Abstract

See full text

A method for controlling an internal combustion engine system including a catalyst includes receiving a desired output for an internal combustion engine, and receiving sensor information including information indicative of a temperature of the catalyst. The method includes calculating a plurality of sets of engine performance values based on respective sets of candidate control points, the engine performance values including a temperature change rate at which the temperature of the catalyst changes over time, and determining whether the temperature change rate satisfies a minimum warmup rate for the catalyst. The method also includes controlling the internal combustion engine based on a selected set of candidate control points and the minimum warmup rate.
