    Abstract: A method of estimating a current soot output from an engine includes sensing a mass flow rate of a flow of exhaust gas from the engine, and defining a soot output base rate of the engine when the engine is operating at a reference state. A soot ratio for a current operating state of the engine is calculated. The mass flow rate, the soot output base rate, and the soot ratio are multiplied together to define an estimated value of the current soot output from the engine. The soot ratio is based on current engine operating parameters, including an air/fuel ratio of the engine, an exhaust gas recirculation ratio of the engine, a fuel injection pressure of the engine, and a fuel injection timing of the engine.

    Abstract: A method of estimating hydrocarbon storage in a catalytic device of an exhaust gas treatment system includes calculating an amount of hydrocarbons absorbed in the catalytic device per unit volume of exhaust gas over a period of time, calculating an amount of hydrocarbons desorbed in the catalytic device per unit volume of exhaust gas over the period of time, and calculating an amount of hydrocarbons oxidized in the catalytic device per unit volume of exhaust gas over the period of time. The amount of hydrocarbons oxidized in the catalytic device and the amount of hydrocarbons desorbed in the catalytic device are subtracted from the amount of hydrocarbons absorbed in the catalytic device to determine the amount of hydrocarbons stored in the catalytic device.

    Abstract: A method of estimating a mass flow rate of nitrogen oxides in exhaust gas includes sensing a mass flow rate of a flow of exhaust gas from the engine. A nitrogen oxides base concentration for when the engine is operating at a reference state is defined, and a nitrogen oxides ratio for a current operating state of the internal combustion engine is calculated. The mass flow rate of the flow of exhaust gas, the nitrogen oxides base concentration, and the nitrogen oxides ratio for the current operating state of the engine are multiplied together to define an estimated value of the current mass flow rate of nitrogen oxides in the flow of exhaust gas from the engine. The estimated value of the mass flow rate of nitrogen oxides may be compared to the output from a nitrogen oxides sensor to determine proper functionality of the nitrogen oxides sensor.
