Control device for internal combustion engine
First Claim
1. An internal combustion engine system for controlling an internal combustion engine comprising a control device, a turbocharger having a turbine that is arranged in an exhaust passage and a compressor that is arranged in an intake passage, and an electric supercharger that is provided in the intake passage,the control device configured to receive and process signals input from a plurality of sensors located at various locations in the internal combustion engine system, the control device processes the signals input from the various sensors and actuates various actuators located in the internal combustion system in accordance with a predetermined control program to perform overall control of the internal combustion system, and wherein the plurality of sensors including at least one speed sensor to detect an engine speed of the internal combustion engine,the control device configured to:
- increase a rotational speed of the electric supercharger at a first rate of increase upon receipt of a torque increase request with respect to the internal combustion engine;
during a process in which a rotational speed of the electric supercharger is increasing, and when the rotational speed arrives at a predetermined switching rotational speed, change a rate of increase in the rotational speed from the first rate of increase to a second rate of increase that is less than the first rate of increase; and
set the switching rotational speed based on at least any one of an engine speed of the internal combustion engine detected by the at least one engine speed sensor, a rate of increase in the engine speed, and a supercharging pressure difference between a target supercharging pressure and an actual supercharging pressure, and to also set the second rate of increase based on at least any one of the engine speed of the internal combustion engine, the rate of increase in the engine speed, and a supercharging pressure difference between a target supercharging pressure and an actual supercharging pressure.

Abstract
A turbocharger that includes a turbine and a compressor, an electric supercharger that is arranged in an intake passage, and a control device that increases a rotational speed of the electric supercharger upon receipt of a torque increase request with respect to the internal combustion engine are provided. During a process in which the rotational speed of the electric supercharger is increasing, if the rotational speed arrives at a predetermined switching rotational speed “Ntec”, the control device decreases a rate of increase in the rotational speed from a first rate of increase “Nteup1” to a second rate of increase “Nteup2” (<Nteup1). At such time, the control device sets each of “Ntec” and “Nteup2” based on at least any one of an engine speed, a rate of increase in the engine speed, and a supercharging pressure difference between a target supercharging pressure and an actual supercharging pressure.
