Modelling of monolithic catalytic converters used in automotive pollution control (EN)

Simulation of monolithic catalytic converters under transient operating conditions is reported. Model equations for heat and mass transfer with chemical reaction in monolithic honeycomb catalyst were discretized by using a collocation method, and the time integration was accomplished by a third-order semi-implicit Runge-Kutta algorithm. Important aspects of the analysis are the influence of radiation upon the solution of the governing equations; the temperature distribution on the catalyst, which for the majority of the operating conditions shows a maximum at a distance from the converter inlet approximately equal to the 85% of the monolith length; the pollutant concentration profile; and the time for catalyst heating up. © 1992.
