An internal combustion engine includes a port injection valve, a direct injection valve, and a forced-induction device. A ratio of an amount of fuel injected from the port injection valve with respect to a total amount of fuel supplied for one fuel combustion in the cylinder is defined as a port injection ratio. The internal combustion engine is controlled such that, in a case in which a condition is satisfied that the forced-induction device is in an operation of performing forced induction and the internal combustion engine is in an engine operation region in which a valve overlap period is greater than zero, the port injection ratio is set to be small and a start timing of fuel injection from the port injection valve is delayed as compared with a case in which the condition is not satisfied.

Controller and control method for internal combustion engine

A controller and a control method for an internal combustion engine, and a memory medium are provided. In a first combustion cylinder, first combustion is caused by control circuitry when the engine is restarted from a state where fuel combustion in cylinders is suspended. An automatic stopping process suspends the fuel combustion in the cylinders and controls a throttle valve to a closed state when a predetermined condition is satisfied. A first calculation process calculates an amount of fuel injected into the first combustion cylinder based on a position of the piston in the first combustion cylinder in a case where a rotation speed of a crankshaft obtained when the restart was requested is zero. A second calculation process calculates the injection amount based on the rotation speed in a case where the rotation speed obtained when the restart was requested is higher than zero.

During execution of a purge, a purge concentration-related value is learned based on an air-fuel ratio deviation that is a deviation of an air-fuel ratio detected by an air-fuel ratio sensor from a required air-fuel ratio. In this case, the purge concentration-related value is updated using an update amount with a smaller absolute value when the purge is a second purge of supplying evaporated fuel gas to an intake pipe through a second purge passage than when the purge is a first purge of supplying the evaporated fuel gas to the intake pipe through a first purge passage.

Engine device

When first switching of switching from a first purge of supplying evaporated fuel gas to an intake pipe through a first purge passage to a second purge of supplying the evaporated fuel gas to the intake pipe through a second purge passage occurs and then second switching of switching from the second purge to the first purge occurs, a purge concentration-related value is corrected to a value closer to a first stored value that is the purge concentration-related value immediately before the first switching than to a second stored value that is the purge concentration-related value immediately before the second switching.

An engine unit includes an engine including a cylinder injection valve that sprays fuel into a combustion chamber and an ignition plug that is able to ignite fuel sprayed from the cylinder injection valve. When expansion stroke injection drive of performing final fuel injection from the cylinder injection valve in an expansion stroke and igniting the fuel using the ignition plug in synchronization with the fuel injection in the expansion stroke is performed, upper and lower limits of an ignition timing are guarded such that the ignition timing is in a predetermined range centered on a final fuel injection start timing at a final determination timing of the ignition timing.

Engine unit

An engine device includes an engine including an in-cylinder injection valve and a spark plug, an exhaust gas control device, and a controller. The controller is configured to perform a last fuel injection from the in-cylinder injection valve in an expansion stroke and to set a fuel injection amount for the last fuel injection in expansion stroke injection driving, based on a coolant start temperature, post-start time, and volumetric efficiency. The expansion stroke injection driving is a control that is performed by performing the ignition by the spark plug in synchronization with the fuel injection in the expansion stroke.

Fuel injection control of an engine is executed by setting a required injection amount and an air-fuel ratio correction amount. When setting conditions are met, the air-fuel ratio correction amount is set for a corresponding region to which a current intake air amount or load ratio belongs among a plurality of regions into which the range of the intake air amount or the load ratio is divided such that a region of a larger intake air amount or a higher load ratio becomes wider than a region of a smaller intake air amount or a lower load ratio. When purge conditions are met, a purge control valve is controlled such that purge of supplying an evaporated fuel gas to an intake pipe is executed based on a required purge ratio.

The internal combustion engine includes a port injection valve that injects fuel into an intake-air port, and a cylinder injection valve that injects fuel into a cylinder. The control apparatus includes an electronic control unit that controls the port injection valve and the cylinder injection valve such that when returning from a fuel cut, a value of a port increase amount correction, which is a fuel increase amount correction in which a fuel amount is decreased with a lapse of time during a port injection, differs from a value of a cylinder increase amount correction, which is a fuel increase amount correction in which a fuel amount is decreased with a lapse of time during a cylinder injection.

Control apparatus of internal combustion engine

When a predetermined condition is satisfied, a flow rate ratio of a first passage flow rate to a second passage flow rate is estimated based on a throttle post pressure being a pressure on a downstream side of an intake pipe with respect to a throttle valve and an ejector pressure being a pressure of a suction port of an ejector. The first passage flow rate is a flow rate of an evaporated fuel gas flowing in a first purge passage. The second passage flow rate is a flow rate of the evaporated fuel gas flowing in a second purge passage. The first passage flow rate and the second passage flow rate are estimated based on the flow rate ratio and a valve passing flow rate being a flow rate of the evaporated fuel gas that passes through a purge control value.
