摘要： A control system for a vehicle includes a location identification module, an adjustment triggering module, and an adjustment module. The location identification module identifies a location where an engine of the vehicle is expected to be shut down and later re-started with at least one temperature within a predetermined range of an ambient temperature at the time of the re-start. The adjustment triggering module generates a triggering signal when a vehicle location provided by a global positioning system (GPS) is less than a predetermined distance from the identified location. The adjustment module selectively one of increases and decreases a rate at which a dosing agent is injected into an exhaust system, upstream of a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst, when the triggering signal is generated.

摘要： The methods of the present invention are adapted to adjust engine loading during catalyst warm up to accelerate heating of the exhaust aftertreatment system and thereby decrease catalyst light-off times. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the method includes: monitoring the current catalyst temperature; determining if the current catalyst temperature is less than a predetermined minimum catalyst temperature; and, if the current catalyst temperature is less than the predetermined minimum catalyst temperature, increasing the current engine load. The current engine load is increased by activating a reducing agent tank heating device and/or a reducing agent line heating device.

摘要： A mixer for an exhaust aftertreatment system, such as a diesel engine exhaust aftertreatment system, is disclosed. The mixer includes a body portion that is configured to be disposed in an exhaust conduit upstream of an exhaust aftertreatment device and an airfoil portion that is disposed on the body portion and reversibly movable between a deployed position and a retracted position, wherein in the deployed position the airfoil portion provides a deployed resistance to an exhaust gas flow and in the retracted position provides a retracted resistance, and the deployed resistance is greater than the retracted resistance. The mixer preferably comprises a two-way shape memory alloy, particularly a high temperature, oxidation resistant shape memory alloy. An exhaust aftertreatment system employing the mixer is also disclosed, as well as a method of using the same.
