Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of controlling the operating stability of combustion engines.
  • Spark ignition engines have, especially during their operation at partial load, a lower intake pressure at atmospheric pressure. This pressure below atmospheric pressure creates so-called pumping losses which lead to overconsumption of fuel, due to additional work imposed on the engine pistons during the intake phases.
  • valve crossing is the particular result of an exhaust delay and an advance on admission. It has the effect of facilitating the aspiration of fresh gases with the flue gases which facilitates the filling of the cylinder.
  • a control method in which the stability of a combustion engine is more precisely characterized, in particular during the transient operating phases (phases of variation of the speed of rotation of the engine).
  • This method makes it possible to adapt the operating parameters of the engine having an influence on its stability such as the ignition advance or the richness, but is particularly advantageous for adapting the crossover valves and thus optimize fuel consumption. transient engine.
  • the engine control set tends to optimize the crossing of the valves to reduce the fuel consumption of the engine while respecting the stability guideline.
  • the method according to the invention is particularly advantageous for regulating the crossing of the valves to reduce the engine consumption, especially in the operating phases of the engine at low and medium load.
  • the optimization of the valve crossover consists in applying the opening instructions of the intake and exhaust valve closing valves to minimize the fuel consumption, by maximizing the crossing period during which the intake and exhaust valves are simultaneously open, and positioning these openings and closures in the engine cycle as well as possible.
  • the method is applicable to the regulation of other parameters influencing the engine operating stability (ignition advance and richness), but this is not its preferential application, because there are other reliable and simpler methods for regulate: by construction of a stability index as known in the prior art for the stabilized phases, especially immediately after starting the engine, or by using specific probes during the transient phases.
  • a backup strategy is implemented in case of stability deviation greater than a predetermined threshold.
  • High engine instability can lead to engine failure.
  • a backup strategy helps to ensure the reliability of the engine.
  • Such a strategy consists in rapidly returning the engine to an operating point on which its stability is ensured, for example by applying a zero valve crossover, and conservative instructions for ignition advance and richness.
  • the process steps are repeated with each combustion in the engine.
  • a rapid regulation of the parameter in question is obtained, which makes it possible in particular to optimize this parameter by having at all times of the operation of the engine a stability index very close to the stability setpoint.
  • the method is implemented during phases of transient operation of the engine. It can also be used during stabilized operation phases. It is indeed in the transient operating phases that the process developed in the invention is of great interest. Indeed, taking into account a function of the derivative of the engine speed, reflecting the evolution of the engine speed, allows the creation of an index representative of the engine operating stability, including while its engine speed is changing, that is to say during its operation in transient phase.
  • Is is the stability index
  • d ⁇ measured d t is the measured time derivative of the engine speed at the time of calculation, which corresponds to a time when a combustion occurs in a cylinder of the engine
  • d ⁇ Theoretical d t is the estimated time derivative of the engine speed as a function of its estimated torque at the instant of calculation and of the inertia opposing the variation of its rotational speed
  • ⁇ measured is the engine speed measured at the instant of calculation
  • T PMH is the elapsed time at the computation time since previous combustion.
  • ⁇ PMH_n is the engine speed at the time of calculation
  • ⁇ PMH_n- 1 the speed at the moment of the preceding combustion.
  • the invention also relates to a control system of an internal combustion engine, implementing the method according to one of the preceding claims.
  • FIG. 1 is a general block diagram of the process according to the invention
  • the figure 2 represents an example of a control strategy implemented by the process according to the invention
  • the figure 3 represents a calculation module of the regulator of the figure 1
  • the figure 1 describes, using block diagrams, the implementation of the method according to the invention.
  • a supervisor 1 determines, for example according to the operating conditions of a motor 2, whether or not the method according to the invention is implemented.
  • the stability of the engine 2 is determined by a calculation function of a stability indicator 3, which gives as a result a stability indicator Is.
  • a calculator 4 supplies a stability setpoint Cs, for example by means of a map specific to the engine 2.
  • a comparator 5 calculates the difference between the two values Cs and Is, to output a signal Es, called deviation or stability error.
  • the stability difference Es is then supplied to a regulator 6, in the example a P.I.D type regulator. (derivative integral proportional), but this can be of any other type (LQ, Hinfini, etc.).
  • the regulator then takes into account the stability difference Es to calculate a valve crossing setpoint, that is to say in practice an opening setpoint of the intake OA and a setpoint of closing of the exhaust valves FE.
  • This setpoint is transmitted to the engine control member to be applied to the intake and exhaust phase shifters.
  • the stability indicator must allow to quickly and reliably detect the combustion quality even in transient regime.
  • the stability is characterized in the invention by an index, a function of the difference between the derivative of the engine speed as measured (or more precisely, as calculated using engine speed measurements) with the estimated derivative that the engine should have due to the engine torque at the time of calculation. This makes it possible to obtain a representative stability index even in the transient motor operating phases.
  • This calculation is preferably performed at each combustion of the engine.
  • the regime is measured also with each combustion.
  • This calculation can be averaged over several points in order to perform a low-pass filtering.
  • the figure 2 shows an example of the course of the engine control strategy, implemented by the method according to the invention.
  • the engine control device involving a method according to the invention will calculate a crossover instruction of the distribution, according to a first index of stability calculated.
  • the regulation thus achieved will increase the crossing of the valves as long as the engine remains stable (relative to the stability set), and this, according to a variant of the invention, to a certain predetermined limit.
  • a backup strategy is applied, which may for example consist of the adoption of a crossing instruction of the predefined distribution and ensuring the stability of a certain way, for example a zero crossing (request for rapid "uncrossing" of the engine), possibly accompanied by the adoption of instructions for steering the advance to the ignition and wealth
  • One or more of these functions are active according to the operating strategy determined by the supervisor 1.
  • the invention thus proposes a method making it possible to change the level of crossing of the distribution of an engine according to its stability, in order to adopt an adjustment allowing the maximum consumption gains obtained by the crossing.
  • it is possible to enslave the crossing at a desired level of stability so as to limit the maximum consumption of the engine.
  • the invention can also be applied to the regulation of other parameters affecting the stability of the engine, such as the wealth or the ignition advance, aiming to obtain a larger amount of energy available at exhaust and / or reduction of polluting emissions.
