摘要:
Embodiments for starting an engine are provided. In one embodiment, an engine control method comprises, during engine cranking, commencing fuel injection when intake manifold pressure drops below a threshold, the threshold based on fuel volatility. In this way, the stability of engine starts using low volatility fuels may be increased.

A compressor active surge control system that includes an air recirculation line that has a first end connected downstream of a compressor outlet and a second end connected upstream of a compressor inlet. The gas recirculation line recirculates compressed air from the compressor outlet to the compressor inlet. Also included in the system is a mixer positioned to receive both ambient air and recirculated air. Mixing of the air homogenizes the air prior to its introduction into the compressor. An air cooler may be included that cools the recirculated air prior to its introduction into the compressor. Cooling and mixing of the recirculated air expands the operating range of the compressor by reducing the incidence of surge. Various existing components, such as intercoolers and filters, may serve the additional duty of cooling or mixing the recirculated air.

Intake air is severely restricted during cold start of a diesel engine to provide high engine-out exhaust gas temperatures and quickly heat exhaust treatment devices. Cylinder pressures are maintained substantially below the pressure of the ambient atmosphere during a principal portion of the intake stroke of each combustion cycle to promote rapid fuel vaporization and higher combustion temperatures. The engine is operated in a premixed charge compression ignition combustion mode to provide a high engine-out exhaust temperature, stable combustion, and low emissions during the cold start period.

An engine, having an intake passage, a throttle valve arranged in the intake passage, and a fuel injector arranged in the intake passage for injecting fuel into the intake passage, comprises an air-flow control valve arranged in the intake passage between the fuel injector and the throttle valve. The air-flow control valve is controlled to close during the engine starting operation, and to open after the engine starting operation completes. The air-flow control valve has a valve element having an axis about which the element is rotatable when the valve is opened or closed. The rotational direction of the valve element is selected so that air flowing through the valve is guided by the valve toward the fuel injector when the air-flow control valve is controlled to an intermediate open position which is between the closed position and the full open position.

Methods and systems are provided for improving engine startability during cold-start conditions, when operating with gasoline fuels, alcohol fuels, or blended fuels. In one example, a method of engine cold-start control may include initiating fuel injection for cylinder combustion with manifold pressure lowered via intake throttle adjustments. The manifold pressure is lowered based on an optimization between cylinder charge reduction and improved fuel boiling at the lower pressure.

The invention relates to an internal combustion engine which is provided with a manifold from which an intake tube extends to an intake of a cylinder of the internal combustion engine, with a gas inlet valve, disposed at the intake of the cylinder, an intermittent charge valve, disposed upstream of the gas inlet valve in the intake tube and releasing or closing the intake tube subject to a switching position of the intake tube, and in injection valve for metering fuel. The temporal position of the duration of injection of the fuel is adjusted subject to a point in time at which the switching position of the intermittent charge valve is changed. In this manner, it can be ensured that the air has a high velocity of flow during injection, thereby obtaining a good mixture preparation in a simple manner.

摘要:
The object of the present invention is to provide a controller, for a combustion engine, having a simple structure and which can reduce the exhaust emissions at the engine start-up time. The controller comprises a means for decreasing the pressure in an intake air passage downstream of a throttle valve during the engine cranking operation. A controller comprises an air pump, a means for communicating an inlet of the air pump either to the atmosphere or to an intake air passage downstream of a throttle valve, and a means for changing the inlet of the air pump from the atmosphere to the intake air passage downstream of the throttle valve and to activate the air pump during the engine cranking operation. Another controller comprises a vacuum tank, for example, a brake-booster instead of the air pump that enables it to more quickly reduce the air pressure in the intake air passage downstream the throttle valve.

An engine, having an intake passage, a throttle valve arranged in the intake passage, and a fuel injector arranged in the intake passage for injecting fuel into the intake passage, comprises an air-flow control valve arranged in the intake passage between the fuel injector and the throttle valve. The air-flow control valve is controlled to close during the engine starting operation, and to open after the engine starting operation completes. The air-flow control valve has a valve element having an axis about which the element is rotatable when the valve is opened or closed. The rotational direction of the valve element is selected so that air flowing through the valve is guided by the valve toward the fuel injector when the air-flow control valve is controlled to an intermediate open position which is between the closed position and the full open position.
