Location-based control of exhaust system for marine engines
11577811 · 2023-02-14 · ·

A method of controlling an adjustable exhaust system for a marine engine includes receiving a vessel location of a marine vessel having an adjustable exhaust system and identifying a noise constraint based on the vessel location. A current exhaust mode of the adjustable exhaust system is identified. A determination is then made regarding whether the exhaust system is exceeding the noise constraint based on the current exhaust mode. If the noise constraint is exceeded, an instruction is generated to adjust the adjustable exhaust system to comply with the noise constraint.

Post-treatment system, method for controlling post-treatment system, and vehicle

A post-treatment system includes two SCRs, a second SCR is connected to a booster in parallel, and a three-way valve is arranged before the second SCR and the booster, such that whether an exhaust gas flows through the second SCR or the booster is controlled by means of controlling the three-way valve. In the case of a low temperature, the three-way valve is controlled to close a branch of the booster, such that the exhaust gas flows through the second SCR and a first SCR that are connected in series, thereby reducing the energy loss caused by the exhaust gas flowing through the booster, and improving the NO.sub.x conversion efficiency in the case of a low temperature. In a case of a high temperature, the three-way valve is controlled to close a by-pass line, such that the exhaust gas flows through the booster and the first SCR.
