TRANSIENT INJECTION TIMING CONTROL

摘要

TRANSIENT INJECTION TIMING CONTROL The timing of the injection of fuel to the cylinders of a diesel engine is normally determined in accordance timing values obtained from an empirically derived steady state timing schedule but is modified during transient engine operation by an amount determined in accordance with the cylinder-to-cylinder change in requested fuel amount. In light to moderate engine acceleration, the steady state timing value is modified by a correction amount which serves to retard the start of injection for effecting a reduction in engine noise and exhaust emissions. In periods of heavy engine acceleration, the steady state timing value is modified by a correction amount which serves to advance the start of injection to improve the engine performance. When the cylinder-to-cylinder change in requested fuel quantity indicates a return to substantially steady state engine operation, the correction amount is reduced in relation to the correction amount magnitude and the cylinder firing frequency.
