Abstract: An electrical heater assembly and an exhaust treatment assembly. The electrical heater assembly includes a heater body including an array of intersecting walls that form a plurality of channels extending in an axial direction. The intersecting walls and channels together define a honeycomb pattern of cells. A plurality of slots extend from an outer periphery of the heater body and terminate within the heater body. Each of the plurality of slots disconnects some of the cells of the heater body from each other to define a serpentine current-carrying path through the heater body. Each slot comprises a receptacle portion located between opposing portions of the slot. A plurality of slot separators located respectively in the receptacle portions. Each slot separator has dimensions greater than the opposing portions of the slot to provide support to the heater body in all directions perpendicular to the axial direction.

Abstract: An electrical heater assembly, an exhaust treatment assembly, and method of manufacture. The electrical heater assembly includes a heater body including a plurality of slots disconnecting portions of the heater body from each other. Each slot includes a first end portion that extends to a second end portion, and a receptacle portion located between the first end portion and the second end portion. Portions of the heater body not disconnected by the plurality of slots form a serpentine current-carrying path through the heater body. The first end portion of each slot has a first width, the second end portion of each slot has a second width, and the receptacle portion of each slot has a third width, and the third width is larger than both the first width and the second width.

Abstract: A method of predicting temperature of at least one location in a fluid flow system that has a heating system for heating fluid. The method includes obtaining a mass flow rate of fluid flow of the fluid flow system, obtaining at least one of a fluid outlet temperature and a fluid inlet temperature of a heater of the heating system, obtaining power provided to the heater, and calculating temperature at the at least one location based on a model of the fluid flow system and the obtained mass flow rate, fluid outlet temperature, and fluid inlet temperature.

Abstract: A heating unit for an exhaust-gas system of an internal combustion engine includes a heating-unit housing for conducting an exhaust-gas in a main flow direction. A plurality of heating elements are arranged in the heating-unit housing and are shaped in a meandering manner. Each heating element has a plurality of plate-like heating sections which follow one another in a heating-element longitudinal direction. The heating sections of each heating element are connected to one another via respective connecting sections. Each heating element has two connection regions which are arranged at a distance from one another. In each connection region, the heating elements are electrically conductively connected to a connection region of a further heating element.
