A method for estimating exhaust temperature on an output of an internal combustion engine cylinder, the cylinder including a crankshaft transforming into a rotation a translational movement of a piston mounted sliding in the cylinder, the piston closing a combustion chamber of the cylinder. The exhaust temperature is estimated based on the temperature inside the cylinder at a time of opening of the valve, the temperature inside the cylinder being itself estimated from an angle of rotation of the crankshaft, cylinder pressure, volume of air injected into the cylinder, and flow rate of recycled gases. A method diagnoses a cylinder pressure sensor based on an estimate of the exhaust temperature.

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for estimating exhaust temperature at an outlet of a cylinder of an internal combustion engine, the outlet being closed by an exhaust valve that can open to let out gases present inside the cylinder, and the cylinder including a crankshaft converting to rotation a translational movement of a piston mounted such that the piston can slide in the cylinder, the piston closing a combustion chamber of the cylinder, the method comprising: measuring, at a time preceding a time of opening of the exhaust valve, an angle of rotation of the crankshaft and a cylinder pressure inside the combustion chamber, and determining a volume of the combustion chamber according to the angle of rotation; determining a mass of air and a proportion of recycled gases in the combustion chamber at the time of opening, and deducing from the determining a related total mass of gas; determining a cylinder temperature inside the cylinder according to the cylinder pressure, the volume of the combustion chamber, and the total mass of gas at the time of the opening of the exhaust valve; and determining the exhaust temperature according to the cylinder temperature. 2. The method as claimed in claim 1, in which, during the determining the exhaust temperature according to the cylinder temperature, a linear equation (Texh=A·TBBDC+B) is used, in which Texh is exhaust temperature and TBBDC is a time of opening of the exhaust valve. 3. The method as claimed in claim 1, in which, during the determining the cylinder temperature, the mass of air and/or proportion of recycled gases are/is estimated according to the angle of rotation of the crankshaft from a table or from a mathematical model, or are/is measured. 4. The method as claimed in claim 1, in which, during the determining the mass of air, the total mass of gas is obtained from equation: Mtot=Mair/(1−TEGR), in which Mtot is the total mass of gas, Mair is the mass of air, and TEGR is the proportion of recycled gases. 5. A method for testing a cylinder pressure sensor located inside a cylinder of an internal combustion engine, the cylinder including an outlet closed by an exhaust valve that can open to let out gases present inside the cylinder, the method comprising: measuring a cylinder pressure at a time preceding an opening of an exhaust valve of the cylinder; estimating an exhaust temperature from the measured cylinder pressure, employing a method as claimed in claim 1; measuring an exhaust temperature at the outlet of the cylinder; and comparing the estimated exhaust temperature and the measured exhaust temperature, and deducing from the comparison a normal operation or a defective condition of the cylinder pressure sensor.
