The current technology relates to filter media configurations where the filter media has a surface with a treatment that increases the roll off angle of the surface for a 50 μL water droplet when the surface is immersed in toluene. Some example filter media have a fluted configuration, and some example filter media have multiple layers. Filter media having multiple layers can be single facer media, for example, where one layer is planar and another layer is fluted.

Filter media configurations

Pleated filtration media, filtration media packs, and filtration elements containing projections are disclosed. The pleated filtration media includes projections on at least one surface, the projections configured to engage adjacent media sheets so as to reduce masking of the media. The pleated media and media pleat packs contain protrusions on the surface of the media. These protrusions are three dimensional structures that are on the surface of the media and are provided by forming the protrusion directly in the filtration media or applying structures, such as adhesive beads, or onto one or both faces of the media. Elongation of the adhesive bead can facilitate greater separation of the adjacent faces of pleated media if desired. These protrusions, also referred to herein as projections or dimples, can either contact each other or contact flat media and keep adjacent media faces from becoming in intimate contact with each other.

Filtration media, filter packs, and filter elements with protrusions

The present disclosure relates to filtration media packs, filter elements, and methods for manufacturing filtration media packs and filter elements. The present disclosure is directed to filtration media packs having alternating first media sheet and second media sheet secured together and forming a first flow face and a second flow face, wherein the first media sheet and the second media sheet provide a first separation or gap therebetween as a result of the presence of a first plurality of protrusions or bosses extending from at least one of the first media sheet or the second media sheet, and a second separation or gap therebetween as a result of a second plurality of protrusions or bosses extending from at least one of the first media sheet or the second media sheet, and the media pack being closed to passage of unfiltered fluid therethrough from the first flow face to the second flow face or from the second flow face to the first flow face without filtering passage through the first media sheet or the second media sheet.

An exhaust treatment system includes an exhaust conduit for conveying exhaust gases from an engine of a vehicle. An aftertreatment device is disposed in the exhaust conduit. A flow device is disposed upstream of the aftertreatment device. The flow device includes a base having a first surface and an oppositely disposed second surface. The base defines a plurality of openings. A plurality of flow deflectors is engaged to the base at the plurality of openings. Each flow deflector includes a first deflector that extends outwardly from the first surface of the base and a second deflector that extends outwardly from the second surface of the base. The first and second deflectors define a passage. Flow of exhaust gases through the passage cause exhaust gases to swirl about a longitudinal axis of the exhaust conduit.

Flow device for exhaust treatment system

The present disclosure relates to a device for mounting an injector to an exhaust pipe. The device includes an injector mounting structure having an exterior surface configured for mounting the injector. The injector mounting structure also includes an interior surface arrangement defining an interior volume and a port for allowing the injector to inject a reductant into the interior volume. The interior surface arrangement is configured to prevent swirling of exhaust within the interior volume.

Injector mounting configuration for an exhaust treatment system

An exhaust aftertreatment system for diesel engines includes a filtration station, a NOx reduction station, a temperature sensor, a pressure data generator, a NOx sensor, a reductant dispenser, and a controller. The filtration station filters particulate material from the exhaust. The NOx reduction station reduces NOx concentration in the exhaust. The temperature sensor generates first data that is representative of a temperature of the exhaust. The pressure data generator generates second data that is indicative of a pressure differential across a control volume that is located at the NOx reduction station. The control volume includes at least one catalyzed substrate. The NOx sensor generates third data that is representative of the NOx concentration in the exhaust. The reductant dispenser dispenses reductant into the exhaust. The controller controls a dosing rate of the reductant dispenser. The controller uses the first, second, and third data to determine the dosing rate.
