Engine system and control method therefor

ActiveEP3431740B1Mechanical controlValve arrangements
A fuel-air mixture of a fuel gas and air is combusted in a combustion chamber in a gas mode of a marine dual fuel engine (1). When power of the engine (1) is increased, power is calculated by a control unit (22) from data on a rotational speed and a torque measured by a rotational speed sensor (20) and a torque sensor (21) of a crankshaft (2). Advance of an opening / closing timing of an intake valve (8) is set from a first map (24) and a second map (25) on the basis of the data on the rotational speed and the power. A second electric signal of the opening / closing timing is converted into a pressure by an electropneumatic converter (27) and adjusts a movement amount of a rod using an actuator (28). A variable intake valve timing mechanism (30) is operated on the basis of the movement amount of the rod to adjust the opening / closing timing of the intake valve (8) by advancing the opening / closing timing of the intake valve (8), and control of lowering a compression ratio of a fuel-air mixture is performed. A power-up speed can be increased while preventing knocking by setting advance amount of the opening / closing timing of the intake valve (8) using the first map and the second map in which the advance amount is previously determined.
