摘要:
According to one representative embodiment, an apparatus for determining the degradation of a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst of an engine exhaust aftertreatment system includes a system properties module configured to store at least one system dynamics property value of the exhaust system at a first time and receive the at least one system dynamics property value of the exhaust aftertreatment system at a second time subsequent to the first time. The apparatus also includes a system dynamics module configured to determine a storage capacity of the SCR catalyst based on a comparison between the at least one system dynamic property value at the first time and the at least one system dynamic property value at the second time. Additionally, the apparatus includes an SCR catalyst degradation factor module configured to determine an SCR catalyst degradation factor based at least partially on the storage capacity of the SCR catalyst.

Mass spectrometry system for analyzing components of a gas. In accordance with one embodiment, the system includes a mass spectrometer adapted to analyze components of the gas, and an inlet capillary fluidically connected to the mass spectrometer to convey a sample of the gas to the mass spectrometer. The inlet capillary includes an inner bore with a bore wall having a catalytic coating thereon for reacting with at least one component of the sampled gas to convert the at least one component to another gas species as the sampled gas is conveyed through the inlet capillary. The mass spectrometer is adapted to analyze the converted gas species and derive information, such as quantity, of the component of sample gas that has been converted. A method of analyzing a gas is also provided.

A method includes determining whether selective catalytic reduction (SCR) test conditions are present, and in response to the SCR test conditions being present, operating an SCR aftertreatment system at a number of reduced ammonia to NOx ratio (ANR) operating points. The method further includes determining a deNOx efficiency value corresponding to each of the ANR operating points. The method further includes determining a reductant correction value in response to the deNOx efficiency values corresponding to each of the ANR operating points, and providing a reductant injection command in response to the reductant correction value.

A method includes providing a system having a fluid flow, a fuel injector and an oxygen sensor disposed in the fluid flow, where the oxygen sensor is downstream of the fuel injector. The method includes determining a first air fuel ratio, changing an injection rate of the fuel injector and determining a second air fuel ratio, and determining a fault value for the fuel injector from the first air fuel ratio and the second air fuel ratio. The method further includes determining the fault value for the fuel injector by determining a difference between the first air fuel ratio and the second air fuel ratio, and by determining that the fault value is positive in response to the difference being lower than a passing threshold value. The method includes changing injection rates of the fuel injector for specified periods of time short enough to significant disruption of system temperatures.

摘要:
Inhibiting uncontrolled regeneration of a particulate filter fluidly coupled to an exhaust manifold of an internal combustion engine may comprise reducing an oxygen concentration of exhaust gas supplied to the particulate filter if active regeneration of the particulate filter is in progress and rotational speed of the engine speed thereafter drops to an idle speed range from an elevated rotational speed that is greater than the idle speed range. Reducing the oxygen concentration of the exhaust gas supplied to the particulate filter may include any one or combination of reducing the oxygen concentration of intake air supplied to the intake manifold, reducing the air portion of the air-to-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture supplied to the engine and removing oxygen from the exhaust gas supplied to the particulate filter.
