Based on the above problems, the present application provides a method for preventing carbon deposition on a spark plug, which generates a virtual ignition signal if a vehicle meets an idle sparking condition after an engine is stopped, and executes an idle sparking operation on the spark plug according to a certain ignition sequence based on the virtual ignition signal, and cleans carbon deposition in the spark plug by using a generated spark arc, and stops the idle sparking operation after a withdrawal condition is met. Therefore, the problem that the normal operation of the engine is possibly influenced by the additional ignition of the engine in the power stroke of the engine at the initial starting stage of the engine and the specific ignition moment is solved, the spark plug can be cleaned after the engine is stopped, the cleaning degree of the spark plug is improved, a good ignition basis is provided for the next normal starting, and the failure rate of the cold starting flooding problem is reduced.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the method for preventing carbon deposition of a spark plug according to an embodiment of the present application includes the steps of:
step S101, after the engine is stopped, judging whether the vehicle meets an empty spark condition, wherein the empty spark condition comprises that the last operation time of the engine is in a preset time interval.
The preset duration interval can be a duration interval preset by a user, can be a duration interval obtained through limited experiments, can also be a duration interval obtained through limited computer simulation, and is not particularly limited herein. Preferably, the preset time period is 1-30 minutes.
Specifically, the embodiment of the application can delay the power-OFF of the main relay after the vehicle is turned to the OFF gear for flameout, and if the ECU (Electronic Control Unit, the electronic control unit) monitors that the engine rotation speed is 0 (namely, the engine is stopped) and the last operation time of the engine is within 1 to 30 minutes (different vehicle types can adjust the last operation time range according to the water temperature rise time), the idle spark condition is judged to be met.

Further, the air-strike condition further includes: the ignition system of the vehicle has no fault; the current voltage of the storage battery is greater than a first preset voltage.
The first preset voltage may be a voltage preset by a user, may be a voltage obtained through limited experiments, or may be a voltage obtained through limited computer simulation, and preferably, the first preset voltage is 12.5V.
That is, in the embodiment of the present application, after the engine is stopped, when determining whether the vehicle satisfies the idle spark condition, it is also necessary to determine the ignition system of the vehicle. That is, after the vehicle is turned OFF when the OFF gear is turned OFF, the main relay is delayed to be turned OFF, if the ignition system is not failed, and the ECU monitors that the engine speed is 0, the battery voltage is greater than 12.5V, the last operation time of the engine is within 1 to 30 minutes (the last operation time range can be adjusted according to the water temperature rise time for different vehicle types), and the environment temperature is lower than 0 ℃ and the water temperature is lower than 70 ℃, then it is determined that the idle spark condition is satisfied.
In addition, as shown in fig. 3, the function of empty spark ignition is considered to be mainly applied to the normal working period (the insulation resistance is more than or equal to 10MΩ) of the spark plug, the analysis is carried out according to the resistance change in the spark ignition process of the insulation resistance of the spark plug more than 10MΩ, the insulation resistance of the spark plug is increased by less than 30 seconds when the spark plug is used, and the single-cylinder spark ignition times are 1200 times. Step S102, when the vehicle meets the empty spark condition, a virtual ignition signal is generated.
That is, if the vehicle satisfies the idle spark condition, the ECU may issue a virtual ignition signal to the ignition coil, performing the idle spark action of the spark plug.
And step S103, based on the virtual ignition signal, performing an idle spark action on the spark plug according to a preset ignition sequence, cleaning carbon deposition in the spark plug by utilizing the generated spark arc, and stopping the idle spark action after the exit condition is met.
Further, in some embodiments, performing a skip fire action on the spark plug in a preset firing order includes: and controlling 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 40Hz; the preset cleaning and magnetizing time is less than or equal to 2.8ms; the preset cleaning duration is longer than or equal to 30s.
Wherein, in some embodiments, the exit condition comprises: the duration time of the idle spark is longer than the preset duration time; or the current voltage of the storage battery is smaller than or equal to a second preset voltage; or, the ignition system fails; or, vehicle start (e.g., triggering vehicle Key-ON gear); alternatively, the rotational speed of the engine is greater than a preset rotational speed (e.g., the preset rotational speed is 0).
The preset ignition sequence can be a sequence preset by a user, can be obtained through limited experiments, and can also be obtained through limited computer simulation; the preset time length can be a time length preset by a user, can be a time length obtained through limited experiments, and can also be a time length obtained through limited computer simulation; the second preset voltage can be a voltage preset by a user, can be a voltage obtained through limited experiments, or can be a voltage obtained through limited computer simulation; the preset rotation speed may be a rotation speed preset by a user, may be a rotation speed obtained through limited experiments, or may be a rotation speed obtained through limited computer simulation, which is not particularly limited herein.
It should be understood that the ECU sends a virtual ignition signal to the ignition coil, and when the ignition plug performs an idle spark action, the spark is performed according to a normal ignition cycle, such as a 4-cylinder machine, with an idle spark order of 1-3-4-2, at a certain frequency, for a certain magnetizing time, for a certain duration. The frequency f of the empty spark is less than or equal to 40Hz, the hardware evaluation of the ignition system is carried out, the number of the empty spark is less than or equal to 5 percent of the total number of the spark, and the reliability use requirement of related parts can be met; according to the triggering of 3 times of air flashovers per day, the triggering of the environmental temperature is less than or equal to 0 ℃, the calculation is carried out according to 4 months each year, the number of the single-cylinder annual increase flashovers is 3 x 1200 x 120 = 432000, the calculation is carried out according to 30 minutes of the whole vehicle per day, the average rotating speed is 1800rpm, and the number of the single-cylinder ignition is 15 x 60 x 30 x 365 = 9855000 times each year; the number of ignition per cylinder increases per year by a ratio 432000/9855000=4.4% <5%, thus prescribing a spark-over frequency f < 40Hz. The magnetizing time t2 is less than or equal to 2.8ms, the standard magnetizing time of the common ignition coil is about 3ms, and in order to prevent the ignition coil from being damaged in the air spark process, the magnetizing time of each time is set to be less than or equal to 2.8ms. The ignition duration t3 is more than or equal to 30s, and the insulation resistance of the spark plug is increased by 10MΩ and the time is 30s through testing, so that the ignition duration t3 is more than or equal to 30s for ensuring the carbon deposit removal effect. Under the condition, the air spark process can be completed to the maximum extent under the condition that the storage battery is electrified, and carbon deposition on the surface of the spark plug is processed to the maximum extent.
It should be noted that, different vehicle types can continue to lengthen the continuous spark-over time according to the power-down delay time of the whole vehicle, the more obvious the corresponding carbon deposit removal effect is, but the power consumption in the ignition process needs to be calculated, and the power consumption of the storage battery cannot be caused.
