Abstract:Combustion rate shaping (CRS) is an advanced closed-loop concept which controls the crank-angle resolved combustion trace by adapting the fuel injection profile. The thermodynamic potential of this concept to enable real-time combustion control independent of fuel property variations, injector drift, cylinder tolerances, or changing air-path boundary conditions has already been demonstrated. The highest benefit of this control concept is achieved when it is directly applied on the engine control unit (ECU) in … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
