Abstract

See full text

In response to decrease of a requested torque to a reference value or smaller, a value of a virtual air-fuel ratio that is used in calculation of a target air amount for achieving the requested torque is changed from a first air-fuel ratio to a second air-fuel ratio that is leaner than the first air-fuel ratio. The target air amount is calculated backwards from the requested torque by using the virtual air-fuel ratio. After the value of the virtual air-fuel ratio is changed from the first air-fuel ratio to the second air-fuel ratio, the target air-fuel ratio is switched from the first air-fuel ratio to the second air-fuel ratio. A target EGR rate is calculated by using the virtual air-fuel ratio. The target EGR rate is preferably determined by minimum value selection between a first target value of an EGR rate that is calculated by using the virtual air-fuel ratio, and a second target value of the EGR rate that is calculated by using the target air-fuel ratio.
