Abstract: A method for operating a dual-fuel internal combustion engine, having an intake path and an engine having a number of cylinders. In the method the engine is operated in a first operating state in diesel operation with diesel or another liquid fuel, and in a second operating state in gas operation with gas as fuel in a charge mixture, and switching between diesel operation and gas operation takes place in a switchover range determined, in particular predetermined, by switchover operating parameters.

Abstract: A gas internal combustion engine, having a gas mixer, an intake section and an engine to which a fuel mixture having a charging mixture is fed. The engine is operated in the gas mode with gas as the fuel in the charging mixture. By an input mixture portion, from an earlier mixture state, of a gas/air mixture, an output mixture portion, from a later mixture state, of the gas/air mixture is determined by an intake section model. The output mixture portion is determined at an engine feed, the input mixture portion is determined over a number of intermediate states of the mixture portion in a number of assigned volumes of the intake section. The intake mixture portion of a gas/air mixture is determined at the gas mixer, and an air stream and/or gas stream is set at the gas mixer in accordance with the input mixture portion.

Abstract: A method for operating an internal combustion engine, which has: an intake section and an engine with an number of cylinders and a receiver which is arranged upstream of the cylinders wherein the intake section has: a supercharging system with a compressor and a bypass for bypassing the supercharging system, and wherein the receiver is assigned an engine throttle, and the bypass is assigned a compressor bypass throttle; and a setting of the engine throttle and/or of the compressor bypass throttle is set as a function of the operation in order to influence a charge fluid. The intake section is assigned an intake section model by which at least a mass flow and/or state of the charge fluid upstream of the engine are/is determined and on the basis of a determination result the compressor bypass throttle is set as a function of the engine throttle.

The engine is operated in the gas mode with gas as the fuel in the charging mixture. By an input mixture portion, assigned to an earlier mixture state, of a gas/air mixture, an output mixture portion, assigned to a later mixture state, of the gas/air mixture is determined, The determination is carried out by an intake section model which serves as a basis of a computing model for the intake section. The output mixture portion of the gas/air mixture is determined an engine feed, the input mixture portion of the output mixture portion is determined over a number of intermediate states of the mixture portion in a number of assigned volumes of the intake section. The intake mixture portion of a gas/air mixture is determined at the gas mixer, and an air stream and/or gas stream is set at the gas mixer in accordance with the input mixture portion.
