Description

TMM module leakage fault diagnosis method and device
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of vehicles, in particular to a TMM module leakage fault diagnosis method and device.
Background
TMM (Thermal Management Module) module is intelligent thermal management module, can adjust the open/close flow of each branch in the cooling system in real time according to the actual operating mode of vehicle to reach quick warm-up, maintain the function of the optimum operating temperature of system, realize better fuel economy performance. The TMM module is used as a substitute for the mechanical thermostat, and the requirement of 'whether the thermostat works normally or not' in the state six regulations is also required to be met. Besides detecting the working states of the TMM circuit, the sensor and the ball valve, the leakage state (namely leakage fault) of the TMM module is required to be monitored, and if the temperature of the cooling system of the engine is abnormal due to the leakage fault of the TMM module, the system can accurately identify the leakage fault state.
At present, a relatively direct method for judging whether a TMM module has leakage faults is to calculate the temperature of engine model cooling liquid, and then check and judge the temperature of the model and the actual cooling liquid. However, the temperature of engine coolant is affected by many factors such as intake air amount, fuel injection amount, EGR, exhaust gas pressurization, warm air, vehicle speed, etc., so that it is more challenging to obtain a more accurate model water temperature. The leakage fault diagnosis of the TMM module is realized by using a double water temperature diagnosis method, wherein the diagnosis method is to install a water temperature sensor at the water outlet of the radiator, and before the TMM module opens the water path of the radiator, whether the TMM module has leakage fault is judged by comparing the difference between the water temperature at the water outlet of the radiator and the water temperature of the engine. The dual water temperature diagnosis method needs to add an extra water temperature sensor in terms of hardware, and needs to select points and punch holes on the radiator, so that the hardware cost is high.
Therefore, it is necessary to establish an accurate and low-cost method and device for diagnosing leakage faults of the TMM module, so as to conveniently diagnose whether the TMM module has leakage faults.

The terminology used herein in the description of the application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.
Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a TMM module fault diagnosis method according to a first embodiment of the present application. The method for diagnosing the TMM module fault of the embodiment, referring to FIG. 1, can include the following steps:
step S104, judging whether the cooling liquid reaches primary heat balance after the engine is started, whether the TMM module is not started for large circulation, whether the vehicle speed is in a preset vehicle speed range (for example, 30 km/h-100 km/h), and whether the fan has no faults, if yes, performing step S105, and preferably, if no, that is, neither side-by-side conditions are satisfied, performing step S108.
Wherein, this step may further include: the timer is reset.

The engine controller judges that the temperature drop value of the engine cooling liquid is larger than the temperature drop threshold value, the counter is accumulated by 1, and judges the times that the temperature drop value of the engine cooling liquid is larger than the accumulated threshold value, and the temperature drop threshold value and the accumulated threshold value can be set according to actual needs.
And step S109, diagnosing that the TMM module has leakage faults, and ending the diagnosis.

In summary, according to the method for diagnosing the fault of the TMM module provided by the embodiment of the present application, by determining whether the coolant reaches the primary heat balance after the engine is started, and whether the TMM module does not start the large cycle, and whether the vehicle speed is within the preset vehicle speed range, and whether the fan has no fault; if the judgment result is yes, when the temperature of the cooling liquid has a peak, the fan is started at the maximum; judging whether the duration time of the fan exceeds a period of time; if yes, controlling to stop rotating the fan; learning an engine coolant temperature curve to calculate the temperature difference between a pair of adjacent wave peaks and wave troughs to obtain a coolant temperature drop value, wherein the temperature drop value is larger than a threshold value, the counting times are accumulated by 1, and judging whether the counting times accumulated value is larger than or equal to an accumulated threshold value; if the judgment result is that the accumulated value of the counting times is greater than or equal to the accumulated threshold value, the TMM module is diagnosed as having leakage fault, so that the method does not need to add any complex equipment, and the TMM leakage diagnosis can be completed by analyzing the difference between the leakage state of the TMM module and the cooling waterway in a normal state, and the method for actively controlling the fan is provided; and secondly, a complex model is not required to be constructed to calculate the temperature of the cooling liquid model, so that the cost of manpower and material resources is saved.
Fig. 2 is a detailed step schematic diagram of the TMM module fault diagnosis method of fig. 1. Similar to the TMM module fault diagnosis method shown in fig. 1, the difference is that the method specifically may further include, before step 104 in fig. 2: steps S101 to S103 may further include steps S110 to S111:
in step S101, after the engine is successfully started, it is determined whether the engine start temperature is lower than a preset temperature (for example, 60 degrees) and the ambient temperature is higher than a preset ambient temperature (for example, -7 degrees), if the engine start temperature is lower than the preset temperature and the ambient temperature is higher than the preset ambient temperature, step S102 is performed, and preferably, if one of the conditions is not satisfied, the diagnosis is ended.
After the engine is started successfully, the engine controller can judge whether the engine starting temperature is lower than a preset temperature (for example, 60 degrees) or not and whether the ambient temperature is higher than a preset ambient temperature (for example, 7 degrees) or not according to the obtained engine starting temperature and the ambient temperature. The engine starting temperature and the environment temperature can be acquired through a temperature sensor.
In step S102, the engine controller determines whether the opening degree of the valid TMM module can be read, if the engine controller can read the opening degree of the valid TMM module, step S103 is performed, and preferably, if the engine controller cannot read the opening degree of the valid TMM module, the diagnosis is ended.
If the TMM module has no sensor fault, communication fault and the like, the engine controller can read the effective opening degree of the TMM module. The engine controller can compare the read opening of the TMM module with the opening corresponding to the preset large circulation opening, and can judge whether the large circulation is actively opened or not by reading the TMM opening. The read opening degree of the TMM module is effective, and is a precondition for carrying out the subsequent TMM module leakage fault diagnosis process. The TMM module is used to control the temperature of the engine coolant. The TMM module is used for controlling the temperature of engine cooling liquid by opening the opening of the ball valve within a certain angle range. For example, if the opening degree of the ball valve is opened by the TMM module is greater than 67 degrees, the large circulation is controlled to be opened, the engine coolant flows through the radiator to rapidly dissipate heat, the heat dissipation is faster, the influence on the coolant temperature is larger when the fan is opened, if the opening degree of the ball valve is smaller than 67 degrees by the TMM module, the large circulation is controlled not to be opened, the heat dissipation is slower, and the influence on the coolant temperature is smaller when the fan is opened.
Step S103, determining whether the temperature of the engine coolant is lower than the lowest temperature of the TMM module closed-loop control, if so, performing step S104, preferably, if it is higher than the lowest temperature of the TMM module closed-loop control, proceeding to step S110.
Step S104, resetting the timer, judging whether the cooling liquid reaches one time of heat balance after the engine is started, judging whether the TMM module does not start large circulation, judging whether the vehicle speed is in a preset vehicle speed range (for example, 30 km/h-100 km/h) and whether the fan has no faults, if so, executing step S105, and preferably, if not, namely, judging that the parallel conditions are not met, executing step S108.
Wherein, resetting the timer is to zero the timer value.
Step S105, when the peak of the coolant temperature occurs, the fan is turned on at the maximum.
When the temperature of the coolant has an inflection point that decreases, it is determined that the temperature of the coolant has a peak.
Step S106, it is determined whether the duration of rotation of the fan exceeds a period of time, and it is also preferable to determine whether, for example, 2 minutes, or whether a trough occurs in the water temperature, or whether a large cycle is turned on, or whether a failure occurs in the fan, or whether the vehicle speed exceeds a preset vehicle speed range, for example, a range of 30km/h to 100km/h, if yes, step S107 is performed, if no, that is, neither condition is satisfied, and step S105 is performed again.
In step S107, control stops rotating the fan.
Step S108, learning the temperature curve of the engine coolant to calculate the temperature difference between the adjacent pair of peak and trough values, namely the coolant temperature drop value, wherein the temperature drop value is larger than the temperature drop threshold value, the count number is accumulated by 1, and whether the count number accumulated value is larger than or equal to the accumulated threshold value, for example, 3 is judged, if the count number accumulated value is larger than or equal to 3 as a judgment result, step S109 is performed, and preferably, if the judgment result is smaller than 3, step S102 is performed in a returning manner.
The engine controller may learn an engine coolant temperature profile in order to calculate a temperature difference between a pair of adjacent peak and valley values, i.e., a coolant temperature drop value. The engine controller judges that the temperature drop value of the engine cooling liquid is larger than the temperature drop threshold value, the counter is accumulated by 1, and judges the times that the temperature drop value of the engine cooling liquid is larger than the accumulated threshold value, and the temperature drop threshold value and the accumulated threshold value can be set according to actual needs.
And step S109, diagnosing that the TMM module has leakage faults, and ending the diagnosis.
Step S110, starting a timer, judging whether the time counted by the timer exceeds the threshold time, if the judgment result is that the time counted by the timer exceeds the threshold time, diagnosing that the TMM module has no leakage fault, and ending the diagnosis, otherwise, if the time counted by the timer does not exceed the threshold time, executing step S103.
In the step, whether the temperature duration of the engine coolant is longer than the accumulated time of the lowest temperature of TMM closed-loop control is judged, and whether leakage faults exist or not is obtained. In the application, if the TMM module has leakage fault, the temperature of the engine cooling liquid is circulated greatly before the TMM module actively opens the radiator, and the engine cooling liquid passes through the radiator and returns to the engine after being cooled by the radiator. Therefore, the temperature of the engine coolant is greatly influenced by the heat dissipation coefficient of the radiator, when the heat dissipation coefficient of the radiator is large, the temperature of the engine coolant rises slowly or even generates larger temperature drop, and when the heat dissipation coefficient of the radiator is small, the temperature of the engine coolant generates smaller temperature drop or even possibly rises faster. In summary, when the TMM module has a leakage failure, when the TMM module opens a large cycle, the temperature change of the engine coolant has a strong correlation with the heat dissipation coefficient of the radiator. The heat dissipation coefficient of the radiator has strong correlation with the windward quantity of the vehicle, and the windward quantity of the vehicle can be controlled by the fan. Therefore, the windward quantity of the vehicle is increased by actively controlling the rotation of the fan, and whether the TMM module has leakage faults is identified by learning whether the temperature of engine cooling liquid generates larger temperature drop in the process of controlling the fan. The diagnosis method of the active control fan is simple, reliable and easy to realize, avoids the problem of high accuracy requirement of conventional water temperature model verification, is simple and easy to calibrate, can be used for TMM leakage fault diagnosis of the gasoline engine national six OBD cooling system only by determining the temperature drop threshold value of the leakage part, and is suitable for the leakage fault diagnosis of the TMM intelligent temperature regulating module.
In summary, according to the method for diagnosing the fault of the TMM module provided by the embodiment of the present application, by determining whether the coolant reaches the primary heat balance after the engine is started, and whether the TMM module does not start the large cycle, and whether the vehicle speed is within the preset vehicle speed range, and whether the fan has no fault; if the judgment result is yes, when the temperature of the cooling liquid has a peak, the fan is started at the maximum; judging whether the duration time of the fan exceeds a period of time; if yes, controlling to stop rotating the fan; learning an engine coolant temperature curve to calculate the temperature difference between a pair of adjacent wave peaks and wave troughs to obtain a coolant temperature drop value, wherein the temperature drop value is larger than a threshold value, the counting times are accumulated by 1, and judging whether the counting times accumulated value is larger than or equal to an accumulated threshold value; if the judgment result is that the accumulated value of the counting times is greater than or equal to the accumulated threshold value, the TMM module is diagnosed as having leakage fault, so that the method does not need to add any complex equipment, and the TMM leakage diagnosis can be completed by analyzing the difference between the leakage state of the TMM module and the cooling waterway in a normal state, and the method for actively controlling the fan is provided; and secondly, a complex model is not required to be constructed to calculate the temperature of the cooling liquid model, so that the cost of manpower and material resources is saved.
