Review research coming directly from the mobility engineers with SAE International ‘s technical papers published at the 2022 WCX World Congress Experience.
Various techniques are constantly being devised to accelerate model generation leading to shorter product development cycle. This work proposes and implements a reduced synthetic gas bench (SGB) test protocol for a commercial Pt-Pd diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) that can be used to develop global reaction kinetics. The kinetics thus developed were implemented in a 1D model to predict DOC emissions accurately over a wide operating window. Hydrocarbons (HCs) in the exhaust were categorized as Propylene (C3H6) representing partially oxidized hydrocarbons and n-Decane (C10H22) representing unburnt fuel. Test protocols were defined using the order of inhibition of the various species present in the exhaust, namely, CO, NOx (NO+NO2) and HC for the specific reaction under consideration. The oxidation reactions for CO and HCs were found to be inhibited competitively by CO and HCs; both the NOx species inhibited these reactions to the same extent.
