Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9104401A1] In a process for adjusting the quantities of air and fuel in a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine with individual injection for each cylinder as far as possible, the quantity of fuel for each injection cycle is calculated taking account of the probable inlet pipe pressure during the period of opening of the inlet valve. After a change in the position of the accelerator pedal the throttle valve is not adjustable until the quantities of fuel dictating the new throttle valve setting have been calculated and essentially injected. Because the quantities of fuel to be injected are calculated with reference not to the current flow of air but to the determinant inlet pipe pressure during the inlet cycle and as a change in the throttle valve control which would cause a change in the inlet pipe pressure not taken into account in the injection quantity calculation is permitted only after a fresh calculation, there is, even with the internal combustion engine is unstable modes, an optimum ratio between the quantities of fuel and air per injection to maintain a predetermined air/fuel ratio. Besides the future inlet pipe pressure, account is also taken in calculating the quantity of fuel to be injected of the quantity of fuel which is transferred to or released from a wall film.
