Exhaust gas aftertreatment system, and internal combustion engine with exhaust gas aftertreatment system
An exhaust gas aftertreatment system with an exhaust gas inlet, at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements, and a flow chamber. The exhaust gas inlet, the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements, and the flow chamber are arranged relative to one another and fluidically connected together such that exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust gas inlet into the flow chamber can be distributed to the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements. The exhaust gas passes through at least one first of the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements along a first flow direction, and the exhaust gas passes through at least one second of the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements along a second flow direction, wherein the first flow direction and the second flow direction are oriented at least diagonally to each other, preferably anti-parallel to each other.
1. An exhaust gas aftertreatment system, comprising:
an exhaust gas inlet;
at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements;
a flow guiding chamber,
wherein the exhaust gas inlet, the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements and the flow guiding chamber are arranged relative to one another and fluid-connected to one another so that exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust gas inlet into the flow guiding chamber is dividable between the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements, wherein the exhaust gas passes through at least a first of the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements along a first direction of flow, wherein the exhaust gas passes through at least a second of the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements along a second direction of flow, wherein the first direction of flow and the second direction of flow are oriented at least obliquely to one another; and
an exhaust gas aftertreatment container which has the exhaust gas inlet, the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements and the flow guiding chamber, wherein the exhaust gas aftertreatment container has at least one interchangeable plug-in module which has the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements which are arranged spaced apart from one another, as seen in a longitudinal direction of the interchangeable plug-in module, wherein the interchangeable plug-in module has an inflow chamber between the longitudinally spaced exhaust gas aftertreatment elements, the inflow chamber being open at an edge in regions.
2. The exhaust gas aftertreatment system according to claim 1 , wherein the first direction of flow and the second direction of flow are anti-parallel to one another.
3. The exhaust gas aftertreatment system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements have in each case an exhaust gas inlet facing the flow guiding chamber, wherein a first exhaust gas inlet of a first exhaust gas aftertreatment element is arranged on a first side of the flow guiding chamber, wherein a second exhaust gas inlet of a second exhaust gas aftertreatment element is arranged on a second side of the flow guiding chamber opposite the first side.
4. The exhaust gas aftertreatment system according to claim 1 , wherein the exhaust gas aftertreatment container has plug-in receivers for interchangeable plug-in modules on precisely one outer wall or on two opposing outer walls.
5. The exhaust gas aftertreatment system according to claim 1 , wherein at least one exhaust gas aftertreatment element of the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements is formed as an SCR catalytic converter, wherein a metering device for a reducing agent is assigned to the exhaust gas inlet.
6. The exhaust gas aftertreatment system according to claim 1 , further comprising a mixing chamber arranged outside the exhaust gas aftertreatment container upstream of the exhaust gas inlet, wherein the mixing chamber is in fluid connection with the exhaust gas inlet, wherein
a) a metering device for reducing agent is assigned to the mixing chamber, and/or wherein
b) the mixing chamber has a cylindrical form and a tangentially oriented inlet opening as well as an axial exhaust gas outlet opening, and/or wherein
c) the mixing chamber has a swirl generation device for generation of a swirl in the exhaust gas flow which passes through the mixing chamber.
7. An internal combustion engine, comprising an exhaust gas aftertreatment system according to claim 1 .
