摘要:
An object of the invention is to provide a thermal air flowmeter which can reduce a detection error occurring during pulsating air flow due to a difference of response between rising and falling of detected flow or due to air flow dependence of response. A thermal air flowmeter 1 includes a heat-generating resistor 7 which heats liquid, a heating drive circuit 5 which causes current to flow in the heat-generating resistor 7 and thereby controls heating of the heat-generating resistor 7, and a temperature-sensitive resistor 9 which detects a temperature of the fluid heated by the heat-generating resistor 7. The thermal air flowmeter 1 detects a flow Q of the liquid based on the amount of heat of the liquid heated by the heat-generating resistor 7. Further included are: flow correction value calculating means 17 which calculates a flow correction value ca based on a variation dQ/dt of the detected flow Q and on a flow correction coefficient a set dependent on the detected flow Q; and flow correction means 18 which corrects the detected flow Q based on the flow correction value ca.

An internal combustion engine control apparatus according to the present invention includes storage for storing a plurality of air flow rate conversion tables T1 and T2 used to convert a signal of a heating resistor 2 to an air flow rate, a selector for selecting a conversion table to be referred to from the plurality of conversion tables T1 and T2 stored, and a converter for converting a signal of the heating resistor into an air flow rate by referring to the conversion table selected by the selector. The selector performs selection of the conversion table according to a state value, which directly or indirectly indicates the state of air flow pulsation generated in a passage.

Disclosed here is a control unit employed for an internal combustion engine and provided with air flow sensor output correcting element capable of correcting a detected voltage error to occur in the air flow sensor according to a surge voltage and a supply voltage at each actuation of the thermal type air flow sensor. The thermal type air flow sensor output correcting element includes surge time measuring element for measuring a surge time in a value detected in the thermal type air flow sensor at the time of the sensor power on and supply voltage detecting means. The output correcting element thus calculates a warming-up characteristic correction amount for the thermal type air flow sensor according to the measured surge time and the detected supply voltage.
摘要:
A throttle valve controller for an internal combustion engine has a throttle valve driven by a motor. The target opening of the throttle valve is determined based on the operating state of the vehicle or internal combustion engine. A first lower limit is determined beforehand as the minimum target opening, and a second lower limit is set which is smaller than the first lower limit if the determined target opening is smaller than a predetermined opening and/or if the rotation speed of the internal combustion engine is lower than a predetermined speed.

An apparatus for controlling an internal combustion engine for a vehicle includes a driving condition detecting unit (1-13, 50, 72) detecting a driving condition of the internal combustion engine and outputting a driving condition value indicative of the driving condition, and a control unit (71). The control portion has an input circuit (116, 113, 119) inputting a driving condition value from the driving condition detecting unit, detecting the driving condition value and outputting as the driving condition detection value, a reference power source circuit (70) generating a reference voltage (Vcc) for operating the control apparatus (FIG. 2) on the basis of a battery voltage from a battery (50), and a unit (CPU 100) controlling the internal combustion engine on the basis of the driving condition detected value from the input circuit.
摘要:
An engine control unit is configured to detect the revolution of an engine and to obtain the intensity of both the first order component of revolution for every combustion (one cycle per combustion) and the second order component of revolution. The second order is twice as much as the first order component. The unit further obtains dispersion or deviation in these intensities. Thereby, it is possible to detect combustion conditions and to correct them to desirable conditions.
