The paper presents an approach to reconstruct cylinder-individual pressure of each combustion cycle by processing the instantaneous fluctuations of the engine speed and the in-cylinder pressure of one cylinder. A new pressure model with a feasible number of parameters is combined with a model-based torque estimation in order to reconstruct the pressure traces. The performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated with measurement data acquired from a vehicle with a four cylinder spark ignition (SI) engine.
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.
