Abstract

A method and apparatus for converting a desired torque to a throttle area to generate the desired torque in an internal combustion engine including the steps of converting the desired torque to an air per cylinder value, converting the desired torque to an indicated mean effective pressure, converting the indicated mean effective pressure to a manifold pressure, and converting the manifold pressure to the throttle area.
