A blowback air amount is an amount of air that is part of the air that has flowed into a combustion chamber and is blown back into an intake passage before an intake valve closes. If the blowback air amount increases, a controller causes a fuel injection valve to inject fuel by an amount increased with respect to a fuel amount for a case in which the blowback air amount remains constant. The controller sets an increase amount of fuel injected from the fuel injection valve to a greater value when the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio of the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve is small than when the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio of the fuel injected from the fuel injection valve is great.

Controller and control method for internal combustion engine

A fuel injection control device for an engine includes an ECU. The ECU is configured to: change a port injection ratio in accordance with an operation state of the engine; execute correction of the total fuel injection amount by reflecting a correction amount in a basic fuel injection amount depending on the operation state when the port injection ratio is changed; and when the ECU changes the port injection ratio and calculates a second correction amount that is the correction amount having one of the positive and negative values during the execution of the correction based on a first correction amount that is the correction amount having the other one of the positive and negative values, limit reflection of the first correction amount in the basic injection amount.

Fuel injection control device for internal combustion engine and control method of internal combustion engine

The invention is applied to an internal combustion engine in which fuel cut control is performed. The internal combustion engine has an exhaust gas recirculation system including: an exhaust gas recirculation passage that connects an intake and exhaust passage of the engine; and an exhaust gas recirculation valve that changes a cross section of the exhaust gas recirculation passage. A correlation, which holds during a predetermined period of time immediately after fuel cut control is stopped, between engine rotation speed NE and an index value indicating the amount of burned gas contained in the recirculated exhaust gas that passes through the exhaust gas recirculation valve (Sto S). The correlation is stored in an electronic control unit in advance (S). Immediately after the fuel cut control is stopped, the index value indicating the burned gas amount is computed from the correlation stored in the electronic control unit based on the engine rotation speed NE.
