Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating an internal combustion engine, an injection system for an internal combustion engine and an internal combustion engine with an injection system.
  • High-pressure oscillations can then occur in the high-pressure accumulator, whereby in particular the measured high pressure can drop sharply if air gets into the area of a high-pressure sensor. It is then possible that according to the EN 10 2015 207 961 A1 A continuous injection is detected using the method described, which in turn results in an alarm signal being set and, if necessary, the internal combustion engine being switched off, even though there is actually no continuous injection.
  • EN 10 2017 206416 B3 as well as WO 01/0183971 A1 disclose methods for detecting continuous injection.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of creating a method for operating an internal combustion engine, an injection system and an internal combustion engine, whereby the disadvantages mentioned are avoided.
  • a false detection i.e. a false-positive detection of a continuous injection
  • the risk of such a false-positive detection of a continuous injection is to be at least reduced.
  • the object is achieved in particular by creating a method for operating an internal combustion engine, wherein an internal combustion engine is operated which has an injection system with a high-pressure accumulator, wherein a high pressure in the injection system is monitored as a function of time. At a high-pressure-dependent start time, it is checked whether a continuous injection detection should be carried out. In order to check whether the continuous injection detection should be carried out, it is examined whether a high-pressure oscillation has taken place within an oscillation time interval before the start time. With the help of the method proposed here, it is thus possible to take the occurrence of high-pressure oscillations into account when determining whether a continuous injection is present. In particular, the method can be used to prevent the continuous injection detection from being carried out if a high-pressure oscillation is detected.
  • a high-pressure oscillation is understood here to mean a specific variation of the high pressure in the high-pressure accumulator of the injection system, wherein the high pressure has swept over a predetermined value range, in particular a predetermined pressure value band, at least once from both sides, i.e. from above and from below, preferably first from below and then from above, within the oscillation time interval.
  • a predetermined value range in particular a predetermined pressure value band
  • the high pressure to have swept over the predetermined pressure value band once within the oscillation time interval, first from a lower pressure value band limit value to at least an upper pressure value band limit value and then from the upper pressure value band limit value to the lower pressure value band limit value or another pressure limit value below or above the lower pressure value band limit value.
  • the oscillation time interval is in particular a predetermined time interval which is selected in a suitable manner in order to avoid, on the one hand, a false-positive detection of a continuous injection due to a high-pressure oscillation and, on the other hand, not to hinder the detection of an actual continuous injection.
  • the oscillation time interval is preferably from at least 0.5 s to at most 1.5 s, preferably one second.
  • the high-pressure-dependent start time is in particular a time at which, on the one hand, a decision is made as to whether continuous injection detection is to be carried out, and, on the other hand, if continuous injection detection is to be carried out, continuous injection detection starts.
  • the fact that the start time is high-pressure-dependent means, on the one hand, that the high pressure value at which the check as to whether continuous injection detection is to be carried out or continuous injection detection itself is started is parameterizable; on the other hand, the start time is high pressure-dependent in that this check is carried out when the high pressure reaches or falls below the parameterizable high pressure value.
  • the fact that the oscillation time interval lies before the start time means in particular that the start time is also an end time of the oscillation time interval. This is thus designed as a sliding time window that extends from the start time into the past.
  • an internal combustion engine is preferably operated which has a so-called common rail injection system.
  • a high-pressure accumulator for fuel is provided which is fluidly connected to at least one, preferably to a plurality of injectors for injecting the fuel.
  • the high-pressure accumulator acts as a buffer volume in order to buffer and dampen pressure fluctuations caused by individual injection events.
  • the fuel volume in the high-pressure accumulator is large compared to a fuel volume injected within a single injection event.
  • the high-pressure accumulator advantageously causes a decoupling of the injection events which are assigned to different injectors, so that an identical high pressure can preferably be assumed for each individual injection event.
  • the at least one injector prefferably has an individual accumulator.
  • several injectors each have individual storage units separately assigned to the injectors. These serve as additional buffer volumes and can very efficiently bring about an additional separation of the individual injection events from one another.
  • the high pressure in the injection system is monitored over time means in particular that it is measured over time.
  • the high pressure present in the high-pressure accumulator is measured for this purpose - in particular by means of a pressure sensor arranged on the high-pressure accumulator.
  • the high-pressure accumulator proves to be a particularly suitable location for measuring the high pressure, in particular because short-term pressure fluctuations can only be detected to a small extent here due to the dampening effect of the high-pressure accumulator on the individual injection events.
  • the measured raw values are not used as the high pressure, but that the measured high pressure values are filtered, with the filtered high pressure values being used as the basis for the method.
  • a PT 1 filter is particularly preferably used for this purpose. This filtering has the advantage that short-term high pressure fluctuations can be filtered out, which could otherwise interfere with the reliable detection of a high pressure oscillation or a pressure drop in the high pressure that actually indicates a continuous injection. It is possible that the recorded high pressure values are also filtered during operation of the internal combustion engine for pressure control of the high pressure.
  • a first filter is preferably provided for filtering for the purpose of pressure control, which is preferably designed as a PT 1 filter, with a second filter being provided for the purpose of detecting a high pressure oscillation or continuous injection, which is preferably designed as a PT 1 filter.
  • the second filter is preferably designed as a faster filter, i.e. it reacts more dynamically to the measured high pressure values, in particular having a smaller time constant than the first high pressure filter, which is used for pressure control of the high pressure.
  • the output pressure values of the filter used to detect a high-pressure oscillation or continuous injection are also referred to here and below as dynamic high pressure or dynamic rail pressure.
  • dynamic indicates in particular that they are filtered with a comparatively fast time constant, so that very short-term fluctuations are averaged out, but at the same time a comparatively dynamic detection of the high pressure actually present at the moment is still possible.
  • the continuous injection detection is carried out if no high-pressure oscillation is detected within the oscillation time interval. This ensures that a check for a continuous injection is carried out if a continuous injection is possibly present due to the time-dependent behavior of the high pressure and at the same time a high-pressure oscillation is excluded as the cause of the time-dependent behavior of the high pressure.
  • the continuous injection detection is not carried out if a high-pressure oscillation is detected within the oscillation time interval.
  • This advantageously means that the check for a continuous injection is already omitted if a high-pressure oscillation is determined to be the cause of the time-dependent behavior of the high pressure. This not only prevents an incorrect setting of an alarm signal or even a shutdown of the internal combustion engine due to a false-positive detection of a continuous injection, but also saves computing time and computing power by also preventing the check for a continuous injection.
  • the oscillation limit value can in particular be the previously mentioned lower pressure value band limit value; the high-pressure setpoint value is preferably the previously mentioned upper pressure value band limit value; the oscillation end value is preferably the previously mentioned further pressure limit value, but can also be identical to the lower pressure value band limit value.
  • the high pressure setpoint is preferably a value that is used as a setpoint for pressure control of the high pressure in the high pressure accumulator.
  • Both the oscillation limit value and the oscillation end value are in particular smaller than the high pressure setpoint. According to one embodiment of the method, it is possible for the oscillation end value to be equal to the oscillation limit value. According to another embodiment of the method, it is possible for the oscillation end value to be different from the oscillation limit value, in particular smaller or larger than the latter.
  • the oscillation time interval is in particular a maximum period duration - even if it may relate to just one oscillation pass or a few oscillation passes - whereby only those high pressure fluctuations are recognized as high pressure oscillations whose period duration is shorter than the maximum period duration defined by the oscillation time interval.
  • the oscillation time interval thus sets a minimum frequency for the high pressure fluctuation that can be recognized as a high pressure oscillation.
  • the continuous injection detection is blocked until the high pressure again reaches or exceeds the high pressure setpoint. This ensures that the injection system only returns to a defined state after a high pressure oscillation has occurred, in particular that any air present is pumped out of the high pressure accumulator before a continuous injection is checked. This also contributes advantageously to preventing false detections of continuous injections.
  • the start time is selected as the time at which the high pressure falls below the high pressure setpoint by a predetermined starting differential pressure amount.
  • the start time is defined in a safe, sensible and parameterizable manner.
  • the high pressure is evaluated as a function of time, whereby the decision as to whether the continuous injection detection is carried out is then made and, if necessary, the continuous injection test begins when the high pressure falls below the high pressure setpoint by the predetermined starting differential pressure amount.
  • the predetermined starting differential pressure amount can easily be selected in a sensible manner so that the test is only started when there is a real risk of a pressure drop that goes beyond normal fluctuations around the high pressure setpoint.
  • the oscillation limit value is smaller than a starting high pressure, which is defined as the difference between the high pressure setpoint and the starting differential pressure amount.
  • the starting high pressure is therefore the high pressure value that defines the starting time when the high pressure detected over time reaches or falls below the starting high pressure from higher pressure values.
  • the oscillation limit value is greater than the starting high pressure.
  • the oscillation limit value is preferably parameterizable and can be selected to be greater or smaller than the starting high pressure, in particular depending on a specific application of the method, in particular for a specific internal combustion engine. It is of course also possible for the oscillation limit value to be selected to be equal to the starting high pressure.
  • the oscillation end value is selected to be equal to the starting high pressure.
  • the oscillation end value is also preferably parameterizable, with a particularly simple embodiment of the method being present if it is selected to be identical to the starting high pressure, or if the starting high pressure is used as the oscillation end value.
  • the oscillation limit value, the oscillation end value and/or the start high pressure are defined as differential amounts based on the high pressure setpoint. This enables particularly simple parameterization of the method. In particular, this ensures that when the high pressure setpoint varies, fixed differential amounts in relation to the high pressure setpoint remain for the remaining values.
  • the oscillation limit value is therefore preferably defined as the oscillation differential pressure amount - in relation to the high pressure setpoint - and the oscillation end value is preferably defined as the final oscillation differential pressure amount - also in relation to the high pressure setpoint. These are therefore in particular pressure values at a predetermined distance from the current high pressure setpoint.
  • the respective pressure value is preferably always deducted from the high pressure setpoint, so a corresponding differential pressure amount is positive if the corresponding pressure value is smaller than the high pressure setpoint. Accordingly, a control deviation for the pressure control is preferably calculated in such a way that the instantaneous high pressure is subtracted from the high pressure setpoint, so that the control deviation is positive if the instantaneous pressure value is smaller than the high pressure setpoint.
  • the continuous injection detection is preferably carried out as described in the published application EN 10 2015 207 961 A1 In this respect, particular reference is made to this document.
  • a continuous injection it is preferably checked whether the high pressure has fallen by a predetermined continuous injection differential pressure amount within a predetermined continuous injection time interval.
  • a further check is - in particular a continued check - whether a shut-off valve connecting the high pressure accumulator to a fuel reservoir has responded.
  • a continuous injection is detected if no shut-off valve has responded in a predetermined test time interval before the high pressure drops, and if the high pressure has fallen by the predetermined continuous injection differential pressure amount within the predetermined continuous injection time interval.
  • a continuous injection is only detected if both conditions are met at the same time, namely that, on the one hand, the high pressure has fallen by the predetermined continuous injection differential pressure amount within the predetermined continuous injection time interval, and, on the other hand, no shut-off valve has responded in the predetermined test time interval before the high pressure fell. It can therefore be concluded with great certainty that a continuous injection is the cause of the drop in the high pressure, and the continuous injection can be detected and diagnosed by the drop in the high pressure. It is then easily possible to initiate measures to protect the internal combustion engine from damage after the continuous injection has been detected.
  • test time interval used is preferably one that is at least one second and at most three seconds, particularly preferably two seconds. This time has proven to be particularly suitable for ruling out the possibility that the recorded pressure drop is caused by the response of a shut-off valve.
  • test time interval is before the high pressure drops means in particular that the test time interval is before the start time, whereby the start time is preferably also an end time of the test time interval. This is thus designed as a sliding time window that extends from the start time into the past.
  • shut-off valve connecting the high-pressure accumulator to a fuel reservoir means in particular that this is monitored continuously, in particular continuously or at predetermined time intervals, within the framework of the method.
  • a pressure relief valve in particular a mechanical pressure relief valve, and/or a controllable pressure control valve, and/or two controllable pressure control valves are preferably used as the relief valve. It is possible for the injection system to have only one mechanical pressure relief valve, which responds above a predetermined overpressure relief pressure amount and relieves the pressure in the high-pressure accumulator towards the fuel reservoir. This serves to ensure the safety of the injection system and avoids impermissibly high pressures in the high-pressure accumulator.
  • At least one controllable pressure control valve can be provided as the shut-off valve.
  • this can serve to provide a disturbance variable in the form of a specific fuel flow from the high-pressure accumulator into the fuel reservoir in order to stabilize a pressure control effected, for example, via a suction throttle that is assigned to a high-pressure pump, wherein it is particularly possible for the suction throttle to serve as the first pressure actuator in a high-pressure control circuit, wherein the controllable pressure control valve is controlled as the second pressure actuator.
  • controllable pressure control valve it is possible for the controllable pressure control valve to completely take over the control of the high pressure in the event of a failure of the suction throttle in a control operation, preferably by means of a second high-pressure control circuit that controls the controllable pressure control valve as the sole pressure actuator.
  • a failure of the suction throttle is detected in particular by the high pressure rising above a predetermined control shut-off pressure amount.
  • the controllable pressure control valve is then controlled for pressure regulation and is typically opened further than if it only generates a disturbance variable as a second pressure actuator in normal operation.
  • controllable pressure control valve is preferably opened when the high pressure exceeds a predetermined overpressure relief pressure amount, so that the high-pressure accumulator can be relieved of pressure into the fuel reservoir.
  • the high pressure drops at least briefly when the mechanical pressure relief valve opens and/or when the at least one controllable pressure control valve is activated either for the first time to regulate the pressure or to relieve the pressure in the high-pressure accumulator in accordance with the protective function of a pressure relief valve.
  • the method therefore checks - in particular continuously - whether a shut-off valve has responded, whereby a continuous injection is only recognized if no shut-off valve has responded in the predetermined test time interval.
  • An embodiment of the method is preferred which is characterized in that the continuous injection test to determine whether the high pressure has fallen by the predetermined continuous injection differential pressure amount within the predetermined continuous injection time interval is only carried out if no shut-off valve has responded in the predetermined test time interval before the start time.
  • the continuous injection test to determine whether the high pressure has fallen by the predetermined continuous injection differential pressure amount within the predetermined continuous injection time interval is only carried out if no shut-off valve has responded in the predetermined test time interval before the start time.
  • This embodiment of the method is particularly economical because it saves computing time and computing resources.
  • the continuous injection test is started at the start time when the high pressure falls below the high pressure setpoint by the predetermined start differential pressure amount.
  • An embodiment of the method is also preferred which is characterized in that, in order to check whether a shut-off valve has responded, it is checked whether the high pressure in the test time interval has reached or exceeded a predetermined shut-off pressure value.
  • a shut-off valve responds in particular when a predetermined shut-off pressure limit value or pressure amount is exceeded.
  • different shut-off pressure amounts can be used within the scope of the method. For example, an overpressure shut-off pressure amount is preferably used as the shut-off pressure amount, which is set up to respond to a mechanical pressure relief valve if one is provided.
  • a second overpressure shut-off pressure amount - possibly different from the first overpressure shut-off pressure amount - is preferably used to control a controllable pressure control valve if this takes on the protective function of a mechanical pressure relief valve for the injection system, in which case preferably no mechanical pressure relief valve is provided.
  • a control-control pressure amount is preferably used as the control pressure amount for the response of a controllable pressure control valve, which is defined in such a way that at this pressure amount the pressure control valve is controlled as the sole pressure actuator, for example if a suction throttle fails and the pressure control is to take place solely via the controllable pressure control valve. It is obvious that exceeding at least one of these control pressure amounts leads to the corresponding control valve being activated. This results in a pressure drop that should not be incorrectly attributed to a continuous injection event. It is therefore sensible to check whether at least one of the predetermined control pressure amounts was reached or exceeded in the test time interval.
  • An embodiment of the method is also preferred which is characterized in that after a continuous injection test - preferably regardless of the result of the test, i.e. regardless of whether a continuous injection was actually detected or whether the test returned a negative result, i.e. the absence of a continuous injection - a next continuous injection test is only carried out when the high pressure has again reached or exceeded the high pressure setpoint.
  • the object is also achieved by creating an injection system for an internal combustion engine, which has at least one injector and at least one high-pressure accumulator, which is fluidically connected on the one hand to the at least one injector and on the other hand via a high-pressure pump to a fuel reservoir.

  • the dynamic rail pressure p dyn then increases again and reaches the target high pressure p S at a third time t 3 .
  • flag 8 is reset to the value 0, while flag 9 is set to the value 1.
  • the dynamic rail pressure p dyn continues to rise, then falls below the target high pressure p S again and reaches the starting high pressure p dyn,S at a fourth time t 4 .
  • the dynamic rail pressure control deviation e dyn is in this case identical to the starting differential pressure amount e S.
  • the marker9 is now reset to the value 0.
  • a decision is made as to whether the continuous injection detection is carried out or not.
  • the time difference ⁇ t Osz is compared with the oscillation time interval ⁇ t L,O , which is analogous to Figure 6 also in Figure 7 is shown as the time period between a first time t 1 and the fourth time t 4 , where the first time t 1 is determined here by the oscillation time interval ⁇ t L,O , calculated from the fourth time t 4 in the Past. If the time difference ⁇ t Osz is less than or equal to the oscillation time interval ⁇ t L,O and at the same time the value of the marker 9 is 1, a high pressure oscillation is detected within the oscillation time interval ⁇ t L,O and the continuous injection detection function is not started.
  • the marker 10 is set to the value 1 at the fourth time t 4 , whereby - as already explained - the continuous injection detection is temporarily blocked.
  • the dynamic rail pressure p dyn subsequently continues to fall and reaches the oscillation limit value p dyn,O at a fifth time t 5.
  • the dynamic rail pressure control deviation e dyn is again identical to the oscillation differential pressure amount e Osz .
  • the marker 8 is now set back to the value 1.
  • the dynamic rail pressure p dyn continues to fall and then rises again and reaches the target high pressure p S at a sixth time t 6 .
  • the marker 8 is reset to the value 0, while the marker 9 is set to the value 1, which was previously set at the fourth time t 4 - namely in the fifteenth sub-step S6_15 according to Figure 5 - was reset to 0.
  • the marker 10 is also reset to the value 0, so that the continuous injection detection is now enabled again. Since in the present case - analogous to the representation according to Figure 6 - a high-pressure oscillation was detected within the oscillation time interval ⁇ t L,O and accordingly no continuous injection detection was carried out, no continuous injection is detected, so that the engine stop signal MS has the value 0 over the entire time - see e). An undesired shutdown of the internal combustion engine 1 is thus avoided.
  • Fig.8 shows a diagrammatic representation of the first embodiment according to Figure 6 the embodiment of the method according to the Figures 4 and 5 as a flow chart; in particular, Figure 8 the sixth sub-step S6_6 according to Figure 5 in the configuration according to the first embodiment variant.
  • a first sub-step S6 6_1 it is checked whether the dynamic rail pressure control deviation e dyn is greater than or equal to the oscillation differential pressure amount e Osz . If this is the case, in a second sub-step S6_6_2 it is checked whether the flag 9 is set, i.e. has the value 1. If this is the case, in a third sub-step S6_6_3 a second time variable t 2,O is set to the current system time t, and the process is then continued with the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • a fourth sub-step S6_6_4 checks whether the flag8 is set. If this is the case, the flag9 is set to the value 1 in a fifth sub-step S6_6_5, the current system time t is assigned to the second time variable t 2,O in a sixth sub-step S6_6_6 and finally the flag8 is reset to 0 in a seventh sub-step S6_6_7. The process is then repeated in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • an eighth sub-step S6_6_8 checks whether the flag7 has the value 1. If this is the case, the current system time t is assigned to the first time variable t 1,O in a ninth sub-step S6_6_9. The process is then continued in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • the value 1 is assigned to the flag7 in a tenth sub-step S6_6_10, and then the current system time t is assigned to the first time variable t 1,O in an eleventh sub-step S6 6_11.
  • the process is then continued in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • the process continues from there in a twelfth sub-step S6_6_12. In this, it is checked whether the dynamic rail pressure control deviation e dyn is less than 0. By definition, this is the case when the dynamic rail pressure p dyn is greater than the target high pressure p S .
  • a thirteenth sub-step S6_6_13 checks whether the flag9 is set. If this is not the case, i.e. the flag has the value 0, the process continues in a fourteenth step S6_6_14, in which it is checked whether the flag8 is set. If this is the case, the process is continued in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued. If, however, the flag8 is not set, a fifteenth sub-step S6_6_15 checks whether the flag7 is set.
  • the process is continued in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 Otherwise, if the flag7 is set, it is reset to 0 in a sixteenth sub-step S6_6_16, and then the flag8 is set in a seventeenth sub-step S6_6_17. The process is then repeated in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • the flag9 is reset to 0 in an eighteenth sub-step S6_6_18; then in a nineteenth step S6_6_19 the flag8 is set; then in a twentieth sub-step S6_6_20 the first time variable t 1,O is set equal to the second time variable t 2,O .
  • the process is then continued in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • the logical variable Merker7 is used to intercept when the dynamic rail pressure p dyn first falls below the oscillation limit value p dyn,O , whereby the system time at which the dynamic rail pressure p dyn reaches the oscillation limit value p dyn,O again from below is then recorded in the first time variable t 1,O .
  • the logical variables Merker8 and Merker9 are then alternately set and reset, and the current system time t is repeatedly assigned to the second time variable t 2,O , whereby the first time variable t 1,O is always assigned the current value of the second time variable t 2,O when the dynamic rail pressure p dyn again reaches the target high pressure p S from below without first reaching the start high pressure p dyn,S .
  • the duration of the last oscillation period is then calculated as the time difference ⁇ t Osz by forming the difference between the starting time and the current value of the first time variable t 1,O .
  • Fig.9 shows a schematic representation of the second embodiment according to Figure 7 the embodiment of the method according to the Figures 4 and 5 , where again the functionality of the sixth sub-step S6_6 according to Figure 5 according to the second embodiment.
  • the functionality is analogous to the functionality just explained with regard to the first embodiment, whereby here the logical variables Merker8 and Merker9 are alternately set and reset and the first time variable t 1,O is updated in a suitable manner.
  • the second time variable t 2,O is also not required here, so the second embodiment is simpler than the first embodiment.
  • a first sub-step S6 6_1 it is also checked whether the dynamic rail pressure control deviation e dyn is greater than or equal to the oscillation differential pressure amount e Osz . If this is the case, a second sub-step S6_6_2 checks whether the flag 9 is set. If this is the case, the process is continued in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued. If, however, the flag9 has the value 0, a third sub-step S6_6_3 checks whether the flag8 is set.
  • the flag8 is set in a fourth sub-step S6_6_4; otherwise the process is continued in a fifth sub-step S6_6_5, skipping the fourth sub-step S6_6_4.
  • the current system time t is assigned to the first time variable t 1,O .
  • This fifth sub-step S6_6_5 is also carried out after the fourth sub-step S6_6_4 if the fourth sub-step S6_6_4 is carried out.
  • the process is continued in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • a sixth sub-step S6_6_6 checks whether the dynamic rail pressure control deviation e dyn is less than 0. If this is not the case, the procedure is repeated in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued. If, however, the result of the query in the sixth sub-step S6_6_6 is positive, a seventh sub-step S6_6_7 checks whether the flag8 is set. If this is not the case, the process is again repeated in the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • the flag8 is set back to the value 0 in an eighth sub-step S6_6_8, and then the flag9 is set to the value 1 in a ninth sub-step S6_6_9.
  • the process is then continued with the seventh sub-step S6_7 according to Figure 5 continued.
  • the method proposed here prevents a continuous injection from being falsely detected when high pressure oscillations are present, which can be caused by intake air, for example. This prevents the unwanted generation of a false alarm and, in particular, prevents the internal combustion engine 1 from being shut down. This increases the safety of the operation of the internal combustion engine 1, while the internal combustion engine 1 remains protected against continuous injections.
