Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a conventional ⁇ control regulates the mixture of fuel and air to be supplied to an internal combustion engine to a stoichiometric ratio.
  • the ⁇ control must therefore be switched off and its task is performed by a controller. This procedure works satisfactorily as long as the control system correctly sets the required rich mixture during special operation. Due to incorrect adjustment or corresponding long-term changes, it can happen that a lean mixture is set instead of the required rich one. Especially towards the end of a special operation when the fat one
  • the object of the invention is to control the mixture during such special operating conditions
  • the solution according to the invention is characterized in claim 1.
  • Advantageous developments of the invention can be found in the subclaims.
  • the control range of the ⁇ regulator is therefore limited so that it regulates only in the rich direction and not in the lean direction.
  • the ⁇ control does not apply to a rich mixture. However, if the control incorrectly sets a lean mixture, the ⁇ control can intervene in the enriching direction and thus mitigate the error to a tolerable level.
  • the ⁇ controller with the limited control range is therefore switched on after the internal combustion engine has started, as soon as a probe operating temperature of the ⁇ probe is reached, that is to say immediately when the ⁇ control itself is ready for operation. Only when a minimum cooling water temperature is reached, which indicates the end of warm-up, at which the machine no longer needs a rich mixture, will the control range be released without restriction in the direction of rich and lean.
  • Other special operating conditions that require a rich mixture are the accelerating mode and the full-load mode.
  • the probe operating temperature of the ⁇ probe has already been reached and therefore the ⁇ control with a limited control range can be switched on during the entire acceleration or full-load operation.
  • Figure 1 is a diagram for explaining the invention
  • Figure 2 is a simplified block diagram of a device for
  • the air ratio ⁇ is plotted against the cooling water temperature TKW.
  • TKW cooling water temperature
  • the machine is in the warm-up phase until a minimum cooling water temperature TKWM is reached.
  • a rich mixture is set at the start depending on the level of the cooling water temperature TKW.
  • this initially set mixture is then controlled to the stoichiometric mixture ratio until the minimum cooling water temperature TKWM is reached.
  • Such an ideal mixture course is shown in FIG. 1 on the basis of the solid line.
  • the ⁇ control then regulates a stoichiometric mixture ratio, which in turn is idealized in FIG. 1.
  • Two dashed lines run parallel to the ideal mixture profile during the warm-up phase, which illustrate the fluctuation range of the mixture values set by a real controller.
  • a mixture course according to the lower line means an enrichment going beyond the required level and the upper line an insufficient enrichment.
  • the course of the mixture according to the upper line there are even mixture values towards the end of the warm-up phase which are above the stoichiometric ratio in the lean direction.
  • this is undesirable, especially during the warm-up phase, since the smooth running of the machine can no longer be guaranteed.
  • Such a lean mixture is reliably prevented by the method according to the invention during the warm-up phase. Because, in addition to the control, the ⁇ control is only switched on for the control in the bold direction, all mixture values set by the control which are above the stoichiometric ratio are reduced to the stoichiometric ratio.
  • FIG. 2. 1 denotes a ⁇ controller, 3 a logic device and 4 a controller.
  • the functions of these three devices are carried out by a microcomputer MC with appropriate programming.
  • the microcomputer MC receives the signals for an air ratio ⁇ from a ⁇ probe 2, a cooling water temperature TKW from a temperature sensor 5, a speed n from a speed sensor 6 and an air mass LM from an air mass meter 7.
  • An output of the microcomputer MC is connected to injectors 8 with appropriate control. The amount of fuel injected, and thus the mixture ratio, is determined via the opening time of the individual injection valves controlled by this.
  • the control 4 receives the cooling water temperature TKW, the speed n and the air mass LM as input variables.
  • the controller 4 determines the fuel quantity to be injected from a characteristic map via the speed n and the air mass LM, that is to say the load on the machine.
  • Another map contains an additional amount of fuel required for the cold start depending on the cooling water temperature TKW. This enrichment which is brought about in the event of a cold start is then carried out in accordance with that in FIG shown function until the end of the warm-up phase.
  • the output signals of the controller 4 and the ⁇ controller 1 are fed to a logic device 3. This selects the one of the two output signals that is passed on to the injection valves 8.
  • the air ratio ⁇ and the cooling water temperature TKW are supplied to the logic device 3.
  • the selection is explained on the basis of the flow diagram of FIG. 3.
  • the logic device 3 accordingly calls a program block "control and ⁇ -Re This program block contains the functions of the controller 4 and the ⁇ controller 1, the function of the ⁇ controller 1 only being carried out in the greasing direction.
  • the ⁇ controller is therefore only active when the controller is in control In this case, the function corresponding to the ⁇ controller 1 becomes active so that the set mixture values do not exceed the stoichiometric ratio.

Abstract

Dans des conditions de fonctionnement spéciales comme, par exemple, fonctionnement à chaud, accélération, pleine charge, le réglage du mélange est, comme on le sait, entrepris par une commande automatique à la place d'un réglage du lambda. Ceci peut conduire à un mélange pauvre. Selon l'invention, on évitera que le réglage en lambda reste connecté avec une plage de réglage réduite, en fonctionnement spécial. Il est superposé au préréglage automatique et n'agit que dans le sens mélange riche.
