SYSTEMS, METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR WET STACK RESIDUE MITIGATION
An intelligent electronic device (IED) may monitor wet stack residue buildup of a diesel engine. Once the wet stack residue accumulates to a certain amount, the IED may perform a mitigation procedure. Additionally, tracking wet stack residue buildup may allow an IED to attempt to prevent or reduce accumulation of the wet stack residue. The IED may track an operating power level of the diesel engine to estimate the rate of residue buildup.

A work vehicle includes an exhaust gas treatment device including a DPF (diesel particulate filter); a DPF condition determiner configured to determine a DPF condition as a condition of the DPF based on a detection signal from a sensor; a monitor configured to display the DPF condition and having a DPF condition display area that includes a plurality of text segments to display respective predetermined text items different from each other; and a text display controller configured to light up two or more of the plurality of text segments in accordance with the DPF condition determined by the DPF condition determiner.
HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROLLER AND HYBRID VEHICLE
A hybrid vehicle controller includes processing circuitry configured to execute a particulate matter (PM) deposition amount estimation process that estimates a deposition amount of PM deposited in the filter. The processing circuitry is configured to switch between a first mode and a second mode as a control mode that defines control of the engine and the motor. A use of the engine is limited in the first mode as compared with the second mode. The processing circuitry is configured to execute a display process that notifies a user that the filter needs to be regenerated when the control mode is the second mode if the estimated deposition amount is greater than or equal to a predetermined amount, and not to execute the display process when the control mode is the first mode even if the deposition amount is greater than or equal to the predetermined amount.
EXHAUST PURIFYING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING EXHAUST PURIFYING APPARATUS
A controller controls energization of a filter and a fuel addition valve in an exhaust purifying apparatus. The controller executes a filter regeneration process when an electrical resistance value between two electrodes fixed to an outer surface of the filter is less than a predetermined regeneration determination value. The controller executes a soot burning process when the electrical resistance value is greater than or equal to the regeneration determination value and less than a soot burning determination value, which is set in advance to be larger than the regeneration determination value.
Method of Controlling Operation of an Exhaust Gas Treatment Apparatus
A method is disclosed for controlling an engine assembly comprising an internal combustion engine and an exhaust gas treatment apparatus. The aftertreatment assembly may require cleaning from time to time, and where this involves active thermal management of the aftertreatment assembly, the method involves performing the following steps: (a) imposing a first limit on engine speed; (b) awaiting an engine safe state; and (c) implementing a cleaning process comprising: (i) injecting fuel into the engine such that the fuel passes through the engine without combusting for the fuel to combust in the diesel oxidation catalyst so as to target an increase in exhaust gas temperature in the diesel oxidation catalyst; and (ii) removing the first limit on engine speed and targeting an engine speed set point, wherein the engine speed set point is at a higher speed than the first limit on engine speed.
