Method and system for predicting cylinder air charge in an internal combustion engine
摘要
<p>A system 12 and method for predicting cylinder air charge in an internal combustion engine 10 for a future cylinder event is disclosed in which the pressure in an intake manifold 22 is calculated and an estimated position for a throttle plate 38 of the engine 10 at least one cylinder event in the future is determined responsive to an electronic throttle control command. A rate of change of pressure in the intake manifold 22 is then estimated responsive to the measured intake manifold pressure and the estimated throttle plate position. The cylinder air charge is then calculated responsive to the rate of change in pressure in the intake manifold 22.
