Camless Engine Control for a Robust Unthrottled Operation
نویسنده
چکیده
Substantial improvements in engine fuel e ciency torque and reduction of emissions are available with cam less actuation capable of continuous control of engine valve lift duration and timing A phenomenological model has been developed for an unthrottled operation that is key to e ciency gain An adaptive nonlinear controller has been designed to coordinate intake valve lift and duration by using high sampling rate intake manifold pressure and ow sensors The driver torque demand is satis ed while pumping losses are minimized Simulation results for a cylinder L engine demonstrate event to event tracking and cylinder to cylinder balancing The controller corrects for variations in e ective ow areas e g valve deposits induction ram e ects and temperature

Inherent limitations and control design for camless engine idle speed dynamics
The idle speed control problem of a spark-ignited engine equipped with a camless valvetrain is considered. The camless valvetrain allows control of the individual intake and exhaust valves of each cylinder and can be used to achieve unthrottled operation, and consequently, optimize the engine performance. We formulate the speed control problem for this engine and show that it exhibits unstable ...

The improvement of internal combustion engine is largely accomplished though the introduction of innovative actuators that allow optimization and control of the flow, mixing, and combustion processes. The realization of such a novel system depends on the existence of an operational controller that will stabilize the engine and allow experimental testing which, consequently, leads to further dev...

متن کاملBenefits of the Electromagnetic Actuated Valve Train in Gasoline Engine Application
Engines equipped with camless valve trains will have greater space for performance optimization. In this paper, based on the electromagnetic actuated valve train system, one-dimensional and three-dimensional simulation models on engine thermodynamic cycle and in-cylinder charge motion are established, respectively. With the application of early-intake-valve closing (EIVC) strategy,unthrottled l...
