There is provided an air cleaner configured to be disposed inside a vehicle body frame, the air cleaner including: an air cleaner case in which an intake chamber is formed; an intake air temperature sensor configured to detect an intake air temperature in the intake chamber; an inlet tube configured to take in air to the intake chamber; and an outlet tube configured to send out air from the intake chamber. The outlet tube has an upstream portion protruding into the intake chamber, and the upstream portion of the outlet tube has a peripheral wall formed with a through hole.

A gasoline particulate filter (GPF) diagnostic technique utilizes an upstream temperature sensor arranged at an upstream point relative to a GPF brick that the GPF is configured to house and configured to measure an upstream temperature of exhaust gas produced by an engine, a downstream temperature sensor arranged at a downstream point relative to the GPF brick and configured to measure a downstream temperature of the exhaust gas produced by the engine, and a controller configured to detect whether the GPF brick is damaged or missing based on a temperature difference between the upstream and downstream exhaust gas temperatures, a set of temperature thresholds, and a current operational mode of the engine.

An air supply system in building elevators for the purpose of providing continuous purified and filtered exterior air for the improved safety of elevator cab passengers. The air supply system is separate from that of the building. System components include: an air intake means in the top of the building to receive exterior air; an air filtering and purifying mechanism; an air blower and compressor; air heating and cooling unit; a pressure controlled air plenum; a flexible vertical lightweight traveling tube that continuously carries purified air from the plenum near the top of the building to the cab interior, a flexible vertical lightweight air exhaust traveling tube that continuously carries spent air from the cab interior discharge conduit to the building exterior exhaust, wherein both tubes are affixed to the elevator traveling cable and extend the height of the building.

A particulate filter for use in an exhaust aftertreatment system includes a ceramic substrate and an ash layer deposited atop the ceramic substrate. The ash layer has a uniform ash density of at least 0.4 g/L of the ceramic substrate. A method of depositing ash layers in a particulate filter of an exhaust aftertreatment system includes providing a ceramic substrate, preconditioning the ceramic substrate, depositing at least one ash layer atop the ceramic substrate during the preconditioning, monitoring uptake of soot into the particulate filter by measuring an increase in pressure drop across the particulate filter.

An air quality system includes an air precleaner, a filter identification component, and a control module. The air precleaner has a precleaner housing and a filter disposed inside the precleaner housing. The filter identification component is positioned within the precleaner housing at a first position and is mounted on the filter. The control module is positioned within the precleaner housing at a second position and is configured to emit an electrical field and communicate with the filter identification component via the emitted electrical field.

Particulate filters are used to remove particulate matter such as soot and ash in the emissions control systems of vehicles, including gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines. Methods are provided to predict the long-term performance and durability of emissions control systems having particulate filters. The methods account for factors such as thermal aging, soot accumulation and regeneration, and ash loading.
