Based on the above problems, the present application provides a method for preventing carbon deposition in a spark plug, wherein after an engine is shut down, if a vehicle meets a misfire condition, a virtual ignition signal is generated, a misfire action is performed on the spark plug according to a certain ignition sequence based on the virtual ignition signal, the generated spark arc is used to clean the carbon deposition in the spark plug, and the misfire action is stopped after a quit condition is met. Therefore, the problem that the normal operation of the engine is possibly influenced by additional ignition at the initial starting stage of the engine and at the specific ignition moment in the power stroke of the engine is solved, the spark plug can be cleaned after being stopped, the cleaning degree of the spark plug is improved, a good ignition foundation is provided for the next normal starting, and the fault rate of the problem of cylinder flooding in cold starting is reduced.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the method for preventing carbon deposition of the spark plug according to the embodiment of the invention comprises the following steps:
and S101, judging whether the vehicle meets a misfire condition after the engine is stopped, wherein the misfire condition comprises that the last running time of the engine is in a preset time interval.
The preset duration interval may be a duration interval preset by a user, a duration interval obtained through a limited number of experiments, or a duration interval obtained through a limited number of computer simulations, and is not specifically limited herein. Preferably, the preset time interval is 1-30 minutes.
Specifically, according to the embodiment of the application, after the vehicle is turned OFF when the OFF gear is turned OFF, the main relay is powered OFF in a delayed mode, and if an ECU (Electronic Control Unit) monitors that the engine speed is 0 (namely, the engine is stopped), and the last running time of the engine is within 1-30 minutes (different vehicle types can adjust the last running time range according to the water temperature rising time), it is determined that the idle trip condition is met.
Further, in some embodiments, the misfire condition further comprises: the current ambient temperature of the vehicle is below a first temperature threshold and the water temperature is below a second temperature threshold.
The first temperature threshold and the second temperature threshold may be thresholds preset by a user, may be thresholds obtained through limited experiments, or may be thresholds obtained through limited computer simulations, and preferably, the first temperature threshold is 0 ℃ and the second temperature threshold is 70 ℃.
Specifically, after the engine is stopped, when judging whether the vehicle meets the empty fire jumping condition, the embodiment of the application also needs to judge the current ambient temperature and the current water temperature of the vehicle. That is, after the vehicle is turned to an OFF gear and is flamed out, the main relay is powered OFF in a delayed mode, if the ECU monitors that the rotating speed of the engine is 0, the last running time of the engine is within 1-30 minutes (different vehicle types can adjust the last running time range according to the water temperature rising time), the environment temperature is lower than 0 ℃ and the water temperature is lower than 70 ℃, and the condition of idle fire jumping is judged to be met.
Further, the skip fire condition further comprises: the ignition system of the vehicle is not in fault; the current voltage of the storage battery is larger than the first preset voltage.
The first preset voltage may be a voltage preset by a user, may be a voltage obtained through a limited number of experiments, and may also be a voltage obtained through a limited number of computer simulations, and preferably, the first preset voltage is 12.5V.
That is to say, in the embodiment of the application, after the engine is stopped, when judging whether the vehicle meets the idle-trip fire condition, the ignition system of the vehicle needs to be judged. That is, after the vehicle is turned to an OFF gear and flamed out, the main relay is powered OFF in a delayed mode, if the ignition system has no fault, and the ECU monitors that the rotating speed of the engine is 0, the voltage of the storage battery is greater than 12.5V, the last running time of the engine is within 1-30 minutes (different vehicle types can adjust the last running time range according to the rising time of water temperature), and the ambient temperature is lower than 0 ℃ and the water temperature is lower than 70 ℃, the condition of idle fire jumping is determined to be met.
In addition, as shown in fig. 3, considering that the whole vehicle empty sparking function is mainly applied to the normal working period of the spark plug (the insulation resistance is more than or equal to 10M Ω), the resistance change is analyzed according to the sparking process of the spark plug with the insulation resistance of more than 10M Ω, the time for the insulation resistance of the spark plug to rise by 10M Ω is less than 30s, and the single-cylinder sparking frequency is 1200 times. And step S102, when the vehicle meets the empty spark-over condition, generating a virtual ignition signal.
That is, if the vehicle satisfies the misfire condition, the ECU may send a virtual ignition signal to the ignition coil to perform the misfire action of the ignition plug.
And step S103, based on the virtual ignition signal, executing a blank jump action on the spark plug according to a preset ignition sequence, cleaning carbon deposition in the spark plug by using the generated spark arc, and stopping the blank jump action after meeting an exit condition.
Further, in some embodiments, performing a skip fire action on the spark plugs in accordance with a preset firing sequence includes: and controlling the ignition of the spark plug according to the preset cleaning frequency, the preset cleaning magnetizing time and the preset cleaning duration.
Preferably, in some embodiments, further, the preset cleaning frequency is less than or equal to 40 Hz; presetting the cleaning and magnetizing time to be less than or equal to 2.8 ms; the preset cleaning duration is greater than or equal to 30 s.
Wherein, in some embodiments, the exit condition comprises: the duration of the air jumping fire is longer than the preset duration; or the current voltage of the storage battery is less than or equal to a second preset voltage; alternatively, the ignition system fails; or, starting the vehicle (such as triggering a vehicle Key-ON gear); alternatively, the rotation speed of the engine is greater than a preset rotation speed (e.g., the preset rotation speed is 0).
The preset ignition sequence can be a sequence preset by a user, can be a sequence obtained through limited experiments, and can also be a sequence obtained through limited computer simulation; the preset duration can be a duration preset by a user, can be a duration obtained through limited experiments, and can also be a duration obtained through limited computer simulation; the second preset voltage may be a voltage preset by a user, may be a voltage obtained through a limited number of experiments, or may be a voltage obtained through a limited number of computer simulations; the preset rotation speed may be a rotation speed preset by a user, may be a rotation speed obtained through a limited number of experiments, or may be a rotation speed obtained through a limited number of computer simulations, and is not specifically limited herein.
It should be understood that the ECU sends a virtual ignition signal to the ignition coil, and when the spark plug performs the skip fire action, the spark plug skips fire according to a certain frequency, a certain magnetizing time, a certain duration and a normal ignition cycle, such as a 4-cylinder engine, and the skip fire sequence is 1-3-4-2. The frequency f of the empty sparking is less than or equal to 40Hz, the hardware of the ignition system is evaluated, and the number of the empty sparking accounts for less than or equal to 5 percent of the total sparking, so that the use requirement of the reliability of related parts can be met; triggering 3 times of air spark every day, triggering at the ambient temperature of less than or equal to 0 ℃, calculating according to 4 months every year, increasing the spark number of single cylinder by 3X 1200X 120-432000 times every year, operating the whole vehicle for 30min every day, calculating the average rotating speed of 1800rpm, and igniting the single cylinder by 15X 60X 30-365-9855000 times every year; the proportion 432000/9855000 of the number of ignitions increased per cylinder per year is 4.4% < 5%, so that the sparking frequency f is regulated to be less than or equal to 40 Hz. The magnetizing time t2 is less than or equal to 2.8ms, the standard magnetizing time of a common ignition coil is about 3ms, and in order to prevent the ignition coil from being damaged in the process of air flashover, the magnetizing time of each time is set to t2 less than or equal to 2.8 ms. The ignition duration t3 is more than or equal to 30s, the insulation resistance of the spark plug is increased by 10 MOmega through testing, and the ignition duration t3 is more than or equal to 30s when the ignition duration is 30s, so that the carbon cleaning effect is ensured. Under the condition, the blank-fire process can be completed to the maximum extent under the condition that the storage battery is electrified, and the carbon deposit on the surface of the spark plug can be treated to the maximum extent.
It should be noted that different vehicle types can continue to lengthen the continuous flashover time according to the vehicle power-off delay time, the corresponding carbon removal effect is more obvious, but the power consumption in the ignition process needs to be calculated, and the power shortage of the storage battery cannot be caused.
Further, in some embodiments, the method of the embodiments of the present application, further includes: detecting vehicle parameters of a vehicle; and matching at least one of a blank jump condition, a preset ignition sequence and an exit condition according to the parameters of the whole vehicle.
