A method for regenerating a particulate filter may comprise calculating a soot layer state correction factor based on a rate of regeneration and a rate of particulate loading in the particulate filter and calculating an estimated soot load in the particulate filter based on a pressure drop of an exhaust gas flowing through the particulate filter and the calculated soot layer state correction factor. The method for regenerating the particulate filter may further comprise causing regeneration of the particulate filter when the estimated soot load is greater than or equal to a threshold value.

摘要:
A method of making an optical fiber preform includes depositing silica glass on the inside of a tube substrate via a plasma chemical vapor deposition (PCVD) operation. The parameters of the PCVD operation are controlled such that the silica glass deposited on the interior of the tube substrate contains a non-periodic array of voids in a cladding region of the optical fiber preform. The optical fiber preform may be used to produce an optical fiber having a core and a void containing cladding. The core of the optical fiber has a first index of refraction and the cladding has a second index of refraction less than that of the core.

摘要:
Microstructured optical fiber and method of making. Glass soot is deposited and then consolidated under conditions which are effective to trap a portion of the consolidation gases in the glass to thereby produce a non-periodic array of voids which may then be used to form a void containing cladding region in an optical fiber. Preferred void producing consolidation gases include nitrogen, argon, CO2, oxygen, chlorine, CF4, CO, SO2 and mixtures thereof.
