10537852 · 2020-01-21 · ·

An exhaust-gas-purifying system of an internal combustion engine of the present disclosure sets a reduction treatment necessity flag to ON when an input gas temperature of an exhaust gas introduced into an exhaust-gas-purifying catalyst is higher than a reference temperature. Then, it is determined whether reduction treatment execution conditions in which the reduction treatment necessity flag has been set to ON and the input gas temperature has decreased and falls within a preset temperature range up to a reference temperature or lower are satisfied. Then, when it is determined that reduction treatment execution conditions are satisfied, a reduction treatment in which an air-fuel ratio of an intake gas supplied into the engine is adjusted to be richer than a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio is performed, and the reduction treatment necessity flag is set to OFF.

SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION DEVICE CONTROL

Technical solutions described herein include an emissions control system for treating exhaust gas in a motor vehicle including an internal combustion engine. The emissions control system includes a model-based controller to control reductant injection into the exhaust gas. Controlling the reductant injection includes determining an amount of NOx and an amount of NH3 at an outlet of the first SCR device, and at an outlet of the second SCR device. The controlling further includes computing an amount of reductant to inject to maintain a first predetermined ratio between the amount of NH3 and the amount of NOx at the outlet of the first SCR device and to maintain a second predetermined ratio between the amount of NH3 and the amount of NOx at the outlet of the second SCR device. Further, the controlling includes sending a command for receipt by the reductant injector to inject the computed amount of reductant.

DELAY BASED FEED FORWARD STRATEGY TO CONTROL PRESSURE IN A DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEM

A system for regulating pressure in a diesel exhaust fluid delivery system. The system includes a first dosing valve, a pump, a hydraulic line, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to determine a dosing demand, determine a time delay between the first dosing valve opening and the pump activating, and determine a first threshold time and a second threshold time based on the time delay.
