Sensor
A switch makes it possible to change over from the supercharge fuel to the total fuel according
to the state of the engine.
- Until the stating phase has finished, the system uses the supercharged fuel.
- Once the engine changes to normal operation, the system uses the total fuel.
The main fuel is obtained by subtracting the pilot injection fuel from the total fuel.
A mapping determines the minimum fuel which can control an injector as a function of the rail
pressure. As soon as the main fuel falls below this value, the fuel demand changes to 0
because in any case the injector is not capable of injecting the quantity demand.
2) Driver Demand
The driver demand is the translation of the pedal position into the fuel demand. It is calculated
as a function of the pedal position and of the engine speed. The driver demand is filtered in
order to limit the hesitations caused by rapid changes of the pedal position. A mapping
determines the maximum fuel which can be injected as a function of the driver demand and the
rail pressure. Since the flow is proportional to the injection time and to the square root of the
injection pressure, it is necessary to limit the flow according to the pressure in order to avoid
extending the injection for too long into the engine cycle. The system compares the driver
demand with this limit and chooses the smaller of the 2 values. The driver demand is then
corrected according to the coolant temperature. This correction is added to the driver demand.
4) Flow Limitation
The flow limitation strategy is based on the following strategies:
- The flow limitation depending on the filling of the engine with air is determined according
to the engine speed and the air flow. This limitation allows smoke emissions to be reduced
during stabilized running.
- The flow limitation depending on the atmospheric pressure is determined according to the
engine speed and the atmospheric pressure. It allows smoke emissions to be reduced
when driving at altitude.
- The full load flow curve is determined according to the gear engaged and the engine
speed. It allows the maximum torque delivered by the engine to be limited.
- A performance limitation is introduced if faults liable to upset the rail pressure control or
the injection control are detected by the system. In this case, and depending on the gravity
of the fault, the system activates:
· Reduced fuel logic 1: Guarantees 75 % of the performance without limiting the engine
speed.
· Reduced fuel logic 2: Guarantees 50 % of the performance with the engine speed
limited to 3,000 rpm.
· Reduce fuel logic 3: Limits the engine speed to 2,000 rpm.
The system chooses the lowest of all these values.
A correction depending on the coolant temperature is added to the flow limitation. This
correction makes it possible to reduce the mechanical stresses while the engine is warming up.
The correction is determined according to the coolant temperature, the engine speed and the
time which has passed since starting.
▶ Superchager Flow Demand
The supercharge flow is calculated according to the engine speed and the coolant temperature.
A correction depending on the air temperature and the atmospheric pressure is made in order
to increase the supercharge flow during cold starts. It is possible to alter the supercharge flow
value by adding a flow offset with the aid of the diagnostic tool.
7) Accelerometer Strategy
▶ Resetting the pilot injection
The accelerometer is used to reset the pilot injection flow in closed loop for each injector. This
method allows the correction of any injector deviations over a period of time. The principle of
use of the accelerometer is based on the detection of the combustion noises.
The sensor is positioned in such a way as to receive the maximum signal for all the cylinders.
The raw signals from the accelerometer are processed to obtain a variable which quantifies the
intensity of the combustion. This variable, known as the ratio, consists of the ratio between the
intensity of the background noise and the combustion noise.
- A first window is used to establish the background noise level of the accelerometer
signal for each cylinder. This window must therefore be positioned at a moment when
there cannot be any combustion.
- The second window is used to measure the intensity of the pilot combustion. Its position
is such that only the combustion noises produced by the pilot injection are measured . It
is therefore placed just before the main injection.
The accelerometer does not allow any evaluation of the quantity injected. However, the pulse
value will be measured when the injector starts injection and this pulse value is called the MDP
(Minimum Drive Pulse). On the basis of this information, it is possible to efficiently correct the
pilot flows. The pilot injection resetting principle therefore consists of determining the MDP, in
other words the pulse corresponding to the start of the increase in value of the ratio (increase of
vibration due to fuel combustion).
This is done periodically under certain operating conditions. When the resetting is finished, the
new minimum pulse value replaces the value obtained during the previous resetting. The first
MDP value is provided by the C2I. Each resetting then allows the closed loop of the MDP to be
updated according to the deviation of the injector.
Common rail injectors are very accurate components. They are able to inject fuel delivery
between 0.5 to 100 mg/str under pressure varying from 150 to 1600 bar.
This high level of accuracy requires very low machining tolerances (few ㎛).
Nevertheless, due to the machining dispersion, the loss of charge through the functional
orifices, the friction between moving parts and electromagnetic field level are different from one
injector to the other. So, the difference of fuel delivery for the same pressure and the same
pulse can reach 5 mg/str from one injector to the other. It is impossible to control efficiently the
engine with such a dispersion between the different injectors. It is necessary to add a correction
that allows injecting the demanded fuel delivery whatever the initial hydraulic characteristics of
the injector is. The method consists in correcting the pulse that is applied to the injector with an
offset that depends on the initial hydraulic map of the injector. So, the pulse should be
corrected according to characteristics of each injector.

1) Learning Conditions
2) Trouble Codes
Accelerator pedal sensor changes accelerator pedal position into electrical signal and then
sends to ECU to let know the driver's demand. There are 2 sensors in the accelerator pedal
sensor. Accelerator pedal No.1 (ACC 1)
sensor signal determines fuel injection volume and injection timing during driving, and
accelerator pedal No. 2 (ACC 2) sensor signal compares whether the No. 1 sensor signal value
is correct.
If accelerator pedal No. 1 and 2 sensors are defective, ECU remembers defect code, and
acceleration responses are getting bad and engine rpm hardly increases.
- When depressing the accelerator pedal and brake pedal simultaneously while driving, the
acceleration response will be diminished abruptly and cannot drive with over 70 km/h even
though depressing the accelerator pedal to its end. At this time, the trouble code of "P-
1124 Accelerator pedal sensor stuck" is stored into ECU. If depressing the accelerator
pedal over 3 times, it will be resumed to normal condition.
- For detailed information, refer to "Diagnosis" section in this manual.
A/PEDAL
SENSOR
Coolant temperature sensor is a NTC resister that sends coolant temperature to ECU.
NTC resister has characteristics that if the engine temperature rises, the resistance lowers so
the ECU detects lowering signal voltages.
If the fuel injected into the engine through injector has more turbulence, then combusts very
well. However, if engine temperature is too low, the fuel injected as foggy state forms big
compounds causing incomplete combustion. So the sensor detects coolant temperature and
changes coolant temperature changes into voltage then sends to ECU to increase the fuel
volume during cold start for better starting. And detects engine overheating for fuel volume
reduction to protect the engine.
ECU functions as below with coolant temperature sensor signals.
- When engine is cold, controls fuel volume to correct idle speed.
- When engine is overheated, controls electrical fan and A/C compressor to protect the
engine.
- Sends information for emission control.
Boost pressure sensor uses piezo element and uses only 3 terminals out of 6.
It sets fuel injection timing and corrects fuel injection volume according to atmospheric pressure.
The other function is determining EGR operation stops.
CAN communication
▶ Barometric Sensor
It is built-in the ECU and detects absolute pressure of atmosphere to correct fuel injection
timing and injection volume according to altitude.
