Systems and methods for dry chemical reductant insertion in aftertreatment systems
A reductant insertion system for an after treatment system configured to decompose constituents of an exhaust gas, includes: a dry reductant tank configured to contain a dry reductant; a reductant delivery line configured to operatively couple the dry reductant tank to the after treatment system for delivery of the dry reductant to the after treatment system; and a pressurized gas source configured to communicate the dry reductant to the after treatment system through the reductant delivery line using pressurized gas.
Exhaust gas/reactant mixing assembly
An exhaust gas/reactant mixing assembly for an exhaust gas system of an internal combustion engine includes a mixing channel defining a longitudinal axis and extending in the direction thereof. A reactant delivery unit delivers reactant (R) into the mixing channel and an exhaust gas supply channel is arranged upstream of the mixing channel. The exhaust gas supply channel opens into the mixing channel at an opening channel region, wherein the opening channel region has at least two opening channel portions opening into the mixing channel.
VALVE SEAT INJECTOR
Aspects of the present invention relate to a valve seat (20) for a poppet valve of an internal combustion engine, wherein the poppet valve comprises a head and a stem behind the head, the valve seat comprising: an aperture (21) configured to form a seal with the head of the poppet valve when the poppet valve is in a closed position; and a peripheral body (22) defining, at least in part, one or more ports (23) shaped like e.g. grooves and sized to enable injection of liquid or gas from a cylinder head of the internal combustion engine into a gas stream behind the head of the poppet valve.
Exhaust gas aftertreatment systems
An exhaust gas aftertreatment system includes a housing assembly and a reductant delivery system. The housing assembly includes an upstream housing, a first inlet tube, a second inlet tube, and a mixing housing. The first inlet tube is coupled to the upstream housing and configured to receive a first portion of exhaust gas from the upstream housing. The second inlet tube is coupled to the upstream housing and configured to receive a second portion of the exhaust gas from the upstream housing. The mixing housing is coupled to the first inlet tube and the second inlet tube. The mixing housing is configured to receive the first portion of the exhaust gas from the first inlet tube and receive the second portion of the exhaust gas from the second inlet tube. The mixing housing is separated from the upstream housing by the first inlet tube and the second inlet tube.
Reductant nozzle with helical channel design
A nozzle including a first end and a second end. The first end includes at least a first inlet and a second inlet and the second end includes a plurality of outlets. An exterior surface extends from the first end to the second end of the nozzle. A plurality of vanes are disposed on the exterior surface and extend from the first end to the second end of the nozzle. A plurality of channels form along the exterior surface of the nozzle.
Denitration device, heat recovery steam generator having the same, gas turbine combined cycle power plant and method of denitration
A denitration device comprising a duct (22) that leads and distributes exhaust gas from a turbine (56) of a gas turbine (50) including a compressor (52) and the turbine (56), an ammonia injection grid (24) that sprays, into the duct (22), an mixed gas in which ammonia gas and dilution air are mixed with each other, and a denitration catalyst (26) that is installed on a downstream side of flow of the exhaust gas of the ammonia injection grid in the duct (22), and there is provided an air bleeding line (76) that is connected to a low compression portion of the compressor (52) of the gas turbine (50) and supplies air bled of the compressor (52) into the ammonia injection grid (24) as the dilution air.
EXHAUST FLUID INJECTOR ASSEMBLY
An injector for a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) delivery system includes a first conduit extending along a longitudinal direction; a second conduit extending along the longitudinal direction and disposed within the first conduit; a nozzle tip having a side wall and an end wall; and a shell surrounding the first conduit and being spaced apart from the first conduit along a radial direction. The side wall has a thickness extending along the radial direction from an external surface of the nozzle tip to an inner surface of the second conduit. The end wall defines an outlet flow passage therethrough, and the outlet flow passage is in fluid communication with the first conduit and the second conduit via a chamber defined by an internal surface of the nozzle tip.
VENTURI MIXER WITH CLAMSHELL STAMPING
A mixer for a vehicle exhaust gas system, according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a mixer housing defining an internal cavity and a venturi section including integrally formed mixing vanes and positioned within the internal cavity. The venturi section comprises a first portion and a second portion that are combined to provide a mixing chamber therebetween. A doser mount opening is formed within the mixer housing that is open to the mixing chamber.
PROCESS FOR IMPROVING ENGINE EFFICIENCY USING A FUEL REFORMING SYSTEM
A method of operating an engine includes igniting a combustible mixture in a combustion chamber of the engine, which produces exhaust gases. The exhaust gases are ejected into an exhaust manifold of the engine to create a primary exhaust stream. A portion of the exhaust gases is separated from the primary exhaust stream to create a secondary exhaust stream. Air and fuel are then mixed with the secondary exhaust stream to form a reformer feed mixture. The reformer feed mixture is reacted in a catalytic reformer to create a reformate exhaust stream, which is then mixed with an intake air stream to create a mixed air stream. The mixed air stream is the fed to the combustion chamber of the engine as the combustible mixture.
EXHAUST TREATMENT SYSTEM FOR WORK VEHICLES AND RELATED FLOW MIXERS
An exhaust treatment system for a work vehicle includes a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system having an SCR outlet for expelling treated exhaust flow therefrom, a flow conduit in fluid communication with the outlet, an exhaust sensor positioned within the flow conduit downstream of the outlet, and a flow mixer positioned upstream of the exhaust sensor. The flow mixer has an end wall defining sector openings circumferentially extending between first and second sector sides and radially between radially inner and outer sector ends. Moreover, the flow mixer has swirler vanes, where each of the swirler vanes extends circumferentially from the first sector side of a respective one of the sector openings and radially between radially inner and outer vane ends. Particularly, the radially outer vane end of each of the swirler vanes is spaced apart from the radially outer sector end of the respective one of the sector openings.
