ABSTRACT:
A control method and system that achieves a desired purge flow rate in accordance with operation of a variable valve timing control mechanism. Although pumping loss of an internal combustion engine is varied by a change in the amount of operating the variable valve timing control mechanism, a change in an intake pressure in an intake passage is caused by influence of inertia supercharging, and the purge flow rate is changed. In this case, an opening degree of a purge solenoid valve is set according to the respective amount of operating the variable valve timing control mechanism. The set opening degree is considered by the ECU, and a final opening degree of the purge solenoid valve is set, so that a desired purge flow rate can be controlled regardless of the operation of the variable valve timing control mechanism.
