Smooth Running Control

Smooth Running Control

The smooth running control facility balances out the speed variations of the individual cylinders caused by different fuel injection rates and degrees of cylinder efficiency. This is achieved by rapid application of controlled corrected fuel injection rates at each cylinder for each injection.
The maximum compensation output by the DDE depends on the fuel injection rate and is between ± 3 and ± 6 mm/stroke.
The control is active within a certain engine speed and fuel injection rate range:
- Engine speed range: target idle speed up to 3500 rpm
- Fuel injection rate range, speed-dependent: idle speed up to 2000 rpm: Fuel injection rate
< 60 mg/stroke.2000 rpm to 2500 rpm: interpolated between 60 mg/stroke and 45 mg/stroke. Above 2500 rpm: Fuel injection rate < 45 mg/stroke.

Monitoring
If the correction quantities are not reached or are exceeded, the following faults can be stored:
- Operational smoothness regulator, correction quantity too high/too low: The limit value for at least one cylinder was not reached or was exceeded.
- Operational smoothness regulator cylinder X, correction amount too high/too low: The limit value at the cylinder X was exceeded or fallen below, while the correction amounts to the other cylinders were OK.

The limit value is dependent on the fuel injection rate and is between ± 4.9 and ± 5.9 mm/stroke.
