Robust strategy for intake leakage detection in diesel engines

Fault detection is motivated by the needs of guaranteeing high-performance engine behavior and regarding to the environmentally-based legislative regulations. An adaptive model-based observer strategy is applied for the fault detection and estimation. The hole estimation relies on the model accuracy and sensors precision. In this paper is provided by a model-based upper bound for leakage error estimation for threshold design by the mean of the observer sensitivity study. The proposed approach generates a threshold based only on the available measures even if faulty. Simulation results are provided using advanced Diesel engine developed under AMEsim.
