摘要:
A method and system for mitigating a urea deposit within an SCR system that includes determining a mass of an accumulated urea deposit present within the SCR catalyst and SCR piping, comparing the mass of the accumulated urea deposit with a deposit upper threshold limit, and initiating an SCR regeneration event when the mass of the accumulated urea deposit is greater than the deposit upper threshold limit. The method further includes determining an amount of NH3 passing through the SCR catalyst downstream of the urea deposit, comparing the amount of NH3 passing through the SCR catalyst with an NH3 regeneration threshold limit, and terminating the SCR regeneration event when the level of NH3 passing through the SCR catalyst is less than the SCR NH3 regeneration threshold.
摘要:
In a failure determination system that performs failure determination of an exhaust gas purification apparatus having a NOx selective catalytic reduction catalyst (NOx catalyst) that is disposed in an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine and uses ammonia as a reducing agent, the failure determination of the exhaust gas purification apparatus is performed by a failure determination unit, based on a detected value of a NOx sensor that detects NOx in exhaust gas. Then, based on an adsorption amount difference at assumed failure that is the difference between an ammonia equilibrium adsorption amount in the NOx catalyst in an equilibrium state of ammonia adsorption, assuming that the exhaust gas purification apparatus is in a predefined failure state, and an actual ammonia adsorption amount in the NOx catalyst, the failure determination itself by the failure determination unit is inhibited or the use of the NOx sensor in the failure determination is restricted. Accordingly, in the failure determination system of exhaust gas purification apparatus having the NOx selective catalytic reduction catalyst, erroneous determinations at the time of failure determination are suppressed, thereby further improving the accuracy of the failure determination.

A method for diagnosing a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst of an exhaust aftertreatment system of an internal combustion engine includes ensuring that a SCR catalyst NH3 storage level is substantially below the current maximal NH3 storage capacity of the SCR catalyst, initiating over-injection of reductant by the injector, stopping reductant injection upon registering, by the exhaust gas sensor, an increasing NOx+NH3 emission level and an NOx+NH3 emission level exceeding a predefined threshold value, and when the reduction injection is stopped recording an output signal of the exhaust gas sensor until an indication of a minimal or negligible SCR catalyst NH3 storage level is determined, and calculating a SCR catalyst NH3 storage capacity on the basis of the recorded output signal.
摘要:
A method for operating an exhaust emission control system of a motor vehicle internal combustion engine, in the exhaust gas line of which an oxidation-catalytically active exhaust emission control component is arranged upstream of a SCR-catalyst is provided. An ageing state of the oxidation-catalytically active exhaust emission control component is determined by correlating a hydrocarbon fraction present in the exhaust emission upstream of the oxidation-catalytically active exhaust emission component with a simultaneous nitrogen oxide conversion of the SCR-catalyst.
摘要:
Various systems and method for detecting exhaust NOx sensor degradation are disclosed. In one example, degradation of the NOx sensor is indicated responsive to reductant injection in an exhaust passage under engine off conditions. For example, degradation of the NOx sensor is indicated when an actual NOx sensor output differs from an expected NOx sensor output by more than a threshold amount.
摘要:
Various systems and methods are described for detecting ammonia slip. In one example method, an amount of exhaust gas recirculation is reduced when output from an exhaust gas sensor indicates an increase in nitrogen oxide above a threshold amount. When the sensor output increases above a second threshold while the exhaust gas recirculation is reduced, the sensor output is allocated to nitrogen oxide; and when the sensor output does not increase above a second threshold while the exhaust gas recirculation is reduced, the sensor output is allocated to ammonia.
摘要:
A method includes determining a current mid-bed NH3 amount by operating an NH3 sensor positioned at a mid-bed location for an engine aftertreatment system having two SCR catalyst beds. The method further includes operating a NOx sensor positioned at the mid-bed location, and interpreting a current mid-bed ammonia to NOx ratio (ANR) and a current mid-bed NOx in response to the mid-bed NH3 amount and the operating the NOx sensor. The method further includes correcting an output value of the NOx sensor for cross-sensitivity to NH3. The method includes determining a mid-bed ANR constraint, determining a feedforward mid-bed NOx target, and providing a reductant injector command in response to the current mid-bed ANR, the current mid-bed NOx, the ANR constraint, and the feedforward mid-bed NOx target.
摘要:
An exhaust system for use with a combustion engine is disclosed. The exhaust system may have an exhaust passage, a reduction catalyst disposed within the exhaust passage, and an injection device configured to inject reductant into the exhaust passage. The exhaust system may also have a sensor configured to generate a signal indicative of a concentration of an exhaust constituent and the reductant, and a controller in communication with the sensor and the injection device. The controller may be configured to make a comparison of a value indicative of a rate of change of the signal for a period of time with a threshold amount, and make a determination of whether the sensor is sensing a concentration of the exhaust constituent or the reductant based on the comparison. The controller may also be configured to adjust operation of the injection device based on the determination.
摘要:
An exhaust gas purifying apparatus for an internal combustion engine is provided. The apparatus includes a first catalyst and a second catalyst. The first catalyst is provided in an exhaust passage of the engine, and can remove NOx in exhaust gases from the engine when an air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture burning in the engine is in the vicinity of the stoichiometric ratio. The second catalyst is provided downstream of the first catalyst, an can remove NOx in the exhaust gases using a reducing agent. An execution condition of a lean operation in which the air-fuel ratio is set to a lean air-fuel ratio which is leaner than the stoichiometric ratio, is determined. When switching the air-fuel ratio from an air-fuel ratio in the vicinity of the stoichiometric ratio to the lean air-fuel ratio, the air-fuel ratio is controlled to a rich air-fuel ratio which is richer than the stoichiometric ratio, during a lean transition period from the time the execution condition is satisfied. The air-fuel ratio is controlled to the lean air-fuel ratio after the lean transition period has elapsed.
摘要:
An exhaust purification apparatus for internal combustion engine having a selective reduction catalyst that while maintaining a high NOx reduction ratio, inhibits any ammonia discharge downstream of the selective reduction catalyst. In the exhaust purification apparatus (2), a urea selective reduction catalyst (23) comprises a first selective reduction catalyst (231) and, provided downstream of the first selective reduction catalyst (231) in an exhaust passageway (11), a second selective reduction catalyst (232). Further, the exhaust purification apparatus (2) includes a urea injection unit (25) for feeding of a reducing agent upstream of the urea selective reduction catalyst (23) in the exhaust passageway (11) and an ammonia sensor (26) for detection of the ammonia concentration at a site between the first selective reduction catalyst (231) and the second selective reduction catalyst (232) in the exhaust passageway (11). The rate of urea injection, GUREA, by the urea injection unit (25) is determined so that the value of ammonia concentration, NH3CONS, detected by the ammonia sensor (26) is greater than “0.”
