ENGINE TORQUE CONTROL STRATEGY

摘要

A diesel engine control system and method. A first data source provides data defining a current maximum limit for fueling the engine. A second data source provides data defining a torque request for the engine. A third data source providing data distinguishing between the occurrence and non-occurrence of a vehicle event, such as a traction- or transmission-related event, calling for change in value of maximum allowable engine torque from a preset value to a different value. When the third data source data indicates occurrence of a vehicle event calling for change in value of maximum allowable engine torque from the preset value to a different value, the data from the first data source and the data from the second data source are processes to develop data representing a value of maximum allowable engine torque different from the preset value.
