An exhaust gas aftertreatment system for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system has a first aftertreatment element including a first inlet region and a first outlet region, and a second aftertreatment element including a second inlet region and a second outlet region The first outlet region is connected to the second inlet region via at least one connection section, and the at least one connection section extends outside the first aftertreatment element. At least parts of the first inlet region and of the second inlet region are arranged in a common distributor housing.

Exhaust gas aftertreatment system

Directing exhaust gas around a catalyst may pre-heat the catalyst and may thereby bring the catalyst quickly in its operating temperature range. An exhaust gas treatment system for treating the exhaust gas may include a first flow path, a second flow path, and a control system. The first flow path may include a catalyst. The second flow path may be coaxially arranged in heat exchange relation with respect to the first flow path. The control system may be configured to control the flow of exhaust gas through the first flow path or the second flow path dependent upon the catalyst temperature.

Compact exhaust gas treatment system and method of operating the same

An internal combustion engine, in particular a large multi-fuel diesel internal combustion engine, and includes an SCR catalytic converter that can be bypassed, and at least one control element for switching the flow in an exhaust gas line between a first position where the SCR catalytic converter is active and a second position where the SCR catalytic converter is bypassed, and at least one flow path bypassing the SCR catalytic converter.

Internal combustion engine

An internal combustion engine having a connecting assembly for a cylinder head () includes at least one air- or gas-conducting part () that connects to at least one flow opening () of the cylinder (), in particular an exhaust manifold () or an intake manifold, and a sealing element () disposed between the air- or gas-conducting part () and the cylinder head (). In order to reduce the assembly complexity and save installation space, at least one fastening means () for the air- or gas-conducting part () is disposed spatially separate from the sealing element ().

Internal combustion engine comprising a connecting assembly for a cylinder head

An exhaust emission control device is provided which is compact in size and has favorable dispersibility of exhaust gas from a muffling structureto an oxidation catalyst. The muffling structurearranged upstream of the oxidation catalyst in a direction D of gas flow has a dispersion platefor dividing the interior of the casinginto dispersion chambersandupstream and downstream in the direction D of gas flow, respectively, and an inner pipeinserted from outside of and into the chamberand with a tip end fixed to the dispersion plateand circumferentially formed with poresandhaving diameters gradually reduced in the order in the direction D of gas flow from upstream to downstream. The dispersion platefacing the dispersion chambersandis formed with a plurality of radially-outward-larger-diametered and radially-inward-smaller-diametered poresand

Exhaust emission control device

An exhaust system including an exhaust emission control device with a post treatment unit (e.g., a selective reduction catalyst) for depuration of exhaust gas flowing therethrough is disclosed. The exhaust system includes a layout that introduces the exhaust gas into the post-treatment unit through a turnabout. An introductory part encircles an inlet end of the post-treatment unit and receives the exhaust gas through an exhaust inlet port from a direction substantially perpendicular to an axis of the selective reduction catalyst. The introduction part is formed with a first depression cambered away from the inlet end of the selective reduction catalyst and approaching toward the inlet end of the selective reduction catalyst as the first depression extends away from the exhaust inlet port and toward an introduction direction of the exhaust gas, thereby promoting uniformity of the exhaust gas flow entering the post-treatment unit.
