The dual function exhaust system attachment, which is preferably used with an all-terrain vehicle, includes a muffler, a silencing cap, and a sound-enhancing plug. In a quiet configuration, the silencing cap is mounted to conceal a primary outlet of the muffler. In a loud configuration, the sound-enhancing plug is mounted to conceal a secondary outlet of the muffler. A set of screw threads or sealing mechanism may be used to mount the silencing cap and the sound-enhancing plug. A primary perforated barrier, a solid barrier, at least one secondary perforated barrier, and a pipe section are positioned within a hollow structural body of the muffler to guide the exhaust gas flow from an inlet of the muffler to the primary outlet or the secondary outlet.

After treatment exhaust gas mixer

An after-treatment exhaust gas mixer for mixing the exhaust gas with a reducing agent, such as a diesel exhaust fluid for selective catalyst reduction, comprises a mixing chamber through which the exhaust gas circulates, from an inlet to an outlet, and a reducing agent sprayer, able to spray a reducing agent into the mixing chamber. The mixing chamber comprises a pipe that is rectilinear along an axis and the sprayer is positioned in the upstream part of the rectilinear pipe and oriented so as to spray in the downstream direction substantially parallel to the axis.

EXHAUST SYSTEM

Exhaust systems for a vehicle are provided. In one example, an exhaust system includes a muffler, a first exhaust outlet pipe fluidly coupled to a first outlet of the muffler, a second exhaust outlet pipe fluidly coupled to a second outlet of the muffler, a bypass duct fluidly coupled to a third outlet of the muffler, and a combined X-Y shaped intersection at which the first exhaust outlet pipe, the second exhaust outlet pipe, and the bypass duct are fluidly coupled to each other.

Aftertreatment system for mixing a reductant in an exhaust gas flowing therethrough

An SCR system includes at least one catalyst, and an intake conduit. The intake conduit includes an intake conduit first sidewall, at least a portion of which defines a first curvature. An intake conduit second sidewall is coupled to the intake conduit first sidewall so as to define the intake conduit. A catalyst is fluidly coupled to the intake conduit through the intake conduit second sidewall. The intake conduit second sidewall is inclined at a first angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the SCR system, such that an intake conduit second end cross-section of the intake conduit is smaller than an intake conduit first end cross-section. An intake conduit third sidewall is positioned at the intake conduit second end. The intake conduit is structured to produce an even flow split of the exhaust gas through the intake conduit internal volume towards the catalyst.

Fluid-cooled manifolds and engine systems

A fluid-cooled manifold is configured to cool exhaust from an engine. The fluid-cooled manifold includes a plurality of exhaust runners. Each of the exhaust runners includes a runner body having an inlet end and an outlet end, an exhaust conduit extending through the runner body, and a coolant passage extending through the runner body. The fluid-cooled manifold also includes an exhaust collection manifold including a plurality of inlets. Each inlet of the exhaust collection manifold is coupled to the exhaust outlet opening of a respective one of the exhaust runners. The fluid-cooled manifold also includes a coolant feed pipe and a coolant exit pipe. The coolant feed pipe includes a plurality of outlets coupled to the coolant inlets of the exhaust runners. Likewise, the coolant exit pipe includes a plurality of inlets coupled to the coolant outlets of the exhaust runners.

Pulse exhaust pipe and diesel engine installed with pulse exhaust pipe

A pulse exhaust pipe for use with diesel engines an end of the pulse exhaust pipe is in communication with eight cylinders, and another end is in communication with two turbochargers; the pulse exhaust pipe includes three exhaust pipe sections which are separated from each other, each exhaust pipe section discharging to a turbocharger independently, wherein a first exhaust pipe section is in communication with a first and second cylinder, while a second exhaust pipe section is in communication with a third to a sixth cylinder, and a third exhaust pipe section is in communication with a seventh and eighth cylinder. The pulse exhaust pipe may prevent the backward flow of exhaust gas and inlet air back flow, thus increasing inflation efficiency and improving the uniformity of each cylinder. Also provided is a diesel engine installed with said pulse exhaust pipe.

Sinuous Balanced Tailpipe System

A sinuous balanced mid-pipe exhaust system has a straight mid-pipe and a sinuous mid-pipe disposed intermediate manifold and muffler. The manifold has a differential bilateral manifold pipe length. The longer manifold pipe connected to the straight mid-pipe and the shorter manifold pipe connected to the sinuous mid-pipe. Sinuous mid-pipe has 2-3 sinusoidal curved segments such that a sinuous gas flow path therethrough substantially equals the straight pipe flow path length and the manifold differential pipe length. The method balances and equalizes gas flows by defining straight gas flow path, having a path length and defining a sinuous gas flow path with at least two sinusoidal segments which is equal to the path length and the differential path length.
