  1. 1. Modelling of Catalytic Monolith Reactors for Exhaust Aftertreatment

    Författare :Magnus Walander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; diesel oxidation catalyst; effective diffusivity; washcoat; EATS; gravimetric analysis; parameter estimation; synthetic catalyst activity test; Exhaust aftertreatment modelling; scanning electron microscope;

    Sammanfattning : The incomplete combustion of liquid or gaseous fuels in the internal combustion engine inherently produces several toxic emissions that need to be  removed. This is done through a series of catalytic converters, referred to as the exhaust aftertreatment system (EATS), each catalyst with its own purpose. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Studies of a Heavy-Duty Diesel Aftertreatment System Based on the NOX Storage and Reduction Technology

    Författare :Klaus Papadakis; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fuel penalty; injection parameters; DoE; design of experiments; exhaust; diesel engine; NO oxidation; simulation; modelling; oxidation catalyst; NOX trap; NOX storage and reduction; NSR; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Chemical technology and engineering; dosing strategy; system optimisation;

    Sammanfattning : The legislative limits for NOX emissions in the exhaust gas from heavy-duty diesel engines will be decreased in the European Union from today 3.5 g/kWh (Euro IV) to 2.0 g/kWh in 2008 (Euro V). In the USA and Japan a similar trend can be seen. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Catalytic Converters for Automotive Exhaust Applications. Flow Dynamics, Mass Transfer and Optimization

    Författare :Fredrik Ekström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TWC; optimization; exhaust; laboratory reactors; catalytic converter; catalysis; pressure drop; entrance effects; CFD; mass transfer; pulsations; flow distribution;

    Sammanfattning : In order to reduce emissions from vehicles powered by an internal combustion engine, an exhaust aftertreatment system is normally mounted on the engine. This aftertreatment system normally consists of one or several catalytic converters. LÄS MER

  4. 4. TOWARDS VALIDATED CATALYTIC REACTOR MODELS

    Författare :Magnus Walander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; EATS; scanning electron microscope; Exhaust aftertreatment modelling; gravimetric analysis; effective diffusivity; synthetic catalyst activity test; washcoat; diesel oxidation catalyst;

    Sammanfattning : The use of liquid fuels in the internal combustion engine inherently produces several toxic emissions that need to be removed. This is done through a series of catalytic converters, referred to as the exhaust aftertreatment system (EATS), each catalyst with its own purpose. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Multiscale Simulation Methods for Thermoelectric Generators

    Författare :Olle Högblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Exhaust gas heat recovery; subgrid modelling; CFD; Thermoelectrics; Contact resistances;

    Sammanfattning : Rising energy prices and greater environmental awareness, along with stringent emissions legislation, in the automotive industry make it possible to introduce techniques in the aftertreatment system that have previously been unprofitable. One such technique, studied here, is heat recovery from exhaust gases using thermoelectric generators. LÄS MER
