A turbocharger for an internal combustion engine having a close coupled catalyst assembly includes a turbine housing having a toroidal-shaped low pressure exhaust gas chamber having a plurality of vanes disposed proximate the outer circumferential wall of the low pressure exhaust gas chamber. The vanes are arranged to disrupt the rotational flow of the exhaust gases as they exit the turbine housing to provide a more even flow though the catalyst element of the close coupled catalyst assembly.

Turbine outlet flow control device

Described herein is a desulfurization method for desulfurizing a SCR device treating an exhaust gas. The desulfurization method includes injecting a reductant into the exhaust gas upstream from or into the SCR device and increasing a temperature of the exhaust gas.

Method for desulfurization of selective catalytic reduction devices

An exhaust gas treatment system includes a selective catalytic reduction device (SCR); a reductant injector upstream from the SCR and configured to communicate reductant into the SCR via a conduit defined by an outer periphery, a first mixer disposed within the conduit upstream from the reductant injector, and a second mixer disposed within the conduit downstream from the reductant injector and upstream from the SCR. Each of the first mixer and the second mixer comprises a plurality of blades extending between a center region of the conduit to the conduit periphery, wherein each of the blades at least partially obstructs fluid flow through the conduit and are angled relative to a cross sectional plane of the conduit such that fluid flow is permitted between adjacent blades, and the plurality of blades form a turbulence plane defined by a plane angle measured from the two outermost blades of the turbulence plane.

Exhaust gas treatment systems utilizing a plurality of reduced-resistance mixers

A mixer includes a plurality of blades extending along a longitudinal axis. The blades are arranged in a single row, and are axially spaced from each other along a transverse axis. Each of the blades defines a window. Each of the blades includes an upstream portion, and a downstream portion. Each of the blades includes a bend at the window that forms an interior blade angle between its respective upstream portion and its respective downstream portion. The single row of the blades is arranged to include a first group of blades and a second group of blades. The interior blade angle of each of the blades in the first group faces in a first axial direction along the transverse axis. The interior blade angle of each of the blades in the second group faces in a second axial direction along the transverse axis.

Exhaust mixer for compact system

A mixer for an exhaust gas treatment system includes a support body that defines a mixing chamber. A plurality of first blades is arranged in a row, and is disposed along a transverse axis. Each of the first blades extends from an upstream edge, toward a first lateral edge surface of the mixing chamber, to a downstream edge, at a first row angle relative to the transverse axis. A plurality of second blades is arranged in a row, and is disposed along the transverse axis. Each of the second blades extends from an upstream edge, toward a second lateral edge surface of the mixing chamber, to a downstream edge, at a second row angle relative to the transverse axis. The first row angle is less than the second row angle. The row of the first blades is axially spaced from the row of the second blades.
