    Method and device for controlling a test bench arrangement
    The invention relates to a method and a device for regulating a test bench arrangement with a test object and with a loading machine, which is connected to the test object by a connecting shaft.
    In engine test benches in a supercritical arrangement, the test bench natural frequency is often stimulated by combustion processes in the individual cylinders of an internal combustion engine that have not yet been well coordinated (especially in engines that are still in the development stage). This can then be expressed, for example, by the occurrence of the 0.5th order in the torque curve, which can then excite the test bench natural frequency. The consequence of this resonance is an unnatural speed curve of the internal combustion engine. Such effects make clean calibration on the internal combustion engine difficult or calibration may prove to be impossible, for example in the event of misfire detection.
    Among other things, there is the problem that the disturbances caused in this way cannot be measured directly and are therefore not subject to regulation.
    It is the object of the present invention to provide methods and devices for test bench control with which such effects can be greatly reduced.
    WO2011 / 022746 describes a control method for a test bench arrangement, the internal torque of the internal combustion engine being ascertained on the basis of an evaluation of the angle of rotation in order to increase the control quality and is fed back into the control circuit using a repetitive control method. The disclosure of WO2011 / 022746 does not provide for attenuation of natural frequencies of the test bench arrangement.
    In real test bench environments, it is often not possible to measure certain measured variables, such as the angle of rotation, with sufficient accuracy. Either there are no sensors required for this in the state of the art or the high effort that the installation and use of known sensors would entail makes it impossible to use them. It is therefore a goal of the subject registration to enable damping of natural vibrations with the aid of the sensors usually present in the test bench.
    According to the invention, the objectives of the present application are achieved by a method of the type mentioned at the outset, in which an estimated value for the internal torque of the test object is determined, an attenuation signal being determined from the estimated value, taking into account a natural frequency to be damped and a delay, and fed back in the control loop , The feedback damping signal can, if necessary, be / 11 1
    AV-3873 AT a preferably adjustable gain can be set to an advantageous signal strength. This means that disturbances coming from the test object and which cannot be measured per se can be estimated and taken into account for the damping. The actual disturbance variable (in the case of an internal combustion engine test bench is the internal combustion torque) is used in the form of an estimate as an input to the control. With comparable devices, it was previously known to use a measured variable (e.g. a measuring flange torque, a test specimen speed, a load unit speed, etc.) as the controller input. However, these measurement variables often already contain the effects of the natural frequency excited by the disturbance and are not well suited as a controller input.
    The estimated value can advantageously be determined from the specimen angular velocity and the shaft torque. This simplifies the determination of the input values, since the sensors usually present in the test bench can be used.
    In an advantageous embodiment, when determining the damping signal, a band range comprising the natural frequency to be damped can be filtered out from the estimated value and the filtered signal can be delayed and amplified by a gain. Thus, due to the periodicity of the disturbance, an in-phase application of the damping energy can be traced back to the load unit.
    The parameters for the delay and / or the amplification and / or the band range can advantageously be determined in advance in a simulation. This shortens the test bench time required for the test run and prevents time-consuming parameterization due to trial and error.
    In a preferred embodiment, the delay can be a constant parameter. This allows a particularly simple implementation, for example using a FIFO memory parameterized with a constant delay. The phase advance of the disturbance variable takes place using the periodicity of the disturbance variable and constant natural frequency of the test bench arrangement. The delay can be optimally adapted to the system performance of the control loop.
    To implement the above method in an advantageous manner, the device mentioned at the outset according to the invention has a damping unit with an estimation unit and a filter, the estimation unit producing an estimate for the internal torque of the test specimen and the filter based on an estimated value to be damped and a delay creates a damping signal and feeds it back into the control loop.
    The estimation unit can advantageously determine the estimated value from the specimen angular velocity and the shaft torque. This allows the creation of an estimate without additional sensors.

    AV-3873 AT
    In a preferred embodiment, the estimation unit can have a Kalman filter, which allows the estimation value to be generated simply and quickly.
    In a further advantageous embodiment, the filter can have a delay element designed as a FIFO memory. This simplifies parameterization and allows the use of a constant parameter for the delay. Due to the periodicity of the fault, compensation of the system delay of the controlled system can be fed back into the manipulated variable.
    The test bench arrangement advantageously corresponds to a supercritical arrangement.
    The present invention is explained in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, which show exemplary, schematic and non-limiting advantageous embodiments of the invention. It shows

    2 shows a schematic representation of a mathematical model of a dual mass oscillator,
    3 shows a block diagram of an exemplary controller structure according to the invention and
    Fig. 4 is a block diagram of an active damping according to the invention.
    1 shows the essential components in a test bench in a schematic representation. A test object 1, for example an internal combustion engine, is connected via a connecting shaft 3 to a load machine 2, which applies a load torque to the test object according to a test run. The unit consisting of test object 1, load machine 2 and connecting shaft 3 is also referred to as a test bench arrangement 4 in connection with the present description.
    An automation system 5 determines control variables and specifies them to the test bench arrangement 4, for example a control variable for the loading machine torque T D of the loading machine 2 and a control variable for the pedal position α of the test object 1. The control variables are determined by an actuating device 6 of the loading machine 2 or one Actuating device 6 'of the test object 2 converted into the corresponding manipulated variables.
    The actual values of the controlled variables are determined by the automation system 5 via corresponding sensors, for example the actual values for the specimen angular velocity shown in FIG. 1, the loading machine angular velocity ω 0 , and the shaft torque T ST .
    The vibration behavior of the test bench arrangement 4 can be modeled mathematically as a dual mass oscillator, as shown in FIG. 2. In addition to the values defined above for the shaft torque T ST , the loading machine torque T D , the / 11 3 '

    DUT torque T E , the loading machine angular velocity ω 0 and the DUT angular velocity ω Ε the model still contains the shaft stiffness c, the shaft damping d, the DUT moment of inertia 0 E and the loading machine inertia 0 D , based on the natural frequencies of the system and the damping mathematical be determined.
    For a test bench arrangement 4, a unique natural frequency f 0 can usually be determined by modeling as a dual-mass oscillator. The dimensioning of the connecting shaft 3 is usually chosen so that this natural frequency is below the ignition frequency of the working area of a test object 1. The natural frequency lies in the range between the speed of the starter and the idle speed of the test object and is therefore only run briefly by the test bench 4 when the test object 1 is started. Such an arrangement is referred to as a "supercritical arrangement".
    As an example, consider a 4-cylinder engine with a working range of 600 to 6000 rpm. At 600 rpm there is an ignition frequency of 20Hz. For a supercritical arrangement, the shaft connection is therefore dimensioned such that a natural frequency of, for example, 15 Hz results for the test bench arrangement.
    In practical use, especially in test runs with prototypes that have not yet been tested, interference below the ignition frequency can also occur, which can also excite the natural frequency. For example, the natural frequency could be excited by a 0.5th order (the rotational frequency) of a disturbance generated by the device under test.
    In order to greatly reduce such effects, this description according to the invention discloses active damping, which is described below with reference to FIG. 3, part of the controller structure for the loading machine being shown schematically in FIG. 3.
    As the input of a speed controller 7, a control deviation is formed as the difference between a setpoint of the loading machine angular speed ω ο $ Ο ιι and the actual value of the loading machine angular speed ω 0 . On the basis of the control deviation, the speed controller 7 creates a control variable for the loading machine torque T D , which is transmitted to the test bench arrangement 4 (or to its actuating device 6 shown in FIG. 1). The control variable is corrected with a damping signal T Damp , which is determined by a damping unit 8 on the basis of the shaft torque T ST and the specimen angular velocity ω E.
    For this purpose, the damping unit 8 has an estimation unit 9, which determines an estimated value T E , est for an internal torque T E of the test object 1. The internal torque T E of the test object cannot be measured directly on the test bench and can therefore be regarded as a non-measurable disturbance variable of the control loop. However, this size is an essential size as Rege-45/11
    AV-3873 AT ventilation input variable for active damping, since it contains the excitation for the dual mass oscillator system.
    In order to produce the estimated value T E , est for the internal torque T E , the estimation unit 9 can have a Kalman filter which is optimized for the corresponding frequency range and the estimated value T E , est on the basis of the shaft torque T ST and the specimen angular velocity ω E determined. A filter unit 10 then converts the estimated value T E , est obtained from the estimation unit 9 into the damping signal T Damp .
    The filter unit 10 is shown schematically in more detail in FIG. 4. In the filter unit 10, the signal of the estimated value T E , est is first freed from the DC component by means of a high-pass filter 11. The subsequent low-pass filter 12 is optional and is only required if the higher alternating components in the manipulated variable for the load machine 2 exceed the limit values for the load machine 2. The high-pass filter 11 and the low-pass filter 12 can thus be regarded as a bandpass filter 13, which filters out a band range with the natural frequency to be damped from the signal of the estimated value T E , est .
    In order to compensate for the dead times, a delay is then applied to the signal in a delay element 14 and the signal is amplified in an amplifier 15 in order to obtain the damping signal T Damp in an amplitude which is optimal for the damping.
    In order to implement the delay (which can also be interpreted as a phase shift) in a simple manner, the delay element can be implemented as a FIFO memory with a constant (or parameterizable) length. A constant length is permissible because a specific and known frequency (the natural frequency) is to be damped. Furthermore, it is assumed that it is a periodic disturbance, which also agrees with test results and is also confirmed in the specialist literature.
    Under these assumptions, the following phase errors can be compensated for with the FIFO memory:
    - Systematic error, since the damping torque is not applied to the shaft but in the air gap of the load unit (90 ° phase error)
    - Phase errors that result from the non-zero phase response of various filter networks in the control or from dead times in the closed-loop control loop
    The optimum degree of damping can be set by means of a parameterizable amplification in the amplifier 15.

    AV-3873 AT
    Both the parameterizable value of the gain, as well as the delay or phase compensation can be determined in advance in a simulation of the test run and therefore do not have to be determined via trial & error.
