A method for determining a modeling value of a physical variable in a gas guiding section of an engine system including an internal combustion engine, includes the following steps: operating the engine system in such a way that an air mass flow is present in the gas guiding section; determining instantaneous values of other physical variables; and determining the modeling value of the physical variable by solving a differential equation, which results as the discretization of a differential equation, with the aid of the previously ascertained instantaneous values of the other physical variables.

Method and device for ascertaining a modeling value for a physical variable in an engine system having an internal combustion engine

A method for diagnosing a sensor unit of an internal combustion engine, in which an output signal of the sensor unit is compared to a setpoint value which is specified independently from the output signal. The setpoint value relates to a periodic characteristic, and the variation over time of the value of the output signal of the sensor unit or a variable which is derived from the value variation over time is analyzed with regard to this periodic characteristic.

Method for diagnosing a sensor unit of an internal combustion engine

A method for determining at least one air system variable in an air supply system of an internal combustion engine in successive, discrete calculation steps, a differential equation being provided with respect to the air system variable based on measured and/or modeled variables, which describe conditions in the air supply system, a difference equation being formed for the quantization of the differential equation according to an implicit method, and the difference equation being solved in each discrete calculation step, in order to obtain the air system variable.
