Abstract

A diesel engine, includes: an exhaust gas recirculation device that recirculates an exhaust gas emitted from the diesel engine to an intake side of the diesel engine; an intake air amount sensor that measures an intake air amount of the diesel engine; a NOx measurement sensor that measures NOx contained in the exhaust gas emitted from the diesel engine; and a control device that obtains a correction value for correcting a measured value by the intake air amount sensor based on a difference between first information on NOx obtained based on information on a rotation speed of the diesel engine and information on a load and second information on NOx measured by the NOx measurement sensor to control the exhaust gas recirculation device based on the measured value by the intake air amount sensor corrected using the correction value.
