Abstract

See full text

A method for switching the modes of operation of an internal combustion engine switches between a method of homogeneous compression ignition and a conventional combustion method. The operating ranges of the modes of operation are defined at least by way of speed of rotation and load, and a switch between the operating ranges takes place as a function of the current operating point and of quantifiable characteristics of the trajectory as well as of the distance of the current operating point from the range limit of the operating range. Characteristics of the trajectory are the current movement direction and/or the speed of approach of the operating point to the range limit.
