<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a control device for an internal combustion engine capable of providing an accurate estimation result by executing a process estimating properties of used fuel under a light load operation condition of the engine. <P>SOLUTION: A clutch of an air conditioning device is disengaged and a mode of an AC generator 43 is changed to a low voltage mode (S14, S15) when the engine is under an idling operation condition, a power steering does not operate and predetermined execution conditions are satisfied. Then, fuel injection style in a predetermined cylinder is changed, and cetane number CET of fuel under use is estimated based on detected actual ignition timing CAFM (S16-S19). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
