Abstract:
In the abnormality diagnosis device which carries out an abnormality diagnosis of the reducing agent adding device by obtaining a diagnostic parameter which is a parameter correlated with an amount of pressure drop in a reducing agent passage in the case where, from a state in which an addition valve has been closed and in which a voltage to be applied to a pump is controlled to a diagnostic voltage so that the pressure in the reducing agent passage becomes a predetermined pressure, the addition valve is made to open in a state where the voltage to be applied to the pump is maintained at the diagnostic voltage, and by making a comparison between the diagnostic parameter and a predetermined threshold value, the abnormality diagnosis is carried out by using the diagnostic parameter or the predetermined threshold value which is corrected based on the pump discharge capacity of the pump.
Abstract:
An additive amount of a reducing agent to a selective reduction-type NOx catalyst is optimized. An ammonia adsorption amount of the selective reduction-type NOx catalyst is estimated based on one or a plurality of prescribed parameters related to the ammonia adsorption amount and a specific ammonia adsorption amount that is an estimated value of the ammonia adsorption amount specified by at least one of a maximum value and a minimum value of an estimated value of the ammonia adsorption amount is estimated based on an error in the prescribed parameter, and when the specific ammonia adsorption amount is outside a target range of the ammonia adsorption amount, addition of an ammonia precursor or ammonia using an adding valve is controlled such that the specific ammonia adsorption amount returns to the target range.
Abstract:
An abnormality diagnosis system for an exhaust gas purification device performs abnormality diagnosis of an SCR catalyst on the basis of the concentration of ammonia in exhaust gas in the region downstream of the SCR catalyst. The system includes a controller configured to estimate the amount of ammonia adsorbed in the SCR catalyst in an abnormal condition (ammonia adsorption amount in abnormal condition) and the amount of ammonia adsorbed in the SCR catalyst in a normal condition (ammonia adsorption amount in normal condition). When performing abnormality diagnosis of the SCR catalyst, the controller supplies reducing agent so as to make the ammonia adsorption amount in abnormal condition larger than a first predetermined adsorption amount equal to or larger than a slip start adsorption amount in abnormal condition and to make the ammonia adsorption amount in normal condition smaller than a second predetermined adsorption amount equal to or smaller than a slip start adsorption amount in normal condition.

An exhaust gas control apparatus for the internal combustion engine includes a catalyst disposed in an exhaust passage, an upstream air-fuel ratio sensor configured to detect an air-fuel ratio of in-flow exhaust gas that flows into the catalyst, a downstream air-fuel ratio sensor configured to detect an air-fuel ratio of out-flow exhaust gas that flows out of the catalyst, and an electronic control unit configured to control the air-fuel ratio of the in-flow exhaust gas.

The electronic control unit is configured to, when the predetermined condition is not satisfied, control the air-fuel ratio of the in-flow exhaust gas based on the output from the upstream air-fuel ratio sensor.
Abstract:
When an abnormality diagnosis of an SCR catalyst is carried out, diagnostic supply control is carried out in such a manner that the first estimated adsorption amount, which is an amount of adsorption of ammonia in the SCR catalyst at the time when the SCR catalyst is assumed to be in a predetermined abnormal state, becomes equal to or more than a first predetermined adsorption amount, and the second estimated adsorption amount, which is an amount of adsorption of ammonia in the SCR catalyst at the time when the SCR catalyst is assumed to be in a predetermined normal state, becomes smaller than a second predetermined adsorption amount. Then, supply decreasing control to decrease an amount of adsorption of ammonia in the SCR catalyst is carried out, after the end of the execution of the diagnostic supply control.
Abstract:
An object of the disclosure is to adjust the ammonia adsorption amount in an SCR catalyst supported on an SCR filter as close as possible to a target adsorption amount in an exhaust gas purification system including the SCR filter. In a system according to the disclosure, the quantity of ammonia supplied by an ammonia supplier is made smaller when a differential pressure change rate at the time when ammonia is supplied by the ammonia supplier is lower than a predetermined threshold than when the differential pressure change rate at the time when ammonia is supplied by the ammonia supplier is equal to or higher than the predetermined threshold. Moreover, when the differential pressure change rate is lower than the predetermined threshold, the change in the quantity of ammonia supplied by the ammonia supplier relative to the change in the filter PM deposition amount is kept equal to zero.
