Sliding Mode Control of Both Air-to-Fuel and Fuel Ratios for a Dual-Fuel Internal Combustion Engine
نویسندگان
چکیده
A multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) sliding mode control scheme was developed with guaranteed stability to simultaneously control air-to-fuel ratio (AFR) and fuel ratios to desired levels under various air flow disturbances by regulating the mass flow rates of engine port-fuel-injection (PFI) and direct injection (DI) systems. The sliding mode control performance was compared with a baseline multiloop proportional integral differential (PID) controller through simulations and showed improvements. A four cylinder mean value engine model and the proposed sliding mode controller were implemented into a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulator and a target engine control module, and HIL simulations were conducted to validate the developed controller for potential implementation in an automotive engine.

متن کاملAir-to-Fuel and Dual-Fuel Ratio Control of an Internal Combustion Engine
Air-to-fuel (A/F) ratio is the mass ratio of the air-to-fuel mixture trapped inside a cylinder before combustion begins, and it affects engine emissions, fuel economy, and other performances. Using an A/F ratio and dualfuel ratio control oriented engine model, a multi-inputmulti-output (MIMO) sliding mode control scheme is used to simultaneously control the mass flow rate of both port fuel inje...
