摘要:
According to one implementation of an engine system, a power device is selectively actuated to provide energy to a storage device. Energy from the storage device is selectively provided to a boost assist device to supplement the normal energy supply to a boost device and enable an increased power output of the engine in at least certain engine or vehicle operating conditions. In one form, the power device may be a source of electrical energy and the storage device is capable of storing an electrical charge. In another form, the power device is a fluid pump and the storage device is capable of storing pressurized fluid. Various methods may be employed to control operation of the power device and energy storage in the storage device.

摘要:
One embodiment includes windmilling a boost assist device by passing intake air through the boost assist device during operating modes where the device is not required to be operated (i.e., is not being actively powered). The windmilling effect will cause the boost assist device to rotate due to the windmilling effects of the air. This windmilling effect normally may not achieve full boost assist device operating speeds, but it will normally be sufficient to allow the boost assist device to avoid the high energy usage initial speed up phase of operation when the boost assist device is called upon to be actively powered. In one embodiment of the invention the windmilling conserves energy used to drive the boost assist device.
摘要:
A method of controlling exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) in a turbocharged compression-ignition engine system including an engine, an induction subsystem in upstream communication with the engine, an exhaust subsystem in downstream communication with the engine, a high pressure EGR path between the exhaust and induction subsystems upstream of a turbocharger turbine and downstream of a turbocharger compressor, and a low pressure EGR path between the exhaust and induction subsystems downstream of the turbocharger turbine and upstream of the turbocharger compressor. A target total EGR fraction for compliance with exhaust emissions criteria is determined, then a target HP/LP EGR ratio is determined to optimize other engine system criteria within the constraints of the determined target total EGR fraction.

One embodiment may include a method of controlling exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) in a turbocharged compression-ignition engine system including a high pressure (HP) EGR path and a low pressure (LP) EGR path. The method may include determining a target total EGR fraction for compliance with exhaust emissions criteria, and determining a target HP/LP EGR ratio to optimize other engine system criteria within the constraints of the determined target total EGR fraction. The determining of the target HP/LP EGR ratio may include using at least engine speed and load as input to a base model to output a base EGR value, using at least one other engine system parameter as input to at least one adjustment model to output at least one EGR adjustment value, and adjusting the base EGR value with the at least one EGR adjustment value to generate at least one adjusted EGR value.
