Abstract: A burner (18) is provided for use in a diesel exhaust gas treatment system (10) to treat an exhaust flow (12) from a diesel combustion process (14). The burner (18) includes an inner housing (34) defining a combustion flow path (40) to direct a first portion of the exhaust flow (12) through an ignition zone (42) wherein fuel is ignited, an outer housing (32) surrounding the inner housing (34) to define an annular bypass flow path (44) between the inner and outer housings (34, 32) to bypass a second portion of the exhaust flow (12) around the ignition zone (42), and a mixer (48) including a plurality of flow restrictor fingers (50) that extend across the bypass flow path (44) to restrict an available flow area of the bypass flow path (44), and a plurality of mixer fingers (52) having portions that extend inwardly from a location downstream from the inner housing (34).

Abstract: An injector for injecting a reagent includes an axially translatable valve member positioned within a housing. An electromagnet is positioned within the housing and includes a coil of wire positioned proximate the valve member such that the valve member moves between a seated position and an unseated position relative to an orifice in response to energizing the electromagnet. A capillary tube is provided to convert liquid reagent to an ambient pressure vapor and supply it to the orifice.
