An agricultural harvester includes an IC engine, a grain tank, and a fluid cooling system for at least one component onboard the agricultural harvester. The fluid cooling system has a cooling package positioned between the IC engine and the grain tank. The cooling package includes a housing, and a plurality of cooling units arranged in a side-to-side manner within the housing, transverse to a fore-aft direction of the harvester.

A flow distributor provided within an exhaust system for a combustion engine configured to generate an exhaust fluid stream. The flow distributor comprising an inlet, and a plate. The plate having at least one perforation defining an outlet, a first peak and a second peak spaced from the first peak.

A fuel supply system for an internal combustion engine includes an air compressor, an air cooler connected downstream of the air compressor and the compressed air supply passage, and a bypass passage connected downstream of the air compressor. The fuel supply system also includes a fuel injector secured to the compressed air supply passage or secured to the bypass passage and a valve connected between the air compressor and the air cooler, the valve being configured to block a flow of intake air to the air cooler, causing the intake air to flow to the bypass passage or to permit the flow of intake air to the air cooler.

A diesel fuel and DEF combination tank provides a supplemental storage of diesel fuel and DEF for a vehicle. In particular, the combination tank comprises a first compartment for diesel fuel and a second compartment for DEF. Each compartment is provided with a respective outlet port for dispensing the fuel from the combination tank. Dispensing of fluid to the vehicle's fuel system is conducted by gravity feed or alternatively by pumping.

A variable valve timing assembly includes an electric motor; a first set of gears driven by the electric motor; a first set of grooves and ball bearings driven by the first set of gears; a second set of grooves and ball bearings driven by the first of grooves and ball bearings; wherein the first set of grooves and ball bearings converts rotational movement of the first set of gears to axial rotational movement of the first set of ball bearings; wherein the axial movement of the first set of ball bearings causes rotational movement of the second set of grooves; whereby the rotational movement of the second set of grooves enables rotation of a camshaft engaged to a valve.

Methods and systems are provided for an air system. In one example, a system includes a boost device configured to be driven by exhaust air from a plurality of cylinder in order to compress ambient air. The compressed ambient air is delivered to a tank configured to store compressed gases.

An engine system includes an internal combustion engine, an energy storage device configured to provide electrical power, and an electrified air-boost system powered by the electrical power from the energy storage device to boost intake air to the engine, with the electrified air-boost system further including an electrical machine and a pressure device driven by the electrical machine to output boosted intake air to the engine. The engine system also includes a controller operably connected with the electrified air-boost system, with the controller configured to monitor engine speed and engine load during operation of the engine, identify an impending engine stall condition based on the monitored engine speed and engine load, and when the impending engine stall condition is identified, temporarily operate the electrified air-boost system to boost the intake air to the engine, thereby boosting a torque output of the engine.

A flexible cartridge assembly can include a flexible shell that includes a flexible portion disposed between a compressor-side portion and a turbine-side portion, where the flexible portion includes a series of arc-shaped cutouts disposed axially along at least a portion of the flexible portion; a compressor-side bearing assembly; and a turbine-side bearing assembly.

Methods and systems are described for enhanced engine friction generation. The enhanced engine friction generation improves the effectiveness of vehicle braking in deceleration fuel cut-off driving conditions by using engine vacuum and backpressure to temporarily increase engine pumping losses, thereby increasing powertrain drag and increasing deceleration torque to the wheels. The engine vacuum and backpressure may be created by changing the duration of the intake and/or exhaust valves. The system includes a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising adjusting an intake valve time duration or an exhaust valve time duration to increase engine friction to enhance mechanical friction on a drivetrain of a vehicle.

A SCR catalyst composition comprises a SCR catalyst; and a binder comprising a porous inorganic material, wherein the porous inorganic material comprises a disordered arrangement of delaminated layers, has a disordered porous structure, and has a multimodal pore size distribution comprising at least a first modal maximum having a macroporous or mesoporous pore size and a second modal maximum having a microporous pore size. The SCR catalyst composition can be manufactured using the method comprising the steps of: (i) providing an inorganic material having a layered structure; (ii) contacting the material with a cationic surfactant to form a swollen material; (iii) agitating the swollen material to form an agitated material; and (iv) calcining the agitated material to recover a delaminated inorganic material, wherein an SCR catalyst is mixed with the inorganic material prior to step (iv).
