A method for estimating a cylinder air charge for an internal combustion engine includes determining a first volumetric efficiency corresponding to engine operation with an open exhaust gas recirculation valve, determining a second volumetric efficiency corresponding to engine operation with a closed exhaust gas recirculation valve, determining a cylinder air charge using a selected one of the first and second volumetric efficiencies.

A control system for a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system includes a conversion efficiency determination module, an ammonia slip determination module, and a diagnostic module. The conversion efficiency determination module determines a conversion efficiency of an SCR catalyst. The ammonia slip determination module determines an amount of ammonia slip across the SCR catalyst when the conversion efficiency is less than a predetermined threshold. The diagnostic module determines pass/fail statuses of a reductant supply and the SCR catalyst based on the amount of ammonia slip and at least one ammonia slip threshold.

A method that includes in-vehicle systems and practices for determining whether a NOx sensor in an exhaust stream is performing properly. The method uses the gain and/or the offset of the NOx sensor to determine its accuracy.
摘要:
Simultaneous or independent control of a by-pass valve and a variable-geometry forced induction component on a combustion engine is based on operational parameters measured by various sensors provided as inputs to a control module. Sudden loss of power due to low turbine efficiencies is prevented during transitions between operating conditions of engine speed and load. Excessive peak cylinder pressures are also prevented by controlling engine boost pressure to a permitted limit at high engine speed and load.

A method for indicating a non-urea reductant fault in a powertrain including an internal combustion engine and an aftertreatment system having an aftertreatment device utilizing a catalyst to convert NOx includes monitoring a NOx content exiting the aftertreatment system subsequent to a powertrain start-up event through a test span, monitoring a measure of NOx content entering the aftertreatment system subsequent to a powertrain start-up event through the test span, and determining a measure of NOx conversion accomplished in the aftertreatment device based upon the NOx content exiting the aftertreatment system and the measure of NOx content entering the aftertreatment system. The method includes, through the test span, comparing the measure of NOx conversion determined at a start of the test span to the measure of NOx conversion at a later time within the test span. A non-urea reductant fault is indicated based upon the comparing identifying a reduction in NOx conversion accomplished in the aftertreatment device between the start of the test span and the later time within the test span.

A reductant injector is configured to dispense a reductant into an exhaust gas feedstream of an internal combustion engine upstream of a selective catalytic reduction device. The reductant injector of a reductant injection system is monitored by generating injector pulsewidth commands corresponding to a prescribed reductant flowrate, monitoring the injector pulsewidth commands, verifying the prescribed reductant flowrate corresponds to the injector pulsewidth commands, monitoring a fluidic pressure in the reductant injection system, estimating a first injected quantity of the reductant corresponding to the injector pulsewidth commands, estimating a second injected quantity of the reductant corresponding to the fluidic pressure in the reductant injection system, and comparing the first and second injected quantities of reductant.

A method for controlling a direct-injection internal combustion engine includes monitoring internal combustion engine operational parameters, determining a start of injection in response to the engine operational parameters, monitoring an intake air flow comprising a residual gas component, monitoring an exhaust gas flow, monitoring a fuel flow, determining a time constant corresponding to an intake air flow reaction time based upon the intake air flow, the exhaust gas flow, and the fuel flow, modifying the start of injection with the time constant, and operating the engine subject to the modified start of injection.

A method for controlling a malfunction catalyst diagnostic test that determines a malfunction status of a catalyst within a selective catalytic reduction device includes monitoring an exhaust gas flow within an aftertreatment system, estimating an effect of the exhaust gas flow on an estimated reductant storage on a catalyst within the selective catalytic reduction device, and selectively disabling the malfunction catalyst diagnostic test based upon the estimating the effect of the exhaust gas flow on the estimated reductant storage.
