Aim:
To understand automotive control systems used for vehicle propulsion, and have the basics for developing future vehicular systems. The student should after the course:
- have knowledge about the systems and components that are important for the propulsion of a road vehicle.
- have knowledge about the operating principles of engines and powertrains.
- be able to explain and analyze the limiting factors for engine performance and control performance.
- be able to describe and implement the most important control loops for air, fuel injection and ignition in todays engine control systems for both gasoline and diesel engines.
- be able to define and explain the emissions from combustion engines and the factors they depend upon.
- be able to design and build control oriented models for an engine and its components as well as a driveline and its components.
- have experience of planning, executing and evaluating engine laboratory experiments.
- have experience of evaluating and assessing model quality based on both system properties and measurement data.
- have experience of planning and synthesizing control algorithms for automotive engines and powertrains.
- be able to define and describe concepts and basic functionality in an engines diagnosis and supervision system.
