Abstract
The project aims at simulation of diesel vehicle and the effect of after treatment devices on emissions of vehicle in mathematical environment. Environmental degradation due to pollution is increasing also emission norms of vehicles are becoming more and more stringent. Newer technologies are developing to attain the target of reduction in emissions. After treatment devices like diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) is used to oxidize CO and HC, diesel particulate filter (DPF) is used to trap particulate matter and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is used for reduction of NOx. In this project, simulation of light-duty diesel vehicle is performed and results are validated with actual data. Simulation of above devices provided reliable results as well as variation of different parameters within the components helped to improve the efficiency of system. Based on the reduction of emission, the conversion efficiency of after treatment system is calculated. Optimization of geometrical parameters of diesel oxidation catalyst and diesel particulate filter is done to further improve the performance of system.
