20120279206 | DEVICE, METHOD, AND SYSTEM FOR EMISSIONS CONTROL - An exhaust gas treatment device includes a first substrate coated with a low temperature catalyst configured to facilitate formation of an oxidizer when an exhaust gas temperature is below a threshold temperature. The device further includes a second substrate coated with a high temperature catalyst and positioned coaxially with the first substrate, the high temperature catalyst configured to facilitate formation of the oxidizer when the exhaust gas temperature is above the threshold temperature. | 11-08-2012 |
20130067887 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING EXHAUST FLOW THROUGH AN AFTERTREATMENT DEVICE - Various methods and systems are provided for a system for an engine. In one example, the system includes an exhaust passage through which exhaust gas is configured to flow from the engine. The system further includes an aftertreatment system disposed in the exhaust passage, the aftertreatment system including an aftertreatment device and a bypass with a bypass control element, the bypass control element adjustable to reduce exhaust gas flow through the aftertreatment device during tunneling operation. | 03-21-2013 |
20130186376 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION - Various methods and systems are provided for diagnosing an engine component condition in an exhaust gas recirculation system. In one example, a method includes selectively routing exhaust from a subset of engine cylinders to an exhaust passage via a first valve and to an intake passage via a second valve, and obtaining one or more of a pressure or temperature from the subset of engine cylinders. The method further includes indicating an engine component condition based on the one or more of the pressure or temperature. | 07-25-2013 |
20140052360 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR AN ENGINE - Various injector cooling structures and related engine systems and methods are provided. In one example, an injector cooling structure includes a cooling channel defined by a cooling jacket of a turbine. A cooling bore is provided at least partially within the cooling jacket, with the cooling bore configured to receive a pintle of an injector. The cooling channel is configured to circulate coolant for cooling the injector. | 02-20-2014 |
