Abstract

An exhaust purification system of an internal combustion engine comprises a filter trapping particulate matter in exhaust gas, a differential pressure sensor detecting a differential pressure before and after the filter or a differential pressure between a pressure in the exhaust passage and an atmospheric pressure, a temperature sensor detecting a temperature of exhaust gas, and a deposition calculating part configured to calculate an amount of particulate matter deposited at the filter. The deposition calculating part is configured to calculate a first estimated value of an amount of the particulate matter based on the differential pressure, calculate a second estimated value of an amount of the particulate matter based on an amount of increase of temperature of the exhaust gas, and calculate an amount of the particulate matter based on the first estimated value and the second estimated value.
