Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method pertaining to an HC (hydrocarbon) dosing system.
- the invention relates also to a computer programme product containing programme code for a computer for implementing a method according to the invention.
- the invention relates also to an HC dosing 10 system and a motor vehicle which is equipped with the HC dosing system.
- diesel fuel is used as fuel in DPF (diesel particulate filter) 15 systems which comprise a particle filter.
- the particle filter is adapted to capturing, for example, diesel particles and soot.
- diesel fuel is supplied to an exhaust pipe downstream of an engine and is led into an oxidation catalyst, also called DOC.
- DOC oxidation catalyst
- said diesel fuel is ignited and burnt and causes a rise in 20 the temperature of the exhaust system. Active regeneration of the particle filter situated downstream of the oxidation catalyst can thus be effected.
- One type of DPF system comprises a container for diesel fuel.
- the DPF system may also have a pump adapted to drawing said diesel fuel from the
- the container via a suction hose and to supplying it via a pressure hose to a dosing unit situated adjacent to an exhaust system of the vehicle, e.g. adjacent to an exhaust pipe of the exhaust system.
- the container may be the vehicle's fuel tank or a separate container of the DPF system.
- the dosing unit is adapted to injecting a necessary amount of diesel fuel into the
- the system also comprises a return hose which runs back from a pressure side of the system to the container.
- This configuration makes it possible to cool the dosing unit by means of said diesel fuel which, during cooling, flows from the container via the pump and the dosing unit and back to the container. This results in active cooling of the dosing unit.
- the return flow from the dosing valve to the container is currently substantially constant.
- air may enter the DPF system upstream of the pump. This may for example occur during start-up of the DPF system after its initial fitting, in which case there will be air in the suction hose.
- Air may also enter the suction hose when the DPF system has used up all the available fuel in the separate container, in which case the container will be empty of fuel, the pump runs dry and air is drawn into it via the suction hose.
- air may enter the suction hose in situations where there is a limited amount of fuel left in the separate container in the DPF system and said DPF system moves in such a way that splashing occurs in the container, in which case air may be drawn into the pump via the suction hose.
- suction hose may be incorrectly fitted to the pump such that air leakage occurs on the upstream side of the pump.
- air may be drawn into the pump via the suction hose or at a faulty or damaged seal between the suction hose and the pump.
- suction hose may itself be frayed or defective in such a way as to allow air to be drawn into the pump via the hose. Any air entering the pump on an inlet side of it will adversely affect the fuel flow in the DPF system, thereby reducing a cooling power of the dosing unit, with potential risk of overheating of temperature-sensitive components of the dosing unit.
- Regeneration of the DPF system's particle filter may also be adversely affected by presence of air in the pump in that the fuel supply to the oxidation catalyst will be limited, with consequent lowering of the temperature. In such cases, any desired regeneration will take more time. It will also be more difficult to regulate a temperature of the DPF system.
- the dosing unit As the dosing unit is currently situated adjacent to the vehicle's exhaust system which becomes warm during operation of the vehicle, e.g. depending on the engine's load, there is risk of the dosing valve becoming overheated. Overheating of the dosing unit may entail degradation of its functionality, potentially impairing its performance.
- the dosing unit currently comprises electrical components, certain of them being provided with a circuit card.
- Said circuit card may for example be adapted to controlling the dosing of diesel fuel to the vehicle's exhaust system.
- these electrical components are sensitive to high temperatures. Too high temperatures of the dosing unit may result in degradation of the electrical components, potentially leading to expensive repairs at a service workshop.
- diesel fuel present in the dosing unit may at least partly convert to solid form at too high temperatures, potentially leading to obstruction of the dosing unit.
- said diesel fuel undergoes pyrolysis in the dosing unit and is thereby at least partly converted to coke. Thus at least part of said diesel fuel may carbonise. It is therefore of the utmost importance that the temperature of the dosing unit of the DPF system should not exceed a critical level.
- An object of the present invention is to propose a novel and advantageous method for improving the performance of an HC dosing system.
- An object of the present invention is to propose a novel and advantageous method for improving the performance of a DPF system.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a novel and advantageous HC dosing system and a novel and advantageous computer programme for improving the performance of a HC dosing system.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a novel and advantageous DPF system and a novel and advantageous computer programme for improving the performance of a DPF system.
- An object of the present invention is to propose a novel and advantageous method for improving regeneration of a particle filter of an HC dosing system when there is air in said HC dosing system.
- a further object of the invention is to propose an alternative method pertaining to an HC dosing system and an alternative computer programme pertaining to an HC dosing system, and an alternative HC dosing system.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a method pertaining to an HC dosing system whereby a working pressure of the fuel can be built up more quickly than in the state of the art when there is air in a feed device.
- An aspect of the invention proposes a method pertaining to an HC dosing system whereby fuel is supplied to a feed device via which fuel is supplied to at least one consumption point from a container, comprising the step of continuously detecting the feed pressure furnished by the feed device, and of controlling the operation of the feed device on the basis of changes in said feed pressure, with the object of reducing the impact of unwanted air supply at the feed device.
- This makes it possible for a working pressure of the fuel to be built up more quickly than in the state of the art in the presence of air supplied upstream to a feed device.
- the method may further comprise the step of altering the operation of the feed device in correlation with the changes in said feed pressure.
- Control of the operation of said feed device may be relative to a predetermined level of the feed pressure which the feed device is intended to furnish.
- This predetermined level denotes a predetermined working pressure at which the HC dosing system is intended to operate.
- Said predetermined level of the working pressure which the feed device is intended to furnish may be any desired suitable level.
- This solution does not involve much calculation capacity, since a time derivative of the feed pressure can quickly and easily be determined by calculation means intended for the purpose.
- the result is a method which can quickly adapt the control of the feed device in response to sudden changes in the feed pressure caused by presence of air at the feed device.
- the method may further comprise the steps of
- optimising the HC dosing system's start-up time in the presence of air supplied to the feed device means that regeneration of the DPF filter can be improved and made more effective in certain applications where the HC dosing system is used to supply a fuel to a DPF system.
- Start-up time means a time from when presence of air at the feed device is detected to when a desired working pressure of the HC dosing system is reached.
- the start-up time may with advantage be shorter than, for example, three minutes.
- the method may further comprise the step of
- Detecting feed device behaviour characterised by presence of air at the feed device makes it possible for the feed device to be controlled according to the invention in order thereby to improve or optimise the HC dosing system's start-up time.
- the feed device may be a diaphragm pump.
- the feed device may be any suitable pump, e.g. a gear pump.
- Said at least one consumption point may be a dosing unit.
- the innovative method may be applied to continuously adapt an operating power of the feed device to a prevailing situation, particularly taking into account the time derivative of the feed pressure of the feed device.
- a positive effect of the innovative method is that a better mean efficiency of the feed device in the presence of air at it can be achieved.
- the method is easy to implement in existing motor vehicles.
- Software pertaining to an HC dosing system whereby fuel is supplied to a feed device via which fuel is supplied to at least one consumption point from a container according to the invention may be installed in a control unit of the vehicle during the manufacture of the vehicle. A purchaser of the vehicle may thus have the possibility of selecting the function of the method as an option.
- software which comprises programme code for applying the innovative method pertaining to an HC dosing system whereby fuel is supplied to a feed device via which fuel is supplied to at least one consumption point from a container may be installed in a control unit of the vehicle on the occasion of upgrading at a service station, in which case the software may be loaded into a memory in the control unit.
- Implementing the innovative method is therefore cost-effective, particularly as no further sensors or components need be installed in the vehicle. Relevant hardware is currently already provided in the vehicle. The invention therefore represents a cost-effective solution to the problems indicated above.
- Software comprising programme code pertaining to a HC dosing system whereby fuel in liquid form is supplied to a feed device via which fuel is supplied to at least one consumption point from a container is easy to update or replace.
- Various parts of the software comprising programme code pertaining to an HC dosing system whereby fuel is supplied to a feed device via which fuel is supplied to at least one consumption point from a container may also be replaced independently of one another.
- This modular configuration is advantageous from a maintenance perspective.
- An aspect of the invention proposes an HC dosing system adapted to supplying fuel in liquid form to a feed device which is itself adapted to supplying fuel to at least one consumption point from a container, comprising: - means for continuously detecting the feed pressure furnished by the feed device, and
- the HC dosing system may further comprise means for altering the operation of the feed device in correlation with the changes in said feed pressure.
- control of the operation of said feed device may be by means of a pump speed of the feed device.
- control of the operation of said feed device may be relative to a predetermined level of the feed pressure which the feed device is intended to furnish.
- control of the operation of said feed device may be based on the time derivative of said detected feed pressure.
- the HC dosing system may further comprise

- the curve of the pump speed PV follows relatively well the shape of a curve for the first-order time derivative P' of the feed pressure P.
- a main principle of the invention is that the faster the feed pressure P rises the higher the pump speed PV becomes.
- the pump speed PV is reduced on the basis of how quickly the feed pressure drops. When the feed pressure P is dropping, the pump speed PV is relatively low.
- the pump speed may be controlled in any suitable way on the basis of the first-order derivative of the feed pressure P.
- the result is adaptive control of the speed of the pump in order in an effective way to make it possible to build up the HC dosing system's feed pressure to a desirable level when there is air at the pump 230, according to an aspect of the invention.
- a positive effect is that the innovative method makes it possible to shorten a period of time between two peaks of the feed pressure, e.g. the period T1-T3.
