Abstract
The invention relates to a method to control an internal combustion engine. The internal combustion engine comprises a cylinder, an exhaust guide arranged to guide an exhaust flow from the cylinder through a turbine, and a bypass guide arranged to bypass a bypass flow from the cylinder past the turbine. The method comprises the step to determine a value of at least one engine operation parameter. The method is characterized by the step to determine a target value of an exhaust performance parameter depending on the determined engine operation parameter value. Further, the method comprises, depending on the determined target exhaust performance parameter value, the step to control the exhaust flow through the exhaust guide and the step to control the bypass flow through the bypass guide.
