Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Betreiben eines Verbrennungsmotors eines Fahrzeugs, sowie ein Steuergerät zur Durchführung des Verfahrens. Das Verfahren bzw. Steuergerät kann besonders sinnvoll eingesetzt werden bei Fahrzeugen im Vertellerverkehr, die überwiegend im Stop-and-Go-Betrieb genutzt werden. Erfindungsgemäß wurde erkannt, dass durch das Erkennen einer Stop-and-Go-Situation und eine dabei vorgenommene Beschränkung der maximalen Motordrehzahl eine erheblichen Verbrauchsreduktion und Verschleißminderung erreicht werden kann. In Tests wurde ein um mindestens 20 % reduzierter Treibstoffverbrauch ermittelt.

The invention relates to a method for operating an internal combustion engine of a vehicle, as well as to a control device for carrying out the method. The method or control unit can be used particularly sensibly in vehicles in the vertical traffic, which are mainly used in stop-and-go operation. According to the invention, it has been recognized that by recognizing a stop-and-go situation and thereby limiting the maximum engine speed, a considerable reduction in consumption and reduction in wear can be achieved. In tests, a reduced fuel consumption of at least 20% was determined.
