ABSTRACT:
An engine control apparatus has an air flow rate measuring device for measuring an intake air flow rate. A temperature sensing element having a temperature characteristic and constituting the device is arranged in an intake pipe. The device generates an output pulse signal having a pulse width T corresponding to the intake air flow rate. An engine control unit has the one-dimensional map for storing the relationship between the engine speed N and the pulse width to of the signal corresponding to the air flow rate. This data to is read out from the one-dimensional map in accordance with the engine speed N. Subsequently, the data to is subtracted from the data T to calculate a time duration t. The unit also has a two-dimensional map for storing the relationship between each time duration t and the corresponding rate G/N in correspondence with each of the present engine speeds. A corresponding rate G/N is read out from the two-dimensional map in response to the calculated time duration t. The resultant rate G/N is used to calculate fuel injection quantity.
