An exhaust gas purification system for a gasoline engine is described the system comprising in consecutive order the following devices: •a first three-way-catalyst (TWC1), a gasoline particulate filter (GPF) and a second three-way-catalyst (TWC2), •wherein the oxygen storage capacity (OSC) of the GPF is greater than the OSC of the TWC1, wherein the OSC is determined in mg/l of the volume of the device.

Given that power blackouts occur very infrequently, a TRANSportable GENset emissions reduction system (XGEN) that fixes a larger and more significant problem of reducing emissions from routine periodic testing of gensets, whereas the system may be scheduled to be shared by a multitude of gensets, thereby reducing costs through efficient use of capital expenditures while also increasing the quality of emissions reductions as compared to applying individual exhaust treatments each genset.

Systems, apparatuses, assemblies, and methods for diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) dosing can include a body defining an injector adaptor inlet and an injector adaptor outlet; and an injector mount or interface extending from the body. The injector mount can be between the first and second ends of the injector adaptor. The injector adaptor outlet can define an area greater than an area of the injector adaptor inlet. In a side view of the injector adaptor, at a bottom side of the body, a first straight line can extend along the body from the injector adaptor inlet to the injector adaptor outlet, and at a top side of the body opposite the bottom side, a second straight line can extend along the body from the injector adaptor inlet to the injector adaptor outlet. The second straight line can be at an acute angle relative to the first straight line.

Described herein is a process for increasing mass flow of an exhaust gas through a catalytic converter system for a vehicle. The process may comprise determining a centerline and corresponding cumulative centerline bend angle of a first catalytic converter system spanning from an inlet point at a first end of the catalytic converter systems exhaust pipe to an outlet point at a second end of the catalytic converter systems extension pipe. Once determined, the cumulative centerline bend angle may be increased by increasing an individual bend radius of at least one bend within the exhaust pipe and/or within the extension pipe.

An exhaust manifold comprises a plurality of exhaust intake conduits structured to be fluidly coupled to an engine and receive exhaust gas from a corresponding cylinder of the engine. At least one exhaust intake conduit provides a reduction in an exhaust intake conduit cross-sectional area from an inlet to an outlet. A plurality of bends are each defined by a respective one of the exhaust intake conduit outlets. An exhaust intake manifold is fluidly coupled to the exhaust intake manifold and defines an exhaust intake manifold flow axis. Each of the plurality of bends is shaped so as to define n angle of approach of exhaust gas flowing therethrough. A first angle of approach of the first bend relative to the exhaust intake manifold flow axis is smaller than a second angle of approach of an inner second bend.

An engine assembly and a method of control thereof is provided. The engine assembly comprises: an exhaust gas aftertreatment device having an inlet for receiving exhaust gases leaving an engine; a heater for selectively heating gases at or upstream of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device; an air moving device for driving a flow of gases into the inlet of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device when the engine is in a non-running condition; and a controller configured to, prior to the engine being started: operate the heater to heat gases at or upstream of the inlet; and operate the air moving device to drive a flow of gases into the inlet to thereby heat the exhaust gas treatment device.

A decomposition chamber for an aftertreatment system includes: a body comprising: an inlet configured to receive exhaust gas, an outlet configured to expel the exhaust gas, a thermal management chamber in fluid communication with the inlet, the thermal management chamber configured to receive an exhaust gas first portion from the inlet, an exhaust assist chamber in fluid communication with the inlet, the exhaust assist chamber configured to receive an exhaust gas second portion from the inlet, and a main flow chamber in fluid communication with the inlet, the main flow chamber configured to receive an exhaust gas third portion from the inlet, receive the exhaust gas first portion from the thermal management chamber, and receive the exhaust gas second portion from the exhaust assist chamber.

An exhaust treatment system for a work vehicle includes a mixing conduit extending between upstream and downstream ends along a bulk flow direction, where the upstream end receives engine exhaust. The system further includes an injector nozzle configured to inject exhaust reductant into the mixing conduit at a location between the upstream and downstream ends. Additionally, the system includes a branch conduit, where an inlet end of the branch conduit is fluidly coupled to the mixing conduit upstream of a location at which an outlet end of the branch conduit is fluidly coupled to the mixing conduit. A portion of the exhaust flowing through the mixing conduit may be directed through the branch conduit, where the outlet end of the branch conduit is configured to direct the portion of the exhaust back into the mixing conduit such that a spiraling flow of the exhaust is generated within the mixing conduit.

A recycling loop configuration of an exhaust gas aftertreatment system decreases a level of system-out NO.sub.x emissions of an engine. An apparatus including the configuration has an exhaust gas recycling system having a closed gas recycling loop system configured to heat gas circulating within the loop, and a blower for circulating gas within the loop. A method for operating the engine includes preheating at least one aftertreatment component of an exhaust gas aftertreatment system of the engine by exposing the component to heated gas circulating in a closed gas recycling loop.
