Abstract

A system for determining a performance status of an exhaust aftertreatment system may include determining an ammonia-to-nitrogen ratio using a sample ammonia input value and a sample NOx input value. An actual NOx input value and an actual ammonia input value can be received. An emission value from may be received from a first sensor. A NOx emission estimate, an ammonia slip estimate, and an optimal ammonia storage value for a selective catalytic reduction may be determined using an iterative inefficiency calculation based, at least in part, on the actual NOx input value, the actual ammonia input value, and the ammonia-to-nitrogen ratio; and the NOx emission estimate, the ammonia slip estimate, and the optimal ammonia storage value may be outputted to a diagnostic system.
