CLOSED-LOOP ADAPTIVE CONTROLS FROM CYCLE-TO-CYCLE FOR INJECTION RATE SHAPING
The present disclosure provides a system for adjusting a fuel injector drive signal during a fuel injection event wherein the system comprises an engine having a fuel injector, a fuel control module configured to generate control signals corresponding to a desired fueling profile of a fuel injection event, and a fueling profile interface module that outputs drive profile signals to the fuel injector in response to the control signals to cause the fuel injector to deliver an actual fueling profile, wherein the fueling profile interface module changes the drive profile signals during the fuel injection event in response to a parameter signal indicating a characteristic of the actual fueling profile.
Fuel injector for pulsed injections and system and method thereof
A fuel injection system is provided. The fuel injection system can have a fuel injector having a check valve with a plurality of fuel output ports, and a fuel injector body with an outer surface and an inner surface. The fuel injector body defines an inner volume to accommodate bi-directional movement of the check valve. The fuel injector body includes at least a first row of injection ports and a second row of injection ports extending from the inner surface to the outer surface. The check valve is bi-directionally controllable in the inner volume, during a single cycle, to output from the fuel injector body any one of a plurality of predefined pulse injection patterns.
METHOD FOR CONTROLLING METERING OF FUEL
A method is described for controlling the metering of fuel. A feature, which characterizes the switching point in time of a valve, is ascertained based on a measured signal curve. The feature is fed as an actual variable to a controller. A criterion of the feature is ascertained, the controller taking the criterion of the feature into account.
Method for controlling a pressure
A method and an assembly for controlling the pressure in a high-pressure region of an injection system in an internal combustion engine. A set high pressure is compared to an actual high pressure in order to determine a control deviation, the control deviation representing an input variable of a controller. A high pressure pump is controlled by a solenoid valve and the angle at which the delivery of fuel by the at least one high-pressure pump is to start is used as a manipulated variable of the high-pressure closed-loop control system.
System for controlling an electronic throttle body
A system for controlling an electronic throttle body includes an engine speed setting device having a first terminal coupled to a source for a reference voltage, a second terminal coupled to a first end of a conductor and means for varying a level of resistance between the first and second terminals. The level of resistance is indicative of a desired engine speed. The second terminal outputs an analog engine speed signal indicative of the desired engine speed on the conductor. An electronic control module includes an engine speed signal processing circuit including a resistor coupled between a node located between the first and second ends of the conductor and one of a voltage supply and a voltage return. A controller coupled to the second end of the conductor is configured to generate a control signal for the electronic throttle body responsive to the engine speed signal.
