摘要:
Disclosed are ceramic honeycomb articles which possess a unique microstructure characterized by porosity between 40% and 70%, and the presence of coarse pores exhibiting a depth equivalent to the thickness of the cell wall and a dimensional width, in the plane of the cell wall, exhibiting a diameter that is at least as large as the thickness of the cell wall. The articles exhibits reduced filtration efficiency coupled with low pressure drop across the filter, and a reduced regeneration need. Such ceramic articles are particularly well suited for filtration applications, such as off-road and retro-fit diesel exhaust filters or DPFs. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing the ceramic article wherein the pore former is capable of forming coarse pores.

A particulate filter may comprise an inlet end, an outlet end, and a plurality of channels disposed and configured to flow fluid from the inlet end to the outlet end, wherein the channels are defined by porous walls configured to trap particulate matter. The porous walls may have a total porosity greater than about 45%, a median pore size ranging from about 13 micrometers to about 20 micrometers, and a pore size distribution such that pores less than 10 micrometers contribute less than about 10% porosity.

Systems and methods for controlling temperature and total hydrocarbon slip in an exhaust system are provided. Control systems can comprise an oxidation catalyst, a particulate filter, a fuel injector, and a processor for controlling a fuel injection based on an oxidation catalyst model. Example system includes a virtual sensor comprising a controller for calculating and providing the total hydrocarbon slip to subsystems for after-treatment management based on modeling the oxidation catalyst. Example methods for controlling the temperature and the total hydrocarbon slip in an exhaust system include the steps of providing an oxidation catalyst model, monitoring a condition of the exhaust system, calculating a hydrocarbon fuel injection flow rate and controlling a fuel injection. The example methods further include the steps of determining an error in the oxidation catalyst model based on the monitored condition and changing the oxidation catalyst model to reduce the error.

Mass based methods and systems for estimating soot load in a filter of an after-treatment system for exhaust stream are provided. The after-treatment system can comprise a sensor, a filter, and a processor configured to estimate soot load in the filter based on a mass based multi-layer model. An example system includes a virtual sensor comprising an estimator for providing information corresponding to a filter outlet NO2 concentration. An example method includes the steps of providing the mass based multi-layer model, passing the exhaust stream through the filter, and using the sensor to monitor a condition of the exhaust stream. The example method further includes the steps of calculating a total regeneration rate based on the multi-layer model by solving a second-order ordinary differential equation with a plurality of parameters using an analytical approach, and estimating the soot load based on the calculated total regeneration rate.

A method of controlling the operation of a particulate filter in an exhaust gas after-treatment system may comprise calculating a ratio of particulate loading rate to filter regeneration rate using a mass-based soot load estimation scheme and comparing the ratio of particulate loading rate to filter regeneration rate to a predetermined threshold value. The method may further comprise controlling operating conditions of the particulate filter to maintain the ratio of particulate loading rate to filter regeneration rate at a value above the predetermined threshold value.

A thin-walled porous ceramic wall-flow filter is disclosed. The filter produces a relatively lower pressure drop coupled with relatively high initial filtration efficiency (FE0), and may enable packaging the filter in a smaller volume. The filter includes a plurality of porous ceramic walls forming cell channels. At least some of the cells are plugged forcing some exhaust gases through the walls, thereby filtering out entrained particulates. The walls have a wall thickness (Twall) wherein 102 μm≦Twall
