The invention relates to a catalyst arrangement for an exhaust gas purification device of an internal combustion engine, in particular a stationary gas engine, wherein the
Catalyst arrangement along a flow direction of an exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine can be flowed through and along the flow direction comprises a plurality of catalytically active, in particular independent areas.
Modern high-performance lean-burn engines, in particular stationary gas engines, have very high power densities and efficiencies with relatively low production and maintenance costs. For this reason, gas-lean-burn engines are among the most economical power generation technologies on the market. Compared to diesel engines, pollutant emissions are also very low, whereby NOx emissions can be reduced to very low levels by internal engine emissions and emissions of CO and formaldehyde by exhaust gas catalytic measures. In the case of unburned hydrocarbons, in particular methane (CH4), however, natural gas-powered lean-burn engines have relatively high emission levels. In contrast to CO, conventional emission control devices can only implement CH4 to a very limited extent. To achieve sufficiently high conversion rates, in addition to special formulations for the active surface of the catalyst assemblies of exhaust gas purification devices, temperatures of at least about 600 eC are also required.
Since the exhaust gas temperature of modern supercharged lean-burn gas engines after an exhaust gas turbocharger is only about 300-400 eC, a CH4 active exhaust gas purification device can not be used after the exhaust gas turbocharger. In order to achieve a corresponding reaction for the conversion of unburned hydrocarbons in an exhaust gas purification device of a supercharged gas lean-burn engine, therefore, the exhaust gas purification device must be arranged in front of an exhaust gas turbine. This can be sichergestetlt that the necessary temperature for this chemical reaction is present.
In the reaction of the unburned hydrocarbons, part of the chemical energy contained therein is converted into heat by the chemical reaction. Since the reaction rate in the exhaust gas purification device is a function of temperature, the higher the temperature, the faster and more complete the reaction. Therefore, as soon as the concentration of unburned hydrocarbons exceeds a certain level, the temperature increase due to the reaction leads to an increase in the reaction rate 69202 30 / hn and thus a self-reinforcing process. The temperature continues to rise until all of the unburned hydrocarbons contained in the exhaust gas are completely converted over a very short distance. With correspondingly increased concentrations of unbrominated hydrocarbons, thermal overloading of the catalyst support or even melting of support material of the catalyst arrangements occurs locally. This effect is reinforced in the case of installation of the exhaust gas purification device in front of an exhaust gas turbine even further characterized in that the exhaust gas is under a pressure of about 3-4 bar and the energy density of the chemical energy contained in the unburned hydrocarbons is increased accordingly. One of the most serious problems is the thermal destruction of areas of an exhaust gas purification device due to excessive concentrations of unburned hydrocarbons, such as occur in misfires. Misfiring can hardly be avoided in gas engines, however.
As a countermeasure against such intensified corrosion of a catalyst carrier body due to strong exothermic reactions caused by unburned hydrocarbons, for example DE 100 46 276 A1 shows a catalyst carrier body which has two different zones in the flow direction of the exhaust gas, the first zone having a higher surface-specific heat capacity than the second zone. As a result, a relatively large amount of thermal energy is withdrawn from the exhaust gas in the first zone, as a result of which increased corrosion in the second zone can be counteracted. The disadvantage here, however, is that the heat absorption takes place by the catalyst carrier body itself. Since the heat capacity and the thermal conductivity of the catalyst carrier body are limited, only a slight dissipation of the resulting heat from the catalyst arrangement into the surrounding structure takes place.
The object of the invention is to avoid the disadvantages described above and to provide a comparison with the prior art improved catalyst arrangement for an exhaust gas purification device of an internal combustion engine. In particular, a catalyst arrangement for the reduction of unburned fuel components is to be specified, which avoids the aforementioned problems with strong exotherms. In particular, the catalyst arrangement should have a high tolerance to short-term hydrocarbon spikes caused, for example, by misfires or interruptions in engine combustion, e.g. through selective selective cylinder shutdown during load drops, can occur.
This object is achieved in that a Wärmeabführvorrichtung is provided which comprises at least one heat receiving device and a heat sink, wherein at least between two catalytically active areas, the at least one heat receiving device is provided, wherein the at least one heat receiving device is contacted with the heat sink.
The heat removal device is intended, in particular, to be able to dissipate heat which arises in the conversion of unburned hydrocarbon fractions in the catalyst arrangement. The preferably two to four catalytically active regions of a catalyst arrangement can be independent of one another. Between at least two catalytically active areas while a heat receiving device is provided which can absorb the resulting heat and derived by thermal contact with a heat sink accordingly. The heat sink can preferably be formed by a housing which encloses the catalyst arrangement and is thermally contacted or coupled with its at least one heat receiving device. According to an advantageous development, a heat-conductive heat transport device, preferably a metal fiber mat or an embedding compound, can be provided between the catalyst arrangement and the housing.
A preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the plurality of catalytically active regions each comprise a carrier body, wherein at least one catalyst, preferably a plurality of catalysts, is applied to the carrier body. As catalysts are often used precious metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium. It can preferably be provided that the catalyst arrangement has a first catalytically active region and a second catalytically active region in the flow direction, wherein the carrier body of the first catalytically active region has a lower catalyst loading than the carrier body of the second catalytically active region.
In a further embodiment of the invention, this can be designed so that between each two successive in the flow direction catalytically active regions each heat absorbing device is provided. It can of course also be provided that in each case a heat receiving device is provided in the flow direction before the first and after the last catalytically active region. • ft • ft ft * • ft ft ft ft ·

In conventional catalytic converter arrangements, the carrier bodies are usually pressed in the housing by means of ceramic swelling mats (for example of mica compounds). These swelling mats have the task to compensate for the different thermal expansions of carrier body and housing, as well as to thermally isolate the catalyst assembly. It should thus be removed as little heat from the interior of the catalyst assembly in the housing surrounding the catalyst assembly. In the proposed catalyst arrangement, however, exactly the opposite is to be achieved: in order to counteract the strong evolution of heat by the reaction of unburned hydrocarbons, as much heat should be dissipated. For this purpose, heat-absorbing devices are provided in the interior of the catalyst arrangement, which dissipate the resulting heat, preferably by means of a heat-conductive heat transport device (for example a metal fiber mat or embedding compound having a high thermal conductivity), to a heat sink, for example the housing surrounding the catalyst arrangement. Such a heat-conductive heat transport device has a temperature-stabilizing effect, so that a thermal relief of the catalyst arrangement can be made possible at short-term temperature peaks. The housing may preferably surround the catalyst arrangement in the flow direction of the exhaust gas jacket-shaped.
According to a particularly preferred embodiment it can be provided that the carrier body is a ceramic carrier. The ceramic of the support body may comprise, for example, cordierite. The carrier body may be formed from a disk with a thickness of 40 - € 0 mm, preferably 50 mm. In the case of circular disks, the diameter of the disk can be 120-160 mm, preferably 140 mm. The wall thickness of the carrier can be > 0.25 mm, preferably at least 0.3 mm in order to ensure an increased heat capacity of the carrier.
In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention it can be provided that the at least one Wärmeaulhahmevorrichtung consists at least partially of a material with good thermal conductivity and / or that the at least one heat receiving device consists at least partially of a material with high heat capacity. In the context of the invention, a material with a thermal conductivity is characterized by a material with good thermal conductivity. 10 W / mK, preferably > 20 W / mK understood. This applies, for example, to certain brass alloys or copper-nickel alloys, such as the alloy CuNi2Si (SB22) with about 250 W / mK. Under a • e ·· eee · · * # * ♦ * «« Ml

High heat capacity material in the invention is a material having a specific heat capacity > 0.4 kJ / kgK understood.
In general, however, an uncoated carrier body can also be used as the heat-receiving device, in which case preferably the cell wall thickness is selected to be higher in order to achieve a higher heat capacity.
Particularly advantageous is that embodiment of the invention in which the at least one heat receiving device comprises at least one wire grid layer. A wire mesh layer may be formed of substantially straight, crosswise arranged rods or wires, preferably each about 1.5 - 2.5 mm in diameter. The preferred materials for the rods or wires are steel (low alloy), brass, nickel, alloys or special ceramics with high thermal conductivity and high heat capacity.
Preferably, 4-7 wire mesh layers per heat receiving device can be used. The distance between the individual bars or wires within a plane or wire mesh layer can be about 1.5 - 2.5 mm. The wire mesh layers can be enclosed in flexible brackets or terminals, in which case no tightness is required. The at least one heat receiving device may also comprise a plurality of wire mesh layers arranged congruently or offset from one another, and in total have a layer thickness of approximately 5-15 mm in the flow direction.
In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, a fine tuning of the wire spacings and number of wire grid layers can be made such that at a flow velocity of the exhaust gas with respect to the free flow surface of about 1 m / s, a pressure drop of 4-7 mbar. In addition to the heat dissipation, the at least one heat absorption device can thereby contribute to a homogenization of the flow over the cross section, relative to the flow direction of the exhaust gas. By an appropriate arrangement of the at least one wire grid layer but also increased turbulence generation in the exhaust gas flow can be achieved, by which the reactivity of the exhaust gas can be increased in the downstream of the catalytically active region. • Ψ · · · · «I · φ« • ·· * ··· * · ** * · Μ · «« · «
Preferably, it can be provided that the at least one heat receiving device comprises a metal or ceramic foam. A metal or ceramic foam can ausvyirken particularly favorable to a flow equalization and heat distribution or temperature stabilization. The metal or ceramic foam used is preferably characterized by a large specific surface, a high thermal conductivity, a high heat capacity, and a high temperature and corrosion resistance. The at least one heat receiving device can also be designed as a sponge or as a hollow ball structure.
In order to intensify the heat dissipation effect of the heat dissipation device, a cooling device for active cooling of the at least one heat absorption device can be further provided.
For preheating the plurality of catalytically active regions, for example during a cold start of the internal combustion engine, at least one heating device can be provided. This can for example be designed as a heating mat and be arranged in the flow direction after a heat receiving device and in front of a catalytically active region. Such a heater is used in particular during a cold start of the internal combustion engine to achieve a stable temperature state in the catalyst arrangement.
It has proven to be particularly advantageous if the housing of the catalyst arrangement has at least one fastening device for fastening the catalyst arrangement to a housing part of an exhaust gas purification device. The fastening devices can be embodied, for example, as a plurality of support elements (for example fixing rings) projecting from the preferably jacket-shaped housing, through which the catalyst arrangement can be connected to the inner housing of an exhaust-gas purification device, e.g. can be screwed. If both the housing of the catalyst assembly and the inner casing of the exhaust gas purification device made of a good thermal conductivity material (eg steel sheet), so starting from the at least one heat receiving device via, for example, a good thermal conductivity heat transfer device (eg investment) to the housing of the catalyst assembly and the inner casing of the Exhaust gas purification device, which form the heat sink in this case, a good heat dissipation can be achieved.
Protection is also desired for an exhaust gas purification device according to claim 14. Advantageous embodiments are given in the dependent claims.
The Katatysatoranordnungen can preferably be arranged so that their flow direction is substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the inner housing, so that the catalyst assemblies viewed from the housing can be flowed through radially. Such an arrangement of the Katatysatoranordnungen along the longitudinal axis of the inner housing can be achieved that the flow rate in the exhaust gas purification device and thus the influx of unburned exhaust gas components can be significantly reduced to the surfaces of the catalytically active regions at a constant space velocity. Furthermore, this allows the entire catalyst volume to be divided into a plurality of individual catalyst arrangements, each of which has a relatively small diameter.
To indicate the specific exhaust gas performance of an exhaust gas purification device, the exhaust gas flow rate through the exhaust gas purification device is usually related to the total volume of the catalytically active regions and referred to as space velocity. Usually, the space velocity of exhaust gas purification devices is between 40,000 and 100,000 hrs. An exhaust gas quantity corresponding to 40,000 or 100,000 times the total volume of the catalytically active regions flows through the exhaust gas purification device per hour. These values for the space velocity correspond to values for the flow velocity of about 3 to 7 m / s, referred to the free entry surface of the catalytically active regions. According to the flow velocity, the exhaust gas supplies the chemical energy contained in the unburned hydrocarbons, part of which is converted into heat by the chemical reaction into the carrier bodies of the catalyst arrangements of the exhaust gas purification device.
The sum of the inlet surfaces of the catalyst assemblies can be in a defined ratio to the exhaust gas volume flow (based on the rated power of the engine) according to the required space velocity, according to the formula: 8 where A is the sum of the inlet surfaces of the catalyst assemblies, Q the exhaust gas volume flow, v the required space velocity and I corresponds to the total length of the catalytically active regions. According to this formula, for example, with an exhaust gas volume flow of 1,000 m3 / h, a space velocity of 40,000 h'1 and a total length of the catalytically active areas of an exhaust gas purification device of 0.1 m, a required sum of the inlet areas of the catalyst arrangements of 0.25 m2 results
As the inner casing of the exhaust gas purification device, for example, a canted, preferably at least 3 mm thick, heat-resistant steel sheet can be used, whose cross-section can be polygonal transverse to the longitudinal axis. Thus, e.g. an octagonal cross section of the housing shell of the inner housing eight in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the inner housing extending side surfaces, wherein on each side surface in the direction of the longitudinal axis of catalyst arrangements can be arranged. The number of side surfaces can be carried out depending on the Abgasvoiumenstrom through the emission control device. Thus, for example, the cross-section of the housing shell of the inner housing may be square, in the range of 1,500 to 5,000 m3 / h hexagonal, in the range of 4,000 to 12,000 m3 / h octagonal and in the range> 2,000 m3 / h square. 12,000 m3 / h be executed dodecagonal.
Furthermore, it can be provided in a proposed exhaust gas purification device that the inner housing has a Abgaseinlassöffriung, wherein the plurality of catalyst assemblies are arranged starting from the exhaust gas inlet opening along the longitudinal axis at decreasing radial distances from the longitudinal axis. In this case, starting from the exhaust gas inlet opening, the inside diameter of the inner housing decreases along the longitudinal axis. This can be achieved, for example, in that the housing shell of the inner housing has a plurality of sections with different cross-sectional diameters. Alternatively or in addition to the housing shell with different diameters and the catalyst assemblies may be arranged at different radial distances from the longitudinal axis of the inner housing at this. Such an arrangement of the catalyst arrangements, in particular with relatively large axial dimensions of the inner housing, the exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust gas inlet opening uniformly on the
Catalyst arrangements are distributed.
Furthermore, a heating device for heating the catalytically active regions of at least one of the plurality of catalyst arrangements may be provided. Preferably, in each case a heating device can be arranged between in each case two catalyst arrangements arranged along the direction of the longitudinal axis. The heaters are used in particular during a cold start of the internal combustion engine for rapid increase in temperature of the exhaust gas purification device in order to bring about a rapid catalytic activity of the exhaust gas purification device can. The heaters can be heated wires, for example. Alternatively or additionally, the at least one heat receiving device can also be used for heating.

1a shows a sectional view along the flow direction S of an exemplary embodiment of a proposed catalyst arrangement 1. The catalyst arrangement 1 comprises two catalytically active regions 4, 4 ', which each comprise a carrier body 6. The carrier body 6 of the first catalytically active region 4 in the flow direction S has a lower charge with catalysts than the carrier body 6 of the second catalytically active region 4 'in the flow direction S. As a result, the first catalytically active region 4 in the flow direction S has a lower catalytic activity compared to the second catalytically active region 4 ', as a result of which the unburnt fuel components can be reacted over the entire catalyst length. The carrier body 6 of the two catalytically active regions 4, 4 'can be, for example, circular ceramic matrix disks with disk thicknesses D1, D2 of approximately 45 mm and diameters of approximately 140 mm. The wall thickness of the ceramic matrix can be about 0.3 mm in order to increase the heat capacity of the ceramic matrix and the thermal resistance to a rasdien temperature rise accordingly. Between the two Trägerkörpem 6 of the catalytically active regions 4, 4 ', a heat receiving device 5a is arranged, said heat receiving device 5a preferably comprises a material having good thermal conductivity and / or high heat capacity to dissipate and / or absorb occurring temperature peaks accordingly. The heat receiving device 5a may for example consist of one or more wire grid layers, wherein the grid bars can each have diameters of about 1.5 to 2.5 mm. The wire grid layers can be temperature-stabilizing and, depending on the arrangement, also produce turbulence. Increased turbulence in the exhaust gas flow can result in an increased reaction in the catalytically active region 4 'following in the direction of flow S.
The shown arrangement of two catalytically active regions 4, 4 'and arranged therebetween heat receiving device 5a is embedded by means of good thermal conductivity heat transport device 8 in a jacket-shaped housing 7, which acts as a heat sink 5b The heat transport device 8 may be for example a metal fiber mat, which is the heat of the carrier body 6 and the heat receiving device 5a in the direction of the housing 7, which may be, for example, a sheet-steel cylinder jacket, abfeiten.
1b shows a diagram of the concentration K of the unburned hydrocarbon fractions contained in the exhaust gas flow over the thickness D of the catalytically active regions 4, 4 ', through which the exhaust gas flows in the direction of flow S, according to FIG. The x-11
The axis of this diagram shows the layer thicknesses D1, D2 of the two catalytically active regions 4, 4 'of the arrangement according to FIG. 1a, which are flowed through in the flow direction S by the exhaust gas flow. The y-axis shows the concentration K of the unburned hydrocarbons in the exhaust stream. In this case, the concentration K on entry into the first catalytically active region 4 is considered as the reference value. This reference value is given as 100%. According to the loading with catalysts, the concentration K decreases along the slice thickness D1 of the first catalytically active region 4. The second catalytically active region 4 'has a higher charge with catalysts than the first catalytically active region 4, as a result of which this second catalytically active region 4 'has a higher catalytic activity and the concentration K of unburned hydrocarbons in the exhaust stream decreases correspondingly faster. By such an uneven loading of catalysts can be erected that the implementation of the unburned hydrocarbons is better distributed to the affected catalytically active regions 4, 4 '. It should thereby be avoided that the majority of the unburned hydrocarbons is already reacted in the first catalytically active region 4 in the direction of flow S, since the heat front migrates counter to the direction of flow S anyway. In other words, it should be achieved that even in catalytically active regions 4 ', which follow the first catalytically active region 4 in the flow direction S, unburned hydrocarbons are still reacted. Of course, it can also be provided that both catalytically active regions 4, 4 'have the same loading of catalysts. This case shows the dashed curve in the diagram.
FIG. 2 shows a further exemplary embodiment of the proposed catalyst arrangement 1 in a sectional view along the flow direction S. In this example, the catalyst arrangement 1 has a total of three catalytically active regions 4, wherein between each two catalytically active regions 4 succeeding one another in the flow direction S, a heat absorption device 5a is provided is. The entire assembly is embedded by means of a good thermal conductivity investment, which forms a heat transport device 8, in a cylinder-shaped housing 7, wherein the housing 7 forms a heat sink 5b. The housing 7 may for example consist of sheet steel and has in this Ausführungsbeispiei two fastening devices 9, through which the catalyst assembly 1 can be attached to an inner housing 10 of an exhaust gas purification device 2, for example by screwing. By a detachable attachment of the catalyst assembly 1 on the inner housing 10 of an exhaust gas purification device 2 can • • • • m • • • • • *. The catalyst assembly 1 is particularly easy to service (eg cleaned) or exchanged).
3a shows schematically an example of a proposed exhaust gas purification device 2 comprising an inner housing 10 and an outer housing 12 enclosing the inner housing 10. The inner housing 10 is tubular in this case. It has a housing shell 11 and is closed on the right front side. In the region of the left end side, the inner housing 10 is connected to an exhaust manifold of an indicated internal combustion engine 3. The flow direction of the exhaust gases of
Internal combustion engine 3 is indicated by dashed arrows. Along the longitudinal axis L of the inner housing 10 11 proposed catalyst assemblies 1 are arranged on the Gehäusemantei. In the example shown, the exhaust gas flows through the exhaust manifold of the internal combustion engine 3 and is introduced through the exhaust gas inlet opening 13 of the inner housing 10 in the interior of the inner housing 10. From here, the exhaust gas flows along the flow directions S through the individual catalyst arrangements 1 in the direction of the outer housing 12 of the Äbgasreinigungsvorrichtung 2. From there, the exhaust gas leaves the Äbgasreinigungsvorrichtung 2 via the outlet 20, for example in the direction of the exhaust gas turbocharger.
For monitoring the temperature, one or more catalyst arrangements 1 can be equipped with temperature sensors, wherein these temperature sensors can be located immediately before or after the respective catalyst arrangement 1 or within the catalyst arrangement 1, for example between a catalytically active area 4 and a heat receiving device 5a. Alternatively, a heat receiving device 5a can be used within a catalyst assembly 1 for determining the prevailing temperature werdsn. By monitoring the temperature, the danger of overheating can be detected early and counteracted accordingly, for example by interrupting the gas supply to the internal combustion engine 3, or by controlling the exhaust gas via a bypass line 19 (see FIG. 9).
3b shows a sectional view along section line A-A of the inner housing 10 of Fig. 3a. The housing shell 11 of the inner housing 10 is an eight-folded steel sheet. At the eight side surfaces 15 of the housing shell 11 are the catalyst assemblies 1 in the direction of the longitudinal axis! arranged. An attachment of a catalyst arrangement 1 on a side surface 15 can over
Fastening devices 9 on the housing 7 of the catalyst assembly 1 take place (see Fig. 2).
4 shows the plan view of a further example of an inner housing 10 with catalytic converter arrangements 1 arranged thereon. The lattice-shaped hatched areas indicate the exit surfaces of a carrier body 6 through which the exhaust gas flows in the form of a ceramic matrix. In this example, the catalyst assemblies 1 have a quadrangular cross-section transverse to the flow direction S. The catalyst assemblies 1 adjacent side surfaces 15 of the housing shell 11 are each arranged at the same distance from the exhaust gas inlet opening 13.
FIG. 5 shows a further example of an inner housing 10 and catalyst arrangements 1 arranged thereon. In this example, the catalyst arrangements 1 have a round cross section transverse to the flow direction S. The catalyst assemblies 1 of adjacent side surfaces 15 of the housing shell 11 are offset from each other. Thus, a higher packing density can be achieved. In addition, thereby the supporting webs between the catalyst assemblies 1 are evenly distributed.
To optimize the flow conditions in an exhaust gas purification device 2, the cross sections of the housing shell 11 of the inner housing 10 along the longitudinal axis L may have a plurality of different diameters and thus the local exhaust gas volume flows to be adjusted. 6 schematically shows the example of an exhaust gas purification device 2, to which the housing shell 11 of the inner housing 10 is stepped, wherein the diameter of the cross section transverse to the longitudinal axis L in the region of the Abgaseiniassöffnung 13 has a higher value than the diameter of a cross section of the housing shell 11 in FIG By such a variable flow cross-section of the inner region of the inner housing 10 can be achieved that the flow velocities of the exhaust gas along the longitudinal axis L have a similar level.
In addition, in this embodiment, the exhaust gas purification device 2 heaters 14 are provided in the form of heating wires between adjacent in the longitudinal direction L catalyst assemblies 1. By these heaters 14, the exhaust gas purification device 2, for example, before the start of the internal combustion engine 3 (not shown here) are preheated to reaction temperature.

In addition to the stepped housing shell 11, the catalyst arrangements 1 are arranged at different radial distances from the longitudinal axis L, so that the radial distances starting from the exhaust gas inlet opening 13 to the right remove the end face of the inner housing 10 continuously. This improves the flow conditions of the exhaust gas flow in the interior of the inner housing 10. At the right end side of the inner housing 10, a further catalyst arrangement 1 is provided in this embodiment, the flow direction S is parallel to the longitudinal axis L.
8 shows a schematic longitudinal section of a further advantageous embodiment of an exhaust-gas purification device 2 with proposed catalyst arrangements 1, in which a conical flow-deflecting device 16 is provided in the interior of the inner housing 10. This flow deflection device 16 can improve the flow behavior of the Katatysatoranordnungen 1. On the respective downstream side of the catalyst assemblies 1, the outer housing 12 is designed so that the distance between the outer housing 12 and housing shell 11 of the inner housing 10 increases from left to right, ie in the direction of an increasing mass flow of the exhaust gas flowing through the catalyst assemblies 1. Overall, results from the arrangement of this embodiment, a flow-optimized design while minimizing the interior of the exhaust gas purification device. 2
9 schematically shows the internal structure of a further exhaust gas purification device 2 with proposed catalyst arrangements 1. In the region of the exhaust gas inlet opening 13 of the inner housing 10, the exhaust gas purification device 2 is connected to an exhaust manifold of an indicated here internal combustion engine 3, so that the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine 3 through the exhaust gas inlet opening 13 in the interior of the inner housing 10 can flow. The exhaust gas flows along the flow directions S through the catalyst assemblies 1 into the space between the inner housing 10 and the outer housing 12. From there it is discharged via the outlet 20 of the exhaust gas purification device 2, for example in the direction of an exhaust gas turbocharger. In this example, the exhaust manifold 18 of the internal combustion engine 3 via a bypass line 19 has a direct connection to the outlet 20 of the exhaust gas purification device 2 15 on. By way of a provided exhaust gas steering device 17 in the form of an adjusting flap, the exhaust gas volume flow can be divided in any ratio between the two line guides through the exhaust gas purification device 2 and through the bypass line 19. A distribution of the exhaust gas volume flow can be carried out on the basis of the temperature conditions in the exhaust gas purification device 2 or according to engine dynamics requirements, e.g. for the start and shutdown of the internal combustion engine 3 or for the rapid startup of the internal combustion engine. 3
