Abstract
A control device for an internal combustion engine is equipped with an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to: i) calculate amplitudes of respective waves, respectively, originating from a plurality of factors that causes fuel pressure pulsation within a low-pressure fuel passage, vibration frequencies of the respective waves within a crank angle range of 360 degrees, initial phases of the respective waves, and central fuel pressure values of the respective waves; and ii) predict a fuel pressure value at an arbitrary crank angle according to a model formula showing a synthesized wave obtained by synthesizing the respective waves, on a basis of the amplitudes, the vibration frequencies, the initial phases, and the central fuel pressure values of the respective waves calculated.
