Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for controlling an idling speed of an internal combustion engine in which an injection amount is controlled by a feedback method so as to keep a target engine speed when a vehicle runs under an idling condition after a driver takes his or her foot off an accelerator while the vehicle runs.
- An idling speed of an engine becomes stable at a rotating speed where a generated torque of the engine and a load torque caused by a friction in the engine itself balance. For example, if temperature is low, the idling speed is lowered since the friction in the engine itself is increased resulted from an increased viscosity of the engine lubricant oil. However, if the idling speed is lowered, the engine speed gets unstable, therefore there is a possibility that the driver get an uncomfortable feeling. On the other hand, if the idling speed is too high, the engine noise may be increased and the fuel economy may be lowered.
- idling speed control a method for controlling the injection amount to a value that is necessary to keep the target idling speed even if the load torque of the engine is changed. That is called as an idling speed control.
- an actual engine speed and a target engine speed obtained based on conditions such as a engine cooling water temperature and a load of a compressor for an air conditioner, and the injection amount is controlled by a PI type feedback method so that the target engine speed is achieved in accordance with a difference between those of the engine speeds.
- the present invention was accomplished in consideration of the above-mentioned circumstances, it is an abject of the present invention to provide a method for controlling an idling speed of an internal combustion engine, which is capable of approaching the actual engine speed to the target engine speed smoothly during the idling speed control executed when the vehicle runs under the idling condition after the driver takes foot off the accelerator while running the vehicle.
- the method for controlling the idling speed of the present invention is characterized by executing a injection correcting control for correcting the injection amount in order to suppress an excessive drop of the engine speed (decreasing speed) caused by a feedback control of the injection amount in accordance with a difference between an actual engine speed and a target engine speed.
- the injection correcting control may comprises a step of calculating a corrective injection amount based on a decreasing speed of the engine speed. It is possible to suppress a decreasing speed of the engine speed relative to a decreasing speed caused by injecting a usual injection amount.
- the injection correcting control may comprises a step of gradually increasing the corrective injection amount as the actual engine speed approaches to the target engine speed when the actual engine speed closely approaches to the target engine speed so that 100 % of the corrective injection amount affects the engine speed. It is possible to prevent the engine speed from an excessive quick deviation, and the driver is prevented from an uncomfortable shock feeling.
- the corrective injection amount may be different with respect to an engine load. It is possible to execute the injection correcting control appropriately by varying the corrective injection amount in accordance with the engine load, e.g. the corrective injection amount is increased as the gear ratio is increased.
- FIG. 1 is a control block diagram of the embodiment
- FIGS. 2 through 4 are flowcharts showing processing order of an ECU which executes an idling speed control.
- the idling speed control is applied to a diesel engine 1.
- the idling speed control executes a feedback control of an injection amount by driving an injection device 3 via an Electronic Control Unit 2 so as to coincide an actual engine speed Ne with a target engine speed Neisc when a vehicle runs under an idling condition after a driver takes foot off an accelerator pedal while running a vehicle. That is, during the driver taking foot off the accelerator, an operating degree of the accelerator is 0.
- the ECU 2 inputs the operating degree of the accelerator and other sensor signals such as the engine speed Ne.
- the ECU 2 has a block 2a for obtaining a proportional component of an injection amount in accordance with a difference (Neisc - Ne) between the engine speed Ne and the target engine speed Neisc.
- the ECU 2 has a block 2b for obtaining an integral component of the injection amount in accordance with the difference.
- the ECU 2 also has a block 2c for obtaining a differential component of the injection amount in accordance with the decreasing speed of the engine speed.
- the ECU 2 has a switch block 2d for controlling the differential component in accordance with conditions of the vehicle and the engine.
- the ECU 2 has adding blocks 2e and 2f for adding the components to obtain a conclusive corrective injection amount Qisc.
- the ECU 2 has a block 2g for calculating a base injection amount Qbase for maintaining the engine rotation in accordance with the operating degree of the accelerator and the engine speed, for calculating a conclusive injection amount Q by summing the base injection amount Qbase and the conclusive corrective injection amount Qisc, and for controlling the injection device 3 so as to inject and supply the conclusive injection amount Q to the engine 1.
- a processing order of the idling speed control with the ECU 2 is explained with reference to a base routine shown in FIG. 2 and subroutines shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 .
- functions of each step are explained step by step.
- a corrective amount Pi for P term, proportional component is calculated by the following expression (1).
- the corrective amount Pi is calculated as a base injection amount for an idling speed control.
- Pi Kp ⁇ Neisc - Ne
- a step 200 corrective amounts Ii and Di for I and D terms, integral and differential components, are calculated and read into the main routine.
- a conclusive corrective injection amount Qisc is calculated by summing the corrective amounts Pi, Ii and Di.
- a step 201 it is determined that whether an initial process is completed or not. In the initial process, for instance, it is determined that whether an engine-starting switch (an ignition key) is turned on or not. If the engine-starting switch is turned on (YES) the process proceeds to a step 202, if the engine-starting switch is already turned on (NO) the process proceeds to a step 203.
- an engine-starting switch an ignition key
- steps 203 through 210 conditions of the vehicle are determined into three categories as shown in FIG. 5 .
- a step 204 it is determined that whether the following EVENT A is satisfied or not.
- EVENT A Ne ⁇ Neisc + ⁇ N2, or the driver takes foot off the accelerator and Ne is not changed (is stable).
- ⁇ N2 is a threshold value to determine whether the correction of D term should be stopped or not a shown in FIG. 5 . If the EVENT A is satisfied (YES) the process proceeds to the step 205, if it is not satisfied (NO) the process proceeds to the step 208.
- a step 207 it is determined that whether the following EVENT B is satisfied or not.
- EVENT B Ne ⁇ Neisc + ⁇ N1.
- ⁇ N1 is a threshold value to determine whether the Di term correction should be executed or not as shown in FIG. 5 . If the EVENT B is satisfied (YES) the process proceeds to the step 208, if it is not satisfied (NO) the process proceeds to the step 210.
- a step 209 it is determined that whether the following EVENT C is satisfied or not.
- EVENT C Ne ⁇ Neisc + ⁇ N1. If the EVENT C is satisfied (YES) the process proceeds to the step 210, if the EVENT C is not satisfied (NO) the process proceeds to the step 205.
- the ⁇ N1 is a greater value than the ⁇ N2.
- a differential component is calculated. The step 212 is activated only when the engine speed is approaching to the target engine speed and the engine speed is within a predetermined range.
- the process proceeds to a step 213 after calculating the corrective amount Di for the D term by the following expression (2).
- Di Kd ⁇ dNe / dt
- Kd coefficient (affecting ratio coefficient)
- dNe/dt decreasing speed of the Ne.
- the coefficient Kd is obtained as the product of a coefficient Kd1 and Kd2 as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 .
- the coefficient Kd1 is obtained based on a difference between the Ne and the Neisc.
- the coefficient Kd1 is set to increase the corrective amount gradually so as to affect 100 % of the corrective amount for Di term when the engine speed Ne coincides with the target engine speed Neisc.
- the coefficient Fd2 is determined by parameters such as an engine load as shown in FIG.
- the load may be obtained by a signal from a transmission indicative of gear positions. For example, it is necessary to increase torque generated by the engine 1 to obtain an even torque (deceleration) on a driving wheel as a gear position (ratio) is increased. Therefore, the corrective injection amount is also increased.
- a step 213 the process proceeds to a step 220 after replacing the corrective amount Ii-1 calculated in the last time with the present corrective amount Ii.
- a step 216 the process proceeds to a step 217 after calculating the corrective amount Ii for the I term by the following expression (3).
- Ii Ii - 1 + Di
- a step 218 the process proceeds to the step 220 after calculating the corrective amount Ii by the following expression (4).
- Ii Ii - 1
- a step 210 the process proceeds to the step 220 after calculating the corrective amount Ii by the following expression (5).
- Ii Ii - 1 + f ⁇ Neisc - Ne
- a step 220 the corrective amounts Ii-1 and Di-1 calculated in the last time are replaced with the corrective amounts Ii and Di calculated in the present process.
- a corrective injection amount for correcting the injection amount is obtained on a vicinity of the target engine speed (Neisc + ⁇ N2 ⁇ Ne ⁇ Neisc + ⁇ N1). Therefore, it is possible to suppress a decreasing speed of the engine speed relative to a conventional idling speed control using a PI type feedback control. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the engine speed from an excessive drop (overshoot) with respect to the target engine speed. It is possible to approach the engine speed smoothly to the target engine speed as shown in FIG. 8 with a solid line.
- a corrective injection amount is calculated and added on a base injection amount when the engine speed is in a vicinity of the target engine speed (Neisc + ⁇ N2 ⁇ Ne ⁇ Neisc + ⁇ N1).
- the corrective injection amount is calculated based on a decreasing speed dNe/dt of the Ne.
- the corrective amount is gradually increased by an affecting ratio coefficient Kd1 so that 100 % of the corrective amount is fully effective when the engine speed Ne coincides with the target engine speed Neisc.
- Kd1 ratio coefficient
