摘要:
A method of controlling the start of combustion is a HCCI internal combustion engine whereby a target start of combustion is determined as a function of engine speed and load, and the actual start of combustion, calculated using the measured in-cylinder pressure, is adjusted by means of a feed forward control loop to the target value.

The present invention relates to a method for determining and regulating the crank angle position of a crankshaft of a four-stroke internal combustion engine with at least one cylinder which is controlled by an engine control unit (ECU), comprising the following steps ■ ascertaining the crank angle of the crankshaft by means of a crankshaft sensor, which scans the crankshaft, in particular a toothed wheel attached to the crankshaft, ■ determining the present phase of the respective operation cycle of said at least one cylinder by using at least one second sensor in order to distinguish between gas inlet and expansion stroke or gas outlet and compression stroke, and ■ synchronising the engine if necessary. It is the objective of the present invention to provide a method of the above mentioned kind which does not require fuelling the engine during the synchronization procedure. With respect to the objective a method is provided comprising the following steps: ■ using at least one pressure sensor as said at least one second sensor which is capable of detecting directly or indirectly a change of the in-cylinder pressure, in particular a rise of the in-cylinder pressure, ■ measuring at least once the output signal p Sensor,A of said at least one pressure sensor in a first crank angle domain comprising the top dead centre (TDC), ■ measuring at least once the output signal p Sensor,B of the at least one pressure sensor in a second crank angle domain spaced apart from said first crank angle domain , ■ calculating the expression p = pSensor,A - P Sensor , B , ■ comparing p with a predetermined threshold P threshold , ■ synchronizing the engine by shifting the output signal of the ECU for injection and/or ignition by 360°CA forwards or backwards, if

The present invention relates to a method for automatically adapting lookup tables. It is the objective of the present invention to provide a method for automatically adapting lookup tables, which overcomes the problems arising by using conventinal methods, in particular to improve the adaptation of point-based lookup tables. With respect to the object a method for automatically adapting lookup tables is provided, wherein the lookup table is a one-dimensional or multi-dimensional point-based lookup table with n ≥ 1 indexing parameters as input data and in which the output data are stored at the points, and which is characterised in that ■ a value domain Δ x for each indexing parameter x is assigned to each point of the point-based lookup table, where said value domain Δ x comprising said respective point, such that each point is surrounded by said value domain Δ x , and ■ the output data is adapted if the operation point defmed by the input data leads to a location in the lookup table which lies inside a value domain Δ x , and ■ the output data is interpolated if the operation point defined by the input data leads to a location in the lookup table which lies outside a value domain Δ x ,i.e., between the values domains Δ x .

The invention concerns a method of and an apparatus for controlling the operation of an internal combustion engine, wherein the internal combustion engine has a multi-turbocharger system having at least two turbochargers. A method according to the invention has the following steps: ascertaining at least one turbocharger speed signal and switching over between a mono-turbocharger mode in which only the first turbocharger is active and a bi-turbocharger mode in which the first turbocharger and the second turbocharger are active, on the basis of the turbocharger speed signal.

The present invention relates to a method for monitoring combustion stability of an internal combustion engine equipped with a crankshaft, an intake manifold and at least one cylinder. It is the object of the present invention to provide a method of the above mentioned kind which overcomes the problems known from the state of the art, in particular a method which is suitable for online calculation. With respect to the object a method is provided comprising the following steps: ■ determining the absolute deviation e of indicated mean effective pressure p ind or indicated torque T ind with respect to their actual set point, i.e., with respect to actual indicated mean effective pressure set point p ind,setpt or actual indicated torque set point T ind, setpt , namely Δp ind or ΔT ind , or alternatively determining the relative change Δ e in said deviation between two consecutive combustion cycles k, k+1 of said at least one cylinder, i.e., determining (Δp ind,k+1 - Δp ind,k ) or (ΔT ind,k+1 - ΔT ind,k ) or determining the relative change Δe in angular acceleration ω' of the crankshaft between two consecutive combustion cycles k, k+1, i.e., (Δω' k + 1 - Δω' k ), and ■ comparing said determinated deviation e or said change Δ e with a predetermined engine operating point dependent threshold e threshold or Δe threshold in order to decide if the combustion is stable or not by means of the following inequalities: e > e threshold or Δe > Δe threshold means combustion is not stable , e ≤ e threshold or Δe ≤ Δe threshold means combustion is stable . The method is preferably applied to homogeneous charge combustion ignition engines (HCCI).
