摘要:
A malfunction monitoring apparatus for a secondary air supply system of an internal combustion engine includes an air flow sensor (2) for measuring the flow rate of an air flowing into an intake air path of the engine, a secondary air introducing path (32) disposed in the intake air path on the downstream side of a measuring position of the air flow rate for taking in a part of the air through the intake air path as a secondary air, a secondary air supply device (8) for supplying the secondary air to an exhaust gas path, and a control unit (3). The apparatus may further includes a pressure sensor (14) for detecting the internal pressure of an intake manifold. The control unit determines a secondary air flow rate (Qs) from a difference between a first air flow rate (Qa) measured by the air flow sensor when the secondary air is not being supplied from the secondary air introducing path to the exhaust gas path and a second air flow rate (Qb) measured by the air flow sensor when the secondary air is being'supplied, or a difference between an intake air flow rate (Qpm) of the engine determined on the basis of the internal pressure of the intake manifold detected by the pressure sensor and an air flow rate (Qhw) measured by the air flow sensor when the secondary air is being supplied. In the case where the determined secondary air flow rate is out of a predetermined allowable range, the secondary air supply device is judged as being abnormal.

摘要:
The invention relates to an internal combustion engine with direct injection and supercharging in which the ignitability deteriorates because the density of the fuel at the spray center becomes excessive due to the shrinkage of the fuel spray under the supercharging. As a result, the density of the smoke and the hydrocarbon exhaust rate increase. The mixture of the fuel and the air under the supercharging is promoted by the control of a TCV installed in the suction port which is a divided spray and air flow generation mechanism and by the valve timing control of the suction and exhaust valve, etc.

摘要:
In a method of controlling a 4-stroke cycle internal combustion engine for automobile, when only a positional signal, which is generated each time the crank shaft of engine is rotated once, is first generated after the start of engine, only the fuel injection control is immediately made. When both the positional signal and a reference cylinder signal which is generated each time the crank shaft is rotated twice are generated after the start of engine, the fuel injection control and ignition control are made.
摘要:
A diagnostic system in which the accuracy of the diagnosis of the deterioration state of a catalyst (40 in Fig. 1) in a catalytic converter (4) for cleaning the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine (2) is enhanced without incurring a rise in cost. The temperature of the catalyst (40) is estimated using the operating-state signal (for example, the flow rate of intake air Q a or the width 120 of a fuel injection pulse) of the engine (2) by a diagnostic device (8). The conversion efficiency of the catalyst (40) calculated from the outputs of oxygen sensors (6a, 6b) is corrected using the estimated temperature by the diagnostic device (8). The deterioration state of the catalyst (40) is diagnosed on the basis of the corrected temperature by the diagnostic device (8).
