    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling the operation of a "lean-burn" internal combustion engine in co-operation with an exhaust gas purification system having an emissions control device capable of alternatively storing and releasing NO x when exposed to exhaust gases that are lean and rich of stoichiometry, respectively, determines a performance impact, such as a fuel-economy benefit, of operating the engine at a selected lean operating condition, with due consideration of the periodic rich operating condition necessary to release stored NO x from the device. The method and apparatus further determine a measure representative of the instantaneous NO x -storing efficiency of the device. The method and apparatus enable the selected lean operating condition as long as the determined performance impact and the determined device efficiency are each above respective predetermined minimum levels.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling the operation of a "lean-burn" internal combustion engine (12) in co-operation with an exhaust gas purification system having an emissions control device (34,36) capable of alternatively storing and releasing an exhaust gas constituent, such as NO x , when exposed to exhaust gases that are lean and rich of stoichiometry, respectively, wherein a measure of the efficiency of the device (34,36) to remove the exhaust gas constituent from engine exhaust gas is determined, and a purge event for releasing previously-stored NO x is initiated when the efficiency measure falls below a threshold value.
