A vehicle system and method of controlling a vehicle engine are provided. The method includes determining a speed of an engine in the vehicle system including a hydraulic system and a vehicle propulsion system operatively coupled to the engine. The method includes determining that the engine speed is decreasing and an actual engine speed is less than a target engine speed, and determining a current gear setting and one or more operating parameters of the hydraulic system in response to determining that the engine speed is decreasing and the actual engine speed is less than the target engine speed. The method, in response to the current gear setting being engaged and the one or more operating parameters being greater than a predetermined threshold value, includes controlling the engine speed to be higher than the target engine speed.

The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for implementing power a power split between a first and a second power source in a fuel cell powertrain system. The method includes receiving an input into a processor of the fuel cell powertrain system, determining an output by the processor, communicating the output by the processor to a system controller and determining a power split by the system controller. The first power source includes a fuel cell system and the second power source is selected from a battery system or an engine, and the input includes a life or health of at least one of the first power source or the second power source.

Fuel cell powertrain systems and methods for power split and allocation in fuel cell powertrain systems

A method includes detecting a change in a loading condition on an engine based on use of an implement system including a pump driven by the engine, an actuator fluidly coupled to the pump, and an implement repositionable with the actuator. The change in the loading condition is detected based on a variation in a command signal from a joystick that controls movement of the implement, an outlet pressure of the pump, a displacement of the pump, and/or an engagement signal of a clutch positioned to selectively couple the pump to the engine. The method further includes commanding a fueling system to increase an amount of fuel provided to the engine and/or an air handling system of the machine to increase an amount of air and/or a boost pressure of the air provided to the engine in response to detection of an increasing loading condition based on the variation.

A method, system, and apparatus are provided for optimizing control of the rotational speed of a fan in a vehicle so as to reduce the aerodynamic drag of a vehicle in a given operating parameter, and accordingly, to improve fuel efficiency of operation of the vehicle. Certain exemplary embodiments include determining an optimized speed of rotation of a cooling fan of the vehicle for reducing overall fuel demand in given operating conditions, and controlling rotation speed of the fan at the optimized speed in order to minimize fueling demand of a prime mover of the vehicle.

Dynamic fan speed control for aerodynamic drag reduction

Systems and apparatuses of a vehicle include an engine control circuit structured to control an engine speed, a transmission control circuit structured to control a transmission, an implement control circuit structured to control an implement, and a processing circuit structured to receive a travel signal indicative of a travel mode for the vehicle, or an implement signal indicative of an implement mode for the vehicle. In response to operating in the travel mode, the transmission control circuit determines the engine speed and the implement control circuit limits an implement torque to maintain the engine speed. In response to operating in the implement mode, the engine control circuit determines the engine speed and the transmission control circuit limits a propulsion torque to maintain the engine speed.

Integrated powertrain control of engine and transmission

An internal combustion engine operatively coupled with a variable load and an electronic control system operatively coupled with the internal combustion engine. The electronic control system is structured to receive an engine speed target value, a first engine speed feedback value, and a second engine speed feedback value. The electronic control system processes the first engine speed feedback value and the second engine speed feedback value to determine a feedforward correction value. The feedforward correction value is determined to correct for first variation between the second engine speed feedback value and the first engine speed feedback value due to variation in the variable load and to distinguish between the first variation and a second variation due to operation of the internal combustion engine. The control system processes the first engine speed feedback value target, the second engine speed feedback value and the feedforward correction value to determine an engine fueling command, and controls fueling of the internal combustion engine using the fueling command.
