摘要:
A regeneration control device which regenerates a filter (13) by increasing an exhaust gas temperature to burn exhaust gas particulates trapped in the filter, is disclosed. The filter (13) traps particulate matter in exhaust gas from an engine (1). The regeneration control device suppresses fuel cost-performance impairment due to filter regeneration. The regeneration control device has a load detection sensor (31) which detects an engine load and a microcomputer-based controller (22). The controller is programmed to perform engine control to adjust the exhaust gas temperature for regeneration of the filter (13), when a computed trapped amount is equal to or more than the first reference value (A) and less than the second reference value (B), and the detected load (Vsp) is equal to or more than a reference load (Vo); and perform engine control to adjust the exhaust gas temperature for regeneration of the filter (13) regardless of the detected load (Vsp), when the computed trapped amount is equal to or more than the second reference value (B).
摘要:
A filter differential pressure, which is the difference between the inlet pressure and the outlet pressure of a DPM filter (11), is determined, and switching is performed in accordance with the regeneration condition of the DPM filter (11) between a first trapped DPM amount calculation process for estimating the trapped DPM amount after complete regeneration, in which all of the DPM trapped in the DPM filter (11) is burned, and a second trapped DPM amount calculation process for estimating the trapped DPM amount when a part of the DPM trapped in the DPM filter (11) has been burned away. The trapped DPM amount in the DPM filter (11) is estimated on the basis of the filter differential pressure using one of the first and second trapped DPM amount calculation processes.
摘要:
A controller (70) controls regeneration of an exhaust gas filter (52) which traps particulate matter contained in exhaust gas to prevent the particulate matter from being discharged into the atmosphere. When regeneration of the exhaust gas filter (52) is underway and the engine (10) is decelerating, the controller (70) determines whether or not a catalyst (40) is active (S82) and whether the engine (10) is decelerating gently or rapidly (S83). When the engine (10) is decelerating gently, the controller (70) performs a post-injection following a main fuel injection (S824), and when the engine (10) is decelerating rapidly, the controller (70) performs the main fuel injection but stops the post-injection (S834). In so doing, the temperature of the filter does not rise excessively, and the filter can be prevented from melting.
