    摘要: A method for operating an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, where the internal combustion engine includes a combustion chamber and a prechamber spark plug which is assigned to the combustion chamber and which has a prechamber which is fluidically connected to the combustion chamber via a plurality of openings. The method includes operating the internal combustion engine in a catalytic converter heating operation in which an ignition time, at which an ignition spark for igniting a fuel-air mixture in the combustion chamber is generated in the prechamber within a particular operating cycle of the internal combustion engine, is shifted later compared to a normal operation. An injection time, at which a last direct fuel injection into the combustion chamber is carried out within the particular operating cycle, is a same in the catalytic converter heating operation and in the normal operation.

    摘要: Provided is an internal combustion engine control device capable of reducing a control error of the ignition timing as compared with the conventional technique. The internal combustion engine control device of the present disclosure includes a neural network model that receives three or more variables including at least a rotation speed, a load, and another specific variable of an internal combustion engine as inputs and outputs a control amount of the internal combustion engine. The neural network model includes a first neural network model having a reference value of the specific variable as an input and a second neural network model having a current value of the specific variable as an input. The internal combustion engine control device of the present disclosure corrects a reference value of the control amount calculated based on the rotation speed and the load using a difference or a ratio between the output of the first neural network model and the output of the second neural network model as a correction amount.

    摘要: Provided is a control device of an internal combustion engine capable of increasing the temperature of a catalyst and the temperature of coolant more efficient1y than a conventional waste heat control device. A control device acquires a coolant temperature T_cw and a catalyst temperature T_cat of an exhaust system and controls an ignition timing θ of the internal combustion engine. The control device executes coolant heating control for increasing the energy distribution from the internal combustion engine to the coolant when the coolant temperature T_cw is equal to or less than a first threshold, and catalyst heating control for increasing the energy distribution from the internal combustion engine to the exhaust gas when the catalyst temperature T_cat is equal to or less than a second threshold.
