Abstract

An aftertreatment system includes a particulate filter configured to receive exhaust gas from an engine and a controller that measures an actual pressure drop across the particulate filter, determines an expected total ash accumulation rate in the particulate filter based on a current duty cycle of the engine, determines an expected pressure drop across the particulate filter based on the expected total ash accumulation rate, compares the expected pressure drop with the actual pressure drop, and determines whether an oil consumption rate in the engine is abnormal based on the comparison.
