Method for balancing engine cylinder bank output using crankshaft sensing and intake cam phasing

摘要: A method is disclosed for balancing work output from cylinder banks of an engine having a common crankshaft and separate intake camshafts with cam phasers each bank. The includes sensing rotational characteristic, such as instantaneous speed or acceleration, during the power strokes pistons predetermined comparable cylinders (or all cylinders) bank, computing average characteristics adjusting phasing at least one to obtain equal averages sensed respective banks.
