Exhaust structure for vehicle-mounted engine
This exhaust structure for a vehicle-mounted engine has an air intake channel 3 disposed on one side of an engine main body and an exhaust channel disposed on the other side thereof, the exhaust structure for the vehicle-mounted engine comprising: a turbine of a turbocharger disposed on the other side of the engine main body and connected to the exhaust channel; a first exhaust gas purification device connected to the exhaust channel downstream of the turbine; and a second exhaust gas purification device connected to the exhaust channel 4 downstream of the first exhaust gas purification device. The first exhaust gas purification device is disposed so as to be near the rear of the turbocharger, and the second exhaust gas purification device is disposed so as to be near a cylinder hock on the other side of the engine main body.
In-port ship exhaust capture device
A device for capturing in-port ship exhaust gases is designed to be connected to a ship when the ship has at least one funnel that serves as an outlet for exhaust gases. The device includes at least one collection device, including a hood designed to connect to the funnel at the exhaust outlet so as to collect the exhaust gases coming out of the funnel, a handling unit designed to move the collection device and position it at the exhaust outlet, a first constraint configured to interconnect or disconnect the collection device and the handling unit by command so as to create a handling configuration in which the collection device and the handling unit are interconnected by the first constraint and can be moved as one, and a collection configuration in which the collection device collects the exhaust gases and the connection achieved by the first constraint is released.
Exhaust Gas After-Treatment System Of An Engine Designed As Gas Engine Or Dual-Fuel Engine, Engine And Method For Operating The Same
The exhaust gas after-treatment system of an engine configured as a gas engine or as a dual-fuel engine includes a catalyst, that can be flowed through by exhaust gas, a control tube extending through a recess in the catalyst, which control tube is movable relative to the catalyst and is flowable through by exhaust gas, and an actuator which is equipped to move the control tube relative to the catalyst dependent on at least one operating condition of the engine and/or at least one operating condition of the exhaust gas after-treatment system such that in a first relative position of the control tube relative to the catalyst, the catalyst can be flowed through by exhaust gas but not the control tube, and in a second relative position of the control tube relative to the catalyst, the control tube can be flowed through by the exhaust gas but not the catalyst.
Exhaust gas purification filter
In an exhaust gas purification filter, a partition wall has communicating pores. Each communicating pore has a surface opening on the gas-inflow-side surface and a plurality of portions, each portion having a diameter being reduced and then increased from the surface opening, one of the portions, whose diameter is the smallest, being defined as an inlet neck portion. As viewed in cross section in a thickness direction of the partition wall, the surface opening of each communication pore has a diameter defined as a surface opening diameter, the inlet neck portion of each communication pore has a diameter defined as an inlet neck diameter. The inlet neck diameter is smaller than the surface opening diameter, and an average value of the inlet neck diameters is 15 μm or less. A surface opening ratio of the communicating pores in plan view of the gas-inflow-side partition wall surface is 40% or more.
STRADDLE-TYPE VEHICLE
A straddle-type vehicle comprises an engine which generates driving power and emits an exhaust gas; an exhaust device including: a catalyst which cleans the exhaust gas, an inner tube in which the catalyst is disposed and through which the exhaust gas flows, the inner tube extending to a location downstream of the catalyst; and an outer tube which covers an outer peripheral surface of the inner tube in an axial direction of the inner tube, and has a muffling space through which the exhaust gas discharged from the inner tube is flowed to reduce an exhaust noise radiated from the engine; at least one exhaust pipe through which the exhaust gas is led to the catalyst; and a downstream oxygen sensor which detects an oxygen concentration of the exhaust gas after flowing through the catalyst, at a location downstream of the catalyst in the inner tube.
