  • Patent number: 11098631
    Abstract: A NOx sensor protection system includes a flow control device forming an internal chamber with exhaust and shield gas ports and a NOx sensor. The flow control device is configured to selectively allow a flow of exhaust from an exhaust pipe to the NOx sensor when an internal combustion engine is operated with a first fuel, and to selectively direct shield gas from the shield gas port at an angle of 135° to 180° to the NOx sensor to inhibit the flow of exhaust from the exhaust pipe to the NOx sensor when the engine is operated with a second fuel.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20160194995
    Abstract: A flow mixing device includes a body having a first end, a second end, and an interior volume defined between them. An inlet plate, coupled to the first end of the body, defines at least two inlet orifices in fluid communication with the interior volume. Similarly, an outlet plate, coupled to the second end defines an outlet passage of the flow mixing device. A diffuser conduit, coupled to the inlet plate, defines an inlet passage disposed in fluid communication with the respective inlet orifices. A separator plate assembly disposed in the interior volume extends partially between the first and second ends of the body. Flow guiding vanes, coupled proximal to the second end, extend partially within the diffuser conduit.
