The implementation of tight vehicle emission standards has forced manufactures to use aftertreatment systems extensively. In addition to pollutant emissions abatement, these devices have a noticeable impact on the wave pattern. This fact affects the muffler design criteria. All monolithic aftertreatment devices produces a damping effect because of the honeycomb structure and the narrow channels. However,...
Diesel oxidation catalysts and diesel particulate filters are standard aftertreatment systems in Diesel engines which are traditionally placed downstream of the turbine. However, pre-turbo aftertreatment configurations are being approached as a way to improve the aftertreatment performance in terms of light-off and passive regeneration. This exhaust line architecture can also benefit fuel economy...
This paper corresponds to the second part of a work devoted to analyse the impact of the pre-turbo aftertreatment configuration on the performance of a single stage turbocharged Diesel engine. This second part focuses on the analysis of the engine response under transient operating conditions. To address the causes and effects of the change in engine response several types of transient processes consisting...
The soot loading process in wall-flow DPFs (diesel particulate filters) affects the substrate structure depending on the filtration regime and produces the increase of pressure drop. Deep bed filtration regime produces the decrease of the porous wall permeability because of the soot particulates deposition inside it. Additionally, a layer of soot particulates grows on the porous wall surface when...
Heat transfer in wall-flow monoliths has gained in interest because of the widespread adoption of these systems by automotive industry to fulfil soot emission regulations and the importance of heat exchange on the regeneration process control to avoid damaging the monolith. This paper presents a heat transfer model for wall-flow diesel particulate filters coupled with an unsteady compressible flow...
