The invention discloses a method for coating micro/nano-metal powder by chemical vapor deposition, including: decomposing difluorocarbene precursor gas via a cracking pipe to generate difluorocarbene free radicals; contacting the generated difluorocarbene free radicals with micro/nano-metal powder, and due to polymerization between difluorocarbene free radicals, a compact polytetrafluoroethylene coating film is generated on the surface of micro/nano-metal powder.

In the invention, the ignition temperature of metal powder is effectively decreased, the ignition delay time is shortened, and the combustion speed of metal powder is improved; the surface of metal powder coated with polytetrafluoroethylene is highly hydrophobic, so that reactive metal powder can be effectively prevented from absorption of moisture and oxidation.

In a control method and control device for an engine, in order to prevent torque control precision from deteriorating while performing an ignition retard control in a variable valve engine, when a torque down control is carried out by using the ignition retard, combustion duration is calculated in consideration of valve timing or an engine rpm for each driving state, and a characteristic of a reference ignition timing efficiency curve is corrected on the basis of a difference between the combustion duration and a combustion duration reference value which is set in advance.

A method for compensating fuel injection timing when a torque signal or throttle command indicates that a transient operation is about to transpire. The control adjusts the fuel injection timing in advance of the transient operation to prevent loss of torque due to change in combustion phase position. During engine operation in pre-mix mode of combustion, rapid changes in fueling quantity can affect the combustion angle as well as the temperature in the combustion chamber, causing late or early combustion phasing. The present invention anticipates a change in combustion phasing by sensing a change in demanded fueling rate. The Engine Control Module (ECM) then applies a nest of algorithms to advance fuel injection timing during acceleration or to shorten ignition delay for deceleration by retarding fuel injection timing. As the engine returns to steady state operation, the compensation in injection timing is progressively reduced to zero.

To optimize an ignition timing of premixture for improving fuel efficiency regardless of significant change in an EGR ratio or a fluctuation in temperature of recirculated exhaust gas and temperature in a combustion chamber, there is provided a control apparatus for a diesel engine which controls an injector extending into the combustion chamber to execute a main-injection for injecting fuel and increasing the EGR ratio, so as to attain the premixed compressive ignition combustion while the engine is in the premixed combustion region on the low load side. Just before or after a cool flame reaction occurs in the mixture formed by the main-injection, an auxiliary-injection is executed so that the latent heat of vaporization of the fuel decreases the temperature of the mixture to delay the ignition to a timing near TDC. The auxiliary-injection amount is adjusted according to the estimated value of EGR ratio or the change in the crank angular velocity to optimize the ignition timing of the mixture.

A throttle position corresponding to a R-R torque representing a torque in which a reserve torque is added to a required torque at MBT is computed. The throttle position is offset by an amount of a reserve torque in a torque increasing direction. An ignition retard amount for obtaining the required torque is computed based on a ration between the required torque and the R-R torque to cancel an increment in torque due to the offset of the throttle position. Because the offset amount of the ignition timing in the retard direction can be computed without an estimated torque which is determined based on the intake air flow rate including the leak air, it is restricted that the ignition retard amount becomes too large even if the large amount of leak air is generated at the throttle valve.

Upper and lower limit guards are given to the obtained divided amount, and the divided injection amount is calculated. The injection amount of the main injection is obtained by subtracting the divided injection amount from the total fuel injection amount.

During high-load operation of an engine, fuel for initial slow-burning combustion and premixed combustion is injected into a combustion chamber by continuous fuel injection, then fuel injection is paused, and fuel for diffusion combustion is injected after a predetermined interval has elapsed. Also, the fuel injection amount in the continuous fuel injection is set higher than the fuel injection amount for diffusion combustion. A spray autointerference cooling effect is achieved by the continuous fuel injection, thus promoting ignition delay so as to increase the proportion of premixed combustion, thereby suppressing the production of smoke. This enables high-volume EGR to be performed, thus enabling reducing the amount of NOx produced.
