A method for controlling heat transport within an exhaust gas system downstream of an internal combustion engine, wherein the exhaust gas system comprises at least one electrical heating device, at least one exhaust gas purification component, and at least one fluid transport device, wherein the method comprises, in an operating phase in which the internal combustion engine is not operated, determining at least one current temperature in the exhaust gas system, performing a comparison of the at least one determined current temperature or a temperature derived therefrom with a target temperature, and controlling the electrical heating device and/or the fluid transport device as a function of the result of the comparison. Furthermore, a computing unit and a computer program for carrying out such a method are proposed.
A method (200) for controlling heat transport within an exhaust gas system (120) downstream of an internal combustion engine (1), wherein the exhaust gas system (120) comprises at least one electrical heating device (14, 15), at least one exhaust gas purification component (11, 12, 13) and at least one fluid transport device (16), wherein the method (200) comprises in an operating phase in which the internal combustion engine (1) is not operated:
A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium containing instructions that when executed by a computer cause the computer to control a heat transport within an exhaust gas system (120) downstream of an internal combustion engine (1), wherein the exhaust gas system (120) comprises at least one electrical heating device (14, 15), at least one exhaust gas purification component (11, 12, 13) and at least one fluid transport device (16), wherein the internal combustion engine (1) includes an operating phase in which the internal combustion engine (1) is not operated, by:
