10 Electronic air-fuel ratio control 17.12.2018
10.3 Modulating operation
In modulating mode, it is possible to operate 2 actuators. The burner‘s output can be
regulated between 20.0% (low-fire) and 100.0% (high-fire) in increments of 0.1%. Since
the actuators are never allowed to operate simultaneously, the output is increased in
small steps of 1%. In the case of an operating ramp of 20% after 100% in 32 seconds,
this represents 1 step in 400 ms. Within such an output step, the air actuator is operated
in the first 200 ms, and the fuel actuator in the second 200 ms.
10.3.1 Definition of curves
The air-fuel ratio curves are defined by 10 curvepoints that are fixed and distributed
across the output range.
The following assignment applies:
Curvepoint Output Meaning
P0 10% Point of ignition, not approached in the operating position
P1 20% Low-fire
P2 30%
P3 40%
P4 50%
P5 60%
P6 70%
P7 80%
P8 90%
P9 100% High-fire
The actuator positions can be set with a resolution of 0.1°.
Between the curvepoints, the positions are interpolated in a linear manner.
