    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Catalyst; Flow maldistribution; Transient; CFD Simulations; Reactive flows; Uniformity Index; Exhaust AfterTreatment Systems;

    Abstract : To comply with the stringent emission norms under every driving condition, including the coldstart conditions and Real Driving Emissions (RDE) tests, accurate models that capture the spatial and temporal variation of flow distribution information in Exhaust AfterTreatment Systems (EATS) are required. This study is aimed at characterizing and quantifying flow distribution in EATS under transient conditions with realistic geometry that illustrates the complex nature of the flow conditions. READ MORE
