Method for operating a particulate filter in an exhaust aftertreatment system of a combustion engine
A method for the operation of a particulate filter in an exhaust aftertreatment system of a combustion engine (200) with the following steps: set up (111, 116) a pressure difference model, which models a measured pressure difference (Δp) which drops across the particulate filter (210) as a function (220) of a volume flow ({dot over (V)}) through the particulate filter (210) with an offset value (a.sub.0, C); measure (120) multiple measurement values (245) for the pressure difference (Δp) at different volume flows ({dot over (V)}) and solve (130) the pressure difference model as a function of the pressure difference (Δp), whereby the offset value (a.sub.0, C) is also determined.
Systems and methods for controlling exhaust gas aftertreatment sensor systems
An exhaust gas aftertreatment system includes a first sensor configured to measure a parameter and a second sensor disposed proximate the first sensor and configured to measure the parameter. The system includes a controller configured to initially utilize the first sensor as a primary sensor. At target intervals, the controller is configured to receive a first sensor value from the first sensor and receive a second sensor value from the second sensor. The controller is configured to calculate a difference between the first sensor value and the second sensor value and determine if the difference between the first sensor value and the second sensor value is greater than a threshold value. If the difference between the first and second sensor values is greater than the threshold value, the controller is configured to stop utilizing the first sensor as the primary sensor and utilize the second sensor as the primary sensor.

Machine learning for misfire detection in a dynamic firing level modulation controlled engine of a vehicle
Using machine learning for cylinder misfire detection in a dynamic firing level modulation controlled internal combustion engine is described. In a classification embodiment, cylinder misfires are differentiated from intentional skips based on a measured exhaust manifold pressure. In a regressive model embodiment, the measured exhaust manifold pressure is compared to a predicted exhaust manifold pressure generated by neural network in response to one or more inputs indicative of the operation of the vehicle. Based on the comparison, a prediction is made if a misfire has occurred or not. In yet other alternative embodiment, angular crank acceleration is used as well for misfire detection.

HIGH-PRESSURE SCR SYSTEM WITH VENTING AND PRESSURE-STABILIZING FOR MARINE DIESEL ENGINE AND SHIP HAVING THE SAME
A high-pressure SCR system with venting and pressure-stabilizing for marine diesel engine, comprising an SCR reactor (10), a gas intake pipeline (20), an exhaust pipeline (30), a bypass pipeline (40), a pneumatic pipeline (50), a first auxiliary pipeline (70), and a second auxiliary pipeline (80). When the exhaust gas of the diesel engine needs to undergo denitrification treatment, the exhaust gas of the diesel engine can enter from a flue gas inlet, sequentially pass through the gas intake pipeline (20), the SCR reactor (10), and the exhaust pipeline (30), and be discharged from a flue gas outlet, the exhaust gas undergoing denitrification treatment in the SCR reactor (10). When the exhaust gas of the diesel engine does not need to undergo denitrification treatment, the exhaust gas can enter the bypass pipeline (40) from the flue gas inlet and be discharged from the flue gas outlet, the exhaust gas in the SCR reactor (10) and exhaust pipeline being pushed by compressed air entering from the first auxiliary pipeline (70) and the second auxiliary pipeline (80) to be discharged from the flue gas outlet. The present system eliminates the original inlet air pipeline, simplifying the structure of the entire system so that the entire system is more compact, ensuring thorough ventilation and reducing the amount of air consumption.
