The invention relates to a method for determining the concentration of at least one reaction product at the outlet of a catalyst, in particular a diesel-oxidation catalyst, in the exhaust line of an internal combustion engine.
US 2009/0 158 719 A1 shows an exhaust aftertreatment system for a diesel engine for reducing the content of NOx, soot particles and gaseous hydrocarbons, wherein a first oxidation catalyst, a particulate filter, an SCR catalyst (SCR = Selective Catalytic Reduction ) and a second oxidation catalyst are arranged. Upstream of the SCR catalyst, a metering device for introducing a reducing agent is disposed in the exhaust gas.
US 8,474,248 B2 discloses a model-based method for determining the NH3 metering rate for an internal combustion engine, in whose exhaust gas line a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and an SCR catalyst are arranged. An NH3 metering device is provided upstream of the SCR catalyst. In this case, the ratio NO2 / NOX is determined at the input of the SCR catalyst in a manner not described in detail.
Accurate determination of the concentrations of NO and NO 2 is required to determine the exact operating point of a catalyst. The exact operating point, in turn, is necessary to allow accurate dosing of the reductant supplied upstream of the SCR catalyst in a model-based SCR regime.
It has been found that a simple characteristic-based model for dividing the NOx concentration calculated by a sensor or calculated by a computational model into NO and NO 2 concentrations is insufficient: the deviations from the real NO and NO 2 concentrations are too great, which is too complete incorrect internal reaction rates in the SCR catalyst, especially since it reacts very sensitively to upstream NO and NO 2 concentrations.
It is the object of the invention to avoid the disadvantages mentioned and to provide a method with which the reactions in one or more catalysts can be detected as accurately as possible in a simple manner.
According to the invention, this is done by dividing the catalyst in the flow direction into a number n of individual cells and the concentration cN0 ^ k of NO 2 at the exit of each cell by means of a discrete NO 2 model on the basis of the respective entry-side concentration of NO 2 and the reaction rate r NO 0 for NO im
Catalyst determined and the concentration cN0 at N02 at the output of the last
Cell is assigned to the concentration cN0 to N02 at the outlet of the catalyst.
The N02 model used is a physical basis model of NO reactions in the catalyst. It requires very little calibration effort and has high flexibility to be easily adapted for various exhaust aftertreatment systems. It can be implemented as an exact DOC model in common motor controls.
The objective of the N02 model is to determine the concentration of NO 2, in particular NO. For simplicity, the following factors can be disregarded: - oxidation of HC and CO; Temperature rise due to exothermic reactions of HC, CO and NO;
The change in O 2 concentration due to oxidation processes is so small between the inlet and outlet of the catalyst that it can be neglected in a simple model; the initial concentration of O 2 can thus be assumed equal to the input concentration; - Effects of soot concentration in the catalyst on NO oxidation and NO 2 reduction.
In the context of the invention it is provided that the concentration cN0 ^ (i) of NO 2 at the time of sampling i is determined according to the following equation:
in which
Ts = sample time or step size of the discretization with
in which
Tc = temperature of the catalyst in [K] yx = concentration in ppmcx = concentration in mol / m3px = pressure R = the gas constant j = index of the oxygen concentration, with j = V2 for diesel oxidation catalyst or diesel particulate filter. TEG = exhaust gas temperature in [K] n = number of cells in discrete orderVc = catalyst volume eg = open end face of the catalyst mEG = exhaust gas mass flowMeg = molar mass of the exhaust gas aR = geometric surface with:
where ki / 2 and Ei, 2 represent catalyst-dependent parameters, as well as with
The NO concentration at the exit of the catalyst may be reduced by the difference between a total amount of NOx upstream of the catalyst, preferably determined by measurement, and the NO 2 concentration cn 0, determined by the NO 2 model, which is last in the flow direction
Cell k are calculated.
If the aforementioned simplification of a constant O 2 concentration between the inlet and outlet of the catalyst is not met, then in an extended model the oxygen concentration at the outlet of the catalyst can be calculated from the difference between an oxygen concentration preferably measured by measuring upwards of the catalyst and the amount of oxygen consumed in the oxidation of the NO ,
Preferably, at least one of the determined concentrations is supplied as an input to model-based SCR control of a catalyst downstream SCR catalyst. The discrete N02 model, as well as the model-based SCR control, may be implemented in the engine control unit of the internal combustion engine.
The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to FIGS.
1 schematically shows an internal combustion engine together with an exhaust gas line for carrying out the method according to the invention, and FIG. 2 shows a catalyst divided into individual cells.
The method serves to determine the concentration of reaction products such as NO 2 and / or NO at the outlet of a catalyst DOC, for example a diesel oxidation catalyst, in the exhaust line 2 of an internal combustion engine 1. As can be seen in Fig. 1, a SCR catalyst SCR is disposed downstream of the catalyst DOC. Reference numeral 3 is a metering device for a reducing agent such as NH3. In front of the catalyst DOC can a
Sensor 4 for determining the NOx content in the exhaust gas and a temperature sensor 5 be arranged. The measured data is supplied to an engine control unit ECU and evaluated by means of the N02 model with determination of the NO 2 and NO concentrations in the exhaust gas at the outlet of the catalyst DOC. Based on these concentrations, the reducing agent is metered by means of a model-based known SCR control implemented in the engine control unit.
As shown in Fig. 2, the physical model for the catalyst DOC comprises a series of consecutive thrusted-tank cells 6, CSTR, of n number, the upstream cell output conditions being the input conditions of the adjacent downstream ones Cell can be assigned. The physical model used is thus one-dimensional. The number n of cells is chosen so that a good compromise between the accuracy of the model and the required computation time arises. The flow direction of the exhaust gas is indicated by the arrows.
The reaction in the catalyst DOC proceeds according to the following reaction equation: NO + 0.5O 2 < r * NO 2 (1)
The reaction rate rNOI for NO in the catalyst DOC can be calculated according to the following equation:
(2) where
Tc = temperature of the catalyst in [K] yx = concentration in ppmcx = concentration in mol / m3px = pressure R = the gas constant j = index of the oxygen concentration, with j = Vi for diesel with:
(3)
(4) where ki, 2Uncl Ei, 2 represent catalyst-dependent parameters,
(5)
(6).
The present reaction rate rNOI is independent of the operating point and may be positive NO + 0.5O2 -> NO 2 or negative NO 2 ->. NO + 0.5O2, depending on the direction in which the reaction proceeds.
The physical implementation of the NO 2 catalyst model is determined by a state expressed by an inhomogeneous non-linear ordinary differential equation. In the following, " k " for the cell index of the catalyst.
The change with time of the concentration of I102 can be stated as follows:
(7) where: TEG = temperature of the exhaust gas in [K] η = number of cells
Vc = volume of the catalyst ε = flow cross-section of the catalyst mEa = exhaust gas mass flowMeg = exhaust gas molecular weight aR = geometric surface of the catalyst.
The NO concentration is calculated as the total amount of upstream NO x decreased around the oxidized NO 2.
The oxygen concentration is calculated by subtracting from the upstream oxygen amount the amount of oxygen consumed by the oxidized NO.
With the mentioned reaction rate rN0I results
and after forming further:
(9) and finally:
(10) where
(ID
(12)
Using the implied Euler method, the discrete N02 model can be derived as follows:
(14)
(15)
The NO concentration at the exit of the catalyst DOC may be reduced from the difference between a total amount of NOx upstream of the catalyst DOC determined by the sensor 4 by the NO 2 concentration determined by the NO 2 model, which is the last one in the flow direction
Cell 6 are calculated.
The oxygen concentration at the outlet of the catalyst DOC can be calculated from the difference between an oxygen quantity determined upstream of the catalyst DOC reduced, for example by measurement or by means of a model, by the amount of oxygen consumed in the oxidation of the NO.
The process according to the invention can be applied not only to diesel oxidation catalysts but also to determining the concentration of at least one reaction product at the outlet of other exhaust aftertreatment devices, for example a catalyst arranged downstream of the exhaust gas turbocharger of the exhaust gas turbocharger (so-called ATC = After Turbo Catalyst) and / or in a diesel particulate filter (DPF).
The method thus finds application, for example, in an exhaust after-treatment system comprising ATC, DOC and SCR or DOC, DPF and SCR or ATC, DOC, DPF and SCR to characterize the reaction within the catalyst (s) for model-based control of the SCR catalyst. The discrete N02 model is in each case implemented in the engine control ECU of the internal combustion engine.
