  • Patent number: 10815923
    Abstract: An oxygen concentration-based exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) flow rate compensation control method may include a model compensation mode, which confirms engine information acquired from an engine system, calculates an intake oxygen concentration by a model intake oxygen mass ratio through a combination of an intake oxygen mass ratio model value and a model exhaust lambda value and an indirect intake oxygen mass ratio through a combination of the intake oxygen mass ratio model value and an exhaust-side measurement lambda value, respectively, and compensates the model intake oxygen mass ratio as a model intake oxygen mass ratio compensation value applying a compensation error relative to the indirect intake oxygen mass ratio by using the model intake oxygen mass ratio as a model intake oxygen mass ratio current value, by a controller.

  • Patent number: 10815926
    Abstract: An engine control method for a vehicle is provided. The method includes securing target control values for a plurality of control objects related to an air path in an engine and calculating operation amounts of actuators for the control objects. The operation amounts minimize an objective function including the sum of resultant object components obtained by summing, for a predetermined reference time, squares of a difference between the target control values and prediction model functions for the control objects. The actuators are then driven based on the calculated operation values.

  • Patent number: 10001069
    Abstract: A method for reducing an exhaust gas of a mild hybrid system may include determining by an electronic control unit (ECU) whether an engine enters a full load region or a partial load region, based on a position of an accelerator pedal, controlling, by the ECU, the operation of an electric supercharger, based on information on an engine rotational frequency, when a vehicle is driven while being accelerated in a state in which the engine enters the full load region, and controlling, by the ECU, the operation of the electric supercharger by determining whether the vehicle is accelerated, based on an incremental slope of the position of the accelerator pedal, when the engine enters the partial load region.

  • Publication number: 20160237925
    Abstract: Disclosed are vehicle control method and apparatus with transient driving condition recognition. The method may include: operating an engine; calculating a first determination reference value according to a first target boost pressure and a first actual boost pressure; determining whether a differential value of the first determination reference value over time is equal to or more than a first predetermined reference value; controlling a vehicle according to a previously stored exhaust gas reduction map if it is determined that the differential value of the first determination reference value over time is equal to or more than the first predetermined reference value (transient driving condition); and controlling the vehicle according to a previously stored fuel efficiency improvement map if it is determined that the differential value of the first determination reference value over time is less than the first predetermined reference value (a steady driving condition).
