Abstract

A fuel injection control system and method for controlling a fuel injection control system of a direct injection internal combustion engine, capable of issuing a pilot and a main injection during fuel injection into an engine cylinder, determining whether a pilot injection is enabled or disabled for each of the plurality of direct injection devices for each engine operation cycle, and modifying a corresponding main injection timing at least on the basis of the pilot injection determination. The fuel injection control system including at least one direct fuel injection device operable to deliver partitioned separate injections of fuel directly into a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine. The control system operable on the basis of engine operating parameters to control operation of the at least one direct fuel injection device, and to determine the partitioned separate injections of fuel including a pilot injection fuel quantity, a main injection fuel quantity, an anchor injection fuel quantity, a pilot injection timing and duration, a main injection timing and duration, and an anchor injection timing and duration. The fuel injection control system providing these pa…
