Engine
Provided is an engine which is provided with an EGR device, wherein: an actual intake/exhaust gas pressure ratio π 1 of an intake-gas pressure P 1 to an exhaust-gas pressure P 2 is calculated from the detected exhaust-gas pressure P 2 and the detected intake-gas pressure P 1 ; an estimated intake/exhaust gas pressure ratio π 2 of the intake-gas pressure P 1 to the exhaust-gas pressure P 2 is calculated from an engine rotational frequency N, and a fuel injection amount F; and, in cases when the actual intake/exhaust gas pressure ratio π 1 is less than a prescribed value π 0 , an EGR gas weight Megr is calculated based on the actual intake/exhaust gas pressure ratio π 1 , and in cases when the actual intake/exhaust gas pressure ratio π 1 is equal to or more than the prescribed value π 0 , the EGR gas weight Megr is calculated based on the estimated intake/exhaust gas pressure ratio π 2.
