Control device of internal combustion engine

摘要

When alcohol mixing fuel is supplied to an internal combustion engine, an intake air flow rate is detected and a basic amplitude amount α of an upstream target air-fuel ratio abyfr corresponding to this detected intake air flow rate is calculated. Next, alcohol concentration in the fuel (in more detail, ethanol concentration Cetha) and a cooling water temperature (or an intake air temperature) are detected, hydrogen concentration Ch in a mixing exhaust gas is calculated based on the detected ethanol concentration Cetha and the detected cooling water temperature (or the detected intake air temperature) amplitude gain β corresponding to the calculated hydrogen concentration is calculated and finally, an amplitude amount (α×β) of the upstream target air-fuel ratio is calculated.

1. A control device of an internal combustion engine to be applied to an internal combustion engine including:
a fuel-mixing air supply means that supplies fuel-mixing air made of fuel including at least gasoline and air to a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine; a catalyst arranged in an exhaust passage through which an exhaust gas discharged from the combustion chamber passes; an air-fuel ratio sensor arranged in the exhaust passage on the downstream side of the catalyst, the air-fuel ratio sensor that generates an output value in accordance with the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas passing through the exhaust passage; and a target air-fuel ratio setting means that sets a target air-fuel ratio of the fuel-mixing air based on the output value from the air-fuel ratio sensor, the control device of the internal combustion engine, comprising: a hydrogen concentration detection means that detects hydrogen concentration in the exhaust gas discharged from the combustion chamber; and a correction means that corrects the target air-fuel ratio set by the target air-fuel ratio setting means based on the hydrogen concentration detected by the hydrogen concentration detection means; and an intake air flow rate detection means that detects an intake air flow rate indicating mass of air taken into the internal combustion engine per unit time, wherein the target air-fuel ratio setting means sets the target air-fuel ratio by changing an amplitude amount indicating a variation amount from a theoretical air-fuel ratio to the lean side or the rich side based on the intake air flow rate detected by the intake air flow rate detection means, the correction means corrects at least the changed amplitude amount from the theoretical air-fuel ratio to the lean side based on the hydrogen concentration detected by the hydrogen concentration detection means, the target air-fuel ratio setting means sets the target air-fuel ratio to an air-fuel ratio on the rich side of the theoretical air-fuel ratio based on the output value of the air-fuel ratio sensor corresponding to a change in an interior of the catalyst from a reduction atmosphere that reduces the exhaust gas flowing into the catalyst to an oxidation atmosphere that oxidizes the exhaust gas flowing into the catalyst, and the target air-fuel ratio setting means sets the target air-fuel ratio to an air-fuel ratio on the lean side of the theoretical air-fuel ratio based on the output value of the air-fuel ratio sensor corresponding to a change in the interior of the catalyst from the oxidation atmosphere to the reduction atmosphere.
