20090049897 | METHOD FOR ON-LINE ADAPTATION OF ENGINE VOLUMETRIC EFFICIENCY USING A MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR - An electronic engine controller is configured to execute a process of adapting a base value of the volumetric efficiency of an engine through the addition of a correction value of the volumetric efficiency. The process includes comparing an estimated mass air flow value calculated using a speed-density equation, with an actual mass air flow value measured by a mass air flow (MAF) sensor. A percentage error of the estimated mass air flow value as compared to the actual mass air flow value is calculated. When the percentage error indicates that the air flow is at steady state, then the process updates the VE correction value, by integrating the percentage error. The new correction value, thus computed, is then stored in a cell of an array corresponding to the current engine operating condition. The process is configured to add the correction value to the corresponding base value to produce an updated value of the VE, valid for that operating condition. The process accommodates changes in the volumetric efficiency of the engine due to part aging and deposit build-up over time, among other things. The updated VE value may then be used for mass air flow estimation and accordingly for fueling control as well. | 02-26-2009 |
