摘要:
If an amount of fuel is not increased and a direct injection air-fuel ratio learning has not been completed, fuel injection from a port fuel injection valve is stopped without executing EGR, fuel injection control is executed such that the fuel injection occurs only from an in-cylinder fuel injection valve, and the direct injection air-fuel ratio learning is executed. If the amount of the fuel is increased, the fuel injection from the port fuel injection valve is stopped without executing EGR and air-fuel ratio feedback control, and an engine and an EGR valve are controlled such that fuel injection occurs only from the in-cylinder fuel injection valve.

A hybrid vehicle according to one of embodiments of the present invention applies, to a drive axel, a torque equal to a user requesting torque determined based on an accelerator operation amount, by controlling a torque generated by an engine and a torque generated by an electric motor while adjusting a power generated by the engine in such a manner that an engine efficiency becomes optimum (i.e., while operating the engine at an optimum engine operation point). Further, the vehicle controls an electric power generated by a first motor generator by varying the power generated by the engine based on a remaining capacity of the battery so as to charge the battery. In addition, the vehicle controls the air-fuel of the engine to a rich air-fuel ratio when a predetermined condition is not satisfied, and to a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio when the predetermined condition is satisfied. When the air-fuel ratio of the engine is controlled to be the rich air-fuel ratio, the vehicle sets an upper limit (engine output power upper limit) of the power generated by the engine to a value smaller than a value when the air-fuel ratio of the engine is controlled to be the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.

After an engine stop duration exceeds a predetermined time period (that is, if a decision outcome of S100 is positive), diagnosis of a leakage mechanism, which is a relief valve, for diagnosing the presence/absence of an abnormality is not performed during a current engine stop (S102). Therefore, even if the fuel pressure in the high-pressure fuel system is reduced to a low-pressure level due to temperature decrease as though fuel has been leaked in a state in which high-pressure fuel in a high-pressure fuel system cannot be leaked due to an abnormality in the relief valve, it generally occurs after the predetermined time period since such a decrease to a low-pressure level due to the temperature decrease is slow. Thus, an erroneous diagnosis as being normal is prevented from being made since the diagnosis has been suspended when the fuel pressure becomes equal to the low-pressure level.

In a hybrid vehicle including an engine provided with a plurality of VVTs (variable valve timing mechanisms) as one motive power source, an ECU increments a time lapse counter when a sensor detects the fact that a greatest-retard command has been output to all VVTs and an operation position of each VVT has actually returned to a greatest-retard position in response to the greatest-retard command. The ECU determines whether count by the time lapse counter has exceeded a predetermined defined time or not, and it does not permit engine stop until count by the time lapse counter reaches the predetermined defined time and permits engine stop when count by the time lapse counter has exceeded the predetermined defined time.

A power output apparatus includes a control unit that controls an internal combustion engine, a generator, and an electric motor such that a required driving force is output to a drive shaft. The control unit learns an idle control amount, which is a control amount obtained during an idle operation of the internal combustion engine, in accordance with establishment of a predetermined learning condition when a rotation variation amount of the drive shaft is within a predetermined range including a value of zero, and does not learn the idle control amount when the rotation variation amount of the drive shaft is not within the predetermined range.
摘要:
On incompletion of port learning, an auto stop-permitting water temperature is set to a temperature which is higher than a temperature set on completion of the port learning and is higher than a port injection temperature as an upper limit temperature that enables an engine to be driven in a port injection drive mode. This arrangement increases the opportunity of continuing the operation of the engine with fuel injection from a port fuel injection valve without an auto stop, thus increasing the opportunity of the port learning.

If an ECU of a hybrid vehicle receives an EV request signal from an EV switch, the ECU determines whether an intermittency prohibition operation for emission deterioration prevention is in progress. The EV request signal indicates that a driver requests EV running using only a motor. If the ECU determines that the intermittency prohibition operation for the emission deterioration prevention is in progress, the ECU does not allow the EV running request from the driver but operates the engine continuously. Thus, the emission deterioration of the hybrid vehicle can be inhibited appropriately.
摘要:
In a vehicle equipped with both an engine and a motor as the driving power source, in the event of incompletion of learning a control demand for regulation of an idling rotation speed of the engine, intermittent operation prohibition control of the invention permits intermittent operation of the engine under the setting of a gearshift lever to a parking position. The intermittent operation prohibition control of the invention prohibits the intermittent operation of the engine, on the other hand, under the setting of the gearshift lever to a drive position. This arrangement avoids the continuous operation of the engine against the driver's expectation, while prohibiting the intermittent operation of the engine to ensure the opportunity of learning the control demand for regulation of the idling rotation speed of the engine.
