Abstract

A method of controlling a gas engine connected to a turbocharger including a compressor and a turbine includes: performing a knocking control operation of optimizing an ignition timing as a steady operation; and in a case where a load of the gas engine increases during the steady operation, when a degree of increase in the load is relatively small, gradually increasing an actual fuel injection amount while keeping the ignition timing, and when the degree of increase in the load is relatively great, retarding the ignition timing and then gradually increasing the actual fuel injection amount.
