    摘要: A vehicle cooling device includes a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger. The first heat exchanger is a water-cooled intercooler that is configured to cool supercharged intake air. The second heat exchanger is a water-cooled EGR gas cooler that is configured to cool EGR gas. The first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger are arranged in series on a cooling water circuit such that cooling water flowing out of the first heat exchanger flows into the second heat exchanger. The second heat exchanger is arranged in a position relatively lower than a height position of the first heat exchanger when the cooling device has been installed in a vehicle. Due to this height difference, the cooling water in the second heat exchanger has high pressure, and boiling of the cooling water is suppressed.

    摘要: During a transient period, the opening degree of a throttle valve (throttle opening degree) is varied from a steady-period target throttle opening degree in a region A1 toward a valve closing side by a predetermined amount ΔP, and is thereafter controlled so as to become a steady-period target throttle opening degree in the region A1. The transient period is a transient period in which the operation state is shifted from a region B2 in which an air-fuel ratio in a supercharged state becomes a predetermined lean air-fuel ratio to a region A1 in which the air-fuel ratio in a non-supercharged state becomes a predetermined rich air-fuel ratio richer than the lean air-fuel ratio. In this transient period, by reducing the air amount in a cylinder, the combustion torque of an internal combustion engine is suppressed, and consequently; a torque overshoot can be suppressed.

    摘要: An intake control method for an internal combustion engine equipped with a low-pressure EGR system includes setting a target intake pressure, which is a target value of an intake pressure in an intake passage between a negative pressure generating valve and an intake throttle valve, necessary for performing EGR control in a state of an exhaust pressure determined for each operating point, setting a target total opening area, which is a sum of a target opening area of an EGR valve and a target opening area of the negative pressure generating valve, on the basis of the target intake pressure, a target fresh air amount, and a target EGR gas amount, setting a target EGR valve opening area, which is an opening area of the EGR valve for achieving the target EGR gas amount, assuming that the negative pressure generating valve is fully open, and setting a value obtained by subtracting the target EGR valve opening area from the target total opening area to be a target negative pressure generating valve opening area, which is a target value of an opening area of the negative pressure generating valve.

    摘要: A basic opening (A0) of an EGR control valve (22) is set, based on a current engine operation state. A differential pressure (ΔP1) across the EGR control valve (22) is calculated, based on an actual exhaust system temperature (T1) sensed by an exhaust temperature sensor (33). A reference differential pressure (ΔP0) is calculated, which is a differential pressure across the EGR control valve (22) in a steady state corresponding to the current engine operation state. A reference pulsation amplitude (D) is calculated, which is an amplitude of pulsation of the reference differential pressure (ΔP0). The basic opening (A0) is corrected, based on the differential pressure (ΔP1), the reference differential pressure (ΔP0), and the reference pulsation amplitude (D).

    摘要: A control method and a control device for controlling a spark-ignition internal combustion engine that is equipped with a turbocharger and an exhaust gas recirculation device. The operation of the engine is carried out to perform a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio by performing exhaust gas recirculation even in a high-load range including a maximum-output operation point. When the maximum output operation point is required, intake air information such as atmospheric pressure and outside air temperature is used as a basis to calculate intake air density, which is compared with a predetermined density threshold. When the intake density is equal to or less than the density threshold at a high-altitude location or the like, an exhaust gas recirculation rate is set to 0. As a result, the maximum output can be higher than when exhaust gas recirculation is performed.

    摘要: An exhaust gas recirculation control device controls an exhaust gas recirculation device that includes an exhaust gas recirculation passage adapted to circulate a portion of exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine from an exhaust passage downstream of a turbine of a turbo supercharger along an exhaust flow to an intake passage upstream of a compressor of the turbo supercharger along an intake flow and downstream of an air flow meter along the intake flow, and a recirculation control valve adapted to adjust an amount of exhaust gas circulated to the intake passage. Furthermore, the exhaust gas recirculation control device includes recirculation ratio setting means adapted to set a lower target recirculation ratio for a smaller intake air amount of the internal combustion engine.
