Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Close-coupled selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems are one method to deal with tightening emission legislation for NO x in internal combustion engines. Due to smaller mixing sections and at unfavourable boundary conditions, however, urea-water solution (UWS) droplets can impact on the SCR catalyst itself. To investigate this phenomenon further, this work develops a modeling capability of this process. Established mechanism for NH 3 -SCR and HNCO hydrolysis from literature is integrated into DETCHEM CHANNEL and a 2D COMSOL model to simulate the influence in the SCR Channel. Simulations are validated against end-of-pipe experiments from literature and spatially resolved concentration profiles from a hot gas test rig with very good agreement. Finally, a channel simulation is coupled with a model to describe the catalytic decomposition of an urea droplet. The coupled simulation is able to simulate the influence of UWS droplet impact onto a catalyst channel. Fast droplet decomposition causes a peak in NH 3 and HNCO in the single channel and thus increases NO x conversion. However, the overall uniformity and efficiency are decreased, which is why droplet impact on the catalyst should be strictly avoided.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
