ENGINE OIL STATE CONTROL DEVICE
An engine oil state control device for controlling a fuel mixture ratio of a fuel mixed in an engine oil of an engine on which a predetermined combustion control is performed includes comprising a fuel mixture ratio acquisition part configured to acquire the fuel mixture ratio, and an oil temperature rise control part configured to perform an oil temperature rise control for increasing an evaporation rate of the fuel mixed in the engine oil if the fuel mixture ratio is equal to or greater than a first threshold.
Waste gate valve control method and control device
A waste gate valve (7) of a turbocharger (3) is fully opened during idling after warm-up is completed in order to reduce exhaust resistance. However, during idling in an engine cold state when a cooling water temperature (TW) is below a threshold value (TW1), the waste gate valve (7) is open-loop controlled to an intermediate opening degree that is smaller than full opening. An ignition timing is delayed (retarded) for catalyst warm-up. When the cooling water temperature (TW) reaches (t3) the threshold value (TW1), the opening degree of the waste gate valve (7) is set to full opening. When an accelerator opening degree (APO) becomes large (t4) before warm-up is completed, the limitation of the opening degree is released.
Engine-driven working machine
An engine-driven working machine according to the present invention has a controller and a muffler. The controller is operated from starting of the engine in a rotational speed limitation mode in which the engine is prevented from rotating at a rotational speed that is higher than the predetermined limitation rotational speed. The controller forces to stop the engine, after a predetermined period has passed, during which the engine operates in the rotational speed limitation mode.
Control apparatus and control method for diesel engine
A control apparatus for a diesel engine includes a neighboring temperature estimating section which estimates a temperature of a neighborhood of a glow plug that heats an interior of a cylinder upon startup, and a supercharging pressure control section which controls a supercharging pressure in such a way that a rotation fluctuation of the engine does not increase, on the basis of the estimated temperature of the neighborhood of the glow plug.
ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHODS
Embodiments describe a method of controlling a two-stroke internal combustion engine. A method of controlling a two-stroke internal combustion engine includes determining a base nominal exhaust gas temperature, determining a base barometric pressure correction to base nominal exhaust gas temperature, determining exhaust gas temperature differential, determining exhaust gas temperature injection correction, and utilizing the exhaust gas temperature injection correction to make a final short-term fuel or ignition correction.
Filter regeneration control device
A filter regeneration control device includes a fuel supply controller configured to stop, when there is a forced regeneration request for burning particulate matter collected in a filter provided in an exhaust passage of an engine that is a traveling power source of a vehicle while the vehicle is stopped, fuel supply to at least one of a plurality of cylinders of the engine while supplying fuel to the cylinder other than the at least one cylinder, and a rotation speed controller configured to control a rotation speed of the engine when the forced regeneration request is issued to be higher than a rotation speed when the forced regeneration request is not issued and during an idle operation of the engine while the vehicle is stopped.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REDUCING ENGINE OVERHEATING USING LIQUID FUEL
Systems and methods are provided for cooling an overheated engine using a combination of variable displacement engine (VDE) technology and direct injection technology. In one example, a method may include deactivating a subset of engine cylinders based on an engine temperature and directly injecting liquid fuel into the deactivated cylinders. In this way, an increased thermal conductivity of the liquid fuel compared to air decreases the engine temperature at a faster rate than when air-based engine cooling methods are used, thereby preventing overheating-related engine degradation.
Waste gate valve closing control
The valve closing control is performed to close the waist gate valve of the turbocharger when the hydraulic fluid temperature is less than the temperature threshold. By closing the waist gate valve, the output torque is increased by increasing the amount of air taken into the engine that is idling operation, to suppress the engine stall that may occur when switching from the non-driving range to the driving range.
SPLIT EXHAUST ENGINE WITH IDLE CHECK VALVE
Methods and systems are provided for reducing exhaust residuals during light load conditions in a split exhaust engine via a check valve. In one example, a scavenge exhaust manifold may be maintained above a threshold pressure by introducing fresh air into the scavenge manifold during a valve overlap period, the scavenge manifold coupled to a cylinder of an engine and coupled to an intake passage of the engine.
