Abstract: Some embodiments of the teachings herein include an apparatus for diagnosing bypass valve failure in an electric supercharger with a motor and an electric compressor comprising: a bypass valve on a bypass line branching from an intake line with the electric supercharger; and a control unit which assesses the vehicle-state information to determine whether failure criteria of a bypass valve start are satisfied. If the failure criteria are satisfied, the control unit transmits ‘open’ or ‘close’ control instructions to the bypass valve and transmits, to the electric supercharger, a specific rotational-speed target value for determining whether the bypass valve is in the normal open state or the normal closed state, thereby determining whether the bypass valve is subject to stuck-open failure or stuck-closed failure.

Abstract: A combustion phase detection method of an engine has the advantages of being able to reduce exhaust gas and to improve combustion stability, to compensate injection and ignition delay time between combustion chambers and between cycles, and to detect a combustion phase in real time such that a heat generation rate and heat release can be effectively calculated in an early state of combustion with a simple calculation method to control combustion of an engine, by using a combustion pressure and a motoring pressure difference of an engine not affected by an offset value of the cylinder pressure. For this, a combustion phase detection method may include detecting a combustion phase by using a specific point of DRdV as follows: DR ? ? V ? : ? ? P diff ? ? V ? ? max ( P diff ? ? V ? ? ) Here, the Pdiff (P?Pmotoring) is a difference between a cylinder measure combust pressure (P) and a motoring pressure (Pmotoring), and V is a combustion chamber volume.

Abstract: A combustion phase detection method is able to reduce exhaust gas and to improve combustion stability, to compensate injection and ignition delay time between combustion chambers and between cycles, and to detect a combustion phase in real time such that a heat generation rate and a heat release can be effectively calculated at an early state of the combustion by using a combustion pressure and a motoring pressure difference of an engine not affected by an offset value of the cylinder pressure. The combustion phase detection method of an engine may include detecting a combustion phase according to fuel injection timing by using a specific point of DHdP that is calculated by the following heat release equation: DHdP:?1/??1VdPdiff/d?d?. Here, Pdiff is a difference (Pdiff=P?Pmotoring) between a cylinder measure combustion pressure (P) and a motoring pressure (Pmotoring).
