Abstract:
A system and method for initiation and control of passive regeneration (38, 38B) of a diesel particulate filter (34), and the integration of that regeneration strategy with an active regeneration strategy (36) and a strategy (40, 40A, 40B) for inhibiting passive regeneration. Passive regeneration can be initiated by driver actuation of an instrument panel switch while the vehicle is parked with the engine idling provided that certain conditions confirming that the vehicle is parked and the engine is at proper temperature are satisfied. Control of passive regeneration includes a timing function that sets minimum and maximum times.
Abstract:
An exhaust system is disclosed that includes a selective catalytic reduction volume that is configured to receive exhaust gas from an engine. The selective catalytic reduction volume uses NH3 as a reductant to convert NOx to nitrogen and water. An NOx trap is disposed to receive a downstream flow of exhaust gas from the selective catalytic reduction volume. The NOx trap includes a NOx adsorber for storing residual NOx in the downstream flow of exhaust gas. The NHS slip in the downstream flow of exhaust gas from the selective catalytic reduction volume reacts with the adsorbed NOx and is converted to nitrogen and water.

A system and method for initiation and control of passive regeneration (38) of a diesel particulate filter (34), and the integration of that regeneration strategy with an active regeneration strategy (36) and a strategy (40, 40A) for inhibiting passive regeneration. Passive regeneration can be initiated by driver actuation of an instrument panel device, such as a switch, while the vehicle is parked with the engine idling provided that certain conditions confirming that the vehicle is parked and the engine is at proper temperature are satisfied. Regeneration is inhibited by driver actuation of another switch for a maximum amount of time that may be shorter, or even prevented if DPF loading is too high.
Abstract:
An exhaust system for an engine is disclosed that comprises a selective catalytic reduction value and a cooling element. The selective catalytic reduction volume is configured to receive exhaust gas from the engine and uses NH 3 as a reductant in to convert NO x to nitrogen and water. The cooling element is configured at a downstream portion of the selective catalytic reduction volume for reducing the temperature of the downstream portion thereby storing NH 3 for converting NO x at the downstream portion to nitrogen and water.
