  • DESCRIPTION
  • The modern combustion engine appears to be a very complex system. The complexity growth may be driven namely by governmental legislation that restricts combustion engine emissions. Therefore, the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) may be forced to add various equipment items, sensors and actuators to the engine to achieve the prescribed limits and to optimize engine operating costs, e.g., fuel economy, urea consumption, and so forth. Under these conditions, an engine operation optimization and design of an optimal control system may be a challenging task.
  • Some approaches may incorporate optimizing the engine and individual aftertreatment systems involving, e.g., selective catalytic reduction (SCR), diesel oxidation catalysts (DOC), diesel particulate filter (DPF), and so on, separately. These approaches do not necessarily provide a systematic way of optimization. They may involve time consuming and expensive tasks. Furthermore, it is not necessarily ensured that their results will be optimal. There might be a better solution.
  • Another approach may be to optimize the engine together with the aftertreatment subsystem (AFS) as a one system. Such an approach may enable one to find the global optimal behavior of the engine with an aftertreatment subsystem from an economical and technical point of view while satisfying virtually all of the prescribed emission limits. The engine and aftertreatment subsystem may have appropriate sensors and actuators as needed to effect an optimization program for the engine and aftertreatment subsystem or subsystems as one system. The engine may be seen as an exhaust gas source for the aftertreatment subsystem. The properties of the engine out exhaust gas as sensed may be influenced within certain range by manipulating available engine actuators such as those of a turbocharger waste gate (WG), variable geometry turbocharger (VGT), exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), start of injection (SOI), throttling valve (TV), and so on. Various degrees of freedom may be used to prepare or modify the exhaust gas properties for optimal operation of the aftertreatment subsystem at virtually all of the engine operating points. For example, if the actual state of the aftertreatment subsystem does not enable a reduction of emissions due to low temperature as sensed in some operating regimes, then the engine actuators may be controlled to increase temperature so that the engine exhaust gas out emissions do not violate prescribed limits. On the other hand, if the state of the aftertreatment subsystem enables a reduction of a significant amount of pollutants, the engine actuators may be controlled in a way to also achieve the best fuel economy.
  • An engine optimization and control design may be formulated as a rigorous mathematical optimization problem. The present approach may offer a modular and systematic solution to the problem. The approach may incorporate dividing the engine and aftertreatment optimization and control design into two stages: (i) an off-line part and (ii) an on-line part (real-time).
  • (i) The off-line part may be formulated as a mathematical optimization problem with constraints (known as mathematical programming) and the results may be various engine maps prescribing setpoints and constraints for different kinds of measured variables from sensors and positions of virtually all engine actuators for virtually all major operating points or conditions of the engine, e.g., over the engine speed and torque map. Virtually all of the maps may be parameterized by various variables of the engine and aftertreatment system but may be also parameterized by measured fuel and/or urea consumption and corresponding costs, by their ratio, or other relevant economically related quantities. Information about actual market prices of fuel and other fluids used by the engine and aftertreatment system may be incorporated to parameterize the control system and may be used as a tuning parameter during the engine's lifetime. This approach may enable a slight tuning of the controller behavior when the prices of the fluids used are changed, which can ensure economically optimal operation of the engine in view of such changes during its lifetime.
