Abstract: An upstream integrated value is an integrated value of a difference obtained by subtracting an upstream gas temperature at a starting point in time of integration from the upstream gas temperature after starting of the internal combustion engine. A downstream integrated value is an integrated value of a difference obtained by subtracting a downstream gas temperature at the starting point in time of the integration from the downstream gas temperature after the starting of the internal combustion engine. An anomaly diagnosing process obtains an anomaly determination result indicating that the exhaust purification device is in a removed state when a deviation between the upstream integrated value and the downstream integrated value is smaller than a reference level. The determination threshold is higher than a dew point.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine system includes an internal combustion engine including a cylinder, an intake valve and an exhaust valve, a cylinder injection valve, and a variable valve drive mechanism, and a control device that controls the cylinder injection valve and the variable valve drive mechanism. The control device includes a calculation unit that calculates a first crank angle section where a temperature of the cylinder is equal to or higher than a boiling point of the fuel in a compression stroke before completion of warming-up of the internal combustion engine and a second crank angle section where the temperature of the cylinder is equal to or higher than the boiling point of the fuel in the valve closed period, and an injection controller that executes fuel injection in the first and second crank angle sections by the cylinder injection valve.
