Abstract:
A method for controlling a dual fuel engine system includes determining a friction power loss amount of an internal combustion engine of the dual fuel engine system, where the friction power loss amount is based on an engine speed of the internal combustion engine and a friction torque estimate. The method also includes determining an accessory power loss amount of a power of the internal combustion engine, where the accessory power loss amount is based on the engine speed and an accessory torque estimate. The method further includes estimating a net engine power amount based on the accessory power loss amount and a brake power amount of the internal combustion engine, estimating an indicated diesel power, and estimating, based on the estimated net engine power, a first indicated engine power and a first gas power.
