1. A method for estimating soot loading of a diesel particulate filter, comprising:
- establishing a soot loading model for estimating soot loading of a nominal diesel particulate filter;
adjusting the soot loading model for a subject filter to account for differences between the nominal filter and the subject filter; and
estimating soot loading of the subject filter using the adjusted soot loading model.

Abstract
A method for estimating soot loading of a diesel particulate filter includes establishing a soot loading model for estimating soot loading of a nominal diesel particulate filter, adjusting the soot loading model for a subject filter to account for differences between the nominal filter and the subject filter, and estimating soot loading of the subject filter using the adjusted soot loading model. An engine with a diesel particulate filter is also provided.

16. A diesel engine with an exhaust aftertreatment system, comprising:
-
a subject diesel particulate filter; a controller, the controller comprising a soot loading model for estimating soot loading of a nominal diesel particulate filter, the controller being adapted to adjust the soot loading model for the subject filter to account for differences between the nominal filter and the subject filter, and being adapted to estimate soot loading of the subject filter using the adjusted soot loading model. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
