Abstract: A controller for a hydrogen engine controls a hydrogen engine including a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) device installed in an exhaust passage and a urea addition valve that adds urea to exhaust gas flowing through a portion of the exhaust passage upstream of the SCR device. Processing circuitry of the controller executes a reduction process that causes a urea addition amount of the urea addition valve to be smaller when a urea deposition amount of the SCR device is greater than or equal to a prescribed value than when the urea deposition amount is less than the prescribed value. The processing circuitry executes a lean-burn limiting process that sets an air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture to be burned in the hydrogen engine to a value less than or equal to a prescribed lean-burn limiting value while the reduction process is reducing the urea addition amount.

A controller for the internal combustion engine is configured to execute a restriction process that controls, when the remaining amount is less than a set value, an injection amount of hydrogen gas by the fuel injection valve such that an air excess ratio in the cylinder becomes greater than or equal to a specified excess ratio that is greater than 1.

A second condition is set to such a condition of the fuel injection amount and the opening degree of the throttle valve that the air excess ratio in the cylinder becomes 1 or less while satisfying the target output of the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: The vehicle control device executes: a stop process for stopping fuel supply to two cylinders to be stopped; and a selection process of selecting one cylinder to be a stop instruction for stopping fuel supply from among the cylinders to be stopped. The selection process is a process of selecting a cylinder whose compression top dead center appears earliest among the stop target cylinders. The crank angle interval from when the cylinder to be the stop instruction target is selected until the stop instruction target cylinder is switched to the next cylinder among the stop target cylinders is the stoppable angle interval. The stop instruction for the selected cylinder is received before the fuel injection start time and at the stoppable angle interval. The control device executes a retard process of retarding the fuel injection start timing so that the stoppable angle interval includes the fuel injection start timing.

Abstract: An ENG-ECU performs a specific cylinder fuel cutoff process of stopping combustion of an air-fuel mixture in some cylinders out of a plurality of cylinders of an internal combustion engine and a transmission process of transmitting engine operation information on execution of the specific cylinder fuel cutoff process to an HV-ECU. The HV-ECU performs a torque compensation process of compensating for a decrease in engine torque due to execution of the specific cylinder fuel cutoff process using an output torque of a second MG based on the received engine operation information. The ENG-ECU performs a process of starting the specific cylinder fuel cutoff process in a combustion cycle when a waiting time which includes a time until the HV-ECU receives the engine operation information has elapsed after the transmission process has been performed.

An internal combustion engine and a first rotating electric machine are capable of applying power to a driven wheel via a power split device. A deactivating process deactivates combustion control in a deactivated cylinder that corresponds to one or more of cylinders of the internal combustion engine. A first compensation process sets, when the deactivating process is executed, torque of the first rotating electric machine to be larger than torque of the first rotating electric machine obtained prior to starting the deactivating process so as to compensate for at least some of a decrease amount of torque of the internal combustion engine resulting from the deactivating process.
