Function requirements for injection regulation, general points 

Injection regulation, general points 

The ME-SFI [ME] control unit (N3/10) assigns the required fuel quantity to the engine.

Using the characteristics map, the ME-SFI [ME] control unit computes the injection time according to the following sensors and signals:

The requirements of the torque coordination function are also taken into account.

Function sequence for injection regulation 

The ME-SFI [ME] control unit controls the injection time under the following operating conditions:

Function sequence for partial load operation 

In partial load operation, when the engine is warm, the ME-SFI [ME] control unit computes the actuation time of the injection valves (Y62) according to the lambda control and the requested engine torque.

Function sequence for wide open throttle operation 

In full-load operation for wide open throttle operation, the ME-SFI [ME] control unit for a fully opened throttle valve extends the actuation time of the injection valves in order to ensure maximum engine torque.

IMPORTANT At the accelerator pedal sensor, about 10 to 90% slewing range is defined as partial load and more than about 90% slewing range is defined as wide open throttle.

Function sequence for acceleration 

When there is rapid variation of the accelerator pedal position, the throttle valve also opens and closes rapidly. This causes the mixture to become briefly leaner or richer.

To prevent this, the ME-SFI [ME] control unit adapts the fuel-air mixture, by shortening or lengthening the actuation time of the injection valves according to a performance map.

This prevents jerking of the engine.
