Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1065364A1] An engine management system (17) for regulating the quantity of fuel supplied to the cylinders of a diesel engine (11) includes steady state torque limit data (23) indicating, for different engine speeds (24), a torque limit (25) at which the engine is capable of operation for extended periods. Torque limit override means (39) is arranged to set transient torque limits (31) higher than the steady state torque limits (23) only when the engine is accelerating, whereby increased torque is available during transient operating conditions without compromising durability of the engine. <IMAGE>
