摘要:
An operating condition value is acquired at the time of internal combustion engine startup. If the acquired condition value is one of a plurality of reference condition values for which optimum values are defined, the optimum value for the reference condition value is set as a fuel injection amount. If, on the other hand, the acquired condition value is other than the reference condition values, an interpolated value, which is interpolation-calculated by using the relationship between the reference condition values and optimum values, is set as a fuel injection amount. The angular acceleration for fuel injection according to the interpolated value, which is a physical quantity related to the operating performance of an internal combustion engine, is then determined to correct the interpolated value in accordance with the difference between the actual angular acceleration and target angular acceleration.

The present invention provides a catalyst temperature control device to control a temperature of a catalyst which influences emission performance of an internal combustion engine. A plurality of temperature measurement points are disposed continuously or dispersedly at least in a flow path direction inside the catalyst. The temperature measurement points can include actual measurement points where temperature sensors are disposed, and virtual measurement points where temperature sensors are not disposed. A control point is selected from the plurality of temperature measurement points in accordance with operation conditions of the internal combustion engine, and a target value of the temperature of the catalyst is set. A manipulated variable of the internal combustion engine is determined based on a difference between the temperature at the control point acquired by actual measurement or estimation and the target value, and the internal combustion engine is operated in accordance with the determined manipulated variable.

A control apparatus of an internal combustion engine capable of appropriately reflecting various requests relating to the performance of the internal combustion engine. Specifically, the control device of the internal combustion engine acquires various requests relating to the performance of the internal combustion engine, and sets restricted ranges of the value of the control variable in accordance with the details of the requests. At this moment, the control device temporally changes the set restricted ranges for specific requests associated with the time integral value of the control variable rather than the instantaneous value of the control variable. Subsequently, the control device determines a final restricted range on the basis of the overlap between the restricted ranges set for each request, and determines the target value of the control variable in the final restricted range.

A exhaust catalyst temperature estimating apparatus is provided for estimating a exhaust catalyst temperature of a exhaust catalyst in which a catalyst is loaded on a support and arranged in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine. The exhaust catalyst temperature estimating apparatus estimates the exhaust catalyst temperature using a first model formula to calculate a current exhaust catalyst temperature of the exhaust catalyst based on a parameter corresponding to a current exhaust gas status. The first model formula is empirically determined such that a exhaust catalyst temperature that excludes heat generated by a chemical reaction is calculated for the parameter by using the support prior to being loaded with the catalyst, or is a physical formula of the support prior to being loaded with the catalyst such that a exhaust catalyst temperature excludes heat generated by a chemical reaction is calculated for the parameter.
摘要:
Disclosed is a control device that is used for an internal combustion engine and capable of making various requests concerning the performance of the internal combustion engine be reflected in a target control amount value while the requests need not be expressed in the form of a requested control amount value. The control device acquires various requests concerning the performance of the internal combustion engine and sets a request-specific constraint on a control amount value. More specifically, the control device expresses constraints to be set for control amount values as a set of constraint index values assigned to individual control amount values, and varies the distribution of the constraint index values assigned to the control amount values in accordance with the type of a request. Next, the control device integrates, for each control amount value, the constraint index values assigned to individual requests with respect to each control amount value. Then, in accordance with the distribution of the integrated constraint index value for a control amount, the control device determines a limitation of the control amount, which is defined by an upper-limit value and a lower-limit value. The control device determines a target control amount value within the determined limitation.

The fuel injection amounts into each cylinder are set on the assumption that a heavy fuel will be injected during the engine starting process, and a specific torque is allowed to be generated by combustion in a specific cylinder when a fuel with a specific property between those of the heaviest fuel and the lightest fuel is injected thereinto. When the torque generated in the specific cylinder is in a range at or around the specific torque, the property level of fuel to be injected during the engine starting process is determined to be in a level range at or around the specific property. When the torque generated in the specific cylinder is higher than the range around the specific torque, the property level is determined to be in a level range on the light fuel side of the level range around the specific property.

The constraint is expressed as a set of constraint index values assigned to individual control amount values, and the distribution of the constraint index values is varied in accordance with the type of a request. The control device integrates the constraint index values for each control amount value and then, in accordance with the distribution of the integrated constraint index value for a control amount, determines a limitation of the control amount. The control device determines a target control amount value within the limitation and controls the internal combustion engine in accordance with the target control amount.
