Abstract

See full text

A method for operating an internal combustion engine, in particular a gas engine, having two cylinder banks, each of which includes multiple cylinders, wherein each cylinder bank is independently supplied with charging pressure, and having a device for actively deactivating at least one cylinder of each cylinder bank. When the operating state is switched from a state with at least one deactivated cylinder to an operating state with at least one other activated cylinder, the charging pressure is reduced prior to the activation of the other cylinder.
