Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018167406A1] The invention proposes a method for adjusting richness (r) in a controlled-ignition internal combustion engine, capable of limiting the temperature of the parts constituting the exhaust circuit during operation at high load. During operation at close to full load, the richness is adjusted to a first richness value (r1) in order to pre-cool the exhaust gases. When the temperature of the exhaust gases (θech) reaches a first temperature threshold (θ1), which is lower than a second temperature threshold (θ2) corresponding to a reliability limit of the parts, the richness value is gradually increased, for example linearly, from the first richness value (r1) to, at a maximum, a second richness value (r2), at which the temperature of the exhaust gases is equal to the second temperature threshold (θ2). If the temperature of the exhaust gases (θech) reaches said second threshold (θ2) before the richness has reached the second richness value (r2), the richness is immediately adjusted to said second richness value (r2).
