Book Control of Diesel Engine Urea Selective Catalytic Reduction Systems

Download or read book Control of Diesel Engine Urea Selective Catalytic Reduction Systems written by Ming-Feng Hsieh and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: A systematic nonlinear control methodology for urea-SCR systems applicable for light-to-heavy-duty Diesel engine platforms in a variety of on-road, off-road, and marine applications is developed and experimentally validated in this dissertation. Urea selective catalytic reduction (urea-SCR) systems have been proved of being able to reduce more than 90% of Diesel engine-out NOx emissions and have been favored by the automotive industry in recent years. Urea-SCR systems utilize ammonia, converted from 32.5% aqueous urea solution (AdBlue) injected at upstream of the SCR catalyst, as the reductant for NOx reductions. Because ammonia is considered a hazardous material, urea injection should be systematically controlled to avoid undesired tailpipe ammonia slip while achieving a sufficient level of SCR NOx reduction. The novelty of the control methodology is to regulate the ammonia storage distribution along the axial direction of a SCR catalyst to a staircase profile and thus to simultaneously realize high NOx reduction efficiency and low ammonia emissions. To achieve this control objective, several relevant subjects are studied, including: 1) aftertreatment system control-oriented modeling, 2) online NOx sensor ammonia cross-sensitivity correction, 3) SCR catalyst ammonia coverage ratio estimation, as well as 4) adaptive urea dosing controller design. A unique SCR system which consists of a urea injector and two SCR catalysts connected in-series with several NOx and NH3 sensors is used for the study of the proposed urea-SCR control methodology. Such a SCR system is integrated with a state-of-the-art Diesel engine and aftertreatment system (DOC-DPF). The US06 test cycle experimental results show the proposed control methodology, in comparison to a conventional control strategy, is capable of improving the SCR NOx reduction by 63% and reducing the tailpipe ammonia slip amount by 74%. The contributions of this research to the art include: 1) A novel, efficient, and generalizable urea-SCR dosing control methodology; 2) Diesel engine-DOC-DPF NO/NO2 ratio control-oriented models and observer-based estimations; 3) SCR catalyst ammonia coverage ratio estimation methods; 4) An online correction approach for NOx sensor ammonia cross-sensitivity elimination; and 5) An improved SCR control-oriented model.

Book Modeling and Control of a Hydrocarbon Selective Catalytic Reduction System for Diesel Exhaust

Download or read book Modeling and Control of a Hydrocarbon Selective Catalytic Reduction System for Diesel Exhaust written by Oliver Rivera and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diesel vehicles are continually being regulated each year by tighter restrictions on exhaust emissions. Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) form one of the more difficult emissions to control. Urea based selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx emissions is an evolving technology that has seen widespread implementation on over the road vehicles. However, this technology requires an on-board reductant to function properly. Hydrocarbon based SCR (HC-SCR) technology eliminates the need for an additional on-board liquid by using diesel fuel as the reductant. A review of aftertreatment systems including HC-SCR is provided in this work. This review is followed by an experimental investigation of an HC-SCR aftertreatment system fitted to a marine diesel engine. A model of the HC-SCR outlet NOx concentration is developed and validated for several operating conditions. A sensitivity analysis of the model parameters is performed, demonstrating the most influential model parameters. A controller is successfully implemented in simulation and in the laboratory environment.

Book Characterization of Water Injection and Urea SCR Systems for NOx Reduction in Diesel Engines

Download or read book Characterization of Water Injection and Urea SCR Systems for NOx Reduction in Diesel Engines written by Eric R. Snyder and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Diesel engines offer significant advantages over spark-ignited engines in terms of peak torque production, carbon monoxide (CO) emissions, hydrocarbon (HC) emissions, and fuel consumption (and associated carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions known to cause the greenhouse effect). However, lean exhaust conditions render conventional three-way catalysts ineffective, making nitrogen oxide (NOx) reduction a considerable challenge. With increasing environmental concerns and stringent pending regulation of diesel exhaust emissions, urea-Selective Catalytic Reduction (urea-SCR) has emerged as a potential technology pathway to meet US 2007/2010 and Euro IV/V NOx emissions criterion. This technology uses ammonia (NH3) generated from aqueous urea as the NOx reducing agent. Water injection in the intake system has also demonstrated the potential for significant reductions in engine-out NOx emissions.

Book Urea for SCR based NOx Control Systems and Potential Impacts to Ground Water Resources

Download or read book Urea for SCR based NOx Control Systems and Potential Impacts to Ground Water Resources written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the key challenges facing manufacturers of diesel engines for light- and heavy-duty vehicles is the development of technologies for controlling emissions of nitrogen oxides, In this regard, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems represent control technology that can potentially achieve the NOx removal efficiencies required to meet new U.S. EPA standards. SCR systems rely on a bleed stream of urea solution into exhaust gases prior to catalytic reduction. While urea's role in this emission control technology is beneficial, in that it supports reduced NOx emissions, it can also be an environmental threat to ground water quality. This would occur if it is accidentally released to soils because once in that environmental medium, urea is subsequently converted to nitrate--which is regulated under the U.S. EPA's primary drinking water standards. Unfortunately, nitrate contamination of ground waters is already a significant problem across the U.S. Historically, the primary sources of nitrate in ground waters have been septic tanks and fertilizer applications. The basic concern over nitrate contamination is the potential health effects associated with drinking water containing elevated levels of nitrate. Specifically, consumption of nitrate-contaminated water can cause a blood disorder in infants known as methemoglobinemia.

Book Assessment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light Duty Vehicles

Download or read book Assessment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light Duty Vehicles written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-06-03 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various combinations of commercially available technologies could greatly reduce fuel consumption in passenger cars, sport-utility vehicles, minivans, and other light-duty vehicles without compromising vehicle performance or safety. Assessment of Technologies for Improving Light Duty Vehicle Fuel Economy estimates the potential fuel savings and costs to consumers of available technology combinations for three types of engines: spark-ignition gasoline, compression-ignition diesel, and hybrid. According to its estimates, adopting the full combination of improved technologies in medium and large cars and pickup trucks with spark-ignition engines could reduce fuel consumption by 29 percent at an additional cost of $2,200 to the consumer. Replacing spark-ignition engines with diesel engines and components would yield fuel savings of about 37 percent at an added cost of approximately $5,900 per vehicle, and replacing spark-ignition engines with hybrid engines and components would reduce fuel consumption by 43 percent at an increase of $6,000 per vehicle. The book focuses on fuel consumption-the amount of fuel consumed in a given driving distance-because energy savings are directly related to the amount of fuel used. In contrast, fuel economy measures how far a vehicle will travel with a gallon of fuel. Because fuel consumption data indicate money saved on fuel purchases and reductions in carbon dioxide emissions, the book finds that vehicle stickers should provide consumers with fuel consumption data in addition to fuel economy information.

Book SAE 2007 08 0107  A Study on the NOx Reduction of Urea Selective Catalytic Reduction  SCR  System in a Heavy Duty Diesel Engine

Download or read book SAE 2007 08 0107 A Study on the NOx Reduction of Urea Selective Catalytic Reduction SCR System in a Heavy Duty Diesel Engine written by Hoin Kang and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NOx emission is one of the problems of diesel engines. SCR is well known to be effective for the reduction of NOx emission. Among many types of SCR, Urea-SCR is known as the most stable. Therefore, this research focuses to evaluate a performance of urea-SCR system in a heavy-duty diesel engine. At first, urea injection system is developed and optimum injection condition is observed. Numerical model of above condition applies to simulation calculation using FLUENT, CFD code. The simulation results determine experimental method on the engine test. Therefore, the aqueous urea solution is injected to reversing direction of exhaust gas into elbow exhaust pipe. Optimal quantity of a reducing agent is estimated by using accurate programming technique under different engine loads and speeds. Furthermore, emission variation between with SCR and without SCR is compared and performance of urea-SCR system is evaluated. This research may provide the fundamental data for the practical use of urea-SCR in future.
