- the first compensation factor memory 75 selects a value between approximately 1.95 and 2 during the deactivation of the first cylinder bank 5, because now the second cylinder bank 10 has to provide approximately twice the power in order to replace the deactivated first cylinder bank 5.
- this adaptation takes place at least in one of the previously described steps for the formation of the first resulting setpoint value miresl for the internal moment.
- the losses of the first cylinder bank 5 and the losses of the second cylinder bank 10 are considered together in at least one of these steps for the formation of the resulting setpoint miresl for the internal moment.

- the losses of the first cylinder bank 5 and the losses of the second cylinder bank 10 in the step to form the second setpoint mi2 for the inner cylinder to be converted by the second cylinder bank 10 Moment be taken into account by the filtering of the clutch zero crossing of the first setpoint mil for the to be reacted by the second cylinder bank 10 inner moment by means of the first drivability föls 50. This can be done, for example, that the clutch zero-crossing 60 is determined depending on the losses of both the first cylinder bank 5 and the second cylinder bank 10.

This can be done, for example, by modifying at least one of these requirements for the inner torque to be converted by the second cylinder bank 10 as a function of the losses of the first cylinder bank 5 and the losses of the second cylinder bank 10, in particular by superposing them on the
- the requirement formed by the traction control request miasr is modified.
- the first control unit 15 is designed so that the losses of the first cylinder bank 5 and the losses of the second cylinder bank 10 are taken into account in all three exemplary steps for forming the first resulting setpoint miresl for the inner moment to be converted by the second cylinder bank 10 .
- the first loss moment mdverll and the second loss moment mdverl2 are fed to a third addition element 25 and added together there.

- a switch 130 which connects either directly the first loss moment mdverll with an input 145 of the first multiplication element 95 for multiplication with the function f (nmot) or the output of the division member 125 with this input 145 of the first multiplication element 95.
- the switch 130 which is suitably activated in a manner not shown, connects the first loss moment mdverll directly to said input 145 of the first multiplication element 95. If the first cylinder bank 5 is switched off and only the second cylinder bank 10 is activated, then the switch 130 is driven such that it outputs the divider 125th connects with said input 145 of the first multiplier 95.
- the divisor X is equal to 2, so that at the output of the division member 125, an average value of the first loss moment mdverll and the second loss moment mdverl2 results.
- This average value is multiplied during the deactivation of the first cylinder bank 5 by the function f (nmot) to form the minimum value mimin, wherein f (nmot) also during the deactivation of the first cylinder bank 5 while the second cylinder bank 10 is still activated, as already described above can be adjusted.

- the controlled switch 130 may also be fed either only to said input 145 of the first multiplication element 95 or to the loss moment input of the first drivability filter 50 indicated in the figure by reference numeral 135 or to the loss moment input of the first addition member 115 indicated by reference numeral 140.
- the controlled switch 130 in the described manner exactly two of the loss torque inputs 135, 140, 145 is assigned to realize a modification of these two loss torque inputs by means of the second loss torque mdver
- the second setpoint mi2 would correspond to the third setpoint mi3.
- the first setpoint would be equal to the second setpoint mi2.
- This coupling takes place in the manner described for the formation of the minimum value mimin depending on the first loss moment mdverll and the second loss moment mdverl2 and / or by forming the clutch zero crossing 60 depending on the first loss moment mdverll and the second loss moment mdverl2 and / or by formation at least one request miasr to be coordinated with the first minimum selection element 65 to the inner moment depending on the first loss moment mdverll and the second loss moment mdverl2.

- the first compensation factor memory 75 will select approximately the value 2 as compensation factor and that of FIG second compensation factor memory 80 selected compensation factor will assume the value zero.
- Divisor X will be set equal to 1 in this case.
- the maximum value mimax corresponds to the maximum internal torque which can be converted solely by the first cylinder bank 5 or the second cylinder bank 10, whereas in the first exemplary embodiment described above it is twice as large as that of the internal combustion engine 1, that is to say that together first cylinder bank 5 and the second cylinder bank 10 corresponds to the maximum implementable inner moment.
- the first conversion unit 85 is activated in both described operating modes, that is to say both in the case where both cylinder banks 5, 10 are activated, and in the case that the first cylinder bank 5 is deactivated and only the second cylinder bank 10 is activated, completely convert the first resulting setpoint miresl by means of the second cylinder bank 10. Accordingly, in both described operating states of this alternative second embodiment, the second conversion unit 90 will completely convert the second resulting setpoint value mires 2 by means of the first cylinder bank 5. While the first cylinder bank is turned off, the second resulting setpoint mires2 is equal to zero, because the compensation factor selected by the second compensation factor memory 80 in this operating state is equal to zero.
- the consideration of the second loss torque mdverl2 in the first control unit 15 can also be taken into account only with the end of the transient switching operation by corresponding control of the controlled switch 130.
- the second loss torque mdverl2 could already be taken into account in the described manner by corresponding activation of the controlled switch 130 during the formation of the first resulting setpoint miresl at the beginning of the transient switchover process in the first control unit 15
- Divisor X is increased, for example, by means of a ramp function from a first value ⁇ 2 at the beginning of the switching operation to the value 2 at the end of the switching process. In this case, the value ⁇ 2 to
- the compensation factors and the divisor X can then be returned to the corresponding values for full-engine operation in a corresponding manner, for example also in the form of ramps, ie the compensation factors again to the value 1 and the value X again the value applied as described ⁇ 2.
- the described consideration for the value X applies to the case in which both control units 15, 20 each predetermine the internal setpoint torque to be converted by the internal combustion engine 1 as a whole.
- the divisor X will have a suitably applied value ⁇ 1 at the beginning of the switching operation during the switchover from full engine operation to half engine operation increases the value 1 at the end of the switching process, for example ramped.
- the value ⁇ 1 can be suitably applied in such a way that at the beginning of the switching process, approximately twice the value of the first loss moment mdverll is present at the output of the divider element 125.
- the divisor X is correspondingly reversed from the value 1 to the applied value ⁇ 1, for example, in the form of a ramp.
- the first control unit 15 completely takes over the shaping and implementation of the internal torque to be delivered by the internal combustion engine 1.
- the first cylinder bank 5 in half-engine operation can also be thought of as a perfect engine, which knows no losses and consequently does not have to implement an internal torque in order to compensate for such losses.
- the first cylinder bank 5 in half-engine operation can also be thought of as a perfect engine, which knows no losses and consequently does not have to implement an internal torque in order to compensate for such losses.
- the first cylinder bank 5 in half-engine operation can also be thought of as a perfect engine, which knows no losses and consequently does not have to implement an internal torque in order to compensate for such losses.
- the first cylinder bank 5 in half-engine operation can also be thought of as a perfect engine, which knows no losses and consequently does not have to implement an internal torque in order to compensate for such losses.
- the first cylinder bank 5 in half-engine operation can also be thought of as a perfect engine, which knows no losses and consequently does not have to implement an internal torque in order
- Cylinder bank 5 in reality has losses, these are attributed to the first control unit 15 in the manner described and implemented by this means of the second cylinder bank 10.
- a compensation of all losses of the internal combustion engine 1 solely by means of the first control unit 15 and the second cylinder bank 10 is also possible in stationary half-engine operation.
- the compensation factors selected by the compensation factor stores 75, 80 can also be used to compensate for differences in the inner moments to be converted by the two cylinder banks 5, 10 due to an asynchronous activation of the optionally present throttle valves of the two cylinder banks 5, 10, in particular during activation or deactivation of the half-engine operation can be provided. Such compensation could then additionally be taken into account during the described unsteady switching operations between half engine operation and full engine operation or between full engine operation and half engine operation.
- the invention has been described above for an internal combustion engine with two cylinder banks. However, it can also be implemented in a corresponding manner for internal combustion engines having a plurality of cylinder banks, wherein at least one of the cylinder banks can be switched off and at least one cylinder bank is activated during the deactivation of the at least one cylinder bank, wherein the at least one activating
- the cylinder bank associated control unit takes into account the losses of all deactivated cylinder banks by superimposing the loss torques of all cylinder banks and optionally averaging. It is quite possible for several cylinder banks to be switched off while at the same time one or more cylinder banks are activated.
- Each cylinder bank can be assigned its own control unit as in the manner described for the figure. If several cylinder banks can only be operated together, for example, can only be activated or deactivated together, they can also be controlled by a common control unit.
