    Abstract: In some examples, a system including one or more processors may receive sensor data from one or more sensors indicating one or more engine parameters of an engine including a combustion chamber. Based on the sensor data, the system may determine a homogeneity index indicative of a homogeneity of an air-fuel mixture within the combustion chamber. Furthermore, the system may determine an estimated amount of NOx in the exhaust gas based at least in part on the homogeneity index. In addition, based at least partially on the estimated amount of NOx in the exhaust gas, the system may send an instruction to control an engine component.

    Abstract: Torque fluctuations caused by misfire and abnormal combustion are prevented appropriately at the time of switching from SI to HCCI, and exhaust of NOx is restricted at the time of switching.Provided is a control apparatus for an internal combustion engine performing a plurality of combustion modes each having a different air-fuel ratio and compression end temperature in a cylinder 7 from each other. In the middle of switching from a first combustion mode to a second combustion mode, an intermediate combustion mode in which the compression end temperature is increased while keeping a different air-fuel ratio from the air-fuel ratio of the first combustion mode and the air-fuel ratio of the second combustion mode is performed. Accordingly, at the time of switching between an operation mode performing SI and an operation mode performing HCCI, a temperature in the cylinder 7 and an air-fuel ratio are controlled appropriately, torque fluctuations caused by misfire and abnormal combustion can be prevented appropriately, and exhaust of NOx can be restricted.

    Abstract: Provided is a fuel injector that is capable of reducing penetration. The fuel injector of the present invention includes a valve body having a valve body side seat surface, a valve seat side seat surface that abuts on the valve body side seat surface, and an injection hole that is provided downstream of a position at which the valve body side seat surface abuts on the valve seat side seat surface. The valve body has a projection that is formed from the valve body side seat surface toward the injection hole, and the projection is formed to be smaller in a direction of fuel flow between seats than a radius of an upstream opening surface of the injection hole.
