Abstract: A method of selective hydrocarbon injection in in-cylinder late post injection in an exhaust manifold of a diesel engine comprises providing the exhaust manifold of the diesel engine comprising a plurality of cylinders, an exhaust gas recirculation valve disposed adjacent the exhaust manifold, a diesel particulate filter disposed adjacent the exhaust manifold, an exhaust gas recirculation cooler disposed adjacent the exhaust manifold offset from the exhaust gas recirculation valve, and an engine control unit operatively connected with the diesel engine for controlling at least the plurality of cylinders. At least a first cylinder is disabled via the engine control unit to reduce post injection of hydrocarbons during regeneration of the diesel particulate filter. The diesel particulate filter is regenerated. In-cylinder late post injection of hydrocarbons is conducted during regeneration of the diesel particulate filter via cylinders other than the first cylinder.

Abstract: A method of controlling cooling flow through a coolant system of an internal combustion engine having an electronic control module, a cooling throttle, an EGR cooler, and an interstage cooler is provided. A pressure within a coolant system is determined. A temperature within the coolant system is determined. A temperature of exhaust gas exiting an EGR cooler is determined. A temperature of intake air exiting an interstage cooler is determined. A position of a cooling throttle within the coolant system is adjusted based upon at least one of the determined pressure within the coolant system, temperature within the coolant system, temperature of exhaust gas exiting the EGR cooler, and temperature of intake air exiting an interstage cooler being above respective predefined thresholds to adjust fluid flow within the coolant system.

Abstract: Methods and systems for controlling the conditions of a coolant for the cooler of an exhaust gas recirculation system are disclosed. The system determines coolant pressure at predetermined location of the cooler. The system also senses the actual temperature of the coolant at a predetermined location of the cooler. The system also determines a coolant boiling temperature at the determined coolant pressure. Using the determined coolant pressure, the system may control engine operation so as to prevent coolant from reaching boiling in the cooler. An engine derate power factor may be determined to control the amount of fuel delivered to the engine, such as reducing the amount of fuel delivered through the fuel injectors. The amount of delivered fuel may be derated until an adjusted coolant temperature falls a predetermined amount below the coolant boiling temperature.
