Abstract

A method involves receiving a plurality of engine parameters and a sensed ambient operating condition during operation of an engine and determining a current substitution rate based on the plurality of engine parameter. The method also involves determining at least one of a pre-combustion temperature and an end gas temperature based on the plurality of engine parameters and the sensed ambient operating condition and determining a maximum substitution rate based on at least one of the pre-combustion temperature and the end gas temperature. The method further involves comparing the current substitution rate with the maximum substitution rate and controlling at least one engine parameter among the plurality of engine parameters if the current substitution rate is different from the maximum substitution rate so as to generate the current substitution rate to less than or equal to the maximum substitution rate.
