Abstract: Systems and method for detecting a concentration of a gas in a gas stream are disclosed. A method includes receiving a gas stream including a carrier gas and a processing gas. Bridge signals of a mass flow sensor are used to produce a processing-gas concentration signal and a gas-stream mass flow rate signal. The gas stream is controlled so a mass flow rate of the processing gas equals a processing-gas-setpoint signal. In some variations, the processing-gas-concentration signal is produced using an upstream temperature of the gas stream and a bridge-derived temperature.

Abstract: Mass flow controllers and control valves are disclosed. A control valve includes a poppet including a plurality of vertical flow channels, and the control valve also includes an orifice element that includes a plurality of vertical flow channels extending from a bottom surface of the orifice element, through the orifice element, to a top surface of the orifice element. The vertical flow channels of the orifice element are axially misaligned with the vertical flow channels of the poppet to prevent gas from flowing through the orifice element when the gap between the top surface of the poppet and the bottom surface of the orifice element is closed.

Abstract: A decomposition reactor for an exhaust system includes an exterior component defining an internal volume and having an inlet and an outlet with the inlet and outlet are formed on a same side of the exterior component. A flow divider is positioned within the internal volume and defines a thermal management chamber and a main flow chamber. A first flow path of exhaust flows from the inlet into the main flow chamber to mix with dosed, and a second flow path of exhaust flows from the inlet into the thermal management chamber to control a temperature of a portion of the flow divider. In some implementations, one or more swirling diverters can be coupled to the flow divider and positioned proximate the outlet of the exterior component to impart a vortical motion to a combined reductant and exhaust gas flow exiting out the outlet.

Abstract: Mass flow control systems and methods for controlling the mass flow rate of a gas through a primary conduit are disclosed. One mass flow control system includes a primary conduit for directing a flow of a gas and an adjustment system configured to divert a portion of the gas from the primary conduit to a secondary conduit and provide an adjustment signal that changes when a composition of the gas changes. A mass flow controller is operatively coupled to the primary conduit to control a primary flow rate of the gas. The mass flow controller includes a valve to control the primary flow rate of the gas and a control loop configured to receive the adjustment signal and control the valve to provide the primary flow rate of the gas at a set point.

Abstract: Gas insensitive systems and methods for controlling the mass flow rate of a gas through a primary conduit are disclosed. The method includes producing, in a secondary conduit, an assessment flow that has a changing pressure; calculating a first measure of a flow rate of the assessment flow based upon a rate-of-change of the pressure of the assessment flow; and measuring the assessment flow with a mass flow meter that is affected by the composition of the gas to produce a second measure of the assessment flow. An adjustment signal is generated based upon a difference between the first measure and the second measure, and a gas-corrected flow signal is generated by adjusting a measured-flow signal of a mass flow controller with the adjustment signal. The gas-corrected flow signal is used by the mass flow controller to control a flow rate of the gas through the primary conduit.
