Abstract: A method for operating a spark-ignition internal combustion engine, wherein the internal combustion engine is operated using hydrogen as fuel, a lambda injection value is a value that indicates the formation of a mixture on the basis of an injection fuel quantity (Finjection) to be supplied to a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine and an air quantity (L) to be supplied to the combustion chamber from outside of the internal combustion engine, wherein the injection fuel quantity (Finjection) is determined, at least in some ranges, independently of a lambda target value. In order to ensure adequate operation of hydrogen engines, the injection fuel quantity (Finjection) is determined, at least in some ranges, at least on the basis of the air quantity (L).
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating an internal combustion engine comprising: determining a first set point value of a volume of air to be taken into the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine within one working cycle thereof by retrieving the first set point value from a first characteristic map stored in a memory device of an electronic computing device as a function of a current engine speed of the internal combustion engine and as a function of a torque to be provided by the internal combustion engine; and determining a second set point value by retrieving the second set point value from a second characteristic map stored in the memory device of the electronic computing device as a function of a current engine speed of the internal combustion engine and as a function of a current volume of air supplied to the combustion chamber.
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a gas engine having at least one combustion chamber, in particular for a motor vehicle, wherein a gaseous fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber in order to operate the gas engine, the gaseous fuel being injected directly into the combustion chamber within a working cycle of the gas engine during at least two phases spaced apart from each other in time, the at least two phases beginning and ending before the first ignition occurring within the working cycle.
