Abstract: Operating a gaseous fuel engine system includes determining a detonation level in combustion cylinders in an engine in the gaseous fuel engine system, comparing the detonation level to a detonation level limit, calculating a detonation error, and limiting an engine load of the engine to a derated engine load level based on a reduction to intake manifold air pressure (IMAP) that is performed responsive to the detonation error. The gaseous fuel engine system can be operated at a reduced, derated engine load, rather than being shut down, and permitted to increase in engine load level as detonation events clear. Related control logic and structure are disclosed.

Abstract: A method for controlling an internal combustion engine includes receiving a request for a desired output from the internal combustion engine, receiving sensor information indicative of at least an engine speed or a pressure of gas provided to the internal combustion engine, and setting a changeable limit associated with a supply of air and fuel to the internal combustion engine. The method also includes, based at least in part on the received sensor information, changing the changeable limit to define a changed limit and reducing an output of the internal combustion engine based on the changed limit.
