Abstract:
An apparatus for fresh airflow determination includes an operating conditions module that interprets a MAF value, a current operating condition and a charge flow value. The apparatus further includes a volume estimation module that determines an apparent plumbing volume of an air intake assembly in response to the MAF value, the current operating condition and the charge flow value. The apparatus further includes a volume reporting module that provides the apparent plumbing volume.

Abstract:
A method includes providing: a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst disposed in an exhaust gas stream of an internal combustion engine, a reagent injector operationally coupled to the exhaust gas stream at a position upstream of the SCR catalyst, and a NOx sensor coupled to the exhaust gas stream at a position downstream of at least a first portion of the SCR catalyst. The method includes operating an extremum seeking controller to determine a first reagent injection amount corresponding to a predetermined slope of δNOx/δANR, the δNOx/δANR determined according to the NOx sensor, providing a reagent injection command in response to the first reagent injection amount, and injecting an amount of the reagent in response to the reagent injection command.
