ABSTRACT:
Integrated dilution control for diluting internal combustion engine intake air through control of relative timing between engine cylinder intake and exhaust valve events integrated with control of recirculation of engine exhaust gas through an external exhaust gas conduit with periodic recalibration of modeled relationships between dilution control parameters to correct for effects of dilution control system aging. Internal dilution provided through control of relative valve timing further may be maximized and external dilution provided through the external conduit minimized.
