Claim 18:
19. An engine test apparatus comprising a controller that executes a process comprising:
acquiring a first test pattern in which an operation variable that is used for an engine test is changed in time series;
inputting, based on the first test pattern, a first operation variable to a mathematical model that represents a time series response of an engine obtained by inputting a test pattern as a simulation of the engine test;
monitoring, as a first monitoring parameter of engine abnormality, at least one of an air excess ratio, pressure and temperature of an intake manifold, pressure and temperature of an exhaust manifold, and a maximum cylinder pressure rise rate that are obtained by inputting the first operation variable to the mathematical model;
holding, when the first monitoring parameter exceeds a first threshold value, the first operation variable until the first monitoring parameter is less than the first threshold value;
creating a history of the first operation variable in the simulation as a second test pattern;
monitoring, as a second monitoring parameter, at least one of the air excess ratio, the pressure and the temperature of the intake manifold, the pressure and the temperature of the exhaust manifold, and the maximum cylinder pressure rise rate that are obtained by inputting a second operation variable to a real engine based on the second test pattern;
holding, when the second monitoring parameter exceeds a second threshold value, the second operation variable until the second monitoring parameter is less than the second threshold value; and
acquiring time series data of the second operation variable and a controlled variable.
