Modeling of the Regeneration Processes in Diesel Particulate Filters

چکیده
New simulation algorithm of soot oxidation in diesel particulate filter (DPF) is proposed. Two-dimensional finite differences scheme is used for calculation of the heat transfer in DPF (macro-scale). One dimensional model for treatment of the soot oxidation process in a separate filter channel (micro-scale) is based on a new expression for the oxidation reaction rate that is a modification of the known Bissett’s equation. This expression allows consideration of the non-linear dependence of oxidation reaction rate on a reagent concentration. For cases of catalytic coating a modification of the known two-layer model is suggested. A fraction of soot that has been oxidized with the help of the catalyst is not invariable in the first layer, but it exponentially depends on the distance from a channel wall of the particle trap. Soot oxidation by O2 and/or NO2 in diesel particulate filters is investigated for various cases of non-catalytic and catalytic oxidation. The filter clogging propagation from its periphery to the center at critical temperature is described theoretically at first. A comparison between various types of DPF regeneration methods is performed by using the proposed simple simulation algorithm and appropriate computer code.

● Diesel Filter Regeneration Abstract: Diesel particulate filters capture particle emissions through a combination of surface-type and deep-bed filtration mechanisms, such as diffusional deposition, inertial d positi , or flow-line interception. Collected particulates are removed from the filter, continuously or periodically, through thermal regeneration. Diesel filters are very effective in co...
