    Abstract: A method of operating a dedicated-EGR engine includes providing a rich air-fuel mixture to a dedicated cylinder; combusting the rich air-fuel mixture in the dedicated cylinder; modeling the combustion of the rich air-fuel mixture in the dedicated cylinder; estimating the composition of the combustion products in the dedicated cylinder based on interpolation of chemical reaction models of stoichiometric and rich combustion. The method further includes mixing the combustion products from the dedicated cylinder with air to produce an intake mixture; estimating a mass fraction of reformate and a mass fraction of burned gas in the intake mixture; providing the intake mixture to the intake ports of all of the cylinders of the dedicated-EGR engine; combusting an air-fuel mixture in a non-dedicated cylinder of the engine; and controlling an engine control parameter based on the estimated mass fractions of reformate and burned gas in the intake mixture.

    Abstract: A system includes a cylinder event module that determines an air-per-cylinder value for a cylinder intake event or a cylinder non-intake event of a current cylinder based on a mass air flow signal and an engine speed signal. A status module generates a status signal indicating whether the current cylinder is activated. A deactivation module, based on the status signal, determines a current accumulated air mass in an intake manifold of an engine: for air received by the intake manifold since a last cylinder intake event of an activated cylinder and prior to one or more consecutive cylinder non-intake events of one or more deactivated cylinders; and based on a previous accumulated air mass in the intake manifold and the air-per-cylinder value. An activation module, based on the status signal, determines an air mass value for the current cylinder based on the air-per-cylinder value and the current accumulated air mass.

    Abstract: A system includes a parameter module that determines at least one of a position of a throttle and a load of an engine. A cylinder status module generates a status signal indicating an activation status of each cylinder of the engine. The cylinder status module determines whether one or more of the cylinders are activated. A first pressure prediction module, when all of the cylinders are activated, predicts first intake port pressures for the cylinders of the engine according to a first model and based on the at least one of the position of the throttle and the engine load. A second pressure prediction module, when one or more of the cylinders is deactivated, predicts second intake port pressures for the deactivated cylinders according to a second model and based on the status signal and the at least one of the position of the throttle and the engine load.

    Abstract: A method and system for estimating air mass per cylinder of an internal combustion engine is provided. An output signal from a MAF sensor is digitally processed to provide an estimate air mass per cylinder (APC). The system includes the MAF sensor; a data acquisition unit configured to receive an output signal from the MAF sensor and produce a sampled signal having a sampling rate greater than one sample per firing event; a multiple band pass (MBP) filter configured to remove signal components caused by airflow pulsations and oscillations through the MAF sensor; an envelope detector configured to detect the lower and upper envelopes of the MBP filtered signal; a MAF estimator configured to estimate a mass airflow based on the detected lower and upper envelopes; a signal decimator; a low pass filter; and a APC converter to converted the low pass filtered signal into an estimated APC.

    Abstract: An engine control system of a vehicle includes a cylinder control module a first air per cylinder (APC) module, an adjustment module, and a fuel control module. The cylinder control module determines a target fraction of activated cylinders of an engine. The first APC module determines a first APC value based on an intake manifold pressure and an air temperature. The adjustment module determines an APC adjustment value based on the target fraction of activated cylinders. The first APC module also determines a second APC value based on the first APC value and the APC adjustment value. The fuel control module controls fuel injection based on the second APC value and a target air/fuel mixture.

    Abstract: An engine control system includes a prediction module that, during an exhaust stroke of a first cylinder of an engine, determines a predicted intake manifold pressure at an end of a next intake stroke of a second cylinder following the first cylinder in a firing order of the cylinders. An air per cylinder (APC) module determines a predicted mass of air that will be trapped within the second cylinder at the end of the next intake stroke of the second cylinder based on the predicted intake manifold pressure. A fueling module controls fueling of the second cylinder during the next intake stroke based on the predicted mass of air.
