Fuzzy control of a turbocharged diesel engine
Résumé
In this paper an innovative fuzzy controller is proposed to regulate the intake manifold pressure and the fresh mass airflow of diesel engines simultaneously. Unlike many multivariable controllers published in the literature, it requires neither an internal model nor identification algorithms. It has been designed considering the instrumentation set usually embedded in a mass-produced passenger car. Its rule-based structure has led to an algorithm, which is easy to implement. In comparison to controllers embedded at present in standard Engine Control Units (ECUs), it improves the trajectory tracking of desired outputs as noted during simulation of EURO cycles. In terms of robustness, this controller is little sensitive to the parameter disparity generally encountered in mass-produced engines.
