摘要:
The present invention is intended to detect insulation failure of an EHC. In the invention, a heat generation element of the EHC is electrically insulated by an insulating member. Then, a determination as to whether insulation failure has occured is made based on an insulation resistance value of the insulating member at the time when an amount of water absorption in the insulating member is smaller than a predetermined amount of water absorption and when an amount of PM deposition in the insulating member is smaller than a predetermined amount of PM deposition, a change in the insulation resistance value of the insulating member at the time when the amount of water absorption in the insulating member decreases from an amount equal to or larger than the predetermined amount of water absorption to an amount smaller than the predetermined amount of water absorption, and a change in the insulation resistance value of the insulating member at the time when the amount of PM deposition in the insulating member decreases from an amount equal to or larger than the predetermined amount of PM deposition to an amount smaller than the predetermined amount of PM deposition.

Method for fault detection in an exhaust system (3). By analysis of the temperature increase in the exhaust gases which is generated by fuel injected by a fuel injection device (20) upstream of a fuel oxidation device (5), and by analysis of the NOx conversion which is generated by reducing agent injected by a reducing agent injection device (30) upstream of an SCR catalyst (7), the method determines whether there is in the exhaust system an exhaust mass flow error due to exhaust leakage in the exhaust line (4) upstream of the fuel and reducing agent injection points (8,13) or to incorrectly determined value for the mass flow of the exhaust gases which are received by the exhaust line from a combustion engine (1).

The invention relates to a method for operating an internal combustion engine (10) comprising at least one combustion chamber (14), wherein fuel is directly injected into the combustion chamber (14) during a work cycle of the internal combustion engine (10). According to the inventive method, fuel is directly post-injected into the combustion chamber after the fuel is injected for the actual work cycle. Said after-injected fuel is ignited as a result of the ignition of the injected fuel already occurring in the combustion chamber. The invention is characterized in that exhaust gases discharged from the combustion chamber (14) are heated for post-combustion of the non-combusted fuel content before they are fed to at least one catalytic converter (18, 20, 22) for aftertreatment of the exhaust gases.
摘要:
A safe, reliable SCR system for reducing NOx emissions from a lean-burn internal combustion engine utilizes urea in aqueous solution. Overheating and hydrolysis of the solution are prevented by maintaining the temperature of the urea solution sufficiently low that it is not permitted sufficient time at elevated temperature to hydrolyze the urea to such an extent that solids precipitate. In a preferred embodiment, an injector system similar to those used for fuel injection provides a constant feed to injectors and a return line. The feed and injection can be controlled to provide sufficient urea for NOx reduction and sufficient cooling capacity for the feed and injection system to avoid hydrolysis and deposits of hydrolysis products.

The invention relates to a device and a method for determining the pollutant concentration of an exhaust gas at a first point (5) of an exhaust-gas system in an internal combustion engine (2). According to said method, a sensor (4) for determining the pollutant concentration is placed at a second point (6), downstream (3) of the first point (5) in the exhaust-gas system. Said sensor records a measured value, which is then transmitted to a chronological member (7), the latter (7) taking into consideration the time delay between a recording of a measured value at the first point (5) and a recording at the second point (6) and transmitting the measured value to a diagnostic unit (8), whereby said measured value is chronologically correlated with other, non-deferred measured values. Sensitive gas sensors can thus be placed at cooler points of the exhaust-gas system that are less exposed to vibration and can nevertheless determine the pollutant concentration at another point.
