Abstract: A combustion-electric propulsion system includes an alternator, an engine control module, and an electric aftertreatment component. The alternator is configured to receive a rotational input from a driveshaft and to utilize the rotational input to generate electric energy. The engine control module is configured to receive an input. The input corresponds to a drive command or a brake command. The engine control module is configured to enter an idle mode while not receiving the drive command or the brake command. The electric aftertreatment component is configured to treat exhaust. The electric aftertreatment component includes a plurality of resistance elements that are electrically communicable with the alternator. The alternator is configured to selectively transmit the electric energy to the plurality of resistance elements when in the idle mode such that the plurality of resistance elements heat at least one of the exhaust and the electric aftertreatment component.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an engine load module structured to detect an engine operating state of the engine and generate an engine status report; a timing module structured to receive the engine status report and generate a cylinder request after the engine has been in a certain engine operating state for a certain period of time; and a cylinder module structured to receive the cylinder request and generate a cylinder command to be sent to the engine to deactivate a portion of combustion cylinders based on the engine operating state existing for the certain period of time.

Abstract: A system and method for regeneration of an aftertreatment component are described. The disclosed method can employ any one or combination of operating modes that obtain a target condition of the exhaust gas to support or initiate regeneration of the aftertreatment device.

Abstract: An exhaust aftertreatment system for treating exhaust flow from an internal combustion engine, and associated method, allows for independent control of exhaust flow through plural exhaust legs of the exhaust aftertreatment system. The independent control of exhaust flow is carried out by adjusting a valve positioned in each the exhaust legs based on a value of a signal generated by a flow measurement device positioned along at least one of the exhaust legs. The valves can be adjusted to force a target flow in a exhaust leg, relative flow among exhaust legs, exhaust temperature in an exhaust leg, exhaust backpressure and/or imbalance within the exhaust legs.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for managing combustion in an internal combustion engine that includes an operating condition module configured to determine an operating load of an internal combustion engine. The internal combustion engine can includes multiple banks of cylinders. The apparatus further includes a cylinder bank control module configured to select at least one bank of cylinders of the multiple banks of cylinders to be operational based on the determined operating load of the engine. The apparatus also includes a cylinder bank command module configured to generate a cylinder bank command based on a cylinder bank control instruction received from the cylinder bank control module, the cylinder bank control instruction comprising the selection of the at least one operational bank of cylinders.
