Target Based Rapid Prototyping Control System for Engine Research

摘要: Today's advanced technology engines have a high content of electronic actuation requiring sophisticated real-time embedded software sensing and control. To enable research on such engines, system with flexible engine control unit (ECU) that can be rapidly configured programmed is desired. Such being used in the Advanced Internal Combustion Engine (AICE) Laboratories at Michigan Tech University (MTU) for multicylinder, spark-ignited gasoline, high-pressure, common-rail diesel single-cylinder alternative fuels engine. The combines production ECU development utilizing Mathworks Simulink/Stateflow\sC modelling tools. interface Simulink environment includes library blocks to Operating System (OS), Low Level Drivers (LLD) CAN-based calibration tool. controls compilation completed entirely models autocoded C linked compiled commercial-off-theshelf With this Target-Based, Rapid-Prototyping system, sets been developed employ time angle-based preemptive multitasking components. components integrated include primary actuators, fuel spark, along comprehensive set secondary including high-pressure pump, throttle, variable cam phase, exhaust gas recirculation combustion knock detection Tasking generated gasoline applications are provided discussed respect their integration into architecture. In addition, implementation timing phase application as an illustrative example tool, process
