ABSTRACT:
A humidity based control system for an internal combustion engine includes a calculation module and a calibration module. The calculation module determines a humidity of air used in a combustion process of the internal combustion engine. The control module selectively controls spark timing and exhaust dilution in the internal combustion engine based on the humidity.
