    摘要: A method for controlling an emergency unit of an internal combustion engine including the following steps: inputting a threshold value for an overspeed of the engine; detecting a second rotational speed of the engine with a second rotational speed sensor; checking the plausibility of the second rotational speed. The plausibility checking includes the following steps: inputting a first rotational speed detected by a first rotational speed sensor of an engine control unit; calculating a difference between the second rotational speed and the first rotational speed; comparing the difference with a recorded threshold value for the difference; in the event that the difference is smaller than the threshold value for the difference, emitting a plausibility signal. After receipt of the plausibility signal, the method includes inputting the second rotational speed; and using the second rotational speed for an activation process of the emergency unit according to the overspeed.

    摘要: Methods and systems are provided for preheating a fuel vapor storage canister in an evaporative emissions system prior to a vehicle start. In one example, a method may include learning common vehicle routes and identifying routes in which fuel vapor storage canister preheating is indicated, such as routes that will enable fuel vapors to be purged to an engine intake shortly after the vehicle start. Then, in anticipation of an identified route for fuel vapor storage canister preheating, a vehicle controller may be transitioned from a sleep mode to an awake mode prior to the vehicle start in order to commence a fuel vapor storage canister preheating routine.

    摘要: A post injection is utilized in a more effective manner. In an internal combustion engine which is provided with a fuel injection valve for injecting fuel into a cylinder of the internal combustion engine, in cases where a post injection is carried out after a main injection of fuel from the fuel injection valve, when a rotation speed of the internal combustion engine is equal to or more than a first predetermined speed, a penetration force of fuel in the post injection is made larger than a penetration force of fuel in the main injection, whereas when the rotation speed of the internal combustion engine is less than a second predetermined speed which is equal to or less than the first predetermined speed, the penetration force of fuel in the post injection is made smaller than the penetration force of fuel in the main injection.
