Gas flow observer for Diesel Engines with EGR
نویسندگان
چکیده
Due to stricter emission legislation, there is a need for more efficient control of diesel engines with exhaust gas recirculation(EGR). In particular, it is important to estimate the air/fuel ratio accurately in transients. Therefore a new engine gas flow model has been developed. This model divides the gas into one part for oxygen and one part for inert gases. Based on this model an observer has been designed to estimate the oxygen concentration in the gas going into the engine, which can be used to calculate the air/fuel ratio. This observer can also be used to estimate the intake manifold pressure. The advantage of estimating the pressure, instead of low pass filtering the noisy signal, is that the observer does not cause time delay.

Simultaneous Air Fraction and Low-Pressure EGR Mass Flow Rate Estimation for Diesel Engines
This paper describes a low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation (LP-EGR) mass flow rate estimation method and a robust air mass fraction observer for a Diesel engine with dualloop EGR system. Both observers operate simultaneously eliminating the need for pressure measurement upstream the LP-EGR valve. A sliding mode observer is designed to estimate the LP-EGR mass flow rate using the standard sen...
متن کاملEvaluate the effect of biodiesel and EGR system on diesel engine emissions
Vehicle Emission is one of the main causes of environmental damage. Vehicle engines produce carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrocarbon (HC), Nitrogen oxides (NOx) and many other harmful substances. An investigation was conducted using a compression-ignition engine fuelled with different ratios of blends of diesel and biodiesel at different EGR rates. The effects of different ratios of fuel blends and EG...

This paper does a research on turbocharged diesel engines both of air-path or speed-path alone, and proposes a cooperative control strategy of air and speed-path two loop TDE system. For modern diesel engines, accurate air/fuel ratio (AFR) and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rates design are very important to meet the requirements of emission standards of NOx and PM. For the EGR and AFR rates a...
