  • Patent number: 9002625
    Abstract: Provided is a control device for an internal combustion engine equipped with a supercharger, including: operation state detection means for detecting an operation state of the internal combustion engine; overlap read means for reading a valve overlap period; collector pressure detection means for detecting a collector pressure; exhaust gas pressure estimation means for estimating an exhaust gas pressure on an upstream side of the supercharger; and scavenging amount estimation means for estimating a scavenging amount based on the operation state, the valve overlap period, the collector pressure, and the exhaust gas pressure.

  • Publication number: 20140130783
    Abstract: A compressor (5) of a turbo supercharger (3) is located between an air flow meter (12) and a throttle valve (13). An EGR passage (21) is connected to an intake passage (10) at a joint (22) upstream of the compressor (5). The following relationship (1) is satisfied between an intake passage volume (V1) from the air flow meter (12) to the junction (22), an intake passage volume (V2) from the compressor (5) to the throttle valve (13) and a maximum boost pressure (Pb) under operating conditions in which the introduction of EGR gas is performed, in order to prevent a mixed gas of fresh air and EGR gas from flowing back to the air flow meter (12) even under the maximum boost pressure (Pb).

  • Publication number: 20140000554
    Abstract: Provided is a control device for a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine, including: a supercharger to be driven by exhaust gas energy; and a fuel injection control unit, in which the fuel injection control unit sets a fuel injection amount for one cylinder so that an air/fuel ratio in the one cylinder is richer than a theoretical air/fuel ratio, and exhaust gas exhausted when the one cylinder is in an exhaust stroke and scavenging gas scavenged during a valve overlap period from another cylinder which is in an intake stroke when the one cylinder is in the exhaust stroke are mixed in an exhaust pipe so as to attain an air/fuel ratio facilitating combustion.

  • Patent number: 7350504
    Abstract: In control apparatus and method for an inner cylinder spark ignited internal combustion engine having a fuel injection valve configured to directly inject fuel into an inside of an engine cylinder and a spark plug, a super retard combustion is executed to set an ignition timing after a compression stroke top dead center and to inject fuel before the ignition timing and after the compression stroke top dead center during a predetermined engine driving condition and at least part of fuel is injected before the compression stroke top dead center to decrease a fuel injection quantity after the compression stroke top dead center during an interval which is immediately after an engine start and in which a pressure of fuel is relatively low.
