METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TORQUE CONTROL

摘要

Methods and systems are provided for detecting air-fuel ratio imbalances across all engine cylinders. In one example, a method (or system) may include indicating cylinder imbalance based on each of the exhaust air-fuel ratio, exhaust manifold pressure, and cylinder torque weighted by a confidence factor, where in the confidence factor is determined based on operating conditions.

1. A method for an engine, comprising:
indicating cylinder-to-cylinder imbalance based on each of exhaust air-fuel ratio estimated by an exhaust gas sensor, exhaust manifold pressure estimated by a pressure sensor, and individual cylinder torque estimated by a crankshaft torque sensor.
