摘要:
The invention is directed to a method for checking the operability of a conduit system conducting a fluid flow. The conduit system is for an internal combustion engine and utilizes two fluids having temperatures which are different from each other. In this way, it is possible to set quite well-defined measuring conditions. The fluid flow in the conduit system to be checked is coupled to the temperature sensor in such a manner that the temperature thereof changes with a relatively steep gradient when, starting at a specific time point, the above-mentioned fluid operates to warm the temperature sensor. When the magnitude of the gradient remains below a threshold value, the conduit system checked is evaluated to be operational. The measurement is reliable even though it requires only a single temperature sensor.

A method is disclosed for obtaining output values for actuating a tank venting valve connected to the intake pipe of an internal combustion engine. A control factor is supplied by a lambda controller computing step and modifies a loading factor until a regenerating fuel quantity leading to no deviation from the lambda desired value is supplied via the tank venting valve. The controlled loading factor modifies precontrol values for the regenerating fuel quantity which is supplied in an operating condition. The method takes into consideration the pressure conditions at the tank venting valve. This makes it possible to place the opening of the tank venting pipe into the intake pipe of an internal combustion engine behind the throttle flap where there is a great negative pressure, which, however, can fluctuate within wide limits. The method takes into consideration these fluctuations within a precontrolled system with superposed control which makes it possible to operate with high regenerating gas flows and, nevertheless, reliable operation. An apparatus for carrying out the method of the invention is also disclosed.

The invention is directed to a method for controlling the no-load speed of an internal combustion engine wherein the position of the throttle flap in the intake tube of the engine is varied as a function of the speed of the engine and of a position signal defining the position of the throttle flap. The variation of the throttle flap position takes place, however, only whenever the throttle flap has assumed a specific, predeterminable position and whenever the engine speed has remained virtually constant over a likewise predeterminable period of time. An embodiment in the form of a flow chart is described by means of which the method according to the invention can be realized.

A starting control for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines is suggested in which an injection time (te.sub.VER), which is dependent on the engine starting temperature (T.sub.MS), is determined in the starting phase. In the starting phase, this injection time (te.sub.VER) follows the curve of special starting characteristic lines. A continuous transition to performance characteristics injection time (te.sub.KF) is effected by means of a comparator. A smooth transition from the starting phase to normal operation is obtained in this way.

Disclosed is a method of and a device for controlling a burn-off function of a measuring resistor, particularly heated wire or heated film in an air flow sensor of an internal combustion engine. The burn-off operation for fast cleaning the measuring resistor is normally made either periodically or in response to preset operational conditions of the engine. The invention interrupts this burn-off function when detrimental operational condition of the engine depending on the rotary speed has occurred. The stoppage of the burn-off function preferably occurs after a simultaneous detection of a predetermined temperature value detected by a sensor.
摘要:
A device for air flow rate measurement in the air intake tube of an internal combustion engine which has at least two temperature-dependent resistors in different branches of a bridge circuit having closed-loop electric current control, and which is characterized in that the temperature-dependent resistors are embodied as hot wires, that a temperature above the aspirated air temperature is selected for both hot wires, and that the difference of the hot wire temperatures is held to a constant value. The purpose of the device is to provide air flow rate measurement which is as error-free as possible, even when the aspirated air temperature is fluctuating rapidly. An identically embodied suspension and fastening of the individual hot wires is given as an example for the spatial disposition of the individual hot wires in the air intake tube.

An arrangement for lambda control operates on an internal combustion engine (11) comprising a catalytic converter (12) and a lambda probe (13.v) mounted in front of the catalytic converter and a lambda probe (13.h) mounted behind the catalytic converter. The arrangement integrates by means of an integration means (15) the difference between the actual lambda value measured by the rear probe and the lambda desired value to which controlling is to be effected. The integration value is used as control desired value for a means (16) for lambda control. This arrangement and the associated method make it possible to control to the actually wanted lambda desired value even if the front lambda probe carries out incorrect measurements, for example because of hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas in front of the catalytic converter or, in the case of continuous-action control, faulty linearization of the probe characteristic.
摘要:
A method for the adaptation of a precontrolled value for a feedback control is based on the realization that, whenever the operating conditions coincide with the calibration conditions for the initial determining of precontrolled values, no control-manipulated variable deviations may occur in all the operating ranges, and that accordingly deviations which are nevertheless observed are a sign that the calibration conditions no longer exist. This may be caused by aging effects or by uncompensated disturbances. The method establishes the differences in control-manipulated variable deviations over different classes of an influencing variable. For each influencing variable class, a correction value is then determined such that, by means of the correction value, the error previously observed for the respective range is compensated during operation of the controlled system. The method makes possible an accurate adaptation range by range in an off-line method and is therefore suitable in particular for the precontrolling feedback control of the lambda value of an internal combustion engine. An apparatus for carrying out the method is also disclosed.
摘要:
A control system for controlling the air/fuel ratio in an internal combustion engine 10, in which an oxygen probe (lambda probe) 13 is arranged in the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine 10, has a control device 12 for continuous control. The actual value of the air ratio lambda is determined via a measured probe output voltage in conjunction with an at least approximately predetermined probe-characteristic relationship 16 between the value of the probe output voltage and the value of the air ratio lambda associated therewith. After forming the difference of desired value and actual value of the air ratio lambda, the air/fuel ratio is controlled on the basis of this difference. Such a control system is used primarily in order to reduce the total emission of the main pollutant components of the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine. In particular in the case of an internal combustion engine 10 with catalytic converter arranged in the exhaust gas, a maintenance of the air ratio lambda as accurate as possible necessary for optimum efficiency of the catalytic converter (lambda=1) is assured.
