Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating a multi-stroke combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the decrease in combustion frequency reduces the maximum output, which can be described as the frequency of combustion times the maximum output per combustion.
  • the maximum output per combustion is determined by the geometry of the engine.
  • the system complexity is due to the requirements a combustion cycle sets in combination with the degree of freedom required for multi-stroke operation. Implicit with multi-stroke operation is that changes between two or more stroke modes have to be performed. A smooth transition between two such stroke modes places a high demand on the degree of freedom of the system.
  • a drawback with known systems for controlling multi-stroke engines is that the number of parameters in use for performing engine control is extensive. This increases the difficulty of performing a smooth transition between two different stroke modes.
  • An object of the invention is to reduce the difficulty of performing a smooth transition between two different stroke.
  • a further object is to reduce the number of parameters that has to be re-set when changing stroke mode of the engine, such that the difficulty of performing a smooth transition between two different stroke modes is reduced.
  • the method according to the invention makes use of the process steps of assigning a torque factor F i to at least two, and preferably each, different stroke operating mode in said set, wherein the torque factor is set such that the quota F i/ / N i is substantially the same for all stroke operating modes in said set.
  • the engine control parameters for said multi-stroke combustion engine are determined by a control unit using a stroke mode dependent torque signal as input signal.
  • the stroke mode dependent torque signal is formed from a signal corresponding to requested torque T as an input, which is multiplicated with said torque factor.
  • the combustion frequency is different in the different stroke modes. In the event a stroke mode where combustion occurs more frequently is used, each combustion should provide less power in order to ensure that the same mean output power is provided from the engine. Equivalently, in the event a stroke mode where combustion occurs less frequently is used, each combustion should provide more power in order to ensure that the same mean output power is provided from the engine.
  • the required power from each combustion is half of the required power from combustions in a 4 stroke mode in order to obtain the same mean output power from the engine.
  • the required power from each combustion is double the required power from combustions in a 4 stroke mode in order to obtain the same mean output power from the engine.
  • the multi-stroke engine is controlled to provide the same mean output power, independent of which stroke operating mode is used. This reduces the difficulty of performing a smooth transition between two different stroke by reducing the amount of data that has to be calibrated in the engine management system.
  • Figure 1 shows a block diagram of first part of a control system 1 for operating a multi-stroke combustion engine.
  • the engine is provided with a number of cylinders and two intake valves and two exhaust valves per cylinder.
  • the invention is equally applicable to engines with alternative numbers of valves per cylinder, e.g. two, three of five.

  • each valve can be individually activated with a hydraulic, pneumatic, electromagnetic, piezoelectric or any other known activation aid, controlled by the control system.
  • actuation of the intake valves the amount of air admitted to respective cylinder can be controlled.
  • Figure 1 show specifically a block diagram for calculating the opening and closing time of exhaust valves and intake valves provided in the cylinder.
  • a requested torque T is used as an input signal to a first part of the control system, which determines the opening and closing time of the intake and exhaust valves.
  • the requested torque T is preferably transformed into a requested indicated torque T ind from a requested braked torque T br before used as an input to the first part of the control system.

  • the engine can be operated in a plurality of different running modes.
  • the running modes may include, in addition to different stroke operating modes, different valve number modes and valve open modes, as will be described in more detail with reference to figure 2 .

  • the requested torque T is multiplied with the torque factor F at a second function block 3.
  • a stroke mode dependent torque signal T sm is thereby obtained.

  • the first set of maps include at least one map per stroke operating mode.
  • the calculation of the output signal corresponding to the exhaust valve opening time EVO j is done in a manner known to the person skilled in the art, for example via interpolation in a matrix.
  • An signal indicating in which running mode and in particular, in which stroke mode the engine is operating is generated from the first function block and used as an input signal for determination of which map in said first set of maps should be applied.
  • the stroke mode dependent torque signal T sm together with a signal corresponding to engine speed n are also used as input signals to a second set of maps 5 providing exhaust valve closing time EVC j for respective cylinder j as a function of said stroke mode dependent torque signal and engine speed n.
  • the second set of maps 5 include at least one map per stroke operating mode.

  19. Procédé selon la revendication 18, dans lequel l'écart entre le temps d'allumage donnant un couple de sortie optimal et le temps d'allumage réel est utilisé comme paramètre d'entrée dans la transformée entre le couple requis et la couple indiqué requis.
  20. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications précédentes, caractérisé en ce qu'un nombre de fréquences de combustion et un facteur de couple sont assignés à chaque mode d'actionnement de course différent dudit ensemble.
  21. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications précédentes, caractérisé en ce que ledit rapport est constant pour chaque mode d'actionnement de course différent dudit ensemble.
