    摘要: The invention relates, in particular, to the checking of the conversion of a precatalyzer associated with internal combustion engines. The checking being carried out during the overrunning of the motor vehicle given a sufficiently long idling phase. The following criteria being evaluated singly or in combination to determine if the catalyzer is operative. The first criteria checked is the difference between the temperature downstream and upstream of the catalyzer (FIG. 2). The second criteria checked is if the temperature downstream of the catalyzer is in a predetermined range (FIG. 3). The third criteria checked is if the temperature downstream and upstream of the catalyzer exhibits a minimum difference (FIG. 4). The fourth criteria checked is if the magnitude of the temperature gradient for the temperature upstream of the catalyzer is significantly greater than the magnitude of the temperature gradient of the temperature downstream from the catalyzer.

    摘要: In a method for checking the conversion capability of a catalytic converter, in particular a precatalytic converter associated with internal combustion engines of motor vehicles, the checking is undertaken through the use of a temperature measurement immediately downstream of the catalytic converter. Initially the temperature at the beginning and at the end of a predetermined idling phase is measured for a predetermined number of idling phases, following an overrun phase in predetermined operating states of a motor vehicle with an internal combustion engine. Then the difference of the temperature measurements for each idling phase is formed. The sum of all of the temperature differences and the sum of the duration of the idling phases are formed and subsequently a quotient of these results is formed. This quotient determines an average gradient. The average gradient determined in this way is compared with a limiting value and the catalytic converter is recognized as defective if the predetermined limiting value is exceeded. The method may be applied to motor vehicles with internal combustion engines.

    摘要: During a first driving cycle, a combustion process is controlled in at least one combustion chamber for the purpose of performing a check on an emission reduction system of an internal combustion engine. During a second driving cycle following the first cycle, a check is performed to establish whether an error in the emission reduction system was detected during the first cycle. An idle time between the first and the second cycles is determined, in the event of an error of the emission reduction system detected during the first cycle. During the second cycle, the combustion process in the at least one combustion chamber is only controlled for the purpose of the check on the emission reduction system, in the event of an error detected in the emission reduction system during the first cycle and in the event of the idle time being longer than a pre-determined repair time.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method which is characterized in that before an active catalyst diagnosis is carried out the mixture is dynamically trimmed for all individual catalysts using a signal of a lambda sensor common to the individual catalysts. Once the mixture is successfully trimmed, the cylinder-based forced activation is adjusted in such a manner that the individual catalysts, by virtue of the charge imprinted thereon for a threshold catalyst, exceed their remaining oxygen storage capacity to such an extent that the lambda sensor is enabled to measure the storable charge. The cylinder-based lambda signals reconstructed from the sensor signal are then used to determine specific diagnostic values for every individual catalyst.

    摘要: The aim of the inventive method is to improve the emission values of an internal combustion engine during idling following a cold start. Said aim is achieved by inferring an adaptive value for the required fuel quantity from a characteristic curve in accordance with the temperature of the internal combustion engine and verifying during continuous lambda regulation whether predetermined adaptation conditions are met. If so, an adaptive value is determined from the parameters of the lambda regulator and the characteristic curve is adjusted according the newly determined adaptive value and the measured temperature of the internal combustion engine.

    摘要: In order to check the functional capability of a three-way catalytic converter of a lambda-controlled internal-combustion engine, the efficiency of the catalytic converter is determined in a conventional way by determining the oxygen storage capability of the catalytic converter. In order to be able to adjust the efficiency with regard to temperature changes, a substitute value for the temperature in the catalytic converter is calculated. Using this substitute value, the efficiency, which has been determined for the catalytic converter, is adjusted for temperature influences. The measure of the functional capability of the catalytic converter thus obtained is accurate even after non-steady-state operating phases of the internal-combustion engine when the catalytic converter is not yet isothermal.

    摘要: According to one embodiment of the inventive method, half the cylinders of an in-line cylinder arrangement or the entire internal combustion engine are forcibly excited cylinder-specifically in opposite direction to the other half of the cylinders in order to balance the cylinder-specific total torque. According to another embodiment of the invention, trim regulation which compensates differences between the air quantities and/or fuel quantities introduced into the individual cylinders with the aid of the signal of a joint lambda probe is done cylinder-specifically for the individual catalytic converters. The invention also relates to lambda regulation for the joint main catalytic converter mounted downstream of the cylinder-specific individual catalytic converters.
