  • Patent number: 9903247
    Abstract: A system for apportioning reductant dosing amounts in multi-doser architectures includes an engine, an aftertreatment system in fluid communication with the engine, and a controller. The aftertreatment system includes a first doser configured to dose reductant into a first decomposition reaction member and a second doser configured to dose reductant into a second decomposition reaction member. The controller receives engine operating conditions and determines a total reductant amount based on the engine operating conditions. The controller also apportions the total reductant amount into a first apportioned reductant amount based on a first maximum reductant dosing amount for the first doser and a second apportioned reductant amount based on a second maximum reductant dosing amount for the second doser. The controller outputs a first apportioned reductant dosing command to the first doser and a second apportioned reductant dosing command to the second doser.

  • Patent number: 9816421
    Abstract: An exhaust elbow includes an upstream sidewall defining an upstream portion of the exhaust elbow, a downstream sidewall defining a downstream portion of the exhaust elbow, and a deflector. The upstream portion is configured to receive an upstream exhaust gas. The deflector is coupled to the upstream sidewall of the exhaust elbow upstream and is configured to deflect a portion of the upstream exhaust gas received by the upstream portion of the exhaust elbow away from a region of an interior of the exhaust elbow into which an injected reductant from a dosing module is injected. The deflector may reduce and/or prevent formation of reductant deposits on a downstream sidewall. In some implementations, an exhaust assisted flow separator may also be included to direct a portion of the upstream exhaust gas received by the upstream portion of the exhaust elbow through a dosing opening.
