Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for setting a defined oxygen loading with binary lambda control for carrying out the exhaust gas catalyst diagnosis.
  • the invention further relates to a control device that can be used to set a defined oxygen loading.
  • catalysts Exhaust catalysts for motor vehicles, hereinafter referred to simply as catalysts, are subject to aging phenomena. According to legislation, it is necessary to carry out a review of the function of catalytic converters in each driving cycle. The reliable function of catalysts is carried out by determining the oxygen storage capacity of the catalyst. The catalyst diagnosis runs over several lambda control periods, which coincide with catalyst diagnostic cycles. In order to have as few scatters as possible of individual diagnostic cycles, it is important to have a specific oxygen loading of the catalyst which can be repeated in each of the control cycles caused by the control.
  • this defined oxygen charge can be achieved with a defined forced excitation.
  • cyclical deviations from the stoichiometric lambda desired value are set, wherein half periods alternate with lean and rich exhaust gas.
  • the oxygen storage of the catalyst is charged by storing excess oxygen, while the rich exhaust gas half-period empties the oxygen storage of the catalyst by consuming oxygen to oxidize exhaust components.
  • the instantaneous oxygen input is positive when excess oxygen is stored in the catalyst; he is negative, if the missing oxygen to oxidation reactions in the rich exhaust gas is removed from the catalyst (if it has been previously stored).
  • the control is based on feedback from the lambda probe that the exhaust gases correspond to a rich or lean mixture.
  • a lambda probe signal which indicates a fuel mixture that is too rich
  • the fuel quantity is continuously emaciated, with the oxygen used for oxidation reactions being removed from the catalyst. The emptying takes place until the lambda probe signal jumps over and indicates too lean a fuel mixture, wherein the excess oxygen is stored in the catalyst. Then there is a short dwell time with which slight lambda shifts, i. different reaction times of the lambda probe, can be compensated.
  • the duration of the control cycle and the amplitude are essentially determined by the system transport delay and the reaction time of the lambda probe.
  • the system delay is strongly dependent on the operating point of the engine.
  • the oxygen loading of the catalyst is subject to changes, which makes it difficult to determine the catalyst efficiency.
  • newer catalysts for meeting future emission limits eg ULEV, LEV II
  • have a higher oxygen storage capacity so that the catalyst efficiency diagnosis requires a higher oxygen loading than is self-adjusting in a control cycle.
  • a method of adjusting a defined oxygen loading to carry out the catalyst diagnosis The control of the catalyst causes control cycles.
  • the catalyst diagnosis is carried out at a predetermined oxygen loading per control cycle.
  • a fuel mixture is fat or lean adjustable according to a lambda control factor.
  • a rich or lean exhaust gas of the fuel mixture is detected, wherein upon detection of a lean exhaust gas of the fuel mixture, the lambda control factor is incrementally increased, and upon detection of a rich exhaust gas of the fuel mixture, the lambda control factor is incrementally reduced.
  • the lambda control factor is changed by a p-step value of the lambda control factor.
  • the lambda control factor during a first loading time to a minimum control factor value and after a detected change from a lean exhaust gas to a rich exhaust gas of the fuel mixture, the lambda control factor during a second loading time set a maximum controller factor value.

  • the first and the second loading time are adjusted so that the oxygen loading in each control cycle reaches the specific oxygen loading, ie the predetermined oxygen input or oxygen discharge depending on the half-period of the control cycle.
  • the lambda control factor you can set the mixture rich or lean. If a rich exhaust gas is detected with the lambda probe, the lambda control factor is continuously reduced and thus the mixture is emaciated until the lambda probe detects a lean exhaust gas. This is followed by a residence time during which the lambda control factor is stopped in order to compensate for the difference in the probe switching times, or to realize a slight mixture shift, as in a standard lambda controller. Thereafter, an additional P-jump .DELTA.P also takes place in the leaning direction of the lambda control factor to the minimum control factor value, which results from the maximum difference to the lambda control factor mean value, so that the value of the predetermined oxygen charge is reached more quickly.
  • the P-jump is effected by the amount of incremental decreases and the additional P-jump ⁇ P in the direction of enrichment. Since a lean exhaust gas is detected at the lambda probe, the lambda control factor is now increased continuously and thus the fuel mixture is enriched until the lambda probe detects a rich exhaust gas. This is followed by a dwell time to compensate for the difference in the probe switching times, or mixture shift to realize. This is followed again by an additional P-jump in the direction of enrichment, which is limited by the maximum difference to the lambda factor mean, so that the oxygen discharge - corresponding to the oxygen input in the lean half period - realized faster.

Adjusting the lambda controller factor to the maximum controller factor value that depends on the predetermined oxygen load causes the predetermined determined oxygen load to be reached quickly after a change between rich and lean exhaust gas has been detected.

  • the lambda control factor is now increased or decreased step by step, thus emacifying or enriching the fuel mixture.

In this way, the catalyst efficiency diagnosis can be carried out even with an aged catalyst at a repeatable in each control cycle operating point-dependent oxygen loading of the catalyst.
  • the minimum or the maximum controller factor value is preferably determined by the difference between the lambda control factor and the lambda factor mean value and is predetermined by the oxygen storage rate of the catalytic converter.
  • the oxygen storage rate of the catalyst depends on the flow rate of the exhaust gases through the catalyst and the catalyst temperature and essentially describes what maximum amount of oxygen per unit time can diffuse into the catalyst and be bound.
