Increase aftertreatment temperature during light load operation

A system of a vehicle, the system comprising:

• a controller including at least one processor and a memory storing instructions therein that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the controller to:
• determine that at least one cylinder of a first cylinder bank of an engine is active;
• determine that at least one cylinder of a second cylinder bank of the engine is inactive;
• receive an inlet temperature regarding a selective catalytic reduction system;
• compare the inlet temperature to a temperature setpoint;
• and
• adjust at least one of a first exhaust manifold pressure setpoint for the first cylinder bank or a second exhaust manifold pressure setpoint for the second cylinder bank based on the comparison.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer readable instructions embodied therein that, when executed by one or more processors of a system, cause operations comprising:

• determining that at least one cylinder of a first cylinder bank of an engine is active;
• determine that at least one cylinder of a second cylinder bank of the engine is inactive;
• receiving an inlet temperature of a selective catalytic reduction system;
• comparing the inlet temperature to a temperature setpoint;
• and
• adjusting at least one of a first exhaust manifold pressure setpoint for the first cylinder bank or a second exhaust manifold pressure setpoint for the second cylinder bank based on the comparison.
