Verfahren zur Steuerung von Viertakt-Kolbenbrennkraftmaschinen

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for unthrottled load control of an internal combustion engine by means of exhaust gas. The method requires entirely freely adjustable opening and closing times for the inlet and exhaust valves. Starting at full load with the minimum of exhaust gas in the cylinder the amount of exhaust gas in the cylinder is increased thereby reducing the available combustion chamber volume for receiving fresh mixture mass thereby reducing the load. The fresh mixture mass and the exhaust gas mass are controlled exclusively by coordinating the opening and closing times of the intake and exhaust valves.
