A system and method for exhaust gas recirculation control

摘要

A system and method for controlling a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine 10 having at least one automatically controllable airflow actuator 78 and an exhaust gas recirculation system 80 including an exhaust gas recirculation valve 82 includes determining a desired manifold pressure based at least in part on position of the automatically controllable airflow actuator 78 and controlling the exhaust gas recirculation valve 82 such that a measured manifold pressure approaches the desired manifold pressure.
