ABSTRACT:
The method for determining an air mass in a cylinder of an internal combustion engine with a supercharging device and with a device for variably controlling the valve overlap of the gas exchange valves is characterized by a reference characteristic curve for the air mass inside the cylinder that, according to the operating conditions, defines a linear correlation between the air mass inside the cylinder and the pressure inside the induction pipe, and when the induction pipe pressure exceeds the exhaust counter pressure, the value of the air mass from the reference characteristic curve is corrected with a value for the supercharging rate that is defined as the characteristic curve according to the operating conditions above the pressure inside the induction duct.
