Patent
Torque estimator for engine RPM and torque control
Michael Livshiz,Joseph R. Dulzo,Onassis Matthews,Donovan L. Dibble,Alfred E. Spitza,Scott J. Chynoweth +5 more
TL;DR: An engine toque estimator according to the invention includes a vehicle data bus that provides a plurality of engine operating inputs including at least one of engine RPM, spark and a dilution estimate.
Patent
Torque control of turbocharged engine
Michael Livshiz,Douglas J. Babcock,Joseph R. Dulzo,Emil Ritzen,Anne E. Novi Vondracek,Lennarth Zander +5 more
TL;DR: An engine system includes an engine having an intake manifold and a turbocharger that supplies compressed air to the intake manifold. as mentioned in this paper calculates a desired pre-throttle pressure of air before the throttle and calculates the desired manifold air flow into the engine.
Patent
Solenoid diagnostic systems for cylinder deactivation control
TL;DR: In this article, a solenoid diagnostic system includes a pressure monitoring module that determines a first pressure in an intake cam phaser for a intake camshaft and a second pressure in a exhaust camphaser associated with a cylinder.
Patent
Method and system for generating a diagnostic signal of an engine component using an in-cylinder pressure sensor
Kenneth J. Buslepp,Douglas R. Verner,Joseph R. Dulzo,Jonathan T. Shibata,Daniel G. Brennan,Joshua D. Cowgill +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a control module for diagnosing an engine component function includes a comparison module comparing an in-cylinder pressure signal to a threshold and a fault indication module generating a diagnostic signal for a component in response to comparing.
Patent
Apparatus and methods for estimating vehicle fuel composition
Mark D. Carr,Joseph R. Dulzo,Christopher R. Graham,Richard B. Jess,Ian J. MacEwen,Onassis Matthews,Jeffrey A. Sell,Michael J. Svestka,Julian R. Verdejo +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method of estimating composition of fuel in the fuel tank of a vehicle is proposed, which eliminates the need for a hardware fuel composition sensor and also provides dynamic filtering of fuel trim values.
