Abstract:
Methods and apparatus relate to air handling for an internal combustion engine system, particularly utilizing premixed air and fuel. The engine system includes an intake air throttle (IAT) having a position set in response to the engine speed and a variable valve timing module having an intake valve timing set in response to the engine load. The variable valve timing module may be a cam phaser having a position at or between full retard and full advance positions. The engine system may operate in a transient mode or a fuel efficiency mode. The IAT position is adjusted in response to an engine speed error value or set at full throttle. The cam phaser position is adjusted in response to a pressure difference across the IAT, the engine speed, or is set to a limit position.

Claim (Index 32):
The method of  claim 29 , wherein setting an intake valve timing in response to the engine speed and a pressure difference error value across the IAT further comprises determining the intake valve timing in response to an engine load, wherein the engine load is one of an actual engine load or a predicted engine load.
