| 20110048389 | EMG Temp Signal Model Based On EGRC Out Temp For EGR System Anti-Fouling Protection - An EGR control method to prevent condensation within the EGR system uses a temperature sensor signal from an EGR cooler exhaust gas outlet to model or estimate exhaust manifold gas temperature upstream of the cooler. If the estimated exhaust manifold gas temperature falls below a predetermined level, the engine control system closes or partially closes the EGR control valve to stop EGR flow through the cooler and the EGR valve. | 03-03-2011 |
