Methods and systems for an exhaust system
Methods and systems are provided for an exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) device and an air delivery system. In one example, a system includes an exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) device with a bypass arranged upstream of a catalyst and an air delivery system configured to flow air upstream of the EGHR device.
1. A system, comprising:
an exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) device with a bypass arranged upstream of a catalyst;
an air delivery system configured to flow air upstream of the EGHR device; and
a controller comprising instructions stored on non-transitory memory thereof that when executed enable the controller to:
adjust one or more of a position of a bypass valve of the EGHR device and a position of an air flow valve of the air delivery system in response to one or more of a catalyst temperature, an engine load, and a cabin heating request; and
close the bypass valve and close the air flow valve in response to the engine load being greater than a threshold load.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein an outlet of the air delivery system is arranged between an engine and the EGHR device.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the air delivery system comprises a valve and a pump.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the controller to open the bypass valve and open the air flow valve in response to the catalyst temperature being less than a lower threshold catalyst temperature.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the controller to close the bypass valve and open the air flow valve in response to a cabin heating request being greater than a threshold cabin heating request.
6. A system, comprising:
an engine coupled to an intake passage and an exhaust passage;
an exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) device arranged in the exhaust passage;
a catalyst arranged downstream of the EGHR device relative to a direction of exhaust gas flow;
a bypass passage comprising an inlet between the engine and the EGHR device and an outlet between the EGHR device and the catalyst;
a bypass valve;
an air delivery system comprising an air flow valve adjacent to an outlet coupled to the exhaust passage; and
a controller comprising instructions stored on non-transitory memory thereof that when executed enable the controller to:
adjust a position of one or more of the bypass valve and the air flow valve based on one or more of a catalyst temperature, an exhaust gas temperature, and engine load, and a cabin heating request.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein an inlet of the air delivery system is coupled to the intake passage.
8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the outlet of the air delivery system is coupled to the exhaust passage at a location upstream of the bypass valve relative to the direction of exhaust gas flow.
9. The system of claim 6 , wherein a pump is arranged in the air delivery system between the intake passage and the air flow valve.
10. The system of claim 6 , wherein the instructions further cause the controller to adjust the bypass valve to a closed position and the air flow valve to an open position in response to the catalyst temperature being less than a lower threshold catalyst temperature.
11. The system of claim 6 , wherein the instructions further cause the controller to adjust the bypass valve to an open position and the air flow valve to an open position in response to the cabin heating request being greater than a threshold cabin heating request.
12. The system of claim 6 , wherein the instructions further cause the controller to adjust the bypass valve to an open position and the air flow valve to a closed position in response to the engine load being greater than a threshold engine load.
13. The system of claim 6 , wherein the bypass valve and the air flow valve are multi-position valves.
14. A method, comprising:
adjusting an air flow from an air delivery system directly to an exhaust passage comprising an exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) device upstream of a catalyst relative to a direction of exhaust gas flow, wherein the air flow is directed to a location of the exhaust passage directly between an engine and the EGHR device, wherein the air flow is delivered to a location directly upstream of the EGHR device, and wherein there are no intervening components arranged between the engine and the EGHR device.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein adjusting the air flow adjusts an exhaust gas temperature, wherein the exhaust gas temperature is further adjusted by flowing exhaust gas to or bypassing exhaust gas around the EGHR device via a bypass valve and a bypass passage.
16. The method of claim 14 , wherein adjusting the air flow comprises adjusting a position of an air flow valve of the air delivery system.
