| Sumario: | [EN] This article proposes a method for fuel minimisation of a Diesel engine with constrained NOx emission in actual driving mission. Specifically, the methodology involves three developments: The first is a driving cycle prediction tool which is based on the space-variant transition probability matrix obtained from an actual vehicle speed dataset. Then, a vehicle and an engine model is developed to predict the engine performance depending on the calibration for the estimated driving cycle. Finally, a controller is proposed which adapts the start-of-injection calibration map to fulfil the NOx emission constraint while minimising the fuel consumption. The calibration is adapted during a predefined time window based on the predicted engine performance on the estimated cycle and the difference between the actual and the constraint on engine NOx emissions. The method assessment was done experimentally in the engine test set-up. The engine performace using the method is compared with the state-of-the-art static calibration method for different NOx emission limits on real driving cycles. The online implementation of the method shows that the fuel consumption can be reduced by 3%-4% while staying within the emission limits, indicating that the estimation method is able to capture the main driving cycle characterstics. |
