Cylinder control method for internal combustion engine, involves activating and deactivating opening of intake and exhaust valves of cylinders, and supplying fuel to first cylinder, and is switched off to second cylinder

摘要

The method involves determining an adapted cylinder activation/deactivation pattern based on the N predetermined cylinder activation/deactivation pattern. A desired cylinder activation/deactivation pattern for the predetermined period during sub-periods is produced. The opening of intake and exhaust valves (122,130) of the first and second cylinders (114,118) are activated and deactivated based on the desired cylinder activation/deactivation pattern. The fuel is supplied to the first cylinder, and is switched off to the second cylinder.
