Patent number: 9828929Abstract: The method for controlling the operation of an internal combustion engine comprises at least two operating modes. In a first operating mode, the intake valve is closed at a first predetermined crank angle, in accordance with the Miller cycle, before the piston reaches bottom dead center during the intake stroke for reducing pressure in the cylinder, and fuel is injected using first fuel injection means optimized for large amounts of fuel. In a second operating mode the intake valve is closed at a second predetermined crank angle, in accordance with conventional intake valve closing timing, after or slightly before the piston has passed bottom dead center, and fuel is injected using second fuel injection means optimized for small amounts of fuel. The invention also concerns an internal combustion engine.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2011Date of Patent: November 28, 2017Assignee: WARTSILA FINLAND OYInventors: Mikael Troberg, Luca Zuanigh, Anton Wintersteller, Christer Hattar, Gino Rizzetto, Diego Delneri
