Abstract:
An exhaust system includes a particulate filter, a variable valve, and a controller communicatively connected to the variable valve. The controller is operative to determine a backpressure caused by the particulate filter in the exhaust system, and control a position of the variable valve as a function of the backpressure caused by the particulate filter.
