Detection of Exhaust Manifold Leaks on a Turbocharged SI-engine with Wastegate
نویسنده
چکیده
Emissions from modern SI-engines are reduced by a three way catalyst. However if there are leaks in the exhaust system before the catalyst emissions increase for two reasons. First the untreated emissions leak out. Second which is worse, due to waves in the exhaust system, oxygen leaks into the manifold and causes an oxygen sensor offset. The result is increased emissions as the air/fuel controller makes the engine run rich. Here a method to detect leakages in the exhaust manifold is presented. The sensors used are binary oxygen sensor(s), intake manifold pressure and temperature, and the air mass flow sensor. Injection time is also used to estimate air/fuel ratio. Experimental results are shown with measurements from a turbo charged SAAB SI production engine with wastegate.

Exhaust Manifold Pressure Estimation on a Turbocharged Si-engine with Wastegate
In turbocharged engines with wastegate the exhaust pressure can change rapidly. A method to estimate the exhaust manifold pressure is presented for diagnosis of wastegate and turbocharger on spark-ignited engines. It does not require any extra sensors in the exhaust system after the calibration. A non-linear model is developed of the exhaust pressure. Estimates of the exhaust manifold pressure ...
متن کاملComparison of two Exhaust Manifold Pressure Estimation Methods
In turbocharged engines with wastegate the exhaust pressure can change rapidly. Two methods to estimate the exhaust manifold pressure are compared for diagnosis of wastegate and turbocharger of a spark-ignited engine. One relies on the first law of thermodynamics and produces changes in exhaust manifold pressure. The second uses a model of the mass of remaining exhaust gases in the cylinder and...
