Multi-cylinder engine fuel control method, engine fuel injection amount control method and engine operation state discrimination method using the same, propulsion apparatus for multiple engines, and fuel injection control method during crash astern in marine engine with reduction and reversal device
Rotation recognition means for recognizing a revolution of a crankshaft based on the cylinders before the combustion cycle of a cylinder in question is provided. When the supply of fuel by injection from an injector to a certain cylinder of the six cylinders has become impossible, then control is performed to change the number of cylinders targeted by the rotation recognition means so as to recognize the revolution of the crankshaft for all six cylinders whose combustion cycles are consecutive prior to the combustion cycle of the cylinder in question, and to stop the supply of fuel from the injectors for supplying fuel to cylinders whose combustion cycles are equally spaced from the cylinder to which the supply of fuel is not possible, so that the spacing between the combustion cycles in the cylinders whose combustion cycles come before and after and sandwich the cylinder to which the supply of fuel is not possible becomes uniform.
1. A fuel injection control method during crash astern in a marine engine with reduction and reversal device,
wherein when it has been determined that a crash astern has been executed by switching a clutch from forward to reverse when a forward moving ship is to be brought to a stop, and an actual revolution of the engine becomes smaller and falls below a target revolution, then engine stall avoid control that involves at least one of, or a combination of a plurality of, terminating fuel injection amount adjustment by a boost compensator in accordance with a boost pressure, changing a fuel injection amount adjustment map so as to result in an increase in the fuel injection amount by the boost compensator in accordance with the boost pressure, and changing a filtering process constant with the aim of increasing the control response speed.
