Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Bestimmung mindestens einer Verbrennungsgröße (λ) eines Verbrennungsvorgangs im Brennraum (2) eines Verbrennungsmotors (1) bei dynamischem Motorbetrieb, wobei ein während des Verbrennungsvorgangs im Brennraum (2) infolge einer Prüfspannung (P) erzeugtes lonisationssignal (IS) mittels eines die dynamische Änderung der Brennraumgeometrie (2a, 2b, 2c) berücksichtigenden Werteverlauf (LG, L'G) korrigiert wird.
