  • Description: Abstract Ion-sense is a technique to probe the in-cylinder combustion by applying, after ignition, a sense voltage across the spark plug gap and measure the current through the gap. This current measurement is a complicated function that contains a lot of information about the in-cylinder pressure, temperature and combustion. To extract this information, a major contribution here is a simple analytical ionization current model that consists of explicit analytical submodels for in-cylinder pressure, temperature, thermal ionization, and ionization current. Since the model is analytical, the on-board signal interpretation is a simple adaptation of some model parameters. Experimental validation shows good agreement, and thus paves the way towards real-time on-board engine calibration.
