Abstract: A controller may identify a plurality of sets of potential parameters associated with operation of an engine, wherein each set of potential parameters includes a potential setting of a turbine of a variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) of the engine and a potential setting of an intake throttle valve (ITV) of the engine. The controller may determine, based on the plurality of sets of potential parameters, a plurality of sets of predicted values, wherein each set of predicted values includes a predicted outlet pressure of a compressor of the VGT and a predicted temperature of an exhaust gas of the engine. The controller may determine respective scores of the plurality of sets of predicted values, and may select, based on the respective scores, a particular set of predicted values of the plurality of sets of predicted values. The controller may thereby control the turbine of the VGT and the ITV.

Abstract: A shield for a diesel exhaust fluid injector is mounted horizontally in an opening in a side wall of an exhaust gas aftertreatment system of an internal combustion engine. The diesel exhaust fluid injector configured to inject diesel exhaust fluid in a direction generally normal to the side wall into a mixer positioned in an exhaust gas stream. The shield may include a first portion extending axially and a second portion extending radially inwardly from the first portion.

Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for providing localized heating within an engine exhaust aftertreatment system. The localized heating includes DEF injector nozzle heating with a DEF dispensing system having a DEF fluid supply and a DEF injector fluidly coupled to the DEF fluid supply. The DEF injector includes a DEF injector nozzle. The DEF dispensing system further includes a DEF heater positioned in proximity to the DEF injector nozzle. The DEF heater is configured to locally heat an area surrounding the DEF injector nozzle.
