Zusammenfassung:A method of controlling an exhaust gas temperature at the inlet of a particulate filter located in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine. The method controls the exhaust gas temperature using at least a post-injection (PostQ), whose quantity is estimated as function of an exhaust gas volumetric flowrate. The post-injection quantity may be the sum of a proportional, an integral and a derivative, each based on the exhaust gas volumetric flowrate, and a temperature error between a set point of the exhaust gas temperature and a measured temperature at the filter inlet. A maximum and/or minimum post-injection quantity in a closed loop control is a product of first and second contributes, which are functions of the volumetric flowrate and temperature at the filter inlet respectively.
