  • Patent number: 7984647
    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting ice particle accumulation is disclosed herein. In one exemplary implementation, a method for detecting ice is described in which a parameter within an interior volume of a heated conduit is measured. The method also includes detecting the presence of an accumulation of ice particles based on the parameter measured within the interior volume of the heated conduit.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20070204599
    Abstract: A control strategy for a DISI engine fitted with a catalytic converter, for reducing the light off time of the catalyst during cold starts, which comprises setting the ignition timing for each engine cylinder and injecting at least a proportion of the fuel, the timing of the injection in relation to the ignition timing being varied as a function of an engine operating condition.
