Abstract
This paper introduces a model-based predictive attempt for simultaneous control of boost pressure and EGR rate for a heavy-duty diesel engine. The basic linear controller structure is extended with a gain scheduling approach to consider the non-linearities of the engine process. A mainly automated application procedure has been developed. This work is part of the project ATECS (Advanced Truck Engine Control System), founded by the European Community. In the course of the project non-linear simulation models of two truck diesel engines have been designed in Matlab/Simulink® by the Institute of Automatic Control (IRT) of the Aachen University (RWTH) in cooperation with the Institute of Combustion Engines (VKA) of the Aachen University (RWTH). The control strategy has been tested in the simulation and has been implemented in cooperation with the VKA and the FEV on the test bench engine.
