Exhaust conduit with a flow conditioning portion
An exhaust conduit having a wall with an inner surface that at least partially defines a flow channel, a first fin positioned within the flow channel and attached to the inner surface, a second fin positioned within the flow channel and attached to the inner surface such that the first fin is spaced apart from the second fin. A support strip is attached to the inner surface, attached to the first fin at a first location spaced apart from the inner surface, and attached to the second fin at a second location spaced apart from the inner surface.
Vehicle exhaust system
A vehicle exhaust system includes an inner pipe in which exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine flows, and an outer pipe surrounding a part of the inner pipe. One end of the outer pipe is formed to have a diameter smaller than that of other portions of the outer pipe, and fixed to an outer surface of the inner pipe. A region of the outer pipe from the other end before the one end is a free region unattached to the outer surface of the inner pipe.
EXHAUST GAS COOLING DEVICE
The disclosure relates to an exhaust gas cooling device for an internal combustion engine, having a housing which can be connected to an exhaust gas line of the internal combustion engine and has an axis of symmetry and having a Venturi assembly coupled to the housing for introducing exhaust gas and ambient air and having an outlet line emitting an exhaust gas-ambient air mixture into the environment, wherein: the Venturi assembly has a Venturi channel which can be coupled fluidically to the exhaust gas line and an inlet opening delimited by the Venturi channel and the exhaust gas line for ambient air; the Venturi channel is used to conduct an exhaust gas-ambient air mixture and opens, with the inlet opening, into a mixing chamber; the Venturi channel has an outlet opening and the outlet opening has an inflow opening, wherein the outlet opening and the inflow opening are spaced apart from one another; the Venturi channel and the outlet line, with the inflow opening, open into the housing.
Combined heat exchanger and exhaust silencer
The present invention relates to a combined heat exchanger and exhaust silencer for a vehicle, comprising a bypass valve configured to: in a first state, allow a flow path for exhaust gas to be open from an inlet to an outlet via an at least partly perforated bypass pipe, and in a second state, close said flow path, whereby at least a main portion of said exhaust gas is forced through a second flow channel comprising a heat exchanger pipe. The second flow channel is formed by an annular space between an at least partly perforated second pipe and an at least partly perforated third pipe. A sound absorbing material surrounds the bypass pipe and the third pipe, and is further arranged inside the second pipe.
Internal straight core
Two end caps with metal straight tubing inserted into a muffler canister, Then affixed to a motorcycle header pipes that's connected to a combustion engine, Particularly a motorcycle engine, Where exhaust gas discharges through both creating more engine performance and sound.
Injector deposit dissolution system and method
An SCR injection system for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. Under certain conditions, reductant fluid supplied by the system may form deposits in a reductant injector. In order to dissolve the deposits, a reductant supply line includes at least a portion with a downward slope that is disposed above a reductant inlet of the reductant injector. This allows reductant fluid in the sloped portion to flow to the reductant inlet due to gravity. Advantageously, a bent portion is provided between the reductant inlet and the sloped portion in order to trap reductant fluid that may flow back towards the reductant injector when the system is purged.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LOW CO EMISSION ENGINE
In one aspect, a system is provided and includes an engine including an exhaust valve, an exhaust manifold downstream of the exhaust valve and a muffler downstream of the exhaust manifold. The system also includes a catalyst positioned downstream of the exhaust valve.
Exhaust device for internal combustion engine
An exhaust device for an internal combustion engine includes an exhaust manifold including branch pipe portions respectively connected to cylinders of the internal combustion engine in which exhaust strokes are executed at different timings, and a collecting pipe portion to which the branch pipe portions are collected and connected at a downstream side of the branch pipe portions, a catalyst provided at a downstream side of the collecting pipe portion in the exhaust manifold, an exhaust pipe provided at a downstream side of the catalyst, a sensor detecting a state of exhaust gas and provided in the exhaust pipe, and a connecting wall portion connecting the catalyst and the exhaust pipe and extending in a different direction with respect to a first central axis of the catalyst along a flow direction of the exhaust gas.
MUFFLER UNIT
A muffler unit includes: an inner cylinder connected with a first exhaust pipe; a first outlet pipe that is connected with a downstream end of the inner cylinder and through which exhaust gas is discharged; an outer cylinder that houses thereinside the inner cylinder and defines, between the outer cylinder and an outer surface of the inner cylinder, an expansion chamber communicating with the second exhaust pipe; and a second outlet pipe that houses thereinside the first outlet pipe and defines, between the second outlet pipe and an outer surface of the first outlet pipe, a path connected with the expansion chamber to thereby be used for discharging the exhaust gas. Accordingly, there is provided the muffler unit having a size reduced compared with a configuration including two mufflers disposed in parallel with each other.
MULTI-CYLINDER ENGINE
A multi-cylinder engine having an engine body with a cylinder head is provided. The engine includes first and second cylinder groups, each having a plurality of independent exhaust passage parts provided to the cylinder head and connected to cylinders of the first and second cylinder groups, respectively, and first and second collective exhaust passage parts collecting the first and second pluralities of independent exhaust passage parts at a location downstream in an exhaust gas flow direction, and having an opening formed in the side surface part of the cylinder head, first and second exhaust-pipe parts each connected to the openings of the first and second collective exhaust passage parts, respectively, an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) passage connected at one end to the first exhaust passage group and connected at the other end to an intake passage, and an exhaust gas temperature sensor provided to the first exhaust-pipe part.
