Latest Patents

Kirsten holds a patent for a "Method and system for adjusting a variable geometry mechanism." This patent describes systems and methods for adjusting a variable geometry mechanism of an engine. The invention involves monitoring an engine control request indicative of a desired output power for the engine. It determines the rate of change of the engine control request and compares it to a threshold. If the rate of change exceeds the threshold, a transient bias map is applied to a steady-state schedule. This generates a variable geometry mechanism request that indicates a target position for the mechanism. The mechanism is then adjusted toward this target position according to the request. Kirsten has 1 patent to her name.
