  • a crankshaft sensor is used that delivers an output signal that is representative of the crankshaft position. Both signals are evaluated together in the control unit of the internal combustion engine.
  • a camshaft sensor is no longer required, since the crank and camshaft position can be synchronized, especially after starting, by linking the combustion chamber pressure curve and the crankshaft sensor signal.

Based on this knowledge, control signals for the internal combustion engine can be generated.
  • Combustion chamber pressure curve for recognizing the valve control times that is to say for recognizing whether the exhaust valve opens, whether the exhaust valve closes, whether the intake valve opens or whether the intake valve closes, has not been carried out.

For this purpose, characteristic events are evaluated, from which certain valve timing can be clearly identified. For the valve control times outlet opens, outlet closes, inlet opens, inlet closes, characteristic pressure curves result which, according to the invention, are advantageously extracted from the combustion chamber pressure curve. Further advantages of the invention are achieved by the measures specified in the subclaims. It is particularly advantageous that different valve timing can be determined by recognizing the various associated characteristic events.
  • Valve control times can also be recognized by a similar evaluation of the combustion chamber pressure curve. A comparison with stored characteristic values typical of internal combustion engines enables engine-specific determinations of valve timing.

  • the cylinder pressure reaches two maximum values that are one working cycle or 720 ° KW apart.
  • the maximum of the combustion chamber pressure is higher in the area in which combustion takes place than in the area in which only compression occurs. In the example according to FIG. 2, combustion takes place in phase Ve. Only a compression occurs in phase Ko.
  • the combustion chamber pressure curve shown schematically in FIG. 2 is evaluated according to the invention according to various criteria in order to infer events that are characteristic of the camshaft position in relation to the crankshaft position and thus of the valve seat control times.

  • Other valve control times are the control times outlet opens, inlet opens, outlet closes.
  • the expansion line of the combustion chamber pressure curve can be evaluated to detect the valve control time "exhaust opening".
  • exhaust opening As long as the exhaust valve is closed, the processes in the cylinder are a thermodynamically closed system, so that the processes can be calculated according to thermodynamic laws.

  • the pressure gradient exhibits a behavior which is characterized by a decreasing decrease and a sudden increase in the amount of the pressure gradient, it can be concluded that the outlet opening has taken place.
  • the evaluation can be carried out mathematically, for example by checking a sign change in the second derivative of the pressure according to the volume. If such a change of sign occurs in the second derivative of the pressure after the crank angle, it can be concluded that the outlet has been opened.

  • Corresponding conclusions can be drawn by evaluating the position of points A3 and A4 according to FIG. 6, the combustion chamber pressure P is plotted against the crankshaft angle ⁇ .
  • Evaluation of the combustion chamber pressure curve can also be carried out alternatively by comparison with the ambient pressure. For example, to detect the valve timing "intake valve closes intake valve” the volume or the crankshaft angle at which the Compression pressure is equal to the ambient pressure. In this case, point A3 is used as the intersection of the
  • the combustion chamber pressure curve can also be evaluated on the basis of a fixed pressure value. In this case, however, special diagnostic strategies are required which prevent incorrect diagnosis due to a strong change in the ambient pressure, for example when driving at high altitude. If the control device detects such a high travel, for example in connection with other evaluations for regulating the internal combustion engine, the detection of valve timing can be prevented at least temporarily.
  • valve timing is changed, for example by a corresponding change in the camshaft positions, this also leads to a change in the course of the combustion chamber pressure during the compression phase, during the combustion phase and during the expansion phase.
