Abstract: An exhaust gas aftertreatment device for a motor vehicle has an exhaust pipe and a mixing chamber arranged in the exhaust pipe to mix an exhaust gas stream with a reducing agent which can be introduced into the mixing chamber by a dosing device. The mixing chamber has a wall which is on the input side as viewed in a main flow direction of the exhaust gas stream through the exhaust pipe and in which a first inlet for the exhaust gas is formed. The first inlet extends in some regions in a lateral surface region of the input-side wall such that exhaust gas entering the mixing chamber through the first inlet can be set in a rotating motion inside the mixing chamber. The dosing device has an outlet device where a longitudinal axis of the outlet device is inclined towards the main flow direction of the exhaust gas stream.

Abstract: An exhaust gas treatment device includes an exhaust gas guide element which has an exhaust gas conduit. A first flow separation element is disposed in the exhaust gas conduit that divides the exhaust gas conduit into a first partial conduit and a second partial conduit. The first flow separation element has a first conduit area. A second flow separation element is disposed in the second partial conduit. The second flow separation element divides the second partial conduit into a first sub-conduit, a second sub-conduit, and a third sub-conduit. The second flow separation element has a second conduit area which is cylindrical or expands in a flow direction. The first conduit area of the first flow separation element expands along an injection direction of a reductant.

Abstract: A method for operating a reducing agent supply system for supplying an exhaust aftertreatment system of a motor vehicle is provided. In normal metering operation of the reducing agent supply system an at least approximately continuous air stream and a pulsed reducing agent stream are produced and are released at least partially via the nozzle into the exhaust line. In a cleaning operation for cleaning the reducing agent supply system an air stream formed from a number of air stream pulses and a reducing agent stream formed from a number of reducing agent stream pulses are produced and supplied to the nozzle means. The method can be used in particular in supply systems in which aqueous urea solution is used as reducing agent.
