Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for monitoring the ventilation of a crankcase of an internal combustion engine and an internal combustion engine, in particular an internal combustion engine with crankcase ventilation.
- blow-by gases always occur in the crankcase of combustion engines. Since the crankcase forms a closed space, the pressure would increase steadily without venting. In order to avoid this, the blow-by gases, which contain combustion products and unburned hydrocarbons, can be specifically discharged from the crankcase.
- the ideal relative crankcase pressure is in the slightly negative range of around - 2 mbar, since under these conditions the engine does not tend to “sweat out” lubricating oil. If the vacuum is significantly higher (the value is engine-specific and dependent on the design of the sealing compound), there is a risk that air mixed with dirt particles will be sucked in via the shaft sealing rings and seals on the crankcase. This would lead to increased wear on internal components. When bleeding, oil droplets that are generated by rotating components are inevitably entrained from the crankcase.
- the gases trapped in the crankcase can at least partly also get past the pistons into the combustion chambers and thus into the exhaust tract.
- the vent line can clog, tear off or the connection to the intake tract can be missing. This restricts ventilation and pollutants from the crankcase can escape into the environment. Therefore, the proper functioning of the crankcase ventilation should be monitored.
- DE 10 2014 218 971 A1 describes a method and systems for moisture and crankcase ventilation detection using an exhaust gas sensor.
- the exhaust gas sensor such as a linear oxygen sensor, an HC or CO sensor, or a NOx sensor
- the exhaust gas sensor may be used for humidity estimation and/or positive crankcase ventilation (PVC) hydrocarbons (PCV) estimation. Hydrocarbons)
- PVC positive crankcase ventilation
- PCV hydrocarbons
- the present invention is essentially based on the object of determining and checking the proper functionality of a crankcase ventilation of an internal combustion engine in a simple and cost-effective manner.
- the present invention is essentially based on the idea that during predetermined operating modes, during which there is no combustion of an air-fuel mixture in the combustion chambers of the internal combustion engine, the crankcase ventilation by means of a in the exhaust tract Internal combustion engine to monitor provided nitrogen oxide sensor.
- the exhaust gases trapped in the crankcase re-enter the combustion chambers and thus the exhaust system via the ventilation line and/or as so-called blow-by exhaust gases, and can thus be detected by the nitrogen oxide sensor arranged in the exhaust system. If the nitrogen oxide sensor, which is arranged and present in the exhaust tract anyway, indicates a nitrogen oxide content above a predetermined threshold value during the predetermined operating modes of the internal combustion engine, proper and functional crankcase ventilation can be concluded, since the ventilation path from the crankcase into the combustion chambers and thus into the exhaust tract is free and unblocked.
- crankcase ventilation is not functioning properly. In particular, it can then be determined that the ventilation path from the crankcase into the exhaust tract is at least partially blocked or clogged.
- a method for monitoring the ventilation of a crankcase of an internal combustion engine which has a nitrogen oxide sensor which is arranged in an exhaust gas tract of the internal combustion engine and is designed to detect the nitrogen oxide content in the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine.
- the method according to the invention includes determining a predetermined operating mode of the internal combustion engine during which essentially no combustion of an air-fuel mixture takes place in a combustion chamber, determining a nitrogen oxide content in the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine during the predetermined operating mode of the internal combustion engine using the nitrogen oxide sensor and determining functional crankcase ventilation if the nitrogen oxide value determined during the predetermined operating mode of the internal combustion engine exceeds a predetermined nitrogen oxide threshold value.
- the nitrogen oxide value is determined after a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the predetermined operating mode of the internal combustion engine has been determined. It can thus be ensured, for example, that the exhaust gases generated during the combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chambers have been completely expelled from the combustion chambers and have already flowed past the nitrogen oxide sensor, so that the exhaust gas measured by the nitrogen oxide sensor escapes from the crankcase during the predetermined operating mode must originate.
- the predetermined period of time is approximately 5 seconds, preferably approximately 3 seconds.
- the nitrogen oxide value may be determined only when an air mass integral in the exhaust system exceeds a predetermined air mass integral threshold value.
- the time until the nitrogen oxide sensor can measure the exhaust gases originating from the crankcase depends on the mass throughput and the volume of the exhaust tract. Consequently, in such an alternative configuration it is advantageous to determine the nitrogen oxide value only when the air mass integral in the exhaust system exceeds the predetermined air mass integral threshold value.
- the nitrogen oxide sensor requires a certain amount of time to settle in with the measured nitrogen oxide value.
- the predetermined operating mode of the internal combustion engine has an overrun cut-off phase of the internal combustion engine. It is preferably an overrun cutoff phase that follows directly in time after high-load operation of the internal combustion engine.
- the amount of nitrogen oxide ie the amount of so-called blow-by gas in the crankcase, the greater the higher the load on the internal combustion engine. Accordingly, it may be advantageous to diagnose the crankcase ventilation during an overrun fuel cut-off phase that directly follows high-load operation of the internal combustion engine.
- the method according to the invention also includes determining a malfunctioning ventilation of the crankcase if the nitrogen oxide value determined during the predetermined operating mode of the internal combustion engine exceeds the predetermined
- crankcase ventilation is at least partially or in sections clogged or blocked and consequently the crankcase ventilation can no longer take place properly.
- the method preferably also includes outputting a warning to the operator of the internal combustion engine if malfunctioning ventilation of the crankcase has been determined.
- the predetermined nitrogen oxide threshold value can preferably be selected depending on the previous load of the internal combustion engine.
- an internal combustion engine comprising at least one combustion chamber defined by a piston (??) reciprocatingly reciprocating within a cylinder, a crankcase in which the piston is at least partially located, and the is at least partially fluidly connected to the combustion chamber via a gap between the piston and the cylinder, an exhaust tract which is fluidly connected to the at least one combustion chamber, a nitrogen oxide sensor which is arranged in the exhaust tract and is designed to detect the nitrogen oxide content in the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine, and one Has a control unit which is designed to carry out a method according to the invention for monitoring the ventilation of the crankcase.
- the internal combustion engine preferably also includes a catalytic converter, which is arranged downstream of the nitrogen oxide sensor, for after-treatment of the exhaust gas.
- the internal combustion engine also has an intake pipe which is fluidly connected to the at least one combustion chamber and is designed to supply air to the at least one combustion chamber for the combustion of an air-fuel mixture, and a ventilation line which connects the crankcase with the Intake pipe fluidly connected.
- Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of an internal combustion engine of a vehicle
- FIG. 2 shows an exemplary flow chart of a method according to the invention for monitoring the ventilation of the crankcase of the internal combustion engine of FIG. 1 .
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic view of an internal combustion engine 100 of a vehicle.
- the internal combustion engine 100 has an intake pipe (or
- Air inlet line) 102 and associated combustion chambers 110 (in FIG. 1 only one of the four combustion chambers 110 provided with reference numerals). Intake air can reach the combustion chambers 110 via the intake pipe 102, where the intake air can be mixed with fuel and burned in a known manner. The direction of flow of the intake air is indicated by the arrow 104 .
- the combustion chambers 110 are formed by cylinders 112 and pistons 114 reciprocatingly moving therein, whereby the volume of the combustion chambers 110 is variable over time.
- the pistons 114 are at least partially disposed within a crankcase 120 and mechanically coupled to a crankshaft 122 disposed therein, as is well known in the art.
- the combustion chambers 110 are fluidly connected to an exhaust duct 130 via which the exhaust gases generated due to the combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chambers 110 can be expelled into the environment after after-treatment.
- the exhaust tract 130 only describes the section of the internal combustion engine 100 which is designed exclusively for ejecting the exhaust gases.
- a nitrogen oxide sensor 140 and a catalytic converter 150 which is arranged downstream of the nitrogen oxide sensor 140 and is designed for after-treating the exhaust gases, are arranged in the exhaust tract 130.
- Nitrogen oxide sensor 140 is designed to determine the nitrogen oxide content in the exhaust gas at the position downstream of combustion chambers 110 .
- a control unit 160 communicates with nitrogen oxide sensor 140 and is designed to receive the nitrogen oxide values detected by nitrogen oxide sensor 140 and to at least partially control the operation of internal combustion engine 100 .
- a control valve 126 is provided in the ventilation line 124 with which the ventilation of the crankcase 120 into the intake manifold 102 can be controlled.
- the control valve 126 is preferably a pressure regulator valve capable of automatically controlling the pressure within the crankcase 120 .
- the pressure in the crankcase 120 can be adjusted in the intake manifold 102 with the aid of a mechanical regulating valve (not shown in FIG. 1 ).
- the exhaust gases collected in the crankcase 120 can be fed to the combustion chambers 110 and thus also to the exhaust tract 130 for later work cycles, where they can be post-treated by means of the catalytic converter device 150 .
- the blow-by gases are introduced into intake manifold 102 via vent line 124 . Due to the negative pressure in the intake pipe 124, a negative pressure also arises in the crankcase 120 in most operating states of the internal combustion engine 100. In the case of supercharged internal combustion engines 100, the introduction can take place before the turbocharger. The exhaust gases from the crankcase 120 are sucked in as a result.
- the method of FIG. 2 starts at step 200 and then proceeds to step 210 where it is determined whether the internal combustion engine 100 is in a predetermined operating mode during which combustion of an air-fuel mixture within the combustion chambers 110 does not occur.
- a predetermined operating mode can be present in the form of an overrun cutoff phase of internal combustion engine 100 .
- the method remains at step 210 until a predetermined operating mode is determined. If a predetermined operating mode of internal combustion engine 100 is determined in step 210, the method proceeds to step 220, at which a nitrogen oxide value is determined using nitrogen oxide sensor 140. In a subsequent step 230, it is determined whether the nitrogen oxide value determined in step 220 exceeds a predetermined nitrogen oxide threshold value, such as 50 ppm.
- a predetermined time period of approximately 3 seconds, preferably approximately 1 second, can be awaited before step 220 is carried out. It can thus be ensured that at the time of the nitrogen oxide measurement, the exhaust gases generated due to the combustion that previously took place in the combustion chambers 110 have already flowed past the nitrogen oxide sensor 140 . Consequently, the exhaust gas measured at step 220 should be the exhaust gas vented from the crankcase 120 .
- step 230 If it is determined in step 230 that the nitrogen oxide value determined in step 220 exceeds the predetermined nitrogen oxide threshold value, the method proceeds to step 240, at which a properly functioning crankcase ventilation system is diagnosed before the method at step 260 ends.
- exceeding the predetermined NOx threshold may be construed as allowing the exhaust gases trapped in crankcase 120 to either flow through vent line 124 or past pistons 114 (i.e., along arrow 108 in FIG. 1) into combustion chambers 110 and thus into the exhaust tract 130 can flow.
- these two vent paths are essentially unblocked and essentially free.
- step 230 determines whether the nitrogen oxide value determined in step 220 does not exceed, i.e. falls below, the predetermined nitrogen oxide threshold value.
- the method proceeds to step 250, at which an improperly functioning or malfunctioning crankcase ventilation is diagnosed, before the method returns to step 260 ends.
- falling below the predetermined nitrogen oxide threshold value can be interpreted in such a way that the im Exhaust gases trapped in crankcase 120 are unable to flow via vent line 124 or past pistons 114 (ie, along arrow 108 in FIG. 1 ) into combustion chambers 110 and thus into exhaust passage 130 as desired.
- at least one of these two ventilation paths is at least partially blocked or clogged, for example by soot particles, a defective oil separator, a pinched line or a clogged intake air filter.
- the method according to the invention can consequently be used to monitor whether one of the above-mentioned ventilation paths, which lead from the crankcase 120 into the exhaust gas tract 130, is essentially free or at least partially blocked.
- this monitoring can be carried out in a simple manner using the nitrogen oxide sensor 140 which is arranged in the exhaust tract 130 anyway.
