An engine device includes a main throttle valve disposed at a portion where an outlet of a supercharger and an inlet of an intercooler are coupled to each other, an exhaust bypass flow path configured to couple an outlet of an exhaust manifold to an exhaust outlet of the supercharger, an exhaust bypass valve disposed in the exhaust bypass flow path, an air supply bypass flow path configured to bypass a compressor of the supercharger, and an air supply bypass valve disposed in the air supply bypass flow path. Within a low load range of a load on the engine device, when the load is lower than a predetermined load, feedback control is performed on the main throttle valve, and when the load is higher than the predetermined load, map control based on a data table is performed on the main throttle valve.

A control system of a continuously variable valve duration (CVVD) is provided. A system for controlling a CVVD by adjusting an actuator for controlling the CVVD includes an electronic control unit (ECU) configured to output a command for adjusting the actuator based on a vehicle state and a cam position sensor is configured to measure a cam revolutions per minute (RPM). A controller is configured to calculate a crank RPM from the cam RPM when a failure occurs during communication with the ECU. A target phase angle is extracted based on the calculated crank RPM, and an electric current is output that corresponds to the extracted target phase angle to the actuator.

An engine system and method utilizing a compressor map to control compressor speed of a driven turbocharger in the engine system is provided. A desired compressor speed is determined that corresponds to a boost pressure and to a mass flow rate of intake from the compressor map. The transmission of the driven turbocharger is shifted to a ratio that drives the compressor to a desired speed to provide the desired boost pressure and air flow to the engine system.

A method for maintaining an engine speed of an engine of a work vehicle includes sending a requested parameter indicative of the engine speed to an engine controller of the work vehicle. The method also includes receiving a measured parameter indicative of the engine speed. The method further includes determining whether the requested parameter is different from the measured parameter. The method also includes setting a controller-requested parameter indicative of the engine speed based at least in part on the requested parameter and the measured parameter. The method further includes sending the controller-requested parameter to the engine controller. The method accounts for speed and torque saturation in order to avoid windup in the controller.

Control techniques for a turbocharger of an engine utilize a wastegate valve configured to divert exhaust gas from a turbine of the turbocharger that is rotatably coupled to a compressor of the turbocharger. A controller is utilized to obtain a torque request for the engine, determine a target compressor power based on the engine torque request, determine a normalized target turbine power based on the target compressor power, determine a target position for the wastegate valve based on the normalized target turbine power and a normalized exhaust flow, and actuate the wastegate valve to the target position. Such control techniques involve the actual calculation of much less intermediate parameters, such as target turbine pressure ratio, which results in more efficient calibration and implementation.

Methods and systems are provided for estimating exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) flow in an engine including an EGR system. In one example, a method may include operating the EGR system in an open loop feed forward mode based on an intake carbon di oxide sensor output above a threshold engine load and/or when a manifold absolute pressure (MAP) is above a threshold pressure, and operating the EGR system in a closed loop feedback mode based on a differential pressure sensor output when the engine load decreases below the threshold load and/or when the MAP decreases below the threshold pressure.

A two-stage air boosting system for an internal combustion engine has a first air boosting system which is one of an electrical air boosting system or a turbocharger air boosting system. The two-stage air boosting system also includes a second air boosting system which is the other one of the electrical air boosting system or the turbocharger air boosting system and is positioned intermediate the first air boosting system and an air intake manifold of the internal combustion engine.

An object is to enable low fuel-consumption operation of an engine by controlling a back pressure and a power generation amount taking account of a trade-off relationship between deterioration of fuel efficiency due to an increase in pumping loss due to a back-pressure rise of the engine and improvement of fuel efficiency due to recovery of exhaust energy by a turbo compound.

A GDCI engine control system determines if in-cylinder conditions are sufficient to achieve combustion in a given cylinder or if a misfire is likely. Fuel is delivered to that cylinder if combustion is probable, but fuel is disabled to that cylinder if a misfire is probable.
