    Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling a valve for directing an exhaust gas stream through an exhaust duct having a first after treatment device and a second after treatment device in an exhaust system. The method includes receiving sensor signals from a sensor coupled to the second after treatment device. The method includes processing the sensor signals to determine a temperature of the second after treatment device, and determining a position for the valve based on whether the temperature exceeds a pre-defined threshold for the temperature of the second after treatment device. The method includes outputting a control signal to move the valve to a first position in which the exhaust gas stream flows through a first portion of the first after treatment device or a second position in which the exhaust gas stream flows through a second portion of the first after treatment device based on the temperature.

    Abstract: Systems and associated methods of treating diesel exhaust in a vehicle are disclosed. An example method includes providing an exhaust aftertreatment device in an exhaust tailpipe, and a first nitrogen oxide (NOx) sensor upstream of the exhaust aftertreatment device, with the exhaust aftertreatment device configured to reduce NOx present in an exhaust flow through the exhaust aftertreatment device with a treatment fluid applied to the exhaust flow. This example method may also include measuring a concentration of NOx in the exhaust flow with the first sensor, determining an error in the measurement of the NOx concentration, and applying a learning corrective adjustment in a subsequent measurement of the NOx concentration in the exhaust flow in response to that determination. A first magnitude of the learning corrective adjustment may be based at least in part upon a second magnitude of the error in the measurement.

    Abstract: An automotive vehicle includes an internal combustion engine that combusts an air/fuel mixture thereby generating exhaust gas containing particulate matter, and an exhaust after-treatment component that collects the particulate matter. A regeneration system burns off the collected particulate matter thereby regenerating the exhaust after-treatment component. A controller obtains a model of the combustion that is based on a kinetic controlled combustion phase and a mixing controlled combustion phase, and determines a point on the model with respect to current engine conditions that indicates an amount of the particulate matter in the exhaust gas.

    Abstract: A method for monitoring particulate filter disposed in an exhaust aftertreatment system of an internal combustion engine includes determining, via a differential pressure sensor, a pressure differential across the particulate filter, and determining an initial parameter associated with soot loading on the particulate filter based upon the pressure differential. A first adjustment to the soot loading is determined based upon a passive regeneration effect, a second adjustment to the soot loading is determined based upon an off-engine temperature effect, and a third adjustment to the soot loading is determined based upon occurrence of an interrupted regeneration event. A final parameter associated with soot loading on the particulate filter is determined based upon the initial parameter and the first, second and third adjustments.

    Abstract: A method of estimating hydrocarbon storage in a catalytic device of an exhaust gas treatment system includes calculating an amount of hydrocarbons absorbed in the catalytic device per unit volume of exhaust gas over a period of time, calculating an amount of hydrocarbons desorbed in the catalytic device per unit volume of exhaust gas over the period of time, and calculating an amount of hydrocarbons oxidized in the catalytic device per unit volume of exhaust gas over the period of time. The amount of hydrocarbons oxidized in the catalytic device and the amount of hydrocarbons desorbed in the catalytic device are subtracted from the amount of hydrocarbons absorbed in the catalytic device to determine the amount of hydrocarbons stored in the catalytic device.
