Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for adjusting flow of exhaust gas from downstream of an exhaust turbine outlet to an exhaust gas aftertreatment device inlet via a compact turbine outlet cone with adjustable swirl vanes. Exhaust flow reaching the exhaust gas aftertreatment device is adjusted based on a desired exhaust gas temperature and exhaust gas flow rate at the aftertreatment device. During cold start conditions, the swirl vanes may be closed to concentrate exhaust gas flowing towards a portion of the aftertreatment device while after attainment of aftertreatment device light-off temperature, the position of the swirl vanes may be adjusted to introduce turbulence and homogeneity to exhaust flow reaching the exhaust aftertreatment device.
Abstract:
A regeneration device (22) executes regeneration treatment of a filter (21) in an exhaust gas purifying device (18) by burning particulate matter trapped in the filter (21). The regeneration device (22) interrupts the regeneration treatment of the filter (21) when an exhaust gas temperature T detected by an exhaust gas temperature sensor (26) becomes less than an exhaust gas temperature threshold Tt during a period of performing the regeneration treatment of the filter (21). In a case where the regeneration treatment of the filter (21) is interrupted, when the exhaust gas temperature T becomes equal to or more than the exhaust gas temperature threshold Tt, the regeneration treatment of the filter (21) is restarted.

Abstract:
A method for treating exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine involves introducing less fuel into at least one first cylinder of the internal combustion engine than into at least one second cylinder of the internal combustion engine. Exhaust gas emerging from the at least one first cylinder is at least partially recycled into a supply air section of the internal combustion engine. At least the exhaust gas of the at least one second cylinder is supplied to an exhaust gas after-treatment unit. An exhaust gas line, by means of which exhaust gas of the at least one first cylinder of the exhaust gas after treatment unit can be supplied, is at least partially blocked.

A burner for an exhaust gas purification device includes: an exhaust pipe through which exhaust gas from the engine flows; a tube-shaped flame stabilizer which has a space in which fuel combusts; and an exhaust gas supply pipe which is connected to the exhaust pipe and to the flame stabilizer and which supplies exhaust gas into the space in the flame stabilizer.
Abstract:
A diesel particulate defuser (“DPD”) is connected to an exhaust pipe of a diesel engine, an exhaust gas temperature during automatic regeneration of the DPD is detected, and the difference between the detected exhaust gas temperature and a target regeneration temperature is determined. In a case where an exhaust pipe injection amount is PID controlled based on this difference, when an exhaust brake valve is closed during traveling automatic regeneration, the exhaust pipe injection is stopped and calculation of an integral control term by the PID control is continued as long as the exhaust valve brake valve is closed, and when the exhaust brake valve is opened, the integral control term that has been continuously calculated is taken as an initial operation amount.
Abstract:
In the exhaust gas purification system, a diesel particulate defuser (“DPD”) for trapping particulate matter (“PM”) in exhaust gas is connected to an exhaust pipe of an engine to automatically regenerate the DPD by raising a temperature of the exhaust gas from the engine by carrying out post injection when an amount of PM in the DPD exceeds a predetermined amount. Further, the system includes detecting the temperature of the exhaust gas during DPD regeneration when the DPD is automatically regenerated, calculating a deviation between the detected temperature of the exhaust gas and a target temperature for the DPD regeneration, and controlling a quantity of the post injection by resetting an integral control term used in a PID control to zero when running mode automatic regeneration is shifted to idling mode automatic regeneration after a vehicle is stopped, when PID-controlling the quantity of the post injection based on the deviation.
Abstract:
A diesel particulate filter (“DPF”) system that is more convenient than a conventional DPF system, including a DPF having a catalyzed soot filter (“CSF”) that is connected to an exhaust pipe of a diesel engine in order to collect particulate matter (“PM”) in exhaust gas, and a diesel oxidation catalyst (“DOC”) provided on an upstream side of the CSF; and temperature sensors provided respectively on an upstream side and a downstream side of the DOC. When a PM accumulation amount in the CSF exceeds a fixed amount, DPF regeneration is performed by setting a temperature detected by the upstream side temperature sensor at or above a first threshold and setting a temperature detected by the downstream side temperature sensor at or above a second threshold. When a breakdown is detected in the upstream side temperature sensor, the second threshold is modified upward.
