Engine
An engine is provided with an engine body, a crankshaft, a cooling fan, an exhaust manifold, a supercharger, an ATD that purifies exhaust gas, and a second exhaust pipe. When the height direction of the engine is defined as a first direction, the crankshaft extends in a second direction vertical to the first direction. The cooling fan is disposed on one side of the engine body in the second direction. The supercharger is driven by the exhaust gas from the exhaust manifold. The second exhaust pipe connects the supercharger and the ATD. The ATD is disposed in an attitude in which the longitudinal direction thereof is parallel to the second direction. The second exhaust pipe is connected to the cooling fan side of the ATD in the second direction. The second exhaust pipe is disposed so as to pass laterally with respect to the exhaust manifold and below the supercharger.
EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAVING TURBINE CONNECTOR WITH TURBINE FOOT
A turbine connector in an engine exhaust manifold includes a turbine foot attached to incoming exhaust conduits. The turbine foot has an outer perimetric edge defining a trapezoidal shape, and inner perimetric edges forming exhaust outlets from the incoming exhaust conduits. The inner perimetric edges have varied perimetric curvatures largest in finite curvature size upon a web extending between the exhaust outlets, and together forming an hourglass web profile in a turbine-mounting plane defined by the turbine foot.
Systems for exhaust sensor
Systems are provided for a sensor. In one example, a system includes a cover for a sensor mounted in a turbine casing, wherein the cover comprises a first opening configured to admit exhaust gases in a first direction normal to gravity and a second opening configured to admit exhaust gases in a second direction opposite gravity.
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.
System, apparatus, and method for diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) dosing
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.
Exhaust additive dosing system comprising a turbocharger
Disclosed is a turbocharger for an internal combustion engine comprising a turbine having a turbine housing and a diffusor. The turbine housing comprises an exhaust gas outlet volume, and the diffusor is arranged in this volume. A housing orifice and a diffusor orifice are arranged through each of the turbine housing and diffusor respectively and are mutually aligned to provide an opening into the exhaust gas outlet volume. The turbocharger further comprises a bushing arranged within the housing orifice and extending towards the diffusor orifice and ending at a first end in association with the diffusor orifice. The first end of bushing has an internal diameter that is greater than or equal to a diameter of the diffusor orifice.
Turbocharger System For A Two-Stroke Engine
A turbocharger and method of controlling the same includes a turbine housing comprising an inlet and an outlet, turbine wheel coupled to a shaft. The turbine housing comprising a first scroll and a second scroll for fluidically coupling the inlet and the turbine wheel. The first scroll has a first end adjacent the inlet and a second end adjacent the turbine wheel. The second scroll has a third end adjacent the inlet and a fourth end adjacent the turbine wheel. An exhaust gas diverter valve is coupled to the turbine housing restricting flow into the first scroll or the second scroll.
APPARATUS FOR REDUCING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION IN VESSEL COOPERATED WITH EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION AND INTELLIGENT CONTROL BY EXHAUST RECYCLING AND VESSEL INCLUDING THE SAME
The present invention relates to an apparatus for reducing greenhouse gas emission in a vessel cooperated with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and intelligent control by exhaust recycling (iCER), and a vessel including the same, in which EGR and iCER are combined so that NO.sub.x generation is reduced by EGR and CO.sub.2 and SO.sub.x are absorbed and converted into materials that do not affect environments, thereby preventing corrosion of an engine, improving combustion quality, increasing engine efficiency by iCER, and reducing methane slip.
Applied-Ignition Internal Combustion Engine and Method for Operating the Internal Combustion Engine
An applied-ignition internal combustion engine includes first and second combustion chambers, an exhaust-gas system with an exhaust-gas purification system is disposed at the first and second combustion chambers, and an exhaust-gas manifold. An exhaust gas from a combustion of a fuel/air mixture firstly flows through the exhaust-gas manifold and subsequently flows through the exhaust-gas purification system. A first section of the exhaust-gas system from the first combustion chamber to the exhaust-gas purification system is cooled more than a second section of the exhaust-gas system from the second combustion chamber to the exhaust-gas purification system. The first combustion chamber is operated with a lean fuel/air mixture, the second combustion chamber is operated with a rich fuel/air mixture, and an overall exhaust-gas lambda value at an inlet into the exhaust-gas purification system is stoichiometric.
Catalyst early activation control at cold engine start
An ECM executes a catalyst early activation control at 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, during execution of the catalyst early activation control, repeating opening and closing of the WGV with a given period and diagnosing whether or not the WGV is stuck, based on whether or not a fluctuation component with the same period as the period of the opening and closing of the WGV is included in output from an intake manifold pressure sensor during the repetition.
