An exhaust valve comprises a substantially tubular body extending along an extension axis, a substantially flat flap, and a shaft integral with the flap and rotatable about a rotation axis between a closed orientation and an open orientation. The exhaust valve further includes a first seat suitable for accommodating a first edge of the flap facing the first seat, and a second seat suitable for receiving a second opposing edge of the flap. In each plane passing through the extension axis, a distal end of a profile of a seat is curved in the direction of the opposing edge until the distal end comes into contact with the opposing edge. A distal end of a profile of an edge is curved in the direction of the opposing seat until the distal end comes into contact with the seat.

A mixer arrangement for an exhaust gas system, having an inlet opening through which an exhaust gas mass flow (A) can be guided, and a mixer for swirling the exhaust gas, which has at least one inflow opening that is fluidically connected to the inlet opening, wherein at least one first portion (A1) of the exhaust gas mass flow (A) can be guided through the mixer via the at least one inflow opening, an injection device by means of which an additive can be injected, and a bypass having at least one throughflow opening which is fluidically connected to the inlet opening and through which a second portion (A2) of the exhaust gas mass flow (A) can be guided past the mixer, there being provided at least one regulating body by means of which a flow cross-section Q in the mixer arrangement can be varied such that a ratio V with (formula I) can be varied.

An exhaust gas heat exchanger may include a tube bundle and a housing through which a coolant is flowable. The tube bundle may include a plurality of exhaust gas-conducting tubes held in a first tube base and a second tube base. The housing may enclose the tube bundle and may have face ends delimited by the first tube base and the second tube base. The housing may include a coolant inlet arranged in a region of the second tube base and a coolant outlet arranged in a region of the first tube base such that the coolant flows in counter flow relative to the exhaust gas. A plurality of coolant bypass passages may be arranged between the tube bundle and the housing. At least a subset of the plurality of coolant bypass passages may be at least partly blocked by an inlay structured and arranged to steer a coolant flow.

A heat exchanger comprises a plurality of heat exchange segments juxtaposed in a housing, and a plug member connected fluid-tightly to the housing, and supporting the heat exchange segments to provide a coolant or cooling medium passage in each gap between the heat exchange segments adjacent to each other. Each heat exchange segment comprises a case having an opening only on a surface of the case, at least outside of the opening being plugged fluid-tightly by the plug member, and a guide member, e.g., fin accommodated in the case, and provided with a plurality of passages allowing only gas flow in a predetermined direction, and gas intake passages and gas exhaust passages at the upstream and downstream thereof, wherein an opening of the case is provided with a gas inlet port communicated with the gas intake passage, and a gas outlet port communicated with the gas exhaust passages.

Methods and systems are provided for an exhaust bypass valve and a heat exchanger upstream of a three-way valve. In one example, a method may include flowing exhaust gas through one or more of an exhaust passage, bypass passage, recirculating passage, and EGR passage based on positions of a three-way valve and a bypass valve.

An ECM executes a catalyst early activation control at the cold start of an engine such that the activation of a catalyzer is promoted by opening a WGV. Further, the ECM performs a diagnosis process of diagnosing whether or not the WGV is stuck closed, based on the amplitude of the output fluctuation in an air-fuel-ratio sensor during execution of the catalyst early activation control.

A mixer assembly for a vehicle exhaust system includes a mixer shell defining an internal cavity and an inlet reactor positioned within the internal cavity. The inlet reactor has a fluid inlet, a first exhaust gas inlet, and a second exhaust gas inlet. An inlet baffle is mounted to an upstream end of the mixer shell. The inlet baffle includes a first opening that directs exhaust gas into the first exhaust gas inlet, a scoop that directs exhaust gas into the second exhaust gas inlet, and a plurality of bypass openings that direct exhaust gas to bypass entry into the inlet reactor.

An aftertreatment system connected downstream an internal combustion engine arrangement for receiving exhaust gases conveyed from the internal combustion engine arrangement during operation thereof, wherein the aftertreatment system comprises first and second catalytic devices in series, wherein a gap is there between.

An injection structure using integrated exhaust heat recovery system (EHRS) condensate, the structure including an integrated heat exchange part connected to an engine of a vehicle and branched from an exhaust outlet of an exhaust manifold to integrate exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and EHRS, a condensate circuit part extended from a rear end of the integrated heat exchange part to the engine of the vehicle and configured to move exhaust gas condensate, a three-phase valve configured to open and close so that a low-temperature coolant is selectively introduced into the integrated heat exchange part according to operating conditions, an EGR valve configured to open and close so that EGR gas with filtered condensate flows into the engine of the vehicle, a bypass valve fluidly connected to an exhaust muffler, and a controller configured to control opening and closing of the three-phase valve, the EGR valve, and the bypass valve according to the operating conditions.

An aftertreatment system (100) connected downstream an internal combustion engine arrangement (102) for receiving combustion gas exhausted from the internal combustion engine arrangement (102) during operation thereof, the aftertreatment system (100) comprising a primary aftertreatment system (104) comprising a first catalytic reduction arrangement (106); a secondary reduction system (108) comprising a second catalytic reduction arrangement (110).
