Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To match the control of the opening angle of a throttle valve to the control of fuel injection and thus properly control an air-fuel ratio by setting the opening angle of the throttle valve with higher precision corresponding to a target intake air quantity to a value within the control limit for the target intake air quantity with an existing computer without using any variables of a larger intake air flow in transition and the like. SOLUTION: A total target in-stroke intake air quantity A is calculated in S91, and if an air quantity ΔMt corresponding to a delay level by fuel deposition set in the preceding routine is positive or negative, a maximum target in-stroke intake air quantity MGamax or a minimum target in-stroke intake air quantity MGamin is correspondingly increased or decreased in S94 or S96 respectively. The intake air quantity A is if necessary limited to the maximum or minimum value thus set and is employed as a target in-stroke intake air quantity MGa3 for fuel calculation in S97 to S101, upon which the fuel system sets a fuel injection quantity. The intake air system sets this ΔMt on the basis of the engine speed and MGa3 from its fuel- deposition-delay correction model, and subtracts ΔMt from MGa3 to obtain a target in-stroke intake air quantity MGa4 for throttle-opening angle setting to thereby set the control level of the throttle opening angle.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention sets a fuel injection amount according to a required output amount of a driver and variably controls a throttle valve opening to supply an intake air amount suitable for the required output to a cylinder. The present invention relates to an engine control device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, various techniques have been proposed to improve the responsiveness to a driver's required output by electronically controlling a throttle opening to obtain good running performance. For example, SA
E-paper 780346 (1978) or Tokuhei 3
JP-A-63654 discloses an accelerator pedal depression amount as a driver's required output amount, sets a fuel injection amount according to the accelerator depression amount, and adjusts the fuel injection amount, the engine speed, the engine temperature, and the like. Setting a target intake air amount for obtaining a predetermined air-fuel ratio on the basis of the target intake air amount, and setting a throttle valve opening degree which becomes a predetermined throttle passing air flow rate (an intake air flow rate passing through a throttle valve) from the target intake air amount; A technique of so-called fuel-driven control (or simultaneous fuel-air control) is disclosed.

In the prior art, the intake air flow rate sensor disposed upstream of the throttle valve detects the flow rate of air passing through the throttle, and the throttle valve opening is adjusted so that the detected flow rate of air passing through the throttle converges to the target intake air flow rate. Has feedback control. Thus, when the throttle valve opening is feedback-controlled based on the detection result of the intake air flow rate by the intake air amount sensor, the intake air amount is almost constant during steady running, so that the throttle valve opening can be slightly changed. By controlling, an accurate amount of air passing through the throttle can be obtained.

However, in recent high-powered engines, a relatively large-capacity air chamber is provided downstream of the throttle valve for reasons such as avoiding intake interference between cylinders. Sometimes, even if the throttle valve is suddenly opened according to the driver's required output (accelerator pedal depression amount), there is a certain delay in the actual amount of intake air supplied to the cylinder due to the delay of the intake charge relative to the chamber volume. It is not possible to immediately obtain an engine output that meets the driver's required output. On the other hand, since there is no delay in the injector as in the intake air system, a fuel injection amount corresponding to the driver's required output can be supplied to each cylinder.
If the fuel injection amount corresponding to the driver's output request is supplied as it is, the air-fuel ratio is temporarily over-rich and the transient response characteristic is degraded because the intake air system has a delay in filling the chamber volume.

In order to eliminate such a response delay caused by the volume of the chamber, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 5-65845 discloses a theoretical formula using a model for charging the chamber volume with the intake air, and the throttle valve is operated during the transition. A technique of compensating for a delay in charging each cylinder with intake air due to a chamber volume by operating overshoot is disclosed.

In this prior art, a throttle passage air flow rate is calculated based on a throttle opening degree and an intake pipe pressure downstream of the throttle valve, and the throttle valve opening degree is controlled based on the throttle passage air flow rate. ing.

[0007]

However, when the driver depresses the accelerator pedal in response to an acceleration request, even if the throttle valve is suddenly opened, the intake air flow does not immediately increase due to the influence of the intake inertia. Further, the amount of air exceeding the amount of intake air when the throttle valve is fully opened is not supplied to the engine. Therefore, in a transient state such as acceleration, even if the throttle valve is greatly opened beyond the opening corresponding to the amount of depression of the accelerator pedal, the amount of intake air supplied to the engine does not always increase rapidly. Also, when the throttle valve is in the vicinity of full opening, the throttle valve cannot be rapidly opened in an overshoot manner. In an engine that performs air-fuel ratio control by so-called fuel-driven control (or simultaneous fuel-air control), During a transient operation such as that described above, only the fuel injection amount supplied to the cylinder is unilaterally increased, and proper air-fuel ratio controllability cannot be obtained.

When the throttle valve is closed in response to a deceleration request due to a decrease in the accelerator pedal depression amount during traveling, the amount of intake air supplied to the cylinder is reduced until the intake air remaining in the chamber downstream of the throttle valve is consumed. If the fuel injection amount is reduced unilaterally at this time, the air-fuel ratio temporarily becomes lean, and the exhaust emission deteriorates. That is, the target intake air amount is set based on the driver's output request (in the case of deceleration traveling, a deceleration request due to a decrease in the accelerator pedal depression amount). For example, the accelerator pedal is released from the acceleration state in which the accelerator pedal is depressed. When the vehicle shifts to deceleration running, the target intake air amount is set to a value close to zero, and it is assumed that the throttle valve opening is fully closed to make the actual intake air amount follow this target intake air amount. However, while the intake air remaining in the chamber downstream of the throttle valve is supplied to the cylinder, the amount of intake air cannot be limited by the throttle valve, so that the control of the intake air is limited by the throttle valve opening.

Further, since a part of the fuel injected from the injector adheres to the intake port, the amount of fuel supplied to the cylinder is delayed. For this reason, in the conventional fuel attachment reverse model, the fuel attachment delay is offset by adding the fuel amount corresponding to the fuel attachment delay to the fuel injection amount.

However, for example, when a large load of fuel is transferred from a high load state adhering to the intake port to a low load state with the throttle valve fully closed instantaneously, the adhering fuel flows into the cylinder at once due to a decrease in the intake pipe pressure. . Therefore, when the amount of fuel flowing into the cylinder due to the adhering fuel exceeds the appropriate amount of fuel for the amount of intake air at that time, the air-fuel ratio becomes overrich even if the fuel injection amount is set to zero. In the conventional fuel adhesion reverse model, the fuel adhesion delay is offset by adding the fuel amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay to the fuel injection amount. Therefore, the fuel injection amount is controlled to a value other than the minimum value of zero. It is not possible to avoid an over-rich air-fuel ratio immediately after the throttle valve is fully closed from a high load state where a large amount of fuel is present, leading to deterioration of exhaust emission and demand for transient torque. However, there is a disadvantage that a stable air-fuel ratio cannot be obtained.

That is, conventionally, the setting of the target intake air amount in the transient state cannot always be set to a controllable value in accordance with the change of the actual intake air amount, and the throttle opening of the intake air system has not been set. The degree of consistency between the degree control and the fuel injection control of the fuel system is not always sufficient, and there has been a problem that an appropriate air-fuel ratio controllability cannot be obtained.

Further, in each of the above-mentioned prior examples, the intake air flow rate and the throttle passing air flow rate are adopted as basic quantities as parameters for controlling the throttle valve opening. In the region where the maximum horsepower is generated or the acceleration is suddenly increased spikes at the time of rapid acceleration, the dynamic range becomes 10,000 times or more, for example, in order to obtain an accuracy of 1/100, Very large dynamic range. Therefore, a high-speed, large-capacity computer is required to set the throttle valve opening to match the air flow rate with high accuracy, and an existing computer conventionally used for engine control has a heavy computational load and is satisfactory. Can not respond to.

In view of the above circumstances, the present invention reduces the computational load without directly using the variable of the intake air flow rate having a large dynamic range, and can cope with a target intake air amount in a transient state even with an existing computer. The throttle valve opening can be set appropriately with high accuracy, and the target intake air amount at the time of transition such as acceleration or deceleration can be adjusted in accordance with the change in the actual intake air amount without exceeding the control limit. It can be set to an appropriate value, and the consistency between the throttle opening control and the fuel injection control can be obtained, so that appropriate air-fuel ratio controllability can be obtained not only in a steady state but also in a transient state. An object of the present invention is to provide an engine control device.

After the knock detection signal from the knock sensor 34 is amplified to a predetermined level by the amplifier 74, a necessary frequency component is extracted by the frequency filter 75, and the A / D converter At 76, it is converted into a digital signal and input.

The main computer 51 processes detection signals from the sensors and switches, and performs various engine controls such as fuel injection control, ignition timing control, throttle opening control, and the like.
A sample period of the signal from knock sensor 34 is set based on the engine speed and the engine load. In this sample period, the signal from knock sensor 34 is A / D-converted at high speed and the vibration waveform is faithfully converted to digital data. Then, it is determined whether knock has occurred based on this data.

The output port of the I / O interface 67 of the sub-computer 61 is connected to the input port of the I / O interface 58 of the main computer 51. Output to the interface 58.
In the main computer 51, when the determination result indicating that knock has occurred is output from the sub-computer 61, knock data is read from the sub-computer 61 through the serial communication line via the SCI 57, and the corresponding cylinder is immediately determined based on the knock data. The ignition timing is delayed to avoid knocking.

In such an engine control system, when the ignition switch 82 is turned on, the power supply relay 8
0 is turned on, and in the main computer 51, a constant voltage is supplied to each section via the constant voltage circuit 71 to execute various controls. That is, the CPU 52 processes the detection signals from the sensors and switches, which are input via the I / O interface 58, the battery voltage VB, and the like according to the program stored in the ROM 53, and stores various data stored in the RAM 54. Based on various learning value data stored in the backup RAM 55, fixed data stored in the ROM 60, and the like, various control amounts are calculated.
Then, a drive signal corresponding to the calculated fuel injection amount is output to the injector 23 of the corresponding cylinder at a predetermined timing to perform fuel injection control, and a drive signal corresponding to the calculated throttle opening is output to the throttle actuator 20. Then, the throttle opening control is performed, and an ignition signal is output to the igniter 26 at a timing corresponding to the calculated ignition timing to execute the ignition timing control. Since the sub-computer 61 is a computer dedicated to knock detection processing, a detailed description of its operation will be omitted.

A function for executing the fuel injection control and the throttle opening control by the main computer 51 will be described with reference to FIG.

The amount of depression θacc of the accelerator pedal 19 is detected based on the output value of the first accelerator opening sensor 20a as the driver's required output amount (accelerator pedal depression amount detection 101) to obtain the driver's required output amount. , The target value of the stroke intake air amount (the mass of air taken in by one cylinder per intake stroke), that is, the accelerator pedal required stroke intake air amount MGa1 is calculated (accelerator pedal required stroke intake air amount calculation 102). Further, the engine speed Ne is calculated from the interval time of the crank pulse output from the crank angle sensor 40 (engine speed calculation 103), and the friction corresponding to canceling the engine friction with the idle speed based on the engine speed Ne is calculated. An idle required stroke intake air amount MGa2 that is balanced with the stroke intake air amount is set (idle required stroke intake air amount setting 104).
The total target stroke intake as the first target stroke intake air amount which becomes the target value of the execution stroke intake air amount Ga in which one cylinder inhales per intake stroke by adding each required stroke intake air amount MGa1, MGa2. The air amount A is calculated (total target stroke intake air amount calculation 105).

Then, in order to limit the impossible instruction value, the controllable upper limit value MGam of the total target stroke intake air amount A is set.
ax and the lower limit MGamin are calculated, and 1
When the intake air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay in one cylinder cycle is a positive value, the fuel adhesion delay equivalent air amount ΔMt is set to the upper limit M
The air amount ΔM equivalent to the fuel adhesion delay is added to Gamax.
The upper limit value MGamax is expanded in accordance with the time t, and when the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay indicates a negative value, the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is set to the lower limit MG.

06a, lower limit calculation 106b). Then, the total target stroke intake air amount A is set to an upper limit MGamax and a lower limit MGam.
limited by "in" (impossible indicated value limit 10
6) The total target stroke intake air amount A after this limit is adopted as the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount as the second target stroke intake air amount.

Then, based on the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for fuel amount calculation, the fuel injection amount Gf and the throttle opening control amount are set in the fuel system and the intake air system, respectively. That is, the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for fuel amount calculation is a target value for setting the fuel injection amount and the throttle valve opening.

In the fuel system, a dead time process for synchronizing the fuel system with the operation delay of the throttle actuator 20 of the intake air system is performed on the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount (dead time delay process 107). Then, the fuel injection amount Gf for obtaining the target air-fuel ratio is set based on the target stroke intake air amount MGa5 for calculating the fuel amount after the dead time processing (fuel injection amount setting 108), and the injector is set based on the fuel injection amount Gf. The fuel injection pulse width Ti is set for the fuel cell 23 (fuel injection pulse width setting 109).

In the intake air system, an intake air amount ΔMt corresponding to a fuel adhesion delay due to a part of the injected fuel adhering to the intake port wall surface during one cycle per cylinder is calculated by a fuel adhesion delay correction model formula. A third target stroke intake air amount serving as a reference when setting the throttle opening by subtracting the fuel adhesion delay corresponding air amount ΔMt set this time from the fuel amount calculation target stroke intake air amount MGa3 is used. The target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening is calculated (fuel adhesion delay correction model 110). After the correction of the fuel adhesion delay, the throttle opening is set by the inverse chamber model formula.

That is, the intake air amount Ga is calculated based on the intake pipe absolute pressure P1 downstream of the throttle valve 5a detected by the intake pipe pressure sensor 21 and the intake temperature (absolute temperature) T1 detected by the intake temperature sensor 33. At the same time, the maximum amount of air that can be supplied to the corresponding cylinder when the throttle valve is fully opened based on the throttle front pressure P2 upstream of the throttle valve 5a and the intake air temperature T1 detected by the throttle front pressure sensor 22 detected by the throttle front pressure sensor 22. An intake air amount Gamax is calculated for the execution (maximum execution intake air amount setting 112). Then, the execution air intake amount G

a4, and calculates an intake supply ratio SGa representing a ratio of the average value to the maximum execution intake air amount Gamax. The execution intake air amount Ga and the target stroke intake air for throttle opening setting are calculated. The amount of increase / decrease in the number of revolutions is calculated based on the amount MGa4, and the amount of increase / decrease in the number of revolutions is added to the current engine speed Ne to obtain an engine speed index value M
Ne is calculated, and the target throttle opening Mθt is calculated based on the intake air supply ratio SGa and the engine speed index value MNe.
h is set (target throttle opening setting 113).

Then, the target throttle opening Mθth
Is subtracted from the actual throttle opening θth detected by the throttle opening sensor 32a from the throttle opening difference Δθt.
h, and based on the throttle opening difference Δθth, the throttle actuator drive amount Dac as the throttle opening control amount for the throttle actuator 20 is calculated.
t is set (throttle opening degree control amount setting 114).

Each of these functions is realized by executing each routine shown in the flowcharts of FIGS. 4 to 18 as will be described later.

Next, the basic principle according to the present embodiment will be described. First, the depression amount θacc of the accelerator pedal 19 in the entire operation region from engine start to stop,
Based on various parameters indicating the engine operating state such as the engine rotation speed Ne, etc., a target value (hereinafter, referred to as “target stroke”) of a stroke intake air amount, which is an air mass [g] taken by one cylinder per intake stroke, after Δt. (Called "intake air volume"). Then, based on the target stroke intake air amount, the fuel injection amount for obtaining the predetermined air-fuel ratio is set, and the intake air amount supplied to the cylinder to obtain the predetermined air-fuel ratio becomes equal to the target stroke intake air amount after Δt time. So that the throttle valve 5
The dynamic opening of “a” is determined by a so-called reverse chamber model formula (when the target stroke intake air amount is determined, the throttle opening is determined by adjusting the stroke intake air amount after Δt time to the target stroke intake air amount. Is set by using an expression for determining whether to set each time.

For example, in a four-cycle four-cylinder engine, the air mass flow through the throttle AvQth [g / sec] at steady state
Can be easily expressed by the following formula, where the engine speed is Ne [rpm] and the target stroke intake air amount is MGa [g]. AvQth = 2Ne · MGa / 60 (1) However, in the steady state, MGa = Ga (Ga: the amount of intake air in the effective range).

Therefore, the throttle opening θ at that time is
th is also the engine speed Ne and the target stroke intake air amount MG
a. Here, the throttle opening degree θth can be expressed by the following function using a value normalized by the maximum execution intake air amount Gamax corresponding to the target stroke intake air amount MGa when the throttle valve is fully opened as a parameter. . θth = f (MGa / Gamax, Ne) (2) On the other hand, the mass air flow rate Qth passing through the throttle during transition is:
As shown in FIG. 24, it can be considered as a sum of a change amount (dM / dt) of the intake air mass in the chamber volume and an intake air mass flow rate (2Ne × Ga / 60) supplied to the engine.

Qth = dM / dt + 2Ne × Ga / 60 (3) Here, at the end of the intake stroke, assuming that the air densities in the chamber and each cylinder are substantially equal, the chamber volume is V and the stroke volume is Is D, the following relationship is established: M / V = Ga / D (4), and the change in the air mass M in the chamber is expressed by the formula of the intake air amount Ga as follows: dM / dt = V / D · dGa / dt (5)

Therefore, when the equation (5) is substituted into the equation (3), the transitional throttle passing air flow rate Qth becomes: Qth = (2Ne · Ga / 60) + (V / D) · dGa / dt (6) Therefore, Qth = AvQth + V / D · dGa / dt (7), which can be represented by a value obtained by adding the air change in the chamber to the steady throttle passing air flow rate AQth. Further, since V / D = constant, the transitional throttle passing air flow rate Qth is, as in the case of the steady throttle passing air flow rate AvQth, the intake air flow rate Ga and the engine speed Ne as shown in the above equation (6). And can be expressed as a function of

In the discrete time system, when the target stroke intake air amount MGa changes, the execution stroke intake air amount (the actual intake air amount supplied to the cylinder) Ga follows this change,
Assuming that the target stroke intake air amount MGa coincides with the target stroke intake air amount MGa after the Δt time (however, the engine speed within the Δt time is constant), as shown in FIG.
When the average throttle-passing intake air flow rate AQth within the time Δt is represented by a discrete time system using the value when Becomes Here, AGa is an average stroke intake air amount in a steady state.

As described above, when the target intake air amount MGa is set, the average stroke intake air amount AGa is given by: AGa = (Ga + MGa) / 2, assuming that the execution stroke intake air amount Ga follows this. (9) and the variation ΔG of the stroke intake air
a is ΔGa = MGa−Ga (10), and by substituting equations (9) and (10) into equation (8), AQth = 2Ne · ((Ga + MGa) / 2) / 60 + V / D · (MGa−Ga) / Δt (11), and the second term on the right side contains (60 · AGa) / (60 · A)
By multiplying by Ga), AGa = (Ga + MGa) / 2, so that

(Equation 1) Becomes

Average air flow AQ passing through throttle during transition
When th is deformed as in the above equation (12), MG of the equation (1) indicating the throttle passing air flow rate AvQth in a steady state.
Substituting (Ga + MGa) / 2 (a) into a, and substituting Ne + [60V · (MGa-Ga) / D · Δt · (Ga + MGa)] (b) into Ne, after Δt time It can be understood that the throttle passing air flow rate Qth can be derived. Here, (b)
The second term of the equation is an increase / decrease of the engine speed Ne.
The expression (b) becomes the engine speed index value MNe.

Accordingly, if the steady-state throttle passing air flow rate AvQth can be obtained, by modifying the value, it is possible to calculate the throttle passing air flow rate Qth after Δt time in the transient state. Become.

Incidentally, the throttle passing air flow rate Qth
Changes by a factor of 100 or more in a spike area when the maximum horsepower is generated or when the vehicle is suddenly accelerated with respect to a small flow rate such as when idling. That is, the throttle passing air flow rate Qth
Is a dimension based on time. For example, when the throttle valve 5a is fully opened at 700 rpm, the engine rotation speed is more than 10 times larger than when the throttle valve 5a is fully closed at 700 rpm.
If the rotation speed is 00 rpm, then at this time, 7
The throttle passing air flow rate Qth is 10 times larger than the throttle passing air flow rate Qth under 00 rpm. Therefore, when 10 × 10 = 100, the throttle passing air flow rate Qth becomes 100 times or more at the maximum engine speed with the throttle valve fully opened compared to the idling state. , 1/100, the dynamic range is 10,000 times or more, and the dynamic range is very large.

Accordingly, the throttle opening θ is determined by the throttle-passing air flow rate Qth having a large dynamic range.
In order to obtain high precision and the same control precision in all areas by setting th, the computational load on the computer must be increased, and a high-speed, large-capacity computer is required. However, existing computers that perform such operations have a heavy computational load and cannot respond satisfactorily.

On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the engine speed index value MNe and the maximum execution amount which is the supply amount when the throttle valve 5a is fully opened are obtained without directly obtaining the throttle passing air flow rate Qth. Intake air amount Ga
Average stroke intake air amount AGa for Δt time with respect to max
(= (Ga + MGa) / 2) and the throttle opening θ by referring to a map based on the intake air supply ratio SGa.
Set th.

[0067]

(Equation 2) Since the stroke intake air amount Ga and the target stroke intake air amount MGa coincide with each other in the steady state, the above equation (13) coincides with the above equation (2), and can be applied even in the steady state. That is, in other words, the setting of the throttle opening θth including the transient state can be performed by setting in the steady state. Conversely, in the steady state, the above equation (2) is used instead of the equation (13). The equation may be adopted to set the throttle opening θth.

That is, the ratio of the target stroke intake air amount MGa to the maximum execution stroke intake air amount Gamax is calculated to normalize the target stroke intake air amount (MGa / Gama).
x) The throttle opening control amount is set based on this value and the engine speed Ne.

In a conventional control system that employs the L jetronic system or the D jetronic system, after the intake air supplied to the cylinder is measured by an intake air amount sensor or an intake pipe pressure sensor, the intake air is measured. Setting the fuel injection quantity based on the quantity, the intake air system,
Due to the series relationship with the fuel system, during transition,
Delays in both the intake air system and the fuel system act additively.

For example, in the drive-by-wire system, after the accelerator pedal is depressed, an instruction to increase the engine torque, that is, a throttle opening instruction corresponding to the increase in the amount of depression of the accelerator pedal is output to the throttle actuator, and then the engine is actually depressed. Consider a delay in the follow-up property until the torque is increased. As shown in FIG. 33, in the intake system, (1) first, a delay in increasing the flow rate of air passing through the throttle occurs due to a delay in the operation of the throttle actuator, and (2) a delay in charging air into the intake chamber occurs.

As a result, the amount of intake air supplied to the cylinder at the time of transition is increased with a certain additional delay. Subsequent to the delay of the intake system, in the fuel system, (3) when the intake air amount is detected by a sensor in order to determine the fuel injection amount, the pulsation of the intake pipe pressure downstream of the throttle valve in the D jetronic method is used. Smoothing processing for removal is performed, and there is a delay inherent in the intake air amount sensor in the L-Jetronic method, so that a delay occurs in the measurement result regardless of which sensor is used,
(4) Next, a part of the fuel injected from the injector adheres to the intake port and flows into the cylinder by wall flow or re-evaporation, so-called adhesion delay occurs.

After all the delays in the intake air system and the fuel system act in series (addition), when the increased intake air and fuel both arrive in the cylinder, the engine torque is increased for the first time. You.

On the other hand, in the present embodiment, FIG.
As shown in FIG. 5, the intake air system and the fuel system are controlled in parallel. For example, when it is desired to increase the engine torque in a stepwise manner, the target stroke intake air amount MGa which is substantially proportional to the engine torque is determined. Set. In the fuel system, the fuel injection amount is set based on the target stroke intake air amount MGa. As a result, it is possible to control the fuel injection itself in the fuel system without delay, but there is a delay in which part of the fuel adheres to the intake port wall surface. The delay corresponding to the dead time shown in the drawing is a forced delay added to synchronize the fuel injection amount with the operation delay of the throttle actuator of the intake air system.

On the other hand, in the intake air system, the throttle opening is set by using the inverse chamber model so that the intake air arrives in the cylinder with as little delay as possible. Occurs. In addition, since the amount of fuel adhesion is delayed in the fuel system, the target stroke intake air amount is forcibly delayed in the intake air system in synchronization with the delay.

As a result, in the present embodiment, although there is a delay in fuel wall adhesion and a delay in the operation of the throttle actuator, since the fuel system and the intake air system are in a parallel relationship, as in the prior art, these The delay is not added, and the air-fuel ratio controllability and the followability of the engine torque are improved accordingly.

Hereinafter, the fuel injection control and the throttle opening control by the ECU 50 will be described with reference to flowcharts shown in FIGS. First, prior to the description of the fuel injection control and the throttle opening control, the intake loss mass and volume efficiency setting routine shown in FIG. 4 will be described. The intake loss mass and volume efficiency setting routine is executed every predetermined time (for example, 50 msec). In steps S1 and S2, the one-dimensional map is referred to with interpolation calculation based on the engine speed Ne and the intake loss mass ηb , And volume efficiency ηv are set, and the process exits the routine.

As shown in FIG. 20, the stroke intake air amount Ga
And the theoretical stroke intake air amount Gath calculated based on the gas density ρ1 are in a proportional relationship that can be substantially expressed by a linear function, and the volumetric efficiency ηv shows the slope thereof.
The intake loss mass ηb indicates a horizontal axis contact at which the actual stroke intake air amount Ga becomes zero before the theoretical stroke intake air amount Gath becomes a complete vacuum. Although the values of the volumetric efficiency ηv and the intake loss mass ηb are theoretically constant, they change at each engine speed due to the influence of cam tuning and the like, and therefore need to be set for each engine speed Ne. There is. FIG.
FIG. 1 shows an example of a one-dimensional map referred to when setting the intake loss mass ηb and the volume efficiency ηv. In the present embodiment, a one-dimensional map of eight grids is employed.

The intake loss mass ηb and the volumetric efficiency ηv
Is read in the throttle opening control routine shown in FIG. This throttle opening control routine is executed every predetermined time (for example, 10 msec), and calculates a physical quantity necessary for throttle opening control by a subroutine set for each step. In the following description, subroutines executed in each step will be sequentially described focusing on the throttle opening control routine shown in FIG.

<Step S11> In this step S11, an execution stroke intake air amount setting subroutine for setting the execution stroke intake air amount Ga shown in FIG. 6 is executed. In this subroutine for setting the intake air amount, as shown in FIG.
1, the air density ρ downstream of the throttle valve 5a based on the intake pipe absolute pressure P1 downstream of the throttle valve and the intake temperature T1.
1 is calculated from ρ1 ← P1 / (T1 · R). Here, R is a gas constant.

Then, in step S32, the stroke volume (1
The theoretical stroke intake air amount Gath is calculated by multiplying the intake volume ρ1 by the volume Vcy removed by the piston in the stroke) (Gath ← Vcy · ρ1). In step S33, the theoretical stroke intake air amount Gath is used as a basis. Then, the intake air amount Ga is calculated by a linear function of Ga ← (Gath−ηb) · ηv (see FIG. 20), and the routine exits.

<Step S12> In step S12,
A maximum execution intake air amount setting subroutine shown in FIG. 7 is executed. The maximum execution stroke intake air amount setting subroutine calculates a maximum execution stroke intake air amount Gamax, which is the maximum value of the stroke intake air amount Ga that can be taken in by one cylinder per one intake stroke.

First, in step S41, the throttle valve 5
The air density ρ2 downstream of the throttle valve 5a when the throttle is fully opened is calculated from ρ2 ← P2 / (T1 · R) based on the pre-throttle pressure P2 which is the upstream intake pipe pressure and the intake air temperature T1.

Next, at step S42, based on the air density ρ2, the theoretical stroke intake air amount G when the throttle is fully opened is calculated.
aWT is calculated from GaWT ← Vcy · ρ2. In step S43, the theoretical stroke intake air amount GaWT when the throttle is fully opened, and the intake loss mass η
Based on b and the volumetric efficiency ηv, the maximum executed intake air amount Gamax that can be supplied to the cylinder is calculated (Gam
ax ← (Gawt−ηb) · ηv), and exits the routine.

<Step S13> In step S13,
An accelerator pedal request stroke intake air amount setting subroutine shown in FIG. 8 is executed. First, at step S51, the accelerator pedal depression amount θacc is read, and at step S52
Then, the accelerator pedal request stroke intake air amount MGa1 is calculated from MGa1 ← K1θacc K1: constant, and the routine exits.

The accelerator pedal depression amount θacc reflects the driver's required output. In this subroutine, a target value of the stroke intake air amount corresponding to the driver's required output is set. In this embodiment, since the accelerator pedal request stroke intake air amount MGa1 is set as a function proportional to the accelerator pedal depression amount θacc, the throttle valve 5a is fully opened from, for example, 1000 [rpm]. In this case, a value that cannot be actually obtained is calculated as the accelerator pedal request stroke intake air amount MGa1 that is set based on the accelerator pedal depression amount θacc. In such a case,
Since the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax described later is limited, control is not disabled. In setting the accelerator pedal required stroke intake air amount MGa1, not only the accelerator pedal depression amount θacc, but also the engine speed Ne, the vehicle speed, the gear ratio, the slip ratio of the wheels, the inter-vehicle distance to the preceding vehicle, and the like. May be added.

<Step S14> In step S14,
An idle request stroke intake air amount setting subroutine shown in FIG. 9 is executed. In the idle required stroke intake air amount setting subroutine, the required stroke intake air amount M during idling is set.
Ga2 is set. First, in step S61, the engine speed Ne is read. In step S62, the one-dimensional map is referred to with interpolation calculation based on the engine speed Ne to set the idle request stroke intake air amount MGa2, and the routine exits.

FIG. 22 shows the characteristics of the one-dimensional map referred to in step S62. The idle required stroke intake air amount MGa2 is balanced with a friction-equivalent stroke intake air amount that cancels out engine friction at the idle rotational speed, and is set to a large value at a low rotational speed and a small value at a high rotational speed. Therefore, during idle operation,
In accordance with the above characteristics, the idling request stroke intake air amount MGa2
, Stable idling operation can be obtained.
In addition, various required items for idle control such as control of the cooling water temperature by the water temperature sensor 36, idle-up during air-conditioning operation, and target idle speed are added to the idle required process intake air amount MGa2 as correction terms. Thereby, more stable idle control can be performed.

<Step S15> In step S15,
A target stroke intake air amount upper limit value setting subroutine shown in FIG. 10 is executed. In the target stroke intake air upper limit value setting subroutine, an upper limit value of the target stroke intake air amount at which back calculation by the inverse chamber model formula becomes impossible is set.

First, in step S71, a target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax is calculated from the following equation based on the execution stroke intake air amount Ga, the engine speed Ne, and the preset maximum engine speed Nemax.

MGamax ← [(K2 + Nemax−Ne) / (K2 + Ne−Nemax)] · Ga (14) where K2 = 60V / (D · Δt), that is, a constant specified by the engine, and the maximum engine The rotation speed Nemax is a value having a certain margin with respect to the actual engine rotation speed limit (for example, 12000 [rp
m]), that is, a value higher than the actual limit rotational speed. In the present embodiment, as will be described later, the throttle opening is determined by referring to a map based on an intake supply ratio SGa indicating the ratio of the average stroke intake air amount to the maximum execution stroke intake air amount Gamax and the engine speed index value MNe. To set, the maximum value of the rotation speed grid of the map is set to the maximum engine rotation speed Nemax. If a value close to the actual engine speed limit is set as the maximum value of the speed grid, there is no room for controllability near the speed limit,
This is because control performance is hindered.

Then, in the step S72, the above (14)
The denominator (K2 + Ne-Nemax) of the first term on the right side of the equation is 0
It is determined whether (K2 + Ne−Nemax) ≦ 0, that is, if it indicates zero or a negative value, the process proceeds to step S7.
Then, the program proceeds to 3, the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax is set to infinity (MGamax ← ∞), and the routine exits. If it indicates a positive value, the flow branches to step S74, where the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax is compared with the maximum execution stroke intake air amount Gamax, and the maximum execution stroke intake air amount Gamax is set to the target stroke. If the intake air amount is equal to or more than the upper limit MGamax, the routine exits from the routine. On the other hand, if the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax exceeds the maximum execution stroke intake air amount Gamax, the process proceeds to step S75, and the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax is set to the maximum execution stroke intake air amount Gamax. (MGamax ← Gamax), and exits the routine.

Incidentally, the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGama
x is set for the following reason.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the throttle opening is set using the inverse chamber model equation.
The value of the target stroke intake air amount MGa, which is a factor for determining the engine speed index value MNe shown in the equation (13), is too large, and the engine speed index value MNe exceeds the maximum value of the rotation grid of the map. If so, theoretically correct air-fuel ratio control cannot be performed.

That is, the engine speed index value MNe of the above equation (13) is

(Equation 3) It is. Therefore, (K2 + Ne) of the denominator of the above equation (15)
When -Nemax) indicates zero or a negative value, it is not necessary to set the upper limit, and thus the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax is set to infinity in step S73.

On the other hand, when (K2 + Ne−Nemax) is a positive value and MGamax> Gamax, the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGam is determined in step S75.
ax is set as the maximum execution intake air amount Gamax. This is for the following reason.

(1) The target stroke intake air amount MGa does not exceed the maximum execution intake air amount Gamax. (2) The intake air supply ratio SGa shown in the above equation (13) is 1
(100%).

<Step S16> In step S16,
A target stroke intake air amount lower limit value setting subroutine shown in FIG. 11 is executed. In the target stroke intake air amount lower limit value setting subroutine, a lower limit value of the target stroke intake air amount at which back calculation by the inverse chamber model formula becomes impossible is set,
This prevents the target engine intake air amount MGa from becoming too small, so that the target engine speed index value MNe in the above equation (13) becomes a negative value. That is, for example, the throttle valve 5
Even when a is rapidly closed, since the air remaining in the chamber downstream of the throttle valve 5a is supplied to the cylinder for a while, the target stroke intake air amount MGa becomes too small, or a negative value that is physically impossible. As a result, if the engine speed index value MNe is set to a negative value, the calculation of the throttle opening cannot be performed.
The controllable lower limit is set in the subroutine.

First, in step S81, a target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin is calculated from the following equation based on the execution stroke intake air amount Ga and the engine speed Ne.

MGamin ← [(K2-Ne) / (K2
+ Ne)] · Ga Next, in step S82, it is determined whether the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin is a negative value, and a negative value (MGa) is determined.
If min <0, the routine proceeds to step S83, where the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin is set to zero (MGa
min ← 0), exits the routine, and if it is zero or a positive value (MGamin ≧ 0), exits the routine.

When the engine speed index value MNe is zero,
Alternatively, in order to indicate a positive value, the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin is determined as shown in step S81.

(Equation 4) Needs to be satisfied.

Since the target stroke intake air amount MGa cannot physically take a negative value, if the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin indicates a negative value in step S82, the process proceeds to step S83. Then, the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin is set to zero.

As a result, the target stroke intake air amount MGa is determined in steps S15 and S16 of the throttle opening control routine.
Upper limit MGamax and lower limit MGamin which can be controlled
, And as described later, this upper limit value MGamax
An instruction value for setting the fuel injection amount by limiting the total target stroke intake air amount A, which is the target value of the actual stroke intake air amount Ga in which one cylinder inhales per intake stroke, with the lower limit value MGamin. Target intake air amount MG for fuel amount calculation
By setting a3, in the fuel injection control, the fuel injection amount can be set in advance in a range in which the intake air amount in the intake air system can be controlled by the throttle opening control, and the total amount including the transient time can be set. Appropriate air-fuel ratio control can be performed in the operating range.

<Step S17> In step S17,
A fuel amount calculation target stroke intake air amount setting subroutine shown in FIG. 12 is executed. In the target stroke intake air amount setting subroutine for calculating the fuel amount, each required stroke intake air amount M
The target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount is set based on the sum of Ga1 and MGa2, and the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount is determined in step S15.
Target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGama set in S16
The upper and lower limits are set so as to fall within x and the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin.

First, in step S91, a total target stroke intake air amount A is calculated from the sum of the accelerator pedal required stroke intake air amount MGa1 and the idling required stroke intake air amount MGa2 (A ← MGa1 + MGa2), and step S92. Then, the air amount Δ
Read Mt.

Then, steps S93 to S96
Then, the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax and the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin are extended according to the value of the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel attachment delay.

In step S93, it is determined whether the air amount ΔMt equivalent to the fuel adhesion delay is a positive value. If the air amount ΔMt equivalent to the fuel adhesion delay is a positive value (ΔMt> 0), the flow proceeds to step S94. , The target stroke intake air amount upper limit MG
amax is updated by a value obtained by adding the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel attachment delay (MGamax ← MGamax + Δ
Mt), and jump to step S97. Further, the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is a negative value or zero (ΔMt ≦
In the case of (0), the process proceeds to step S95.

Then, when the process proceeds from step S93 to step S95, the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is obtained.
Is negative, and if negative (ΔMt <0),
Proceeding to step S96, the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin is updated with a value obtained by adding the fuel adhesion delay equivalent air amount ΔMt (MGamin ← MGamin).
+ ΔMt), and proceeds to step S97. On the other hand, when the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is zero (ΔMt = 0), the air amount Mt corresponding to the transient adhesion amount does not change, and the process directly proceeds to step S97.

As shown in FIG. 14, when calculating the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening, which will be described later, the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is calculated from the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount. Since the subtraction is known in advance, the target stroke intake air upper limit MGamax, depending on the value of the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay.
Alternatively, by expanding the lower limit MGamin of the target stroke intake air amount by the amount of air ΔMt corresponding to the fuel attachment delay, the response characteristic to a sudden torque request is improved, and the throttle of the intake air system is opened. Consistency between the degree control and the fuel injection control of the fuel system is achieved, so that appropriate air-fuel ratio controllability can be obtained.

Next, steps S97 to S10
0, the total target stroke intake air amount A calculated in step S91 is equal to the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax.
The upper and lower limits are set so as to fall between the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin and the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin.

First, in step S97, the total target stroke intake air amount A becomes equal to the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGama.
x is exceeded and when it is exceeded (A> MG
amax) proceeds to step S98, where the total target stroke intake air amount A is set to the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax.
Is set (A ← MGamax), and the process jumps to step S101. When the total target stroke intake air amount A is equal to or less than the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax, (A
≦ MGamax), the process proceeds to step S99, and the total target stroke intake air amount A becomes the target stroke intake air amount lower limit value MGam.
is determined to be lower than (A <MGam).
in), the process proceeds to step S100, the total target stroke intake air amount A is set at the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin (A ← MGamin), and the process proceeds to step S101.
The total target stroke intake air amount A is equal to the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax and the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGa.
min (MGamax ≧ A ≧ MGa
min), and proceeds directly to step S101.

Then, in step S101, the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for fuel amount calculation is set based on the total target stroke intake air amount A, and the routine exits.

<Step S18> In step S18,
A fuel attachment delay equivalent air amount setting subroutine shown in FIG. 13 is executed. In the fuel attachment delay-equivalent air amount setting subroutine, it is assumed that there is an attachment delay (see FIG. 27) with respect to the amount of fuel supplied to the cylinder, by which a part of the fuel injected from the injector 23 adheres to the intake port wall surface. ,
The air-fuel ratio is optimized by delaying the amount of intake air in the intake air system in accordance with the above-described fuel attachment delay.

First, in step S121, a first-order lag time constant τ relating to fuel adhesion delay is set based on the engine speed Ne by referring to a one-dimensional map with interpolation calculation.

For example, a steady amount Mx of fuel adhering to the intake port is determined for each engine operating region, and the transient amount Mt of fuel deposited during a transition from one operating region to another operating region has a first-order lag. In the case where the following is performed so as to follow the steady fuel adhesion amount Ms ′ in the new operation region, such a first-order lag time constant τ is also determined for each operation region. As shown in FIG. 26A, the one-dimensional map shows that the flow rate of the intake air passing through the intake port becomes faster as the engine speed Ne shifts to a higher speed.
A first-order lag time constant τ that is gradually shorter is stored.

Next, at step S122, the engine speed Ne and the target stroke intake air amount MGa for calculating the fuel amount are calculated.
3, the port intake air flow rate Q per intake port
p is calculated from the following equation. Qp ← (Ne · MGa3) / K3 [mg / 10 ms] (17) Here, K3 is a constant determined by the engine to be used, and in the case of a 4-cycle 4-cylinder engine, the calculation cycle is 1
Since it is 0 ms, K3 = 2.60-100. However, the fuel adhesion delay is remarkable in a low load and low rotation operation region, and hardly causes a problem in a high load and high rotation region (for example, 6000 [rpm] or more).
In the high rotation region, the port intake flow rate Qp may be a constant value.

Next, in step S123, the one-dimensional map is referred to with the interpolation calculation based on the port intake air flow rate Qp to set the air amount Ms corresponding to the steady adhesion amount. The air amount Ms corresponding to the steady adhesion amount is determined by setting the target air-fuel ratio to the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio (14.
6) and the like, and is a value that is set by multiplying the stationary adhesion amount Mx by the air-fuel ratio. As shown in FIG. 26B, as the port intake air flow rate Qp increases, As the operating range shifts to high load and high rotation,
The change in the air amount Ms corresponding to the steady adhesion amount gradually decreases.

Thereafter, in step S124, the previous time (10 m
s before), the set transient adhesion amount equivalent air amount Mt is set as the previous transient adhesion amount equivalent air amount MtOLD, and step S125 is performed.
Then, the currently set steady adhesion amount equivalent air amount Ms and the previously set transient adhesion amount equivalent air amount Mt are weighted and averaged based on the following equation to calculate the current transient adhesion amount equivalent air amount Mt.

Mt ← [Mt · (τ−1) + Ms] / τ Next, the process proceeds to step S126, and based on the previously calculated transient adhesion amount-equivalent air amount MtOLD and the currently calculated transient adhesion amount-equivalent air amount Mt, the next step is performed. From the equation, the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel attachment delay during one cylinder and one cycle is calculated, and the routine exits.

ΔMt ← (Mt−MtOLD) · T2 / 10 [ms] Here, T2 is the time required for one cycle of one cylinder, that is, two rotation times.

As described above, the response is somewhat improved by assuming the arrival delay in the cylinder due to the adhesion of the fuel to the wall surface using the fuel adhesion model formula and delaying the intake air system in accordance with the fuel adhesion delay. While sacrificing, a stable air-fuel ratio can be obtained even for a complicated and drastically changing transient torque requirement, and a smooth transient torque characteristic and improved exhaust emission can be achieved.

As described above, in this embodiment, the fuel adhesion model is used in the intake air system as a forward model.
For example, when a high load state in which a large amount of fuel has adhered to the intake port shifts instantaneously to a low load state, the amount of fuel in which the adhered fuel flows into the cylinder exceeds the appropriate fuel amount for the intake air amount at that time. In this case, even if the fuel injection amount is set to zero, the fuel becomes over-rich. In such a case,
In the conventional fuel adhesion reverse model, the fuel adhesion delay is offset by adding the fuel amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay to the fuel injection amount. Therefore, the fuel injection amount is controlled to a value other than the minimum value of zero. Although it is impossible to avoid the air-fuel ratio over-rich, it is not possible to avoid the fuel adhering delay in the intake air system as described above. In addition, the intake air amount is set, and appropriate air-fuel ratio control can be performed even during a transition.

<Step S19> In step S19,
A throttle opening setting target stroke intake air amount setting subroutine shown in FIG. 14 is executed. In this throttle opening setting target stroke intake air amount setting subroutine, a throttle opening setting target stroke intake air amount MGa4 which is an intake air amount corresponding to the fuel amount supplied into the cylinder is calculated.

That is, in step S131, the air amount .DELTA.Mt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is subtracted from the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount, and the target intake air amount corresponding to the fuel amount flowing into the cylinder after .DELTA.t time has elapsed. A target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening, which is a value, is calculated (MG
a4 ← MGa3-ΔMt), and exit the routine.

Here, the air amount Δ corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay.
When Mt is a positive value (ΔMt> 0), the fuel injection amount increases due to an acceleration request or the like due to an increase in the accelerator pedal depression amount θacc, and the amount of the attached fuel this time becomes larger than the amount of the attached fuel last time (10 ms before). This indicates that the amount of fuel actually supplied to the cylinder decreases with respect to the amount of fuel injected from the injector 23, and the amount of air corresponding to the fuel attachment delay is calculated from the target amount of intake air MGa3 for calculating the amount of fuel. ΔM
The target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening which becomes a target value for setting the throttle opening by subtracting t
By calculating the air-fuel ratio, it is possible to set the throttle opening to obtain the amount of intake air that matches the amount of fuel supplied into the cylinder, and obtain the appropriate air-fuel ratio that matches the target transient air-fuel ratio. Controllability is improved.

When the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is a positive value, as described above, the target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax for setting the upper limit is set to the fuel adhesion delay equivalent air amount. Since it is extended by the amount ΔMt, the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening is set.
Is consequently limited by the original target stroke intake air amount upper limit MGamax set based on the execution stroke intake air amount Ga and the engine speed Ne. Unnecessarily reduced by the amount corresponding to the minute equivalent air amount ΔMt is prevented, and the throttle opening setting target stroke intake air amount MGa4, which is an instruction value for setting the throttle opening, is effectively increased to an allowable limit. It can be set.

On the other hand, the air amount ΔM corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay
When t is a negative value (ΔMt <0), the throttle valve is rapidly closed due to a deceleration request due to a decrease in the accelerator pedal depression amount θacc, and the adhering fuel is separated from the port wall surface by the intake pipe negative pressure. This indicates that the amount of deposited fuel this time decreases with respect to the amount of deposited fuel in the previous case, and that the amount of fuel supplied to the cylinder increases by supplying this deposited fuel to the cylinder. Is a negative value at this time, and the target stroke intake air amount M for fuel amount calculation is
By subtracting the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel attachment delay from Ga3, the target stroke for setting the throttle opening, which is a target value for setting the throttle opening as a result, the intake air amount MGa4 is the target stroke for calculating the fuel amount. The intake air amount MGa3 is increased by the amount of air ΔMt corresponding to the fuel attachment delay, thereby opening the throttle to obtain an intake air amount suitable for the amount of fuel supplied into the cylinder even during deceleration. The degree can be set, an appropriate air-fuel ratio suitable for the target transient air-fuel ratio is obtained, and the air-fuel ratio controllability is improved.

Further, when the fuel adhesion delay equivalent air amount ΔMt is a negative value, as described above, the target stroke intake air amount lower limit MGamin for setting the lower limit is set to the fuel adhesion delay equivalent air amount. Because the amount is expanded to the lower limit side by the amount ΔMt, the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening is consequently the original stroke air amount Ga set based on the execution stroke intake air amount Ga and the engine speed Ne. The target stroke intake air amount is limited by the lower limit value MGamin, and the control allowable lower limit is prevented from being unnecessarily increased by an amount corresponding to the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel attachment delay, and the throttle opening is set. It is possible to effectively set the target opening intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening, which is an instruction value for performing this operation, to an allowable limit.

By the way, due to its nature, the air amount ΔMt corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay decreases in the direction to cancel the change when the fuel amount calculation target stroke intake air amount MGa3 increases or decreases, that is, the amount of fuel increase. Therefore, the change range of the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening is always smaller than the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount. Therefore, in step S131, when the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening is obtained by subtracting the fuel adhesion delay equivalent air amount ΔMt from the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount, the throttle opening setting is performed. The target stroke intake air amount MGa4 overflows,
There is no underflow, and there is no need to set those limits.

<Step S20> In step S20,
A target throttle opening setting subroutine shown in FIG. 15 is executed. In the target throttle opening setting subroutine, the target throttle opening Mθth is set by referring to the throttle opening map with interpolation calculation based on the intake air supply ratio SGa and the engine speed index value MNe shown in the above equation (13). .

First, in step S141, the intake supply ratio SGa is calculated based on SGa ← [(Ga + MGa4) / 2] / Gamax (13-1). Then, in step S142, the engine speed index value MNe is calculated. MNe ← Ne + [(MGa4-Ga) / (Ga + MGa4)] · K2 (13-2) where K2 = 60V / (D · Δt).

In step S143, a target throttle opening Mθth is set by referring to a throttle opening map (see FIG. 23) with interpolation calculation based on the intake air supply ratio SGa and the engine speed index value MNe. Exit the routine.

As described above, in the steady state, the actual stroke intake air amount Ga and the target stroke intake air amount MGa, that is, the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening, coincide with each other. The target throttle opening Mθth can be set by referring to the throttle opening map. That is, the intake air supply ratio SGa in the steady state is SGa = MGa4 / Gamax (13-1 ′), and the engine speed index value MNe is MNe = Ne (13-2 ′).

In other words, the maximum execution stroke intake air amount Gamax of the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening is set.
To the intake air supply ratio SGa (= MGa
/ Gamax), and calculates this value and the engine speed Ne.
The throttle opening map is referenced with interpolation calculation to set a target throttle opening Mθth. Based on the target throttle opening Mθth, a throttle actuator drive amount Dact as a throttle opening control amount for the throttle actuator 20 is set. Set.

Therefore, there is no need to specially set a transient map as the above throttle opening map. As shown in FIG. 23, a steady throttle opening map set by a non-uniform grid is used. Sometimes, the target throttle opening Mθth can be changed simply by changing the values of the intake air supply ratio SGa and the engine speed index value MNe according to the transient state.
Can be set.

Here, in a region where the intake air supply ratio SGa and the engine speed are large, the target throttle opening degree, that is, the target throttle opening Mθth greatly changes with a slight change in the intake air supply ratio SGa or the engine speed. I do. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 23, the throttle opening map is made to correspond to this, and each parameter, that is, the intake supply ratio SGa and the engine speed index value MNe, is set.
Are set at irregular intervals, and the grid is widened in a region where the intake air supply ratio SGa and the engine speed index value MNe are large, so that the setting can be appropriately performed. The throttle opening Mθth can be obtained. The throttle actuator drive amount Dact is set appropriately and with high accuracy based on the target throttle opening Mθth, so that the throttle opening controllability is improved.

In this embodiment, the target throttle opening M
When setting θth, the actual stroke intake air amount Ga, the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening, and the actual stroke intake air amount that each cylinder inhales per intake stroke without directly obtaining the throttle passing air flow rate having a large dynamic range. And a transient target throttle opening M as well as in a steady state using a map in a steady state from each variable of the engine speed Ne.
Since θth is also set, each stroke intake air amount is based on one intake stroke, and the dynamic range is 1/10 of the throttle passing air flow rate Qth.
The dynamic range of the engine speed Ne during operation is also from the idle speed to the maximum engine speed, and the dynamic range is extremely small with respect to the throttle passing air flow rate Qth.

Therefore, the dynamic range of a variable used when setting the throttle actuator drive amount Dact as the throttle opening control amount is small, and proper throttle opening control over the entire operating range can be performed without burdening the computer. You can do it.

Further, by calculating the engine speed index value MNe using the above equation (13-2), a self-recovery function for the throttle opening error is provided. In other words, if there is an error in the throttle opening and the actual intake air amount Ga does not coincide with the throttle opening setting target stroke intake air amount MGa4, according to the above equation (13-2), if the actual intake air amount Ga is When the amount Ga is larger than the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening, the engine speed index value MNe is set lower than the actual engine speed Ne.

The throttle opening map in the steady state shows that the target throttle opening Mθt becomes smaller as the engine speed index value MNe becomes lower, when the intake air amount Ga is kept constant as the execution proceeds.
h is set. Therefore, when the throttle opening map is referred to based on the engine speed index value MNe, the throttle opening is automatically controlled in the closing direction.
As a result, the executed stroke intake air amount Ga is corrected to a small value, and the executed stroke intake air amount Ga follows the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening. Similarly, when the execution stroke intake air amount Ga is smaller than the throttle stroke setting target stroke intake air amount MGa4, the throttle opening θth is automatically corrected in the opening direction.
It follows the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening.

More specifically, the constant K2 is K2 = 60V / (D ／ Δt), for example, V / D = 4, Δt = 1/100 [sec].
K2 = 24000 [rpm], and when a deviation of 1% occurs between the execution stroke intake air amount Ga and the target stroke intake air amount MGa4 for setting the throttle opening, about 120 [rpm] in a normal engine ] To refer to the throttle opening map. Further, even with the same shift of 120 [rpm], the change in the throttle opening increases as the rotation speed decreases, due to the characteristics of the throttle opening map. Therefore, the self-recovery function for the throttle opening error acts more strongly at a low rotation speed at which the throttle opening error easily occurs, and the constant K2 (= 24000 [rp]
m]) can be regarded as a P gain for error feedback during throttle opening control.

<Step S21> In step S21,
A throttle actuator drive amount setting subroutine shown in FIG. 16 is executed. First, in step S151, the actual throttle opening θth detected based on the output value of the throttle opening sensor 32a is read, and in step S152,
From the target throttle opening Mθth to the actual throttle opening θt
By subtracting h, the throttle opening difference Δθth is calculated. Δθth ← Mθth−θth Then, in step S153, the throttle opening difference Δθ
The one-dimensional map is referenced with interpolation calculation based on th, or the throttle actuator drive amount Da is calculated by calculation or the like.
ct is set, and in step S154, the throttle actuator drive amount Dact is output to the throttle actuator 20 connected to the throttle valve 5a, and the routine exits.

As a result, the opening of the throttle valve 5a is controlled such that the execution stroke intake air amount Ga follows the throttle stroke setting target stroke intake air amount MGa4.

As shown in FIG. 19, in the transient state when the operating range changes, the throttle opening setting target stroke intake air amount MGa4 changes stepwise, whereas the throttle opening changes in the chamber. In many cases, an overshoot-like change is required as much as the charged air is present. However, the actual intake air amount Ga detected based on the output value of the intake pipe pressure sensor 21 is the target stroke intake air amount M for setting the throttle opening.
By providing the throttle actuator 20 having a high operation speed that can follow Ga4 as much as possible, it is possible to further improve the throttle opening degree control executed in this routine.

Next, the control of the fuel system will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. However, FIG.
As shown in FIG. 7, there is a fuel adhesion delay due to the adhesion of the intake port wall as a delay of the fuel system. Since the fuel adhesion delay is synchronized with the intake air system as described above, this fuel injection amount setting routine is performed. Here, basically, a fuel injection amount suitable for the target air-fuel ratio is set based on the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for fuel amount calculation. Note that this fuel injection amount setting routine is executed every 10 msec.

First, in step S161, the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for fuel amount calculation is read.
At 162, the dead time setting subroutine shown in FIG. 18 is executed to synchronize the fuel system with the operation delay of the throttle actuator 20 of the intake air system, and the rich spike of the air-fuel ratio during the transition caused by the operation delay of the throttle actuator 20; Prevent lean spikes.

In this dead time setting subroutine, the target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for calculating the fuel amount stored in the predetermined registers M1 to M5 is sequentially advanced in steps S171 to S175, and step S171 is executed.
At 50 msec stored in the register M5
The target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for fuel amount calculation previously set
Is set as the current target stroke intake air amount MGa5 for fuel amount calculation. In step S176, the currently read target stroke intake air amount MGa3 for fuel amount calculation is stored in the register M1, and the routine exits.

Then, returning to step S163 of the fuel injection amount setting routine, the fuel injection amount is calculated based on the target stroke intake air amount MGa5 for the fuel amount calculation, which has been subjected to the dead time processing, and the target fuel-air ratio (F / A). Gf is set, and Gf ← MGa5 · (F / A) In step S164, the fuel injection pulse width Ti for the injector 23 that determines the fuel injection amount based on the following equation is set: Ti ← KA / F · α · Gf / Ne + Ts Exit the routine.

Here, KA / F is an injector characteristic correction constant, α is an air-fuel ratio feedback correction coefficient, and Ts is a voltage correction pulse width for interpolating the invalid injection time of the injector 23 based on the terminal voltage VB of the battery 57. .

As described above, in the fuel system, the fuel injection pulse width Ti is set based on the target stroke intake air amount MGa5 for calculating the fuel amount obtained from the engine state irrespective of the actual stroke intake air amount Ga. In the air system, a target stroke intake air amount MGa4 on the intake air side is set such that a predetermined air-fuel ratio is obtained based on the fuel amount flowing into the cylinder, and the execution stroke intake air amount Ga follows the target stroke intake air amount MGa4. The throttle opening can be set in such a manner that the so-called fuel-driven control can be executed in the entire operation range. Therefore, even if a malfunction such as the sticking of the throttle valve occurs, the fuel injection amount is related to the air flow through the throttle. It is possible to avoid unexpected situations such as sudden acceleration. Further, since the fuel injection amount and the throttle opening for obtaining the stroke intake air amount for obtaining the predetermined air-fuel ratio suitable for this fuel injection amount are set at the same time, good air-fuel ratio control performance can be obtained even in the transient state. I can do it.

In the present embodiment, the accelerator pedal depression amount θacc is used as the driver's required output amount. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the engine can be manually operated by operating the throttle lever. In the case of an engine with variable output, the operation amount of the throttle lever is adopted as the required output amount of the driver.

It is also possible to apply the automatic operation control by operating the accelerator operation with an electronic control device such as a microcomputer. In this case, the driver includes not only the personnel but also the control device. It is a thing.

[0152]

As described above, according to the first or second aspect of the present invention, the stroke intake air amount that is taken in one cylinder per intake stroke without using the intake air flow rate is adopted. Based on the first and second intake pipe pressures generated upstream and downstream of the throttle valve, respectively, the effective intake air amount and the maximum effective intake air amount corresponding to the full opening of the throttle valve are set. A first target stroke intake air amount is set as a target value of an intake air amount that one cylinder takes in per intake stroke based on the required amount.
According to the first aspect of the present invention, when the intake air amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay in one cylinder and one cycle previously set indicates a positive value, the above-described execution intake air amount A target stroke intake air amount upper limit value, which is a controllable upper limit value of the first target stroke intake air amount set based on the engine speed and a preset maximum engine speed, corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay. The air amount is expanded by adding the air amount, and the upper limit of the first target stroke intake air amount is limited by the target stroke intake air amount upper limit value. On the other hand, in the second aspect of the present invention, when the previously set intake air amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay shows a negative value, the first value set based on the actual intake air amount and the engine speed is set. The target stroke intake air lower limit value, which is the controllable lower limit value of the target stroke intake air amount, is extended by adding the air amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay, and the first stroke intake air amount lower limit value is set at the target stroke intake air amount lower limit value. The lower limit of the target stroke intake air amount is limited. In this way, the first target stroke intake air amount is limited by the upper limit value or the lower limit value to become the second target stroke intake air amount, and for the fuel system, based on the second target stroke intake air amount. Set the fuel injection amount,
For the intake air system, the air corresponding to the current fuel adhesion delay corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay in one cylinder per cycle is obtained by a fuel adhesion delay correction model based on the engine speed and the second target stroke intake air amount. Set the amount
The third target stroke intake air amount, which is an instruction value for setting the throttle valve opening, is calculated by subtracting the air amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay set this time from the target stroke intake air amount of the target stroke. Intake supply ratio indicating how much the average value of the air amount and the third target stroke intake air amount corresponds to the maximum execution stroke intake air amount, the execution stroke intake air amount, and the third target stroke intake air. The throttle opening control amount for the throttle actuator connected to the throttle valve is set based on the engine speed index value calculated by adding the increase / decrease of the speed calculated based on the amount to the current engine speed. , The second target stroke intake air amount used when setting both the fuel injection amount of the fuel system, the intake air system, and the throttle valve opening is changed in accordance with the actual throttle passage air that changes according to the throttle valve opening. It is set to a value along the flow, and,
The second target stroke intake air amount is set to a controllable value without exceeding the control limit. Even during a transition such as acceleration or deceleration, an appropriate fuel injection amount in both the fuel system and the intake air system can be obtained. And the throttle opening can be set.

The first target stroke intake air amount, which is the target value of the effective stroke intake air amount that one cylinder takes in per intake stroke, is defined as the target stroke intake air upper limit value or the target stroke intake air lower limit value. In the fuel injection control, the control of the intake air amount in the intake air system by the throttle opening control is performed in order to set the second target stroke intake air amount which is an instruction value for setting the fuel injection amount. The fuel injection amount can be set in advance within a possible range, and appropriate air-fuel ratio control can be performed in the entire operation range including the transition period.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, when the air amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is a positive value, the target stroke intake air amount upper limit value for setting the upper limit side limit value is equal to the fuel adhesion delay amount. Since the air amount is expanded by the air amount, it is possible to prevent the allowable upper limit of the third target stroke intake air amount from being unnecessarily reduced by the amount corresponding to the fuel amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay, and to set the throttle opening. Can be effectively set up to the allowable limit. On the other hand, in the second aspect of the invention, when the air amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay is a negative value, the target stroke intake air amount lower limit value for setting the lower limit value is determined by the air amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay. Is expanded to the lower limit side, so that the third
The target lower limit of the intake air amount of the target stroke is prevented from being unnecessarily increased by an amount corresponding to the air amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay, and is used as a throttle opening setting value which is an instruction value for setting the throttle opening. The target stroke intake air amount can be effectively set to the allowable limit, and the throttle opening control amount can be set appropriately to the control allowable limit.

Using the fuel adhesion delay correction model, the arrival delay in the cylinder due to the adhesion of fuel to the wall surface is assumed, and the fuel adhesion delay due to part of the injected fuel adhering to the intake port wall surface is taken into consideration. In order to set a third target stroke intake air amount which is an instruction value for setting the throttle opening,
It is possible to set a throttle opening for obtaining an intake air amount suitable for the amount of fuel supplied into the cylinder, and to obtain an appropriate air-fuel ratio suitable for a target transient air-fuel ratio. Furthermore, the fuel system and the intake air system are in a parallel relationship, improving the followability of the engine torque, and achieving a stable air-fuel ratio even when transient torque is required. , And a smooth transient torque characteristic can be obtained, and the exhaust emission can be improved.

Therefore, by the above synergy, the consistency between the throttle opening control and the fuel injection control can be appropriately obtained not only in the steady state but also in the transient state, and the appropriate air-fuel ratio controllability can always be obtained. .

Further, since the stroke intake air amount which is taken in one cylinder per intake stroke is adopted without using the intake air flow rate, the variable used when setting the throttle opening has a small dynamic range, The calculation load is reduced as compared with the case where the throttle opening is calculated using a variable with a large dynamic range called the intake air flow rate,
Even with the existing computer, the throttle valve opening corresponding to the target intake air amount can be set with high accuracy.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, in addition to the effects of the first or second aspect of the present invention, a first-order lag time constant relating to a fuel adhesion delay is set as a fuel adhesion delay correction model based on the engine speed. A port intake flow rate per intake port is calculated based on the engine speed and the first target stroke intake air amount. Based on the port intake flow rate, a steady deposit amount corresponding to a steady fuel deposit amount is calculated. The equivalent air amount is set, and the previously set transient adhesion amount equivalent air amount and the steady attachment amount equivalent air amount are weighted and averaged using the first-order lag time constant. The amount of intake air corresponding to the amount of adhesion is calculated, and the amount of air equivalent to the amount of fuel adhesion delay in one cylinder per cycle is set based on the amount of air corresponding to the transient amount of adhesion before and this time. The fuel adhesion delay correction model will be used in the intake air system as it is in the forward model, and when a large amount of fuel immediately shifts from a high load state adhering to the intake port to a low load state, this large amount of adhering fuel When the amount of fuel flowing into the cylinder by being supplied into the cylinder exceeds the appropriate amount of fuel with respect to the amount of intake air at that time, and the fuel becomes over-rich even when the fuel injection amount is zero, the conventional fuel deposition In the inverse model, the fuel adhesion delay is offset by adding the fuel amount corresponding to the fuel adhesion delay to the fuel injection amount. Is not possible, it is not possible to avoid air-fuel ratio over-rich, but on the other hand, to correct the fuel adhesion delay in the intake air system by the forward model, there is no calculation impossible region, The intake air amount is set in accordance with the amount of adhering fuel flowing into the inside, so that more appropriate air-fuel ratio control can be performed even during a transition, and the calculation of the forward model also reduces the calculation load on the computer. Has the effect of

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, in addition to the effects of the first or second aspect of the present invention, by using an accelerator pedal depression amount as the required output amount, the present invention can be applied to a vehicle engine. It can be easily applied to engine control.
