摘要:
A vehicle, a vehicle fuel reactant leak detection system, a computer program product, and a computer implemented method of detecting leakage of a fuel reactant from a vehicle. The vehicle includes one or more fuel cell modules, a fuel supply source to supply a fuel reactant to the one or more fuel cell modules via a high-pressure fuel supply line, a fuel supply valve configured to open and close fuel reactant flow through the high-pressure fuel supply line, and a computing device, operatively connected to the fuel supply source. The computing device includes one or more processors caused to conduct, in response to a detection as sensor data of pressure in the high-pressure fuel supply line when the vehicle engine is in a non-operating state, fuel pressure analysis of the sensor data, and detect, based on the fuel pressure analysis, leakage of the fuel reactant at the fuel supply valve.

Methods and systems are provided for a diagnostic of a pressure sensor. In one example, a method includes bypassing one or more vapor canisters and determining a condition of the pressure sensor based on feedback from a hydrocarbon sensor.

A vehicle method for barometric pressure identification, including adjusting engine operation responsive to barometric pressure, the barometric pressure based on a pressure change at a sector of the fuel system when the sector is sealed with the vehicle travelling. The method may utilize a pressure change at the sealed sector of the fuel system, such as a sealed fuel tank, to identify barometric pressure, even with the engine off for extended durations of vehicle travel. As such, in a hybrid-vehicle application, including during hill descents in which the engine is maintained off, barometric pressure can still be updated.

Methods and systems are provided for diagnosing sensors in an engine intake by utilizing in an evaporative leak check module pump (ELCM pump). In one example, during engine off conditions, the ELCM pump in an evaporative emission system of the vehicle may be operated in a pressure mode to flow ambient air from the evaporative emissions system to the intake manifold. During humidity sensor diagnostics, the air flow may be used to generate water vapors within the intake manifold, and humidity sensor may be rationalized by monitoring an output of the humidity sensor; and during MAF sensor diagnostics, MAF sensor may be rationalized by monitoring if the MAF sensor output corresponds to a flow rate generated by the ELCM.

A method and apparatus for field testing and diagnosing at least one NOx-sensor in a diesel engine exhaust system are disclosed. The field testing apparatus is connectable to a truck having a lean burn diesel type engine, via an on-board diagnostic connector. The field testing apparatus is arranged to initiate a test cycle, and to diagnose at least one NOx-sensor in an exhaust system of the truck. The test cycle is performed on a running engine as a test sequence in a stationary truck, in at least two different states of operation, while NOx related values issued by the at least one NOx-sensor are measured over a predefined period of time. At least one state of operation is obtained by simultaneously opening the exhaust gas recirculation valve and controlling the back pressure valve for increasing backpressure. A dedicated algorithm is used to compare the measured values to a predefined model, and to provide a numerical summary and statistical evaluation of the sensor functioning. The numerical summary being indicative of a likelihood of the at least one NOx-sensor behaving correctly, and thereby enables a well founded decision as to whether or not the at least one NOx-sensor requires replacement.

Embodiments for controlling fuel vapors are disclosed. In one example, a method comprises during a purge of a fuel vapor canister, adjusting a heater of the fuel vapor canister based on a rate of a purge flow exiting the fuel vapor canister and a concentration of hydrocarbons released from the fuel vapor canister. In this way, a fuel vapor canister purge efficiency may be increased.

Rate based monitoring includes performing test cycles on a monitored system when predetermined conditions are met. Completion of a test cycle is determined by timing a period that is at least as long as the longer of a time required to detect a correct operation of the monitored system and a time to detect a malfunction of the monitored system, the timing being reset if one or more of the predetermined conditions cease to be met. A count is kept of completed test cycles.
摘要:
A purge valve and a fuel vapor management system for use with an engine emission control system are disclosed. The purge valve may include a first inlet for receiving a first flow of air from an air cleaner, a second inlet for receiving a second flow of purge vapors from an evaporative canister, and an outlet directing a controlled mixture of the first and second flows to an engine, upstream of an intake throttle. Relative amounts of the first flow and second flow may be selectively controlled by varying a position of the valve.

A diagnosis device for an evaporated fuel processing device includes: a pump arranged to pressurize or depressurize a system including the fuel tank and the canister; at least one pressure sensor arranged to sense a pressure within the system; and a fuel temperature sensor arranged to sense a temperature of a fuel within the fuel tank, the diagnosis device being configured to select a first leakage diagnosis using a positive pressure or a negative pressure existing within the fuel tank, or a second leakage diagnosis using a forcible pressurization or a forcible depressurization by the pump, based on a temperature difference between a fuel temperature at a start of driving, and a fuel temperature after an end of the driving, with respect to a request of a leakage diagnosis.
