Abstract
A method for operating an internal combustion engine, in which a setpoint torque to be output by the internal combustion engine is restricted to a specifiable torque, in particular in response to an error in the control of the internal combustion engine. An engine speed of the internal combustion engine is determined as a function of at least one performance quantity of the internal combustion engine, and the specifiable torque is modified as a function of the determined engine speed.
Claims19
A method for operating an internal combustion engine, comprising:
- restricting a setpoint torque to be output by the internal combustion engine to a specifiable torque in response to an error in a control of the internal combustion engine;
- determining a maximally allowed engine speed of the internal combustion engine as a function of a signal of an accelerator sensor;
- and
- modifying the specifiable torque as a function of the determined engine speed.
A control device for an internal combustion engine, comprising:
- a control arrangement adapted to restrict a setpoint torque to be output by the internal combustion engine to a specifiable torque in response to an error in a control of the internal combustion engine and adapted to determine a maximally allowed engine speed of the internal combustion engine as a function of a signal of an accelerator sensor and to modify the setpoint torque as a function of the determined engine speed.
