Abstract

An exhaust system for a vehicle having an internal combustion engine includes an exhaust pipe configured to receive an exhaust gas flow from the engine at a predetermined first velocity, and an exhaust gas sensor assembly coupled to the exhaust pipe and in fluid communication with an interior of the exhaust pipe to sense a predetermined constituent contained within the exhaust gas flow. The exhaust gas sensor assembly includes a sensing element disposed at least partially within a protection tube assembly having a plurality of apertures configured to receive a sensor flow (SF) portion of the exhaust gas flow. The plurality of apertures has a combined total flow area that provides a surface averaged total velocity at the sensing element to be greater than or equal to 70% of the first velocity to thereby increase a dynamic response of the exhaust gas sensor assembly.
