Abstract

A catalytic converter is a device designed to decrease the levels of harmful pollutants emitted by internal combustion engines. These converters are commonly used in automotive exhaust systems. Different fluids, such as carbon dioxide, ethane, and nitrogen, are employed for various purposes. To perform steady-state thermal analysis, different materials like stainless steel are utilized. The catalytic converter, typically constructed from gray cast material, facilitates the conversion of CO, HC, and NOx emissions into CO2, H2O, N2, and O2. This study involves the utilization of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis on iron and aluminum catalytic converters. Additionally, a thermal study is conducted to determine suitable materials for catalytic converter manufacturing. The CATIA (Computer Aided Three-dimensional Interactive Application) software is used for design purposes, while Ansys Workbench 16.0 is employed for analysis.
