  1. 1. Particulate Flows in Aftertreatment Systems

    Författare :Henrik Ström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling; Computational fluid dynamics; Exhaust gas aftertreatment; Particulate matter; Multiphase flow; Particulate flow;

    Sammanfattning : Emissions from internal combustion engines contain many components that have a detrimental effect on the environment and on human health, such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM). In addition, the final product of any combustion of fossil fuel - carbon dioxide (CO2) - contributes to global warming. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Characterization of Carbon Oxidation Kinetics for Particulate Matter Reduction Technologies

    Författare :Carolin Ohlson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Heterogeneous catalysis; Carbon – catalyst interaction; Soot oxidation; Particulate filter; Carbon oxidation; Global kinetics; Regeneration; Particulate matter oxidation; DPF;

    Sammanfattning : Transport related emissions of particulate matter (PM) represent a significant health risk and are therefore strictly regulated in most developed countries. An efficient technique to reduce emissions of combustion particles is to capture the particles in a filter, which must be subsequently regenerated by oxidation of the carbonaceous fraction of the PM.

  3. 3. Energy Efficient Air Quality Solutions for Vehicle Cabins

    Författare :Dixin Wei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; climate system; private car; measurements; particulate matters; CO2; simulations; air quality; air filter; UFP; filter status; energy use; vehicle cabin;

    Sammanfattning : Maintaining a good air quality level is essential for reducing potential health risks for human beings. Vehicle cabin is one common environment where people spend increasing amount of time in modern societies. It’s an environment challenged by elevated pollutants from surrounding traffics, especially small particles like PM2. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Particulate Emissions Associated with Diesel Engine Oil Consumption

    Författare :Petter Tornehed; Ulf Olofsson; Gordon E. Andrews; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Lubrication oil; Particulate emission; Particulate matter PM ; Oil consumption; Diesel engine; Mechanical engineering; Maskinteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Particulate emissions from diesel engines have been a key issue for diesel engine developers in recent decades. Their work has succeeded in reducing the exhaust particles from the combustion of fuel, which has led to increasing interest in the contribution of particulates from lubrication oil. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Multiscale methods for the fundamental understanding of diesel soot mitigation

    Författare :Carl Justin Kamp; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nanofabrication; Catalyst; Soot; Aftertreatment; Carbon; Particulate Matter; Oxidation; Ash; Diesel Particulate Filter;

    Sammanfattning : Current regulations for diesel exhaust emissions cannot be met by engine improvements alone, and for this reason the diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a widely used aftertreatment component for the control of diesel particulate matter (PM). The DPF functions by trapping PM and destroying it by oxidation. LÄS MER
