Abstract:
The invention provides a three-way catalytic converter preheating control method and system, a vehicle and a storage medium. The includes when the temperature of an exhaust pipe of the hybrid electric vehicle is lower than a first temperature threshold value, sending a first work instruction; the high-low pressure conversion module outputting a first working voltage according to the first working instruction so as to start preheating of a catalyst in a three-way catalytic converter; when working data of the hybrid electric vehicle meets the switching condition, sending a second working instruction to make the high-low voltage conversion module outputs a second working voltage and stops outputting the first working voltage so as to stop the electric heating. According to the invention, two working modes can be provided, and the power battery can be used for electrically heating the catalyst in advance through the high-low pressure conversion module.

Abstract:
A controller including a self-tuning circuit for controlling a pressure system to output an input pressure corresponding to an input pressure value using an adaptive fuzzy control system and updating dosing command values of a dosing command table for controlling a dosing unit of an aftertreatment system. The self-tuning circuit is configured to determine an input pressure value and generate a pressure control signal using the adaptive fuzzy control system based on the input pressure value, a detected input pressure, and an error amount. The self-tuning circuit is further configured to regulate the input pressure of reductant to the dosing unit from a reductant tank using a pressure control signal for a pressure control device. The self-tuning circuit is further configured to update a dosing command value of a dosing command table of the controller in conjunction with regulating the input pressure of reductant.
Abstract:
The control system of an internal combustion engine performs normal operation control including lean control for making the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the exhaust purification catalyst a lean air-fuel ratio, and rich control for making the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the exhaust purification catalyst a rich air-fuel ratio. The normal operation control includes judgment reference decreasing control decreasing the judgment reference storage amount in the lean control when during the time period of performing the lean control, the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing out from the exhaust purification catalyst becomes the lean judged air-fuel ratio or more. The control system judges that the exhaust purification catalyst is abnormal when the judgment reference storage amount becomes less than a deterioration judgment value.

Abstract:
A method for checking the leak-tightness of hydraulic components in an exhaust gas aftertreament unit of an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The exhaust gas aftertreament unit uses an electric motor to pump a liquid reductant from a reductant reservoir to a reductant injector that is kept closed. The reductant pump is switched on for a first predetermined period, and the electric current consumed by the electric motor is detected during this period. After a predetermined standstill time has passed, the reductant pump is switched on again for a second period identical to the first period, and the electric current consumed by the electric motor is again detected during this period. The electric currents detected during the two time periods are compared with each other, and the leak-tightness of the hydraulic components downstream of the reductant pump is evaluated based on the result of the comparison.

An exhaust pipe valve may be opened or closed by an actuator to direct exhaust through the downwardly directed exhaust pipe during regeneration of the diesel particulate filter if a signal from a ground speed sensor indicates ground speed above a first speed, or through the upwardly directed exhaust pipe if the ground speed is below a second speed.

A bypass mechanism is disclosed for use with a turbocharger. The bypass mechanism may have an exhaust passage formed by at least a first wall, and a bypass manifold formed by at least a second wall surrounding the exhaust passage and including a space between the first wall and the second wall. The bypass mechanism may further have at least one opening in the first wall fluidly connecting the exhaust passage with the space. At least one valve is configured to open and close the opening to selectively allow exhaust gas to pass from the exhaust passage to the space through the at least one opening. The space may be fluidly connected to at least one entry passage of an exhaust stack. In addition, the at least one opening and the at least one entry passage may be positioned on opposite sides of the exhaust passage.
