An O2 amount in the intake air is determined based on a fresh air and an EGR gas. A consumed O2 amount is determined with a command injection amount Qr. Then, the consumed O2 amount is subtracted from the O2 amount in the intake air to obtain an exhaust O2 amount. An exhaust O2 concentration is estimated based on the exhaust O2 amount. According to the invention, the system is not affected by a delay for the exhaust gas to reach an O2 sensor and a delay of the chemical reaction in the O2 sensor. Therefore, the exhaust O2 concentration can be highly precisely estimated compare to the case in which the exhaust O2 concentration is detected by the O2 sensor.

In a fuel infection valve, a valve chamber of a three ways valve is selectively communicated to drain and high pressure conduits and also communicated, via a main orifice, to a control chamber for controlling valve opening and closing operations of a nozzle needle. The control chamber may be communicated via the main orifice and the valve chamber to the drain conduit or the high pressure conduit, when a valve body is driven by a piezo actuator to open or close the drain conduit and close or open the high pressure conduit. The control chamber is always communicated via a sub orifice to the high pressure conduit without bypassing the three ways valve. Accordingly, hydraulic pressure in the control chamber is slowly decreased at a valve opening time and is rapidly increased at a valve closing time so that a lift characteristic of the nozzle needle is improved.

An air-fuel ratio control apparatus for an internal combustion engine which is equipped with an air-fuel ratio sensor for sensing an actual air-fuel ratio of a mixture to be introduced into the engine and a target air-fuel ratio setting section for setting a target air-fuel ratio of the engine. Also included is a controlled-amount calculating section for setting an optimal feedback gain on the basis of a predetermined dynamic model of the engine to calculate a controlled amount in accordance with the predetermined optimal feedback gain so that the actual air-fuel ratio becomes equal to the target air-fuel ratio. A fuel supply amount to the engine is determined on the basis of the calculated controlled amount, and the control responsiveness of the controlled-amount calculating section is suppressed when the engine is in a speed-decreasing state. This arrangement can adequately control the air-fuel ratio of the engine irrespective of the engine speed-decreasing state.

摘要:
An apparatus for measuring a flow of intake air to an engine includes a bridge circuit including a heat resistor placed in an intake air path of the engine, a resistor for sensing the temperature of the intake air, and a plurality of balance resistors. A heating current is supplied to this bridge circuit through a transistor controlled by a periodical current-passage control signal generated by a microcomputer. A signal Vh, representing a temperature change of the heat resistor heated by the heating current, is detected by the microcomputer. A first correction value is computed by using a difference between the detected value from the microcomputer and a signal Vho, representing temperature of the heat resistor when the bridge circuit is balanced at normal temperature. A time width correction value .DELTA.Do1 is computed from a table on the basis of the first correction value. The correction signal .DELTA.Do1 is used for correcting the current passage time. The current passage time width as corrected is used for computing a flow of the intake air.
