Abstract:
A control device for an internal combustion engine includes a throttle valve actuator and circuitry. The circuitry is configured to calculate, based on a target intake air amount, a target recirculated amount of recirculated exhaust gas that is recirculated to an intake passage through an exhaust gas recirculation device, calculate a corrected target recirculated amount based on the target recirculated amount and an exhaust gas recirculated amount change delay in a change in a recirculated amount of the recirculated exhaust gas, calculate a target intake pressure based on the target intake air amount and the corrected target recirculated amount, calculate a target opening degree of the throttle valve based on the target intake air amount and the target intake pressure, and control the throttle valve actuator to drive the throttle valve such that an opening degree of the throttle valve is to be equal to the target opening degree.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for controlling an internal combustion engine, comprising:\n calculating a target torque to be generated by the internal combustion engine, calculating a target intake air amount of the internal combustion engine based on the target torque, calculating, based on the target intake air amount, a target recirculated amount of recirculated exhaust gas that is recirculated to an intake passage in the internal combustion engine through an exhaust gas recirculation device of the internal combustion engine, calculating a corrected target recirculated amount based on the target recirculated amount and an exhaust gas recirculated amount change delay in a change in a recirculated amount of the recirculated exhaust gas, calculating a target intake pressure based on the target intake air amount and the corrected target recirculated amount, calculating a target opening degree of a throttle valve provided in the intake passage based on the target intake air amount and the target intake pressure, and driving the throttle valve such that an opening degree of the throttle valve is to be equal to the target opening degree.
