Abstract:
A method for causing exhaust gas flow to flow at least 270 degrees in a first direction about a perforated tube using a baffle plate having a main body with a plurality of flow-through openings and a plurality of louvers positioned adjacent to the flow-through openings. The method includes deflecting a first portion of the exhaust gas flow with the main body of the baffle plate. The method also includes allowing a second portion of the exhaust gas flow to flow through the flow-through openings of the baffle plate. The method also deflects the second portion of the exhaust gas flow at a downstream side of the main body with the louvers hereby causing the second portion of the exhaust gas flow to flow in the first direction about the perforated tube.

Claim (Index 1):
A dosing and mixing arrangement comprising:\n a main body extending along a length between first and second opposite ends of the main body, the main body defining a longitudinal axis extending between the first and second ends, the main body also defining an interior accessible through an inlet; an outlet pipe extending through the main body at a location adjacent the second end of the main body, the outlet pipe extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the main body; a mixing region disposed within the interior of the main body, the mixing region including a perforated conduit that extends transverse to the longitudinal axis of the main body, the mixing region also including a flow path extending around the perforated conduit and leading into the perforated conduit; and a baffle arrangement disposed within the interior of the main body, the baffle arrangement defining a first entrance to the flow path, the baffle arrangement also defining a second entrance to the flow path, the second entrance being spaced along the flow path from the first entrance.
