摘要:
A method of initiating a neutral tow feature in a four-wheel drive vehicle. To initiate the neutral tow feature, an input signal is received from at least one signal generating device. Thereafter, it is determined if the at least one signal indicates that a precondition has been met. If the precondition has been met, then the neutral tow feature is automatically engaged.

A method and system for fuel delivery to an engine (400) measures when an exhaust gas sensor (413) is in a non-lit-off condition and when the exhaust gas sensor is in a lit-off condition. A control device (409) estimates fuel puddle dynamics for an intake system of the engine when the exhaust gas sensor is in the lit-off condition, and adapts (511) an open-loop fuel parameter table (229) dependent on the estimated fuel puddle dynamics. The control device (409) adjusts fuel delivery to the engine dependent on the fuel puddle dynamics when the exhaust gas sensor is in the lit-off condition, and adjusts fuel delivery to the engine dependent on the open-loop fuel parameter table (229) when the exhaust gas sensor is in the non-lit-off condition.
摘要:
The catalyst control method of the invention continuously estimates a level of oxygen stored by a catalyst within a catalytic converter. The estimated oxygen stored by the catalyst is compared to a predetermined threshold and positive or negative deviations in the oxygen amount from the threshold is determined. When a positive deviation from the threshold amount is detected, the air/fuel ratio flowing into an engine (16) is decreased. Correspondingly, when a negative deviation is detected, the air/fuel ratio flowing into the engine (16) is increased. The amount of oxygen stored by the catalyst is determined by analyzing signals from a first gas sensor (28) positioned upstream from a catalytic converter (34) and a second gas sensor (30) positioned downstream from the catalytic converter (34). An engine control unit (10) integrates an expression for the mass flow rate of excess oxygen into the catalytic converter (34). Engine control unit (10) applies a change in air/fuel ratio to maintain the oxygen level on the catalyst within the catalytic converter (34) at a desired level.
摘要:
A method for monitoring and controlling the performance of a catalytic converter (34) includes monitoring an exhaust gas stream from an engine (16) for the presence of methane. Upon detecting methane in the exhaust gas stream an oxygen storage level of a catalyst within the catalytic converter (34) is determined. The oxygen storage level is compared with a reference standard and the air/fuel ratio of the exhaust gas stream is continuously adjusted to maintain the oxygen storage level within predetermined control limits.

A method and system for adaptive transient fuel compensation in a cylinder of a multi-cylinder engine estimates fuel puddle dynamics for the cylinder by determining parameters of a wall-wetting model every engine cycle of the multi-cylinder engine. Fuel delivery to the cylinder is adjusted dependent on the estimated fuel puddle dynamics.
摘要:
A method and system for adaptive transient fuel compensation in an engine (300) estimates fuel puddle dynamics for a cylinder in an engine by determining parameters of a wall-wetting model on every engine cycle by measuring a temporal delay (407) between when an identification fuel charge is injected (405) and when a binary-type exhaust gas oxygen sensor (213) switches state. Fuel delivery to the cylinder is adjusted (417) dependent on the estimated fuel puddle dynamics which are a function of the measured temporal delay (407).
摘要:
A method and system for adaptive transient fuel compensation in a cylinder of an engine (300) estimates a fraction of fuel evaporated in a fuel intake system of the engine (b.sub.v) by measuring a temporal delay (515) between when an identification fuel charge is injected (505) and when a binary-type exhaust gas oxygen sensor (315) switches state. An estimate of a fraction of fuel adhering to the fuel intake system of the engine (c) is derived from the estimate of evaporation wall-wetting parameter (b.sub.v). Fuel delivery to the engine is adjusted dependent on the estimates of the adhering wall-wetting parameter (c) and the evaporation wall-wetting parameter (b.sub.v).
