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.

An object is to provide a control device for an internal combustion engine, at an inexpensive price, whereby it is possible to suppress a decrease in the exhaust gas performance of the internal combustion engine due to an environmental change or damage from aging. The present invention relates to a control device for an internal combustion engine which controls an EGR amount by adjusting an opening degree of an EGR valve (20) disposed in an EGR channel (16), the control device comprising temperature detection units (24, 26, 30), a pressure detection unit (28), a unit (48) to calculate a basic opening degree of the EGR valve, a unit (44, 56) to calculate an estimate value of at least one of an air-excess ratio or an intake oxygen concentration on the basis of detection values obtained by the temperature detection units and the pressure detection unit, a unit (46, 48) to calculate a target value of the estimate value, a unit (50) to calculate a correction factor K on the basis of the estimate air-excess ratio s and the target air-excess ratio t, a unit (52) to calculate the opening-degree command value D for the EGR valve on the basis of the basic opening degree Db and the correction coefficient K, and a unit (54) to control the EGR valve on the basis of the opening-degree command value D.

A control system includes an electronic control unit including a feedback controller and a reference governor. The feedback controller is configured to determine a value of control input such that a value of control output approximates a target value. The reference governor is configured to calculate, with a prediction model, a predicted maximum value of an overshoot amount of the control output that overshoots from the target value. The prediction model is derived assuming that an n-th delay (n is a natural number) occurs in a response of the control output. The reference governor is configured to calculate the target value by correcting the provisional target value of the control output based on the predicted maximum value so as to increase a degree of satisfaction of a constraint condition with regard to the control output.

A method of controlling a low-pressure fuel pump may include: identifying a fuel consumption amount of the low-pressure fuel pump in response to a feedforward fuel control; determining a motor driving base duty based on the fuel consumption amount; and identifying a target fuel pressure based on the pressure of fuel.

A method for limiting a revolution speed of an internal combustion engine (E) of a sports car, the method comprising a first step (Step 1) of acquiring a nominal speed value of said internal combustion engine, a second step (Step 2) of measuring a revolution speed of said internal combustion engine, when (CHK) a measured revolution speed of said internal combustion engine has reached (yes) an activation speed approximately equal to said nominal speed, the method comprising a third step (Step 3) of setting a predetermined initial torque value (a) to be delivered by said internal combustion engine and simultaneously a fourth step (Step 4) of carrying out a feedback control of a torque delivery of said internal combustion engine.

A variety of methods and arrangements are described for managing recharging of cylinders of an internal combustion engine during skip fire operation of the engine. In one method, a maximum allowed deactivation time for a cylinder is determined and the cylinder is recharged before the maximum allowed deactivation time is exceeded.

An apparatus, method, and system for controlling the torque of an internal combustion engine during certain vehicle component operations to minimize unwanted motion and vibration. The method includes detecting at least one of reverse gear engagement or reverse movement of the vehicle; wherein a feedback control of the internal combustion engine is switched from open-loop control to closed-loop control upon detection of at least one of a reverse gear activation or reverse movement of the vehicle

An integrated control system and method which improves load application/rejection performance for diesel generating sets is disclosed. Feedback-linearizing control is used for voltage regulation, which removes interaction between automatic voltage regulation and speed regulation. A proper feed-forward signal is sent to the governor using load anticipation control. The integrated control reduces engine speed and voltage deviations. It is implemented in the voltage regulator, since it recognizes load changes before the engine. The integrated control helps the engine anticipate throttle adjustments in advance of load being recognized by the engine. Test results show an improvement in engine speed recovery after a large increase or decrease in load.

A fuel injection control apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes a low pressure fuel pump, a low pressure fuel passage, a high pressure fuel pump, a high pressure fuel passage, a fuel injection valve, a high pressure controller, and a low pressure controller. The low pressure controller calculates a feedforward correction amount that increases as a request injection amount of the fuel injection valve increases and an increase rate of the high pressure target value increases when a high pressure target value increases. The low pressure controller calculates a feedback correction amount based on a low-side pressure deviation when the high pressure target value increases. The low pressure controller controls driving of the low pressure fuel pump based on a sum of the feedforward correction amount and the feedback correction amount.

A method for operating an engine system including an internal combustion engine and an exhaust gas aftertreatment device, including: carrying out a fill level control to control a fill level of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device as a function of a predefined fill level setpoint value; operating a pilot control for the fill level control; and adapting the pilot control as a function of a deviation between a measured lambda value and a modeled lambda value.
