Method for detecting continuous injection during the operation of an internal combustion engine, injection system for an internal combustion engine and internal combustion engine
A method for detecting continuous injection during the operation of an internal combustion engine with an injection system having a high-pressure accumulator for a fuel, wherein—a high pressure in the injection system is monitored as a function of time, wherein—in order to detect continuous injection it is checked whether the high pressure has dropped by a predetermined continuous injection differential pressure value within a predetermined continuous injection time interval, wherein—it is checked whether a reduction valve which connects the high-pressure accumulator to a fuel reservoir has been triggered, and wherein—continuous injection is detected if—a reduction valve has not been triggered in a predetermined checking time interval before the dropping of the high pressure, and if—the high pressure has dropped by the predetermined continuous injection differential value amount within the predetermined continuous injection time interval.
1. A method for detecting continuous injection during operation of an internal combustion engine with an injection system having a high-pressure accumulator for a fuel, the method comprising the steps of:
monitoring a high pressure in the injection system as a function of time;
detecting continuous injection by checking whether the high pressure has dropped by a predetermined continuous injection differential pressure absolute value within a predetermined continuous injection time interval; and
checking whether a deactivation valve which connects the high-pressure accumulator to a fuel reservoir has been triggered,
wherein continuous injection is detected when no deactivation valve has been triggered in a predetermined checking time interval before the dropping of the high pressure, and when the high pressure has dropped by the predetermined continuous injection differential pressure absolute value within the predetermined continuous injection time interval, including carrying out the continuous injection checking out only when the internal combustion engine has left a predetermined starting phase and/or when the high pressure has reached or exceeded a high-pressure setpoint value for a first time since starting of the internal combustion engine.
2. The method according to claim 1 , including carrying out a subsequent continuous injection checking after the continuous injection checking, only when the high pressure has reached or exceeded the high-pressure setpoint value again.
3. A method for detecting continuous injection during operation of an internal combustion engine with an injection system having a high-pressure accumulator for a fuel, the method comprising the steps of:
monitoring a high pressure in the injection system as a function of time;
detecting continuous injection by checking whether the high pressure has dropped by a predetermined continuous injection differential pressure absolute value within a predetermined continuous injection time interval; and
checking whether a deactivation valve which connects the high-pressure accumulator to a fuel reservoir has been triggered,
wherein continuous injection is detected when no deactivation valve has been triggered in a predetermined checking time interval before the dropping of the high pressure, and when the high pressure has dropped by the predetermined continuous injection differential pressure absolute value within the predetermined continuous injection time interval, wherein continuous injection is detected only when a fuel admission pressure is higher than or equal to a predetermined admission pressure setpoint value.
