Abstract
A control device for an internal combustion engine. An object of the present invention is to provide a control device for an international combustion engine for highly accurate absolute pressure correction irrespective of the length of an adiabatic compression stroke period. When the number of cylinders in an engine is n (n is an integer of 2 or more), an adiabatic compression stroke period of one cylinder preceding another cylinder to be corrected into its absolute pressure by a 1/n cycle (ignition timing —IVC) is compared with a threshold CA(step). In the step, the absolute pressure correction is carried out based on PV=constant when the adiabatic compression stroke period is longer than the threshold CA(step). On the other hand, the absolute pressure correction is carried out based on a value Pdetected by an intake pipe pressure sensor when the adiabatic compression stroke period is shorter than the threshold CA.
