A method for setting a throttle valve that includes feedback control of a throttle position of the throttle valve in the entire operating range of an internal combustion engine, wherein the feedback control is based on an internal model control principle.

Method for setting a throttle valve, engine control unit, and a vehicle

A method for carrying out a gas exchange in a cylinder of an internal combustion engine is provided. The cylinder is connected to a gas line section via a valve. An actuator adjusts a gas pressure in the gas line section. The valve closes at a fixed point in time in a working cycle of the internal combustion engine in case of a constant torque of the internal combustion engine. The method includes the steps of recognizing a torque change request; determining a target value for the gas pressure in the gas line section in dependence on the torque change request; and determining a variable point in time for closing the valve as a result of the torque change request, wherein the variable point in time is shifted in the working cycle relative to the fixed point in time in dependence on the target value of the gas pressure.
