摘要:
An interface between a parallel backplane bus of a physical layer of a communication device and a higher layer of the device is provided in a manner compatible with a serial bus architecture such as IEEE 1394. The interface includes a parallel backplane physical layer controller having multiple receive data lines for receiving data from the backplane bus, and multiple transmit data lines for transmitting data to the backplane bus. A link layer controller is coupled to the parallel backplane physical layer controller, and communicates with the parallel backplane physical layer controller over a data bus. The parallel backplane physical layer controller can provide an effective data bandwidth which is greater than its operating clock rate. The parallel backplane physical layer controller may also be operative to support communications with the backplane bus using a plurality of different backplane bus widths, such as a single data bit bus width, a two data bit bus width, a four data bit bus width and an eight data bit bus width. The throughput data bandwidth of the interface can therefore be scaled by selecting one of the data bus widths supported by the parallel backplane physical layer controller.

Each link between components connected in a daisy-chain configuration is also connected to a special router that can be configured to bypass any one or more of the components. In this way, one or more failed components can be isolated from the daisy-chain configuration without affecting the ability of the other operational components to continue to operate properly. In one embodiment, the special router has a configuration of horizontal and vertical switches and delay nodes. The switches can be independently and selectively controlled to isolate one or more of the components from the daisy-chain configuration, while the delay nodes delay transmission of the signals to simulate the processing time of the bypassed components. In this way, interference with the processing of the remaining operational components can be minimized. In a mobile telecommunications application where each component is a cell-site modem (CSM) of a base station responsible for communications with a different assigned mobile unit, a single-point CSM failure can be detected and isolated in real time without adversely affecting the ability of the remaining operational CSMs to continue to operate, even without interrupting active support of current calls.

An exhaust gas treatment system for an internal combustion engine is provided and includes an exhaust gas conduit, a generator, an electrically heated catalyst (“EHC”) device, and a control module. The exhaust gas conduit is in fluid communication with, and is configured to receive an exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine.

An exhaust treatment system for an engine includes a selective catalyst reduction (SCR) treatment module that controls a valve and an air pump to deliver air to an SCR catalyst in response to the engine turning off. An SCR loading module controls the valve and the air pump to deliver air to an exhaust manifold and controls a dosing system to deliver a dosing agent upstream of the SCR catalyst when a temperature of the SCR catalyst is less than a temperature threshold and the SCR catalyst is not saturated with ammonia.
摘要:
The capacity of a platinum-containing diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) to simultaneously convert NO to NO2, CO to carbon dioxide, and remaining hydrocarbons to carbon dioxide and water in the exhaust system of a vehicle diesel engine may be evaluated and diagnosed using measured DOC exhaust inlet temperatures and outlet temperatures at a relatively high exhaust temperature and, soon thereafter, at a relatively low exhaust inlet temperature. Values of the platinum-containing DOC exotherms at the high and low DOC inlet temperatures are found to provide a basis for evaluation of both NO conversion and the HC and CO conversion capabilities of the DOC. The process may be repeated as the catalyzed DOC conversion efficiency changes with use. The practice may also be used to evaluate the performance of oxidation catalysts used in a like way in treating the exhaust from a lean-burn gasoline engine.

A method of mitigating battery cell failure is provided. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a coupling between a battery pack and an internal combustion engine exhaust system, the coupling comprising: a duct positioned between the battery pack and the internal combustion engine exhaust system, the duct including at least one one-way valve positioned to allow battery cell exhaust to pass from the battery cell to the internal combustion engine exhaust system; detecting a thermal event; activating a fan, an air pump, or both in response to the thermal event to force the battery cell exhaust through the coupling; and treating the battery cell exhaust in the internal combustion engine exhaust system.

An exhaust gas aftertreatment system for treating an engine-out exhaust gas feedstream of a spark-ignition direct-injection engine includes a multi-stage catalytic converter comprising a converter inlet, a converter outlet, and a substrate having a first end associated with the converter inlet and a second end associated with the converter outlet. The substrate further includes a multiplicity of flow passages between the first and second ends of the substrate, a first surface location corresponding to the first end of the substrate, and a second surface location corresponding to the second end of the substrate. The first and second washcoat stages include washcoats formulated to generate hydrogen and ammonia from the engine-out exhaust gas feedstream. An ammonia-selective catalytic reduction device is downstream of the first and second washcoat stages.
摘要:
An exhaust aftertreatment system that receives an exhaust flow from a lean-burn engine and a method for treating the exhaust flow are described. The exhaust aftertreatment system may include a three-way-catalyst, an oxidation catalyst, and a NH3—SCR catalyst. The three-way-catalyst passively generates NH3 from native NOX contained in the exhaust flow when an A/F mixture supplied to the engine is cycled from lean to rich. The generated NH3 is then stored in the NH3—SCR catalyst to facilitate NOX reduction when the A/F mixture supplied to the engine is cycled back to lean. The oxidation catalyst is located upstream of the NH3—SCR catalyst and operates to lower the NO to NO2 molar ratio of the NOX fed to the NH3—SCR catalyst. The oxidation catalyst comprises perovskite oxide particles.
