Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for regenerating an oxidation catalyst used in an aftertreatment system of a multifuel internal combustion engine. According to at least one aspect of the present disclosure, recirculated exhaust gas is employed to enable recovery periods in which the engine generates oxygen-depleted exhaust to desulfate and deoxidize the oxidation catalyst. In certain embodiments, the system may include an exhaust gas recirculation system with a cooler and regulation valve to introduce exhaust gas into the engine.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling operation of dual fuel internal combustion engines in response to a load shedding event are disclosed. The control techniques mitigate the amount of uncombusted gaseous fuel passing into the exhaust and/or aftertreatment system and reduce the rate at which uncombusted gaseous fuel enters the cylinders to reduce engine torque output and/or speed in response to the load shedding event.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for fuel drift estimation and compensation using exhaust oxygen levels and fresh air flow measurements. An actual fueling to the engine cylinders is determined from the exhaust oxygen level and fresh air flow to the internal combustion engine. The actual fueling is compared to an expected fueling based on the fueling command provided to the internal combustion engine. The difference between the actual fueling and expected fueling is fuel drift error attributed to changes or drift in the fuel injection system and is used to correct or compensate future fueling commands for the fuel drift.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling operation of dual fuel internal combustion engines in response to cylinder pressure based determinations are disclosed. The techniques control fuelling contributions from a first fuel source and a second fuel source to achieve desired operational outcomes in response to the cylinder pressure based determinations.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to engines with multiple cylinder banks and associated exhaust aftertreatment systems. Systems and methods are disclosed that relate to engine operations involving fuelling and throttle control for thermal management of the aftertreatment system of one cylinder bank while the other cylinder bank or banks are fuelled to satisfy a portion of the torque request to the engine that is not satisfied by the thermally managed cylinder bank.

Abstract: A system includes an internal combustion engine having a number of cylinders, with at least one of the cylinders plumbed to have a complete recycle of the exhaust gases from the cylinder. The system further includes the completely recycled cylinder having an EGR stroke cycle, and the non-recycled cylinders of the engine having an exhaust stroke cycle. The system includes the EGR stroke cycle being distinct from the exhaust stroke cycle. An amount and composition of the exhaust gases from the recycled cylinder are distinct from the amount and composition of the exhaust gases from the non-recycled cylinders, at least at certain operating conditions of the engine.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine system includes: an engine with a plurality of pistons housed in respective ones of a plurality of cylinders; an air intake system to provide air to the plurality of cylinders through respective ones of a plurality of intake valves; an exhaust system to release exhaust gas from the plurality of cylinders through respective one of a plurality of exhaust valves; an aftertreatment system to treat exhaust emission from the engine; at least one sensor to provide a sensor signal corresponding to an efficiency of the aftertreatment system; and a controller coupled to the at least one sensor and operable to regulate an internal exhaust gas recirculation operation in the cylinders when the aftertreatment system operates at less than a desired efficiency.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling an air-fuel ratio of an internal combustion engine using a ratio of cylinder pressures measured within at least one cylinder. The air-fuel ratio control system includes an electronic control module (ECM) which computes a measured cylinder pressure ratio of the cylinder pressure measured at a predetermined crank angle before top dead center and the cylinder pressure measured at a predetermined crank angle after top dead center. The measured cylinder pressure ratio is compared with an optimal cylinder pressure ratio. Based upon the results of this comparison, the ECM then determines an adjusted air-fuel ratio which would modify the measured pressure ratio to equal the optimal pressure ratio. This system controls the air-fuel ratio by measuring the quality of combustion without the need to measure the amount of air or fuel actually delivered to the engine.
