Abstract: A smoothing coefficient is set value such that a value of smoothing coefficient when the fuel pressure difference is larger than the threshold value is larger than a value of smoothing coefficient when a fuel pressure difference between a target fuel pressure and a detected fuel pressure is equal to or smaller than a threshold value. A smoothened fuel pressure is calculated by performing fuel pressure smoothing processing on the detected fuel pressure, using the smoothing coefficient. An in-cylinder injection valve is controlled such that fuel is injected during a target fuel injection duration according to the smoothened fuel pressure from the in-cylinder injection valve.

Abstract: A multi-cylinder internal combustion engine includes: a first fuel injection valve that injects fuel into each cylinder; a second fuel injection valve that injects fuel into an intake passage; and an exhaust recirculation device that causes some of exhaust flowing in an exhaust passage to recirculate into the intake passage. A control device is used in the multi-cylinder internal combustion engine. The control device limits recirculation of exhaust into the intake passage by the exhaust recirculation device when imbalance determination is conducted during engine operation by fuel injection from the first fuel injection valve only, compared to when imbalance determination is conducted during engine operation involving fuel injection from the second fuel injection valve.
