摘要: A recirculation pump includes an impeller, a pump motor assembly, and a heater. The pump motor assembly includes a pump housing having a pump cavity and a pump motor arranged in the pump cavity that drives the impeller, the pump housing arranged axially away from the impeller. The heater is disposed on or in the pump housing and spaced apart from the impeller. The heater is configured to increase a temperature of any portion of the fluid that leaks from the impeller into the pump cavity and resides in the pump cavity. The increase in the temperature causes the fluid that resides in the pump cavity to flow toward the impeller and exit the pump cavity.

摘要: Methods and apparatuses for obtaining bainite are disclosed. The method includes heating a metal component in a vacuum chamber of a vacuum furnace to raise an internal temperature of the metal component, transferring the metal component from the vacuum chamber to a quench chamber of the vacuum furnace, quenching the metal component in oil that is maintained at a bainite-forming temperature range within a quench reservoir of the quench chamber, and removing the metal component from the quench chamber after a predetermined period of time.

摘要: A computer system is structured to determine a density of particulate matter in a diesel particulate filter (DPF) sample. The computer system includes a processing circuit having a processor and a memory. The processing circuit is structured to generate a computed tomography (CT) scan-based image of the DPF sample; and, segment the CT scan-based image of the DPF sample into a plurality of regions. For at least one region from the plurality of regions, the processing circuit is structured to determine a density of a portion of the DPF sample corresponding to the at least one region of the CT scan-based image of the DPF sample and cause an electronic display of a user device to display the CT scan-based image including the at least one region and an indication of the density for the at least one region.

摘要: A system includes a controller for an exhaust aftertreatment system including a SCR catalyst in exhaust gas-receiving communication with an engine and at least one reductant dosing system structured to provide reductant to the exhaust gas. The controller is structured to determine a ratio of NO to NO2 at or proximate an inlet of the SCR catalyst. The controller is further structured to command the at least one reductant dosing system to increase, decrease, or maintain an amount of reductant provided to the exhaust gas based on comparing the ratio of NO to NO2 to a previous NO to NO2 ratio.
