Abstract

The method involves carrying out a charge replacement per working cylinder via cylinder-individual, with suitable control of the inlet and outlet valves. The corresponding exhaust valve is opened during the induction cycle of a cylinder so that a previously ejected exhaust gas in the exhaust tract is partly sucked back into the cylinder.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Betreiben einer direkteinspritzenden Brennkraftmaschine, insbesondere eines Ottomotors, wobei ein Ladungswechsel jeweiliger Arbeitszylinder über zylinderindividuelle, entsprechend gesteuerte Einlaß- und Auslaßventile durchgeführt wird, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a method for operating a direct injection Internal combustion engine, in particular an Otto engine, with a charge change respective working cylinder via cylinder-specific, appropriately controlled intake and Exhaust valves is carried out according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aus der DE 43 17 660 C1 ist ein direkteinspritzender Ottomotor bekannt, bei dem über Abgasrückführkanäle Abgas von einem Zylinder direkt in einen anderen Zylinder geleitet wird. Hierbei erfolgt die Abgaszuführung derart, daß eine geschichtete Ladung des Zylinders entsteht, wobei in einer zylinderförmigen Abgasmenge ein Frischgas-Kraftstoffgemisch derart erzeugt wird, daß in allen Betriebsphasen λ = 1 erzielt wird. Dies reduziert eine Schadstoffemission entsprechend.From DE 43 17 660 C1 a direct injection gasoline engine is known, in which over Exhaust gas recirculation channels Exhaust gas from one cylinder is directed directly into another cylinder becomes. Here, the exhaust gas is fed in such a way that a stratified charge of Cylinder arises, being in a cylindrical amount of exhaust gas Fresh gas / fuel mixture is generated in such a way that λ = 1 is achieved in all operating phases becomes. This reduces pollutant emissions accordingly.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine direkteinspritzende Brennkraftmaschine bzgl. Schadstoffemission und Kraftstoffverbrauch weiter zu optimieren.The present invention has for its object a direct injection Internal combustion engine with regard to pollutant emissions and fuel consumption optimize.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Verfahren der o. g. Art mit den in Anspruch 1 gekennzeichneten Merkmalen gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved according to the invention by a method of the above. Kind of with the in Characteristics characterized claim 1 solved. Advantageous embodiments of the Invention are specified in the dependent claims.

Dazu ist es erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, daß im Ansaugtakt eines Zylinders das entsprechende Auslaßventil derart geöffnet wird, daß zuvor von diesem Zylinder in den Abgastrakt ausgestoßenes Abgas teilweise in den Zylinder zurück gesaugt wird.For this purpose, it is provided according to the invention that in the intake stroke of a cylinder corresponding exhaust valve is opened such that previously from this cylinder in the Exhaust gas exhaust gas is partially sucked back into the cylinder.

Dies hat den Vorteil, daß bei verminderter Schadstoffemission und vereinfachter Abgasrückführung eine Steigerung des innermotorischen Wirkungsgrades und damit ein reduzierter Kraftstoffverbrauch erzielt wird. Ferner ergibt sich eine Verringerung der Rohemission, insbesondere der HC- und NOx-Werte. This has the advantage that, with reduced pollutant emissions and simplified exhaust gas recirculation, an increase in the efficiency of the engine and thus a reduced fuel consumption is achieved. There is also a reduction in the raw emission, in particular the HC and NO x values.

Zweckmäßigerweise wird die Öffnungszeit und/oder die Öffnungscharakteristik des Auslaßventils im Ansaugtakt derart gewählt, daß sich eine zylinderförmige Abgaswolke im Arbeitszylinder ausbildet.The opening time and / or the opening characteristic of the Exhaust valve selected in the intake stroke such that there is a cylindrical exhaust gas cloud trained in the working cylinder.

Bevorzugt wird dem mit Abgas vorgefüllten Arbeitszylinder anschließend eine derartige Menge Frischluft und Kraftstoff in einer derartigen Weise zugeführt, daß sich eine geschichtete Ladung des Arbeitszylinder sowie ein Kraftstoff/Luft-Verhältnis von λ = 1 einstellt.The working cylinder pre-filled with exhaust gas is then preferred Amount of fresh air and fuel supplied in such a way that a stratified charge of the working cylinder and a fuel / air ratio of λ = 1 established.

Die Ventilsteuerung wird beispielsweise elektrisch, elektromagnetisch, mittels des Piezoeffektes oder hydraulisch durchgeführt.The valve control is, for example, electrical, electromagnetic, by means of the Piezo effect or performed hydraulically.

Zum Aufrechterhalten eines Wertes λ = 1 mit zunehmender Last wird die über das Einlaßventil zugeführte Frischgasmenge entsprechend dem zusätzlich eingespritzten Kraftstoff angepaßt geregelt.In order to maintain a value λ = 1 with increasing load, the over the The amount of fresh gas supplied to the inlet valve corresponds to that additionally injected Adjusted fuel adjusted.

Weitere Merkmale, Vorteile und vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen, sowie aus der nachstehenden Beschreibung der Erfindung.Further features, advantages and advantageous configurations of the invention result from the dependent claims, as well as from the following description of the Invention.

Erfindungsgemäß ist es vorgesehen, daß Abgas aus dem Abgastrakt bzw. im wesentlichen aus dem Abgaskrümmer über das Auslaßventil in denjenigen Brennraum eines Arbeitszylinders zurückgeführt wird, aus dem dieses Abgas zuvor ausgestoßen wurde. Hierzu wird im Ansaugtakt das Auslaßventil nochmals geöffnet, nachdem es im Ausschubtakt bereits wieder teilweise oder vollständig geschlossen war, so daß in der Abgasanlage befindliches Abgas in den Arbeitszylinder zurück gesaugt wird. Es entsteht eine zylinderförmige Abgaswolke in dem Arbeitszylinder. Bei einem Motor mit beispielsweise zwei Auslaßventilen wird zum Erreichen der "gerichteten" Rückströmung des Abgases nur ein Auslaßventil geöffnet.According to the invention it is provided that exhaust gas from the exhaust tract or in essentially from the exhaust manifold via the exhaust valve in that combustion chamber a working cylinder is returned from which this exhaust gas was previously ejected has been. For this purpose, the exhaust valve is opened again in the intake stroke after it is in the Extension stroke was already partially or completely closed, so that in the Exhaust system located exhaust gas is sucked back into the working cylinder. It arises a cylindrical exhaust gas cloud in the working cylinder. With an engine with For example, two exhaust valves are used to achieve the "directed" backflow of the exhaust gas only one exhaust valve opened.

Die Ventilsteuerung erfolgt beispielsweise elektrisch (elektromagnetisch/piezo), hydraulisch oder ähnlich. Das zündfähige Kraftstoff-Luft-Gemisch wird in einer Einspritzdüse mittels eines entsprechenden Einspritzsystems auf ca. λ = 1 gemischt und vor dem Zündzeitpunkt im Brennraum in den Bereich der Zündkerze "eingeblasen". Das Kraftstoff-Luft-Gemisch bleibt stabil im Brennraum stehen, so daß nur eine vernachlässigbare Vermischung an der Peripherie dieser Wolke mit dem vorhandenen Abgas erfolgt und somit eine stabile Entflammung sichergestellt ist. Die Abgasmenge wird über die Last geregelt.The valve control takes place, for example, electrically (electromagnetic / piezo), hydraulic or similar. The ignitable fuel-air mixture is in one Injector mixed to approx. Λ = 1 using a corresponding injection system and "blown" into the area of the spark plug before the ignition point in the combustion chamber. The The fuel-air mixture remains stable in the combustion chamber, so that only one negligible mixing on the periphery of this cloud with the existing one  Exhaust gas occurs and thus a stable ignition is ensured. The amount of exhaust gas is regulated by the load.

Bei zunehmender Last wird das Kraftstoff-Luft-Gemisch in der Einspritzdüse immer fetter, bedingt durch die entsprechend größer werdende Kraftstoffmenge. Damit ein Betrieb mit λ = 1 aufrecht erhalten wird, wird die Frischgasmenge über das Einlaßventil entsprechend geregelt.As the load increases, the fuel-air mixture in the injector always becomes richer, due to the correspondingly increasing amount of fuel. So that one Operation with λ = 1 is maintained, the amount of fresh gas through the inlet valve regulated accordingly.
