Abstract: A control system for an engine cylinder having a pre-chamber and a main chamber includes a pressure sensor being provided in the pre-chamber, and a processor coupled to the pressure sensor. The processor is configured to measure pre-chamber pressure using the pressure sensor, determine a peak pre-chamber pressure from the measured pre-chamber pressure, calculate an estimated main chamber pressure corresponding to the peak pre-chamber pressure from at least one cylinder condition at ignition, calculate a pressure ratio of the peak pre-chamber pressure to the estimated main chamber pressure, calculate a fuel parameter for at least one of the pre-chamber and main chamber from the pressure ratio to achieve a desired pressure ratio, and generate a control signal to provide fuel to at least one of the pre-chamber and main chamber in accordance with the fuel parameter.

Abstract: A fuel control system for a multiple fuel internal combustion engine may include at least one cylinder pressure sensor associated with each cylinder of the engine. A data collection module may be configured to receive real-time cylinder pressure measurements from each of the at least one cylinder pressure sensors and calculate one or more actual combustion parameter values from the real-time cylinder pressure measurements. A comparison module may be configured to receive the calculated one or more actual combustion parameter values from the data collection module and compare the calculated one or more actual combustion parameter values for each cylinder to theoretical combustion parameter values to determine any difference therebetween, wherein the theoretical combustion parameter values are derived independently from any actual combustion parameter values based on real-time sensor measurements.

Abstract: A pressure measurement system for an engine is illustrated. The pressure measurement system includes a pressure sensor configured to generate a signal indicative of a pressure within a cylinder and an angle sensor configured to generate a signal indicative of an angular position of a crankshaft of the engine. The pressure measurement system further includes a controller coupled to the pressure sensor and the angle sensor. The controller is configured to determine a volume of the cylinder based on the signal indicative of the angular position of the crankshaft. The controller is configured to determine a first pressure offset during a compression stroke of the engine and a second pressure offset during an expansion stroke of the engine. The controller is further configured to determine a corrected pressure value by any one of the first pressure offset and the second pressure offset based on the angular position of the crankshaft.
