ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for fixing the composition of the gas content and the degree of filling of cylinders in an internal combustion engine having autoignition, including a fuel metering device to which a signal dependent at least on the position of the driving pedal can be delivered and having an exhaust gas feedback control element in the air intake line as well as an apparatus for controlling the exhaust feedback rate. The apparatus includes measurement value transducers for the at least indirectly detectable total cylinder filling and the ratio of fresh air to exhaust gas or the air ratio pertaining to the aspirated fresh air and/or the fuel metering is influenced among others in accordance with this measurement value. The detection of the total cylinder filling can be accomplished indirectly by using measurement techniques for detecting pressure and temperature in the intake manifold. Besides using pressure transducers, whose output signal may be corrected in accordance with temperature, if desired, it is also possible to use an arrangement for measurement of the total gas quantity between the exhaust feedback point and the inlet valves. The object of the proposed apparatus is to set the mixture of fresh air and exhaust gas which is optimal at any given time with respect to toxic substances in the exhaust, by means of processing as many observable influencing factors as possible, and in particular by processing the total cylinder filling, which is of significance especially in terms of the limitation of solids in the exhaust which is expected to be made a legal requirement. Alternatively, the signal for the total cylinder filling can be used in order to adjust a suitably controllable supercharger via a governor in such a manner that the total cylinder filling (charge quantity) is constantly controlled. Thus, under altered environmental conditions, the optimal air ratio for normal conditions pertaining to the aspirated fresh air can be maintained with respect to toxic substances in the exhaust.
