Abstract: A mixer for an exhaust aftertreatment system is disclosed. The mixer includes a body portion that is configured to be disposed in an exhaust conduit of an exhaust aftertreatment system upstream of an exhaust aftertreatment device. The mixer also includes an airfoil portion that is disposed on the body portion and reversibly movable between a deployed position and a retracted position, wherein in the deployed position the airfoil portion provides a deployed resistance to an exhaust gas flow and in the retracted position provides a retracted resistance thereto, and the deployed resistance is greater than the retracted resistance, the body portion and airfoil portion comprising a mixer. The mixer further includes a bimetallic couple that is operatively joined to the mixer and configured to reversibly move the airfoil portion from the retracted position to the deployed position.

Abstract: The present invention provides an engine control method, which comprises: receiving an indication of the pedal position; pre-processing the indication of the pedal position to determine whether the received indication of the pedal position corresponds to the antisurge mode activation condition; in response to the received indication of the pedal position corresponding to the antisurge mode activation condition, using the boost pressure and the engine speed to look up the static control parameter lookup table to select a control parameter indicating an air flow requirement; and sending the selected control parameter to the ECU so as to control the engine using the air flow requirement indicated by said control parameter.

Abstract: A turbocharger includes a turbine wheel mounted within a turbine housing and connected to a compressor wheel by a shaft. The turbine housing defines an exhaust gas inlet connected to a volute that surrounds the turbine wheel, and an axial bore through which exhaust gas that has passed through the turbine wheel is discharged from the turbine housing. The turbine housing further defines an annular bypass passage surrounding the bore and arranged to allow exhaust gas to bypass the turbine wheel. An annular bypass valve is disposed in the bypass passage. The bypass valve comprises a fixed annular valve seat and a rotary annular valve member arranged coaxially with the valve seat. A catalyst is disposed in the annular bypass passage. The catalyst is formed of spaced-apart, undulating metal fins coated with a catalyst material and contained in a generally annular cage.
