Definitions
- the present invention relates to a control method and apparatus for fuel injection engines of the type used in vehicles such as automobiles and more particularly to a fuel injection control method so designed that the film mass deposited on the wall of the intake manifold is estimated and the desired fuel injection quantity is determined on the basis of the estimated film mass.
- the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve is partly deposited on the intake manifold wall or the fuel deposited as the film mass is vaporized and fed into each cylinder thus failing to wholly supply the injected fuel into the cylinder and in particular the quantity of fuel supplied to the engine deviates considerably from the fuel quantity required from moment during the engine acceleration or deceleration.
- EP-A-0 069 219 discloses a method and apparatus for controlling the fuel injection into an engine, wherein the desired combustion chamber fuel (DFC) is calculated on the basis of a basic fuel amount (BF), a temperature etc. correction coefficient (TCC) and an excess air correction coefficient (EXC) derived from an O2 sensor.
- DFC desired combustion chamber fuel
- BF basic fuel amount
- TCC temperature etc. correction coefficient
- EXC excess air correction coefficient
- An interrupt routine is initiated in synchronism with the crankshaft rotation at each fuel injection time to calculate an actual fuel command (AFC) for determining the time the injection valve is opened, by the following steps:
- the actual amount of fuel (SQF) squirted in through the fuel injection valve for the respective injection pulse is obtained by subtracting from the desired fuel amount (DFC) a fuel sucking-off amount (SOA), i.e. the amount of fuel entrained from fuel adhering to the inner manifold surfaces, and dividing the result by a figure (1-AWC) representing the proportion of the injected fuel that does not get adhered to the manifold wall.
- SOA fuel sucking-off amount
- the amount of fuel (WF) adhering to the manifold surface is renewed by adding to the previously calculated amount a figure (AWA) representing the amount that gets adhered to the wall, and subtracting therefrom the above figure (SOA) representing the sucking-off amount.
- AZA figure representing the amount that gets adhered to the wall
- SOA figure representing the sucking-off amount
- AFC actual valve opening duration
- the invention distinguishes from the prior art in that the amount of fuel to be injected is subjected to the correction derived from an 0 2 sensor and that this corrected value is utilized in updating the film mass quantity adhering to the manifold wall and in determining the fuel injection pulse width.
- the film mass correction control miss is thus also fed back.
- the prior art just introduces the correction value (EXC) in determining the desired amount of fuel (DFC) to be supplied to the engine.
- the method and apparatus of the present invention perform the various calculations on a time basis and use the most recent value to control the engine, thereby again achieving higher accuracy and providing a uniform load on the computer.
- FIG. 1A illustrates a schematic diagram of a fuel injection control apparatus.
- the mass of air flow Q a in the intake manifold of an engine is detected by a hot-wire air flow meter 2 and applied to a computer 1.
- the computer 1 receives the throttle position 8th from a throttle position sensor 3, the intake manifold pressure P from a manifold pressure sensor 4, the cooling water temperature T w from a water temperature sensor 5, the engine speed N from a crank angle sensor 6 and a binary signal indicative of a lean or rich mixture from an O2 sensor 7.
- the computer 1 directs the desired fuel injection quantity G f to an injector 8.
- the computer 1 calculates the rate of deposition of the fuel injection quantity on the intake manifold wall and the rate of vaporization of the film mass deposited on the intake manifold wall from the following equations (1) and (2), respectively, according to the inputted data. If the deposition rate is represented by X and the vaporization rate by 1/ T , the deposition rate X is simply given for example as a function of the throttle position 8th as follows
- the vaporization rate 1/ T is given as a function of the water temperature T w as follows
- the current film mass quantity is calculated from the film mass quantity obtained during the preceding cycle and the actually injected fuel quantity as follows where AT is the computing cycle period, M, is the film mass quantity, G, is the fuel injection quantity and G f ⁇ y is the actually injected fuel quantity in terms of the fuel quantity per unit time.
- the fuel injection quantity per unit time is determined in accordance with the deposition rate and the film mass quantity in the following manner.
- the fuel injection quantity of the engine must correspond to the intake air flow and therefore the desired value of the fuel quantity to be supplied to each cylinder is given as follows.
- Q a is the intake air flow
- (A/F) is the desired air-fuel ratio
- G fe * is the desired value of the quantity of fuel injected into the engine cylinder.
- Figure 2 shows the behavior within the intake manifold of the fuel quantity entering the engine cylinder.
- G f represents the injected fuel quantity
- X ⁇ G f represents the quantity of the fuel deposited on an intake manifold wall 21
- (1-X)G f represents the quantity of the fuel supplied to the cylinder without deposition.
- M/T represents the quantity of fuel supplied to the cylinder by the vaporization of the previously deposited fuel quantity (film mass quantity) on the intake manifold wall 21.
- the equation (7) is obtained as follows.
- the fuel quantity Q a /(A/F) to be supplied to the cylinder-to attain the desired air-fuel ratio is obtained in accordance with the intake air flow Q a and the fuel quantity 1/ T M f to be carried over to the cylinder is obtained in accordance with the vaporization rate 1/ T and the film mass quantity M f .
- the fuel quantity 1/ T M f is subtracted from the fuel quantity QJ(A/F) and the difference is divided by the non-deposition rate (1-X) of the injection fuel to be supplied to the cylinder without deposition thereby determining the desired fuel quantity per unit time.
- the value of G, obtained at the step 103 is the fuel injection quantity per unit time, it is then converted to a fuel injection pulse width per stroke of the engine at a step 104, as follows where N is the engine speed, k l is a coefficient determined by the characteristics of the injector, y is the feedback correction factor derived from the 0 2 sensor signal and T s is a dead fuel injection time.
- the fuel injection pulse width per stroke T is renewed at intervals of the computing cycle and therefore the actual fuel injection takes place for the duration of the fuel injection pulse width T l existing at the time of arrival of an interrupt signal generated for every stroke. Therefore, as the fuel injection quantity data required for the computer to calculate the quantity of film mass during the next cycle, the actual fuel injection pulse width in terms of the following quantity corresponding to the fuel quantity per unit time is fed back
- FIG. 3 illustrates a block diagram of the fuel injection control system in the computer 1 of Figure 1A.
- a fuel injection quantity per unit time G f is calculated by computing means 12 in accordance with the film mass estimated by computing means 13 for estimating the film mass quantity M f deposited on the intake manifold wall and the mass of air flow.
- Computing means 11 calculates the quantity of fuel injected per stroke as shown by equation: where k i is a coefficient which is used in the conversion to the fuel injection quantity per stroke and dependent on the injector characteristics and T s is a dead injection time.
- the computing means 13 computes the quantity of film mass in the intake manifold in accordance with equation (3):
- the right member M fn represents the film mass quantity for the preceding cycle and the left member M fn+1 is the newly estimated film mass quantity.
- 1/ T represents the rate of vaporization of the film mass
- X represents the rate of fuel deposition on the intake manifold wall to the injected fuel quantity (referred to as a deposition rate).
- Represented by AT is one cycle period of the computation by the blocks of Figure 3.
- the following in the right member represents the quantity of fuel delivered to the cylinder by the vaporization of the film mass during one cycle period
- the fuel injection quantity per unit time y ⁇ G f resulting from the integration of the feedback correction factor y represents the quantity of fuel injected per unit time which is renewed in response to the application of a stroke start signal from the crank angle sensor.
- the deposition rate X and the vaporization rate 1/ T are obtained by experiments in accordance with the throttle position ⁇ th, the water temperature T w , the manifold pressure P, the mass air flow Q a , etc.
- the deposition rate X is given as a function of the throttle position for purposes of simplicity, as in equation (1):
- the occurrence of lean spikes during the engine acceleration and the occurrence of rich spikes during the engine deceleration are eliminated as compared with the conventional method in which a basic fuel injection quantity is determined in accordance with the flow of intake air.
- This has the effect of improving the engine performance during the acceleration and ensuring effective removal of the harmful gases during the deceleration.
- the desired acceleration and deceleration corrections can be provided by matching only the deposition rate of the fuel injection and the vaporization rate of the film mass in accordance with the acceleration and deceleration air-fuel ratios and thus the invention has the effect of providing more efficient manufacturing steps.
- the quantity of the film mass deposited on the intake manifold wall is estimated by newly estimating the film mass quantity by using the actually injected fuel quantity, it is possible to estimate an accurate film mass quantity closer to the actual film mass quantity.
- the air-fuel ratio of the mixture supplied to the engine can be controlled at around the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio even during the engine acceleration and deceleration.
- the invention has the effect of improving the exhaust gas purification and the engine performance.
