5 is a graph of a desorption strategy according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which the desorption strategy is a graph of a preset flow rate versus time according to a flow rate of fuel vapor flowing through the desorption pipe 405. In fig. 5, Q is the flow rate of fuel vapor through the desorption conduit 405, and t is the corresponding time, and the percentage is the concentration of fuel vapor in the canister 200. According to the current fuel vapor concentration, in combination with the desorption strategy, the controller 700 gradually opens the third throttle valve 406 to a maximum value, then gradually decreases the third throttle valve 406 until it is closed, and simultaneously correspondingly gradually decreases the second throttle valve 404 to close, and then gradually opens the second throttle valve 404 to an initial value. The fuel vapor flowing through the third throttle valve 406 is allowed to steadily rise to the maximum operating flow for a short period of time and slowly fall to a zero value. While fuel tank 100 is lowered to supply fuel to engine 400 as fuel vapor increases in intake port 402, so that the air-fuel ratio is maintained at a desired state. Therefore, the desorption with a large ratio can be rapidly completed, the running time of large flow is reduced, and the noise during desorption is reduced. It should be noted that, in order to make the image clear, the figure only schematically shows a plurality of curves of the relation between the flow and the time, and when in actual engineering application, as long as the concentration of the fuel vapor is greater than the preset desorption standard, the corresponding curves can be checked.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the initial fuel injection amount is adjusted according to the concentration of the fuel vapor, so that the ratio of air to fuel in the engine 400 is maintained in an ideal state. Preferably, in an embodiment of the present invention, the air-fuel ratio of the engine 400 is 14.7:1, which can achieve an optimal combustion state and reduce exhaust emissions.
In an embodiment of the present invention, there is further provided a vehicle, wherein any one of the positive pressure detection apparatuses described above is mounted on the vehicle, and the positive pressure detection method described above can be used for the positive pressure detection apparatus.
In summary, the present invention purges the fuel vapor in the canister through the positive pressure generator, uses the fuel vapor concentration detector to detect the fuel vapor concentration in the canister, and when the desorption standard is reached, the desorption is performed according to the desorption strategy. By accurately controlling the desorption process, the desorption efficiency of the activated carbon powder is improved, and the pollutants discharged by tail gas are reduced. Therefore, the invention effectively overcomes some practical problems in the prior art, thereby having high utilization value and use significance.
