  • Method for adjusting at least one control parameter of an internal combustion engine
    Patent number: 10146192
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for adjusting at least one control parameter (KP) of an internal combustion engine (200) by means of at least two setting parameters (SP), having the following steps: determining an optimum steady-state combination (110) of the at least two setting parameters (SP) in order to obtain the setpoint value (104) under steady-state boundary conditions, producing a functional dynamic relationship (120) between the control error (100), a setting expenditure (130) for the at least two setting parameters (SP) and the determined steady-state combination (110), optimizing the dynamic relationship (120) in order to determine an optimum dynamic combination (140) of the at least two setting parameters (SP), and using the optimum dynamic combination (140) for the following adjustment step during the adjustment of the at least one control parameter (KP).
