Abstract
An engine control device for controlling an exhaust gas recirculation operation includes a variable-capacity turbo supercharger, an EGR valve, a supercharging pressure controller, an EGR controller, and an EGR correction amount calculator. The variable-capacity turbo supercharger varies a flow through an exhaust turbine to change a supercharging pressure. The EGR valve adjusts an exhaust reflow amount of gas flowing from an exhaust passage to an air intake passage. The supercharging pressure controller drives the supercharger to control the supercharging pressure. The EGR controller drives the EGR valve to control the exhaust gas recirculation operation. The EGR correction amount calculator calculates an EGR correction amount according to a change in the exhaust gas recirculation operation. The EGR controller performs a feedback control operation on the EGR valve in accordance with a deviation between an EGR control amount corrected by the EGR correction amount and a target EGR control amount.
