método para atuação de válvula variável para provimento de potência positiva e frenagem de motor.

摘要

A control method for transitioning from positive power to engine braking (and vice-versa) is disclosed. This transition may be made using variable valve actuation and two-stroke braking. The process may involve three engine operation modes: positive power (i.e., firing or non-braking), engine braking, and transition between engine braking and positive power. The intake and exhaust valve actuations provided for each of the different modes of operation may be different from each other.
