Engine device
An engine device is equipped with an engine, a supercharger having a turbine, a compressor and a waste gate valve, and a control device that controls the engine and the supercharger, and that performs an abnormality diagnosis of a relationship between an intake air amount of the engine and a supercharging pressure as a pressure downstream of the compressor in the intake pipe. The control device performs boost control for controlling the waste gate valve such that the supercharging pressure becomes higher when a predetermined condition is fulfilled than when the predetermined condition is not fulfilled. The control device further sets a threshold for use in the abnormality diagnosis, based on whether or not the boost control is performed.
1. An engine device comprising:
an engine;
a supercharger having a turbine that is arranged in an exhaust pipe of the engine, a compressor that is arranged in an intake pipe of the engine and that is driven by the turbine, and a waste gate valve that is provided in a bypass pipe for establishing communication between an upstream side and a downstream side of the turbine in the exhaust pipe; and
a control device that controls the engine and the supercharger, and that performs an abnormality diagnosis of a relationship between an intake air amount of the engine and a supercharging pressure as a pressure downstream of the compressor in the intake pipe, wherein
the control device performs boost control for controlling the waste gate valve such that the supercharging pressure becomes higher when a predetermined condition is fulfilled as compared to when the predetermined condition is not fulfilled, and
the control device further sets a threshold value of one or more of the intake air amount and the supercharging pressure for use in the abnormality diagnosis, based on whether or not the boost control is performed such that the threshold value differs when the boost control is performed as compared to when the boost control is not performed.
2. The engine device according to claim 1 , wherein
the control device sets, as the threshold value, the same value as when the boost control is not performed, in a case where a boost amount of the supercharging pressure for a time when the boost control is not performed is equal to or smaller than a predetermined amount while the boost control is performed.
3. The engine device according to claim 1 , wherein
the control device controls the waste gate valve such that the supercharging pressure becomes higher by a boost amount based on a required supercharging pressure and/or the intake air amount when the boost control is performed as compared to when the boost control is not performed.
4. The engine device according to claim 1 , wherein
the control device performs the abnormality diagnosis through a comparison between the intake air amount and a permissible upper limit of the intake air amount based on the supercharging pressure, and
the control device further sets the permissible upper limit such that the permissible upper limit becomes smaller when the boost control is performed than as compared to when the boost control is not performed.
5. The engine device according to claim 4 , wherein
the control device refrains from performing the abnormality diagnosis until a predetermined time elapses since start of performance of the boost control.
6. The engine device according to claim 4 , wherein
the control device sets the permissible upper limit such that the permissible upper limit becomes larger when a rotational speed of the engine is high as compared to when the rotational speed of the engine is low.
