Abstract
Coated gasoline particulate filters (cGPFs) can reduce gaseous as well as particulate emissions with the same device. However, their more complex design compared to conventional open monoliths requires accurate models in the development phase. We therefore present a new global kinetic model for cGPFs considering standard three-way catalyst reactions and extend it with the impact of lean–rich cycling, referred to as dithering. Submodels are introduced for the oxygen storage and for the extent of oxidation of the active centers. Therefore, the model captures the enhanced conversion of the catalyst under various dithering as well as steady-state conditions. Several steady-state and transient experiments were conducted on a specially equipped dynamic engine test bench in order to calibrate the approach. The proposed model accurately predicts the tailpipe emissions released in a worldwide harmonized light vehicles test procedure driving cycle that is not part of the original calibration data.
