    摘要: A mixing assembly for an exhaust system can include an outer body, a front plate, a back plate, a middle member, and an inner member. The outer body defines an interior volume and has a center axis. The front plate defines an upstream portion of the interior volume and the back plate defines a downstream portion of the interior volume. The middle member is positioned transverse to the center axis and defines a volume. The inner member is positioned coaxially with the middle member inside the middle member. The front plate includes inlets configured to direct exhaust to (i) a first flow path into an interior of the inner member, (ii) a second flow path into the volume of the middle member between a sidewall of the middle member and a sidewall of the inner member, and (iii) a third flow path into the interior volume of the outer body.

    摘要: An exemplary embodiment includes a blending chamber having a urea inlet, a blending chamber gas inlet, and a blending chamber outlet. A urea source provides a pressurized urea solution to the urea inlet at a urea injection pressure, and a pressurized gas source transmits pressurized gas to the blending chamber gas inlet via a passageway. The passageway is configured to decrease pressure of the pressurized gas transmitted along its length from a first pressure of gas received from the pressurized gas source to a second pressure of gas provided to the blending chamber gas inlet. The first pressure of gas received from the pressurized gas source is greater than the urea injection pressure and the second pressure of gas provided to the blending chamber gas inlet is less than the urea injection pressure.

    摘要: A decomposition reactor for an exhaust system includes an exterior component defining an internal volume and having an inlet and an outlet with the inlet and outlet are formed on a same side of the exterior component. A flow divider is positioned within the internal volume and defines a thermal management chamber and a main flow chamber. A first flow path of exhaust flows from the inlet into the main flow chamber to mix with dosed, and a second flow path of exhaust flows from the inlet into the thermal management chamber to control a temperature of a portion of the flow divider. In some implementations, one or more swirling diverters can be coupled to the flow divider and positioned proximate the outlet of the exterior component to impart a vortical motion to a combined reductant and exhaust gas flow exiting out the outlet.

    摘要: A system for controlling reductant spray momentum for a target spray distribution includes an exhaust system having an exhaust conduit with exhaust flowing therethrough, a reductant injection system for injecting reductant into the exhaust flowing through the exhaust system based on one or more injection parameters, a reductant supply system for supplying reductant to the reductant injection system based on one or more supply parameters, and a controller. The controller is configured to access current vehicle, engine, exhaust, or reductant condition parameters, determine one or more control parameters based on a control model and the accessed current vehicle, engine, exhaust, or reductant condition parameters, and modify a value of the one or more injection parameters or the one or more supply parameters to control the reductant spray.

    摘要: An ammonia generating apparatus comprises a housing comprising a first end wall on which a reductant injector configured to insert a reductant into the housing is mountable. A heating coil assembly is disposed within the housing. A first end of the heating coil assembly is located proximate to a location of the first end wall where a reductant injector tip of the reductant injector is located when the reductant injector is mounted on the first end wall. The heating coil assembly is configured to generate heat sufficient to thermolyze the reductant to generate ammonia and reaction byproducts, in response to an electric current being passed therethrough. A hydrolysis catalyst can be disposed downstream of the heating coil assembly for catalyzing hydrolysis of the reaction byproducts into ammonia.
