Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Ermitteln eines Fehlers eines Abgassensors einer Brennkraftmaschine, insbesondere ein Verfahren zum Ermitteln eines Fehlers eines Kombinationsabgassensors zum selektiven Erfassen des Stickoxid- und Ammoniakanteils im Abgas der Brennkraftmaschine.The present invention relates to a method for determining a fault in an exhaust gas sensor of an internal combustion engine, in particular a method for determining a fault in a combination exhaust gas sensor for selectively detecting the nitrogen oxide and ammonia content in the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine.
Abgassensoren, wie z. B. Stickoxidsensoren, erlauben eine Messung der Konzentration von Komponenten im Abgas von Brennkraftmaschinen, beispielsweise Otto- oder Dieselmotoren. Das Abgas der Brennkraftmaschine weist als Komponenten u.a. Ammoniak (NH3) und Stickoxide (NOx) auf, wobei die Kenntnis der jeweiligen Konzentration für die Steuerung der Brennkraftmaschine vorteilhaft sein kann.Exhaust sensors, such as B. nitrogen oxide sensors, allow a measurement of the concentration of components in the exhaust gas of internal combustion engines, such as gasoline or diesel engines. The components of the exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine include Ammonia (NH3) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), knowledge of the respective concentration can be advantageous for controlling the internal combustion engine.

In Anbetracht des Standes der Technik ist es ist eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Verfahren zur (Eigen-)Diagnose eines in einem Abgasstrang einer Brennkraftmaschine angeordneten Abgassensors bereitzustellen, mit dem die Funktionstüchtigkeit und Messgenauigkeit des Abgassensors zuverlässig und effizient erfasst werden kann.In view of the prior art, it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for (self) diagnosis of an exhaust gas sensor arranged in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, with which the functionality and measuring accuracy of the exhaust gas sensor can be reliably and efficiently detected.
Diese Aufgabe wird mit einem Verfahren gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved with a method according to claim 1. Further advantageous refinements are given in the subclaims.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt der Gedanke zu Grunde, einen Fehler eines zum Messen der Konzentration von Stickoxid und Ammoniak ausgebildeten Abgassensors dadurch festzustellen, dass ein Verhältnis der jeweiligen Pumpströme bzw. Sauerstoffsignale des Abgassensors bei einem fehlerfreien Abgassensor im Wesentlichen einem vorbestimmten Verhältniswert entsprechen und bei einem fehlerbehafteten Abgassensor von diesem vorbestimmten Verhältniswert um mehr als einen vorbestimmten Schwellenwert abweichen. Insbesondere kann bei einer Abweichung vom vorbestimmten Verhältniswert qualitativ ausgesagt werden, dass die Pumpelektroden unterschiedlich gealtert sind bzw. zumindest eine der Pumpelektroden übermäßig gealtert ist. In einem solchen Fall kann dem Betreiber der Brennkraftmaschine eine Warnung ausgegeben werden und der Betrieb des Abgassensors kann in einen Notbetrieb wechseln, der zwar gegenüber dem normalen Messbetrieb ungenauer ist, es jedoch erlaubt, die Brennkraftmaschine zumindest bis zum Erreichen einer Wartungsstelle weiterhin zu betreiben.The present invention is based on the idea of determining an error in an exhaust gas sensor designed to measure the concentration of nitrogen oxide and ammonia in that a ratio of the respective pump currents or oxygen signals of the exhaust gas sensor essentially corresponds to a predetermined ratio in the case of an error-free exhaust gas sensor and in the case of a faulty one Exhaust gas sensor deviate from this predetermined ratio value by more than a predetermined threshold value. In particular, in the event of a deviation from the predetermined ratio value, it can be stated qualitatively that the pump electrodes have aged differently or that at least one of the pump electrodes has aged excessively. In such a case, a warning can be issued to the operator of the internal combustion engine and the operation of the exhaust gas sensor can switch to emergency operation, which is less precise than normal measurement operation, but allows the internal combustion engine to continue to operate at least until a maintenance point is reached.
Gemäß eines ersten Aspekts der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zum Ermitteln eines Fehlers eines einen Hauptkörper aufweisenden und in einem Abgasstrang einer Brennkraftmaschine angeordneten Abgassensors offenbart, der eine im Hauptkörper angeordnete und mit dem Abgas verbundene erste Pumpkavität, in der eine erste Pumpelektrode angeordnet ist, eine im Hauptkörper angeordnete und mit dem Abgas verbundene zweite Pumpkavität, in der eine zweite Pumpelektrode angeordnet ist, und eine im Hauptkörper angeordnete und mit der Umgebungsluft verbundene Referenzkavität aufweist, in der eine Referenzelektrode angeordnet ist. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren umfasst ein Steuern eines an der ersten Pumpelektrode angelegten ersten Pumpstroms derart, dass eine sich zwischen der ersten Pumpelektrode und der Referenzelektrode ausbildende erste Elektrodenspannung auf einem vorbestimmten ersten Spannungswert konstant gehalten wird, ein Steuern eines an der zweiten Pumpelektrode angelegten zweiten Pumpstroms derart, dass eine sich zwischen der zweiten Pumpelektrode und der Referenzelektrode ausbildende zweite Elektrodenspannung auf einem vorbestimmten zweiten Spannungswert konstant gehalten wird und ein ermitteln eines Fehlers des Abgassensors basierend auf einem Vergleich des ersten Pumpstroms mit dem zweiten Pumpstrom.According to a first aspect of the present invention, a method for determining a fault in an exhaust gas sensor, which has a main body and is arranged in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, is disclosed which has a first pump cavity arranged in the main body and connected to the exhaust gas, in which a first pump electrode is arranged A second pump cavity arranged in the main body and connected to the exhaust gas, in which a second pump electrode is arranged, and a reference cavity arranged in the main body and connected to the ambient air, in which a reference electrode is arranged. The method according to the invention comprises controlling a first pump current applied to the first pump electrode in such a way that a between the first pump electrode and the reference electrode forming first electrode voltage is kept constant at a predetermined first voltage value, controlling a second pump current applied to the second pump electrode in such a way that a second electrode voltage forming between the second pump electrode and the reference electrode is constant at a predetermined second voltage value is held and a determination of a fault of the exhaust gas sensor based on a comparison of the first pump current with the second pump current.
Insbesondere ist der Abgassensor dabei ein auf Stickoxid und Ammoniak empfindlicher Abgassensor und basiert auf dem amperometrischen Messprinzip. Der mittels des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens festgestellte Fehler des Abgassensors kann insbesondere eine unterschiedliche Alterung der Pumpelektroden anzeigen und somit für ein zu ungenaues Messen der Stickoxid- bzw. Ammoniakwerte des Abgases anzeigen. In einem solchen Fall ist es insbesondere möglich, dass die vom Abgassensor angezeigten Stickoxid und Ammoniakwerte nicht mehr der Realität entsprechen und folglich der gesamte Betrieb der Brennkraftmaschine nicht mehr effizient und optimal sein kann. Ein weiterer Fehler des Abgassensors kann beispielsweise auch ein mechanischer Defekt des Hauptkörpers, wie z. B. ein Haarriss im Hauptkörper, sein, der zu einer unkontrollierten Diffusion innerhalb des Abgassensors und im Hauptkörper führt.In particular, the exhaust gas sensor is an exhaust gas sensor that is sensitive to nitrogen oxide and ammonia and is based on the amperometric measuring principle. The fault of the exhaust gas sensor determined by means of the method according to the invention can in particular indicate different aging of the pump electrodes and thus indicate that the nitrogen oxide or ammonia values of the exhaust gas are measured too imprecisely. In such a case it is particularly possible that the nitrogen oxide and ammonia values displayed by the exhaust gas sensor no longer correspond to reality and consequently the entire operation of the internal combustion engine can no longer be efficient and optimal. Another fault of the exhaust gas sensor can, for example, also be a mechanical defect in the main body, e.g. B. a hairline crack in the main body, which leads to uncontrolled diffusion within the exhaust gas sensor and in the main body.
Vorzugsweise umfasst das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren außerdem ein Ermitteln eines Pumpstromverhältnisses zwischen dem ersten Pumpstrom und dem zweiten Pumpstrom, wobei ein Fehler des Abgassensors ermittelt wird, wenn das ermittelte Pumpstromverhältnis von einem vorbestimmten Pumpstromverhältniswert um mehr als einen Verhältnisschwellenwert abweicht.The method according to the invention preferably also includes determining a pump current ratio between the first pump current and the second pump current, an error in the exhaust gas sensor being determined if the determined pump current ratio deviates from a predetermined pump current ratio value by more than a ratio threshold value.
Eine alternative Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens umfasst ferner ein Ermitteln einer Pumpstromdifferenz zwischen dem ersten Pumpstrom und dem zweiten Pumpstrom, wobei ein Fehler des Abgassensors dann ermittelt wird, wenn die ermittelte Pumpstromdifferenz von einer vorbestimmten Pumpstromdifferenzwert um mehr als einen Differenzschwellenwert abweicht.An alternative embodiment of the method according to the invention further comprises determining a pump current difference between the first pump current and the second pump current, an error in the exhaust gas sensor being determined when the determined pump current difference deviates from a predetermined pump current difference value by more than a difference threshold value.
Vorzugsweise beträgt der vorbestimmte Verhältnisschwellenwert oder der vorbestimmte Differenzschwellenwert ungefähr 50%, vorzugsweise ungefähr 30%, noch bevorzugter ungefähr 15%. Das heißt, wenn das ermittelte Pumpstromverhältnis bzw. die ermittelte Pumpstromdifferenz um mehr als 10 % vom vorbestimmten Pumpstromverhältniswert bzw. Pumpstromdifferenzwert abweicht, wird ein Fehler des Abgassensors festgestellt.Preferably, the predetermined ratio threshold or the predetermined difference threshold is approximately 50%, preferably approximately 30%, more preferably approximately 15%. That is, if the determined pumping current ratio or the determined pumping current difference deviates by more than 10% from the predetermined pumping current ratio value or pumping current difference value, a fault in the exhaust gas sensor is determined.
Vorzugsweise umfasst das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ferner ein Ausgeben einer Warnung an den Betreiber der Brennkraftmaschine, wenn ein Fehler des Abgassensors ermittelt worden ist. Insbesondere kann diese Warnung für den Betreiber der Brennkraftmaschine ein Indiz dafür sein, den Abgassensor bei einer nächsten Wartung auszutauschen bzw. austauschen zu lassen und durch einen neuen Abgassensor zu ersetzen.The method according to the invention preferably further comprises outputting a warning to the operator of the internal combustion engine if a fault in the exhaust gas sensor has been determined. In particular, this warning can be an indication for the operator of the internal combustion engine that the exhaust gas sensor should be exchanged or replaced with a new exhaust gas sensor during the next maintenance.
Gemäß einem zweiten Aspekt der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zum Betreiben eines in einem Abgasstrang einer Brennkraftmaschine angeordneten Abgassensors offenbart. Das Verfahren gemäß dem zweiten Aspekt umfasst ein Ermitteln eines Fehlers des Abgassensors gemäß dem ersten Aspekt und, wenn ein Fehler des Abgassensors ermittelt worden ist, ein Steuern des ersten Pumpstroms und/oder zweiten Pumpstroms derart, dass die erste Elektrodenspannung und/oder zweite Elektrodenspannung auf einem vorbestimmten dritten Spannungswert und/oder vorbestimmten vierten Spannungswert konstant gehalten werden. Dabei weichen der dritte Spannungswert bzw. vierte Spannungswert vom ersten Spannungswert bzw. zweiten Spannungswert ab.According to a second aspect of the present invention, a method for operating an exhaust gas sensor arranged in an exhaust line of an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The method according to the second aspect comprises determining a fault in the exhaust gas sensor according to the first aspect and, if a fault in the exhaust gas sensor has been determined, controlling the first pump current and / or the second pump current in such a way that the first electrode voltage and / or the second electrode voltage a predetermined third voltage value and / or predetermined fourth voltage value are kept constant. The third voltage value or fourth voltage value deviate from the first voltage value or second voltage value.
Das Verfahren gemäß dem zweiten Aspekt der vorliegenden Erfindung beschreibt somit ein Notbetriebsverfahren des Abgassensors, wenn ein Fehler desselben gemäß dem ersten Aspekt festgestellt worden ist. Insbesondere kann mittels des Notbetriebsverfahren die Zeitspanne vom Feststellen des Fehlers bis zu einer Wartung der Brennkraftmaschine überbrückt werden und es können somit weiterhin Stickoxid- und Ammoniakwerte, jedoch nur als Summenwert, erfasst werden.The method according to the second aspect of the present invention thus describes an emergency operation method of the exhaust gas sensor when a fault of the same has been determined according to the first aspect. In particular, by means of the emergency operation method, the time span from the detection of the fault to maintenance of the internal combustion engine can be bridged and nitrogen oxide and ammonia values can thus continue to be recorded, but only as a total value.
Dabei kann es bevorzugt sein, wenn der dritte Spannungswert kleiner ist als der erste Spannungswert und/oder wenn der vierte Spannungswert kleiner ist als der zweite Spannungswert.It can be preferred here if the third voltage value is smaller than the first voltage value and / or if the fourth voltage value is smaller than the second voltage value.
Außerdem kann es bevorzugt sein, den Abgassensor bereits bei der Herstellung mit Betriebsdaten für sowohl den normalen Messbetrieb als auch für den Notbetrieb zu versehen.In addition, it can be preferred to provide the exhaust gas sensor with operating data for both normal measuring operation and emergency operation during manufacture.
