Method for the torque-oriented control of an internal combustion engine
View Patent ↗A method for the torque-oriented control of an internal combustion engine in which a set torque is computed from an input variable that represents the desired power, and the set torque is limited to an air mass-dependent maximum torque.
1. A method for torque-oriented control of a supercharged internal combustion engine, comprising the steps of: computing a set torque (MSW) from an input variable that represents a desired power; and determining a power-determining signal (ve) for controlling the driving torque of the internal combustion engine as a function of the set torque (MSW), wherein the set torque (MSW) is limited by an air mass-dependent maximum torque (ML(MAX)), wherein during one-supercharger operation the maximum torque (ML(MAX)) corresponds to charge pressure limitation torque (MLDA), and wherein when an additional exhaust turbocharger is switched on, the maximum torque (ML(MAX)) is determined from a supercharger switch torque (MAX).
2. The method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the charge pressure limitation torque (MLDA) is computed from a fuel mass (mKR) and an actual efficiency factor (ETAt).
3. The method in accordance with claim 2 , further including computing fuel mass (mKR) from an input-output map as a function of an air mass (mL) and an actual speed (nm(IST)) of the internal combustion engine.
4. The method in accordance with claim 1 , including computing the supercharger switch torque (MAX) from the maximum torque (ML(MAX)) before initiation of the supercharging switching, multiplied by a factor.
5. The method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein after expiration of a time interval (t) the maximum torque (ML(MAX)) again corresponds to the charge pressure limitation torque (MLDA), which is computed as a function of fuel mass (mKR) and actual efficiency (ETAt).
