摘要:
A catalyst (22) suitable for reduction of the NOx in an exhaust gas by ammonia in the presence of excess oxygen is arranged in the exhaust passage (18, 21) of an internal combustion engine. An aqueous urea solution is fed through a flow control valve (33) to the inside of the exhaust passage (21) upstream of the catalyst (22). When the temperature of the catalyst (22) is low, a large amount of the aqueous urea solution is fed to make the urea contained in the aqueous urea solution be stored in the catalyst (22). When the engine is accelerated and the temperature of the catalyst (22) rises, ammonia is released at a little at a time from the inside of the catalyst (22) and the NOx in the exhaust gas is reduced by the released ammonia.

A system and method for controlling an engine to regulate the oxygen storage level in an emission control device are provided. The system includes oxygen sensors disposed in an exhaust gas stream of the engine upstream and downstream of the emission control device. The oxygen sensors generate a feedgas and tailpipe air fuel signals. The system includes an electronic control unit (ECU) configured to obtain an adjusted feedgas air fuel ratio responsive to the feedgas and tailpipe air fuel signals to correct bias in the feedgas air fuel signal. The (ECU) is further configured to obtain an estimate of an oxygen storage level in the emission control device responsive to the adjusted feedgas air fuel ratio and the tailpipe air fuel signal. Finally, the (ECU) is configured to generate a control signal for the engine responsive to the adjusted feedgas air fuel ratio and the oxygen storage level estimate.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a compression ignition internal combustion engine capable of making compatible an increase in compression self-ignition operating area with an optimum output torque control in the operating area and also smoothly switching between a self-ignition combustion and a spark ignition combustion. The compression ignition internal combustion engine operates by switching between the spark ignition combustion using an ignition device and the compression ignition combustion which self-ignites a mixture by piston compression. Variable valve mechanisms vary at least one of the valve timings and valve lifts of an intake valve and an exhaust valve. Intake air is regulated to vary the amount of air intake into a combustion chamber on the upstream side of a combustion chamber inlet of the compression ignition internal combustion engine. The variable valve mechanisms and the intake air regulation are controlled during the compression ignition combustion so as to perform the compression ignition combustion.

To provide an exhaust gas purifying method for purifying the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine (1) by an exhaust gas purifying system (10) having an oxidation catalyst (3a), which comprises the steps of estimating the quantity of unburnt hydrocarbon accumulated in a support of the oxidation catalyst (3a), performing a hydrocarbon removal control when an estimated accumulation quantity (Vhc) of the unburnt hydrocarbon exceeds a predetermined judgment value (Vhc0) and raising an exhaust gas temperature (T) to activate the oxidation catalyst (3a) and oxidizing and removing the accumulated unburnt hydrocarbon. Thereby, it is possible to prevent a white fume from being produced after a low exhaust temperature state of an idling operation or the like continues for a long time.

A hydrogen enhanced engine system using high compression ratio is optimized to minimize NOx emissions, exhaust aftertreatment catalyst requirements, hydrogen requirements, engine efficiency and cost. In one mode of operation the engine is operated very lean (equivalence ratio nullnull0.4 to 0.7) at lower levels of power. Very lean operation reduces NOx to very low levels. A control system is used to increase equivalence ratio at increased torque or power requirements while avoiding the knock that would be produced by high compression ratio operation. The increased equivalence ratio reduces the amount of hydrogen required to extend the lean limit in order to avoid misfire and increases torque and power. The engine may be naturally aspirated, turbocharged, or supercharged.

A method and a regulating arrangement (10) for heating the cab (21) of a vehicle is described. In the event of a start in a cold environment, a heating program is carried out to heat the cab (21) more rapidly, if the diesel engine temperature, measured by a temperature sensor (15), is below a predetermined value. The supply of air to the diesel engine is reduced via the throttle valve (13) to set a currently predetermined intake pressure. If the driver demands a higher acceleration of the vehicle by actuating the accelerator pedal, throttling can be temporarily canceled. When the engine temperature has exceeded a second value, the heating program is terminated and the engine control (10) returns to normal operation. In order to assist the heating phase, in addition, the exhaust-gas recirculation valve (17) may be closed and electrical consumers switched on.

摘要:
A method for reducing required octane number and a spark ignition gasoline engine system with hydrogen-enhanced knock resistance. The method for reducing required octane number of gasoline needed to prevent knock includes the addition of hydrogen or hydrogen-rich gas containing carbon monoxide to gasoline. Octane number can be improved by 5 or more for a hydrogen energy fraction of 10%. The spark ignition gasoline engine system includes a spark ignition gasoline engine and a source of gasoline and hydrogen or hydrogen-rich gas. Apparatus is provided to supply the gasoline and the hydrogen or hydrogen-rich gas to the engine at a varying hydrogen or hydrogen-rich gas to gasoline ratio selected both to prevent knock and to ensure a desired level of combustion stability throughout a full range of engine operation. The engine system may be normally aspirated or boosted; the compression ratio may be high such as greater than 11 or below 11, and EGR may be added. The hydrogen or hydrogen-rich gas to gasoline ratio may be controlled as a function of boost pressure, torque, engine speed, or air/fuel mixture ratio.
摘要:
In a method for the operation of a four-stroke reciprocating piston internal combustion engine with alternating compression. ignition and spark ignition, fuel is injected directly, fresh charge is delivered and combustion exhaust gas is led off. At low and medium partial load a partially homogenized, lean basic mixture of air, fuel and retained exhaust gas is formed for the compression ignition, and at higher partial load and at full load a homogeneous, stoichiometric mixture is formed for the spark ignition. Further features include exhaust gas retention, a build-up of exhaust gas and activation injection into the retained exhaust gas. For a smooth transition between the two operating modes, in addition to the co-ordinated interaction of exhaust gas retention, build up of exhaust gas, restriction of the fresh charge, and of the ignition advance angle in spark ignition, together with the quantity and the timing of the fuel injection, use is also made of exhaust gas recirculation.

The present invention provides a tubular member construction capable of preventing the end portion of a flexible pipe formed of a band member from coming loose without costing. The flexible pipe is formed by winding a metallic tubular member in a spiral shape in an overlapped manner, and a plurality of wavy corrugations are formed on the peripheral wall surface of the flexible pipe continuously in the axial direction. In order to prevent a band member located in an end portion of the flexible pipe from coming loose, collapsed portions are formed on corrugations located in the end portions of the tubular member.
