Exhaust Gas After-Treatment Device With Pressurized Shielding

摘要

An exhaust gas after-treatment device has a body containing an after-treatment element and a shield that substantially encloses the outer surface of the after-treatment device. The shield is coupled to the exhaust gas outlet of the after-treatment device such that at least a portion of the exhaust gas exiting the after-treatment device is conducted into the space between the outer surface of the after-treatment device and the shield.
