Mitigation of diesel emission fluid (DEF) deposition in exhaust system for engine

An exhaust system 24 for an engine includes an exhaust conduit 26, a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) device 32 in the exhaust conduit 26, and a diesel emission fluid (DEF) system 34 which includes a DEF delivery controller 60 structured to receive a condition signal indicative of a DEF depositio...

Zusammenfassung:An exhaust system 24 for an engine includes an exhaust conduit 26, a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) device 32 in the exhaust conduit 26, and a diesel emission fluid (DEF) system 34 which includes a DEF delivery controller 60 structured to receive a condition signal indicative of a DEF deposition risk condition in the exhaust system 24, and to command an increased heat energy output of a preheater 42 to preheat DEF to be admitted into the exhaust conduit 26, such that a temperature of the DEF is increased to a deposition-mitigation temperature; Related methodology and control logic is also disclosed.
