Description

The automobile engine air flow measuring device and the method for band self check
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of air-flow measurement device and method of vehicle, especially relate to a kind of automobile engine air flow measuring device and method of the band self check that can detect automatically and show.
Background technique
The thermal type gas quality flow measurement is to utilize heat transfer theory, and exchange heat concerns the technology of measuring flow between the outer heating unit of object that heats in fluid in promptly flowing and the heat source fluid or sounding pipe.
In the tradition calorimetric formula principle, usually adopt the hot fluid sensor to comprise heater and temperature transducer two-part, be symmetrically distributed a pair of or several in the heating wire upstream and downstream to platinum matter responsive to temperature silk, and, adopt microbridge formula hanging structure between heating wire and the responsive to temperature silk in order to improve the thermal insulation between the unit component.
Flowmeter is used for measuring machine motor-car intake air flow, and then be used for engine control system and determine that combustion condition, control are empty so than, starting and igniting etc., air inflow that engine control system then measures according to air mass flow and engine speed at that time come and predefined fuel feeding program relatively after, calculate required fuel delivery and relative discharge time, common this air mass flow in respect of one group not with the hot line of overcoat, be suspended on internal-combustion engine and suck among the bypass of air-flow process, to measure air mass flow.Though the hot line with overcoat does not have the high advantage of speed of response, defectiveness is because the back-fire in the air bypass makes them be damaged easily.
In order to overcome this defective, several schemes had been proposed, for example described in the Japanese patent publication number 16259/82, adopt a kind of hot wire air flowmeter with Venturi tube, Venturi tube is contained in the main airway that internal-combustion engine sucks the air-flow process, and bypass communicates with main airway, makes can shunt by the portion of air of air flue firmly, utilize Venturi tube main airway upper reaches part and, make the air-flow of process form one by-pass flow near Venturi tube pressure difference between the main airway at narrow position.In addition, also have a hot-wire airflow sensor that is contained in the bypass, monitor bypass gas flow,, determine to suck the flow of the whole air of internal combustion chamber according to the flow velocity that air flow sensor obtains.Employing has the hot wire air flowmeter of bypass that a problem is arranged: when tested air-flow was pulsed flow, the operating lag of hot line made to record the result less than the actual average air mass flow.
In order to address this problem, in the Japanese patent publication number 135916/83 scheme was proposed once, make the distance between the suction port and air outlet in the bypass, compare with measuring the distance that the main airway axial distance obtains, increase to some extent, with the error in the compensated measurement.In this hot wire air flowmeter, the air-flow that enters Air flow meter is divided into two strands at the suction port or the connecting port of bypass, has one air-flow to continue by main airway, and another burst air communication is crossed bypass, last these two strands of air-flows converge mutually in the air outlet of bypass or the mouth that confluxes, and flow out Air flow meter.But also there is shortcoming in this hot wire air flowmeter.Will be less than air mass flow when the tube wall of Air flow meter is heated through main airway through the air mass flow of bypass, thus make air temperature in the bypass be higher than air temperature in the main airway.Consequently, the air expansion in the bypass, bypass increases the resistance of air-flow, and the air mass flow that makes the process bypass at last is less than the air mass flow through main airway.Therefore, the hot wire air flowmeter of said structure has such defective: Air flow meter conduit wall cold and hot reduces the numerical precision of the air mass flow that Air flow meter records.
For overcoming the defective of above-mentioned original design, the air mass flow that patent of invention publication No.: CN 85 1 06537A propose is in respect of an air flow measurement pipe that is contained in the main airway, and Guan Youyi suction port of this air flow measurement and air outlet are as bypass; In addition, also have a hot line or an air flow sensor that is contained in the air flow measurement pipe, in fact this air flow sensor is contained in the core of main airway section, in order to detect the air velocity through bypass.Like this, in fact the ratio of air mass flow of passing through bypass and the air mass flow of passing through main airway remained unchanged,, eliminate the danger that measurement error takes place no matter whether sucking pipe is heated.
According to existing technology and use condition, the effective self check when also not realizing the sensor measurement precise decreasing.
Summary of the invention
Main purpose of the present invention is to overcome above-mentioned prior art can't be carried out effective self check before the sensor measurement air mass flow deficiency, and a kind of automobile engine air flow measuring device and method that detects the band self check of dead-center position by contrast is provided.
