  • Patent number: 11965444
    Abstract: A controller for an internal combustion engine is configured to execute a determination process that determines that a deviation between a first change amount and a second change amount during a fuel cutoff operation is less than or equal to a threshold, and an anomaly diagnosing process that determines that an exhaust purification device is in a detached state when the determination process determines that the deviation is less than or equal to the threshold. The first change amount and the second change amount are change amounts per unit time of the temperature of exhaust gas on the upstream side and the downstream side of the exhaust purification device, respectively. The controller is configured to interrupt the determination process when the upstream-side temperature increases within a determination period.

  • Publication number: 20240068422
    Abstract: An upstream integrated value is an integrated value of a difference obtained by subtracting an upstream gas temperature at a starting point in time of integration from the upstream gas temperature after starting of the internal combustion engine. A downstream integrated value is an integrated value of a difference obtained by subtracting a downstream gas temperature at the starting point in time of the integration from the downstream gas temperature after the starting of the internal combustion engine. An anomaly diagnosing process obtains an anomaly determination result indicating that the exhaust purification device is in a removed state when a deviation between the upstream integrated value and the downstream integrated value is smaller than a reference level. The determination threshold is higher than a dew point.

  • Publication number: 20230412029
    Abstract: An armature winding of a rotary electric machine includes two systems of electrically independent windings. An armature winding of a first system is closer to the field element in the radial direction than an armature winding of a second system, A current control device is provided for controlling a current to the armature winding of the first system and the armature winding of the second system. In consideration of a difference in magnetic flux waveforms from the field element caused by a difference in the distance to the field element in the radial direction, the current control device differentiates a current waveform to the armature winding of the first system from a current waveform to the armature winding of the second system.
