Programmable open and closed loop electronics for control of an internal combustion engine. The following functions are integrated in a known method and the corresponding device: “closed loop combustion control of a gas engine, program for automatic starting and stopping of the unit, monitoring of the temperatures and pressures of gas, water, lubricant and exhaust gas and of levels inside the installation, driving of the ignition unit, setting of the speed controller, control of the auxiliary circulation systems, monitoring of the generator winding temperature, self-monitoring of the control unit and of the probes, and storage of the measured values for monitoring and diagnostic purposes.” According to the invention, the concentration of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and/or of fluorine and/or of chlorine in the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine is quantitatively measured with an exhaust gas sensor (6) continuously while the internal combustion engine is operating. The values of the nitrogen oxide emission are especially suitable both for monitoring and also for open and closed loop control of an appropriately equipped internal combustion engine.
Method for open and closed loop control and monitoring of an internal combustion engine with programmable open and closed loop control electronics to which measurement signals from sensors and/or transmitters arranged on the internal combustion engine are supplied, the open and closed loop control electronics driving control elements and/or actuators for intervention in the operation of the internal combustion engine, and the open and closed loop control electronics exhibiting an interface for data interchange,
Method according to one of the foregoing claims,
Open and closed loop control electronics for the open and closed loop control and monitoring of an internal combustion engine, measurement signals from sensors and/or transmitters arranged on the internal combustion engine being supplied to the open and closed loop control electronics, the open and closed loop control electronics driving control elements and/or actuators for intervention in the operation of the internal combustion engine, and the open and closed loop control electronics exhibiting an interface for data interchange,
