摘要:
A method for initiating a regeneration mode in selective catalytic reduction device utilizing hydrocarbons as a reductant includes monitoring a temperature within the aftertreatment system, monitoring a fuel dosing rate to the selective catalytic reduction device, monitoring an initial conversion efficiency, selecting a determined equation to estimate changes in a conversion efficiency of the selective catalytic reduction device based upon the monitored temperature and the monitored fuel dosing rate, estimating changes in the conversion efficiency based upon the determined equation and the initial conversion efficiency, and initiating a regeneration mode for the selective catalytic reduction device based upon the estimated changes in conversion efficiency.
摘要:
A method for monitoring a hydrocarbon-selective catalytic reactor device of an exhaust aftertreatment system of an internal combustion engine operating lean of stoichiometry includes injecting a reductant into an exhaust gas feedstream upstream of the hydrocarbon-selective catalytic reactor device at a predetermined mass flowrate of the reductant, and determining a space velocity associated with a predetermined forward portion of the hydrocarbon-selective catalytic reactor device. When the space velocity exceeds a predetermined threshold space velocity, a temperature differential across the predetermined forward portion of the hydrocarbon-selective catalytic reactor device is determined, and a threshold temperature as a function of the space velocity and the mass flowrate of the reductant is determined. If the temperature differential across the predetermined forward portion of the hydrocarbon-selective catalytic reactor device is below the threshold temperature, operation of the engine is controlled to regenerate the hydrocarbon-selective catalytic reactor device.

摘要:
A method to control a clutch in a transmission includes monitoring a frequency response of the clutch including monitoring a response repeating one time per revolution of the clutch a response repeating more than one time per revolution of the clutch. A ratio of the response repeating more than one time per revolution of the clutch to the response repeating one time per revolution of the clutch is determined and compared to a first threshold ratio. A likely shudder condition is indicated based upon the comparing.
摘要:
A monitoring system for an exhaust aftertreatment system is provided, comprising an injecting device operable to inject reductant into an exhaust gas feedstream upstream of a selective catalyst reduction device. The monitoring system comprises a control module, adapted to selectively intrusively control a rate of dosing from the injecting device and, monitor inputs from a sensing device. The sensing device can comprise an ammonia sensor, and, alternatively, a NOx sensor. The control module is adapted to discontinue the rate of dosing, and substantially increase and decrease the rate of dosing for a predetermined amount of time, and to identify a fault in the sensing device and the selective catalyst reduction device.
摘要:
A method of monitoring operation of an exhaust treatment system of a diesel engine includes injecting a dosing agent into an exhaust and monitoring the operating conditions of an engine during normal driving conditions. A control module monitors inlet and outlet temperatures of a catalyst and compares the inlet temperature to the outlet temperature. The control module further evaluates the exhaust treatment system based on the inlet temperature, the outlet temperature and a predetermined temperature threshold.
