A marine muffler capable of handling both marine engine exhaust gas and marine engine cooling water includes a double wall baffle partitioning the muffler interior so as to function as a cooling water conduit. The cooling water conduit includes an inlet disposed external to the main muffler housing and an outlet configured and disposed so as to discharge the engine cooling water into the exhaust duct connected to the muffler outlet. The muffler is thus able to convey the engine cooling water through the muffler housing within a dedicated conduit while maintaining the cooling water separate from the exhaust gas. A muffler that is adapted to handle both the exhaust and cooling water flowing from a marine engine allows for the elimination of engine cooling water piping.

An open loop cooling water system is for a marine engine. A cooling water inlet receives cooling water from a body of water. A cooling water outlet discharges the cooling water back to the body of water. A cooling water circuit conveys cooling water from the cooling water inlet, through the marine engine, and to the cooling water outlet. A cooling water pump that pumps cooling water from upstream to downstream through the cooling water circuit. A recirculation pump that is located in the cooling water circuit downstream of at least one component of the marine engine and upstream of the cooling water outlet. The recirculation pump is configured to pump cooling water from downstream of the marine engine back into the cooling water circuit upstream of the marine engine. Methods are for cooling a marine engine using an open loop cooling system.

The present application provides a reductant dosing system for an SCR catalyst comprising an injector, a storage tank and a reductant pump arranged in a first fluid line between the storage tank and the injector for pumping reductant from the storage tank to the injector. The reductant dosing system comprises pressurizing means for pressurizing the storage tank.

An engine cooling system in a vehicle comprises a first coolant circuit and a second coolant circuit connecting an engine to a radiator. A thermostat is arranged in the first coolant circuit and is arranged to be closed during engine warm-up, to prevent flow through the first coolant circuit. The cooling system further comprises a bypass circuit connecting the thermostat to the second coolant circuit and at least one parallel circuit. Each parallel circuit is connected to the second coolant circuit upstream of the bypass circuit, wherein a partial coolant flow is directed from the bypass circuit and upstream through the second coolant circuit into the at least one parallel circuit during engine warm-up. The disclosure further relates to a method for controlling such an engine cooling system.

The invention relates to a cooling element (38; 40) for an injection valve (1; 41), in particular for injecting a liquid reduction agent into an exhaust train of a combustion engine, having a hollow region for receiving a section of the injection valve (1; 41) and a cooling plate (8) which is circumferential around the hollow region and a face plate (7) arranged on a face of the injection valve (1; 41) which has at least one injection opening (13), which enables the spraying of liquid out of the injection valve (1; 41) through the face plate (7). The face plate (7) has at least one bowl-shaped region (7a) formed having a front wall and at least one side wall which is designed to receive an injection-side section (1a; 41a) of the injection valve (1; 41), and the cooling plate (8) and the face plate (7) are connected to each other in a liquid-tight manner such that, in a state in which a section of an injection valve (1; 41) is properly arranged in the hollow region, a cooling volume (36) circulating around the section of the injection valve (1; 41) is delimited by the face plate (7), the cooling plate (8) and the injection valve (1; 41).

A thermoelectric power generation apparatus includes a heat transfer module configured to be attached to an exhaust manifold or an exhaust pipe; a thermoelectric module configured to be supplied with heat from the heat transfer module; and a cooling module configured to absorb heat from the thermoelectric module. Thus, it is possible to implement a thermoelectric power generation system in the vehicle without changing a shape of an exhaust system and a shape of the thermoelectric module.

A cylinder head assembly for an internal combustion engine is provided. In one example implementation, the cylinder head assembly includes a cylinder head, a bypass passage formed within the cylinder head and defining a catalyst cavity, and a bypass catalytic converter disposed within the catalyst cavity, where the bypass catalytic converter is configured to provide emissions reduction during cold start, long idle, and/or low main catalytic converter temperature conditions.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an exhaust gas treatment apparatus may include: a preprocessor configured to primarily remove harmful substances from exhaust gas produced by combustion; and a postprocessor configured to further remove harmful substances from preprocessed gas, which is the exhaust gas from which the harmful substances have been primarily removed by the preprocessor, wherein the postprocessor may include a postprocessor housing having a preprocessed gas inlet through which the preprocessed gas is introduced and a postprocessed gas outlet through which postprocessed gas from which harmful substances have been further removed by the postprocessor is discharged and forming a flow path of the preprocessed gas therein, and a diffuser disposed adjacent to the preprocessed gas inlet and configured to diffuse the preprocessed gas introduced through the preprocessed gas inlet.

In general, one aspect disclosed features an in-davit run kit for a lifeboat, the kit comprising: a water container comprising a first connector; a hose configured to connect with the first connector; and a second connector configured to connect to the hose, wherein the second connector is in fluid communication with a water cooling system of the lifeboat; wherein the in-davit run kit allows a water pump of the lifeboat to draw water from the water container into the water cooling system of the lifeboat.

The present disclosure relates to a method and a device (10) for cooling an exhaust-gas after-treatment apparatus (12). The device (10) has a coolant circuit (16) with a cooling region (18) for heat transfer with the exhaust-gas aftertreatment apparatus (12) and has at least one backflow preventer (20, 22). The at least one backflow preventer (20, 22) is arranged upstream and/or downstream of the cooling region (18) and is configured and/or oriented such that, in the event of a change in volume of the coolant in the cooling region (18) and in a section of the coolant circuit (16) between the cooling region (18) and the at least one backflow preventer (20, 22), said at least one backflow preventer (20, 22) opens, which takes place below a boiling point of the coolant. A natural circulation of the coolant in the coolant circuit (16) below the boiling point of the coolant can thus preferably be provided.
