The exhaust is takenfrom a diesel engine of 6 kW under no load conditions. Thecharacteristic behavior of a pulse energized dielectric barrierdischarge reactor in the diesel exhaust treatment is reported. TheNOx removal was not significant (36/100) when the reactor without anypacking was used.展开更多

In this approach, relevant conversion reactions were studied in 1D model, and the parame- ters obtained in this way were transferred to 3D simulations. According to the results of the study, the conver- sion of NO and NO2 increased with the increase in monolith solid temperature. With the increase in the ratio of NO2/NOx the conversion of NO, NO2 and NOx increased resulting in maximum reduction of NOxat the ratio of 1; beyond this ratio, the conversion of NO2 and NOx decreased; however, NO continued to be converted till the ratio was 1.8. The conversion of NOx decreased with the increase in space velocity.展开更多
