Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur gezielten Generierung von NH3 während des Regenerationsvorgangs eines in einem Abgassystem einer Brennkraftmaschine angeordneten NOx-Speicherkatalysators, wobei die Regeneration durch Einstellen einer reduzierend wirkenden Abgasatmosphäre vor dem NOx-Speicherkatalysator ausgelöst wird und der zeitliche Verlauf von zumindest während der Regenerationsphase stromaufwärts und stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators ermittelten Lambdawerten im Abgas stromauf- und stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators bestimmt wird.The invention relates to a method for the targeted generation of NH 3 during the regeneration process of an arranged in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine NO x storage catalytic converter, wherein the regeneration is triggered by setting a reducing exhaust gas atmosphere in front of the NO x storage catalytic converter and the time course of at least during the regeneration phase upstream and downstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter determined lambda values in the exhaust gas upstream and downstream of the NO x storage catalyst is determined.
Zur Erfüllung aktueller und zukünftiger Emissionsgrenzwerte gibt es beim Betrieb eingangs erwähnter Brennkraftmaschinen verschiedene Möglichkeiten. Ein NOx-Speicherkatalysator, welcher auch als LNT („Lean-NOx-Trap“) bekannt ist, kann mit einem SCR-Katalysator kombiniert sein, zu dessen Betrieb NH3 notwendig ist, welches im LNT durch verlängerten Fettbetrieb gebildet werden kann. Diese interne NH3 Generierung während der verlängerten LNT-Regeneration in Kombination mit einem nachgeschalteten SCR wird als passives SCR bezeichnet. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann eine aktive NH3-Dosierung von außen vorgesehen sein.For the fulfillment of current and future emission limit values, there are various possibilities in the operation of the initially mentioned internal combustion engines. A NO x storage catalyst, which is also known as LNT ( "Lean-NO x -Trap"), may be combined with an SCR catalyst for its operation is necessary NH 3, which can be formed by prolonged rich operation in the LNT. This internal NH 3 generation during prolonged LNT regeneration in combination with a downstream SCR is referred to as a passive SCR. Alternatively or additionally, an active NH 3 dosage can be provided from the outside.
Üblicherweise wird das Ende der Regeneration eines NOx-Speicherkatalysators, wecher auch als LNT (Lean NOx Trap) bekannt ist, anhand eines charakteristischen Abfalls des Lambdawertes einer nach dem NOx-Speicherkatalysator angeordneten Lambdasonde erkannt, siehe
Bekannte Verfahren haben allerdings den Nachteil, dass sie relativ ungenau sind und/oder dass für die Messung zusätzliche und aufwändige Messsensorik (z.B. zumindest eine NOx-Sonde, die aktuell ca. das Dreifache von einfachen Lambdasonden kosten) erforderlich ist.However, known methods have the disadvantage that they are relatively inaccurate and / or that for the measurement additional and expensive measuring sensors (eg at least one NO x probe, currently costing about three times the value of simple lambda probes) is required.
Es ist die Aufgabe der Erfindung, diese Nachteile zu vermeiden und ein Verfahren vorzuschlagen, welches ohne zusätzliche teure Sensoren auskommt und qualitativ hochwertige Aussagen ermöglicht.It is the object of the invention to avoid these disadvantages and to propose a method which requires no additional expensive sensors and enables high-quality statements.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dies dadurch erreicht, dass folgende Schritte durchgeführt werden:
- a) Aufsuchen eines Kreuzungszeitpunktes, an welchem die ermittelten Lambdawerte stromaufwärts und stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators den gleichen Wert aufweisen,
- b) Ermitteln einer ab dem Kreuzungszeitpunkt bis zu einem Bezugszeitpunkt durch die zeitlichen Verläufe der Lambdawerte stromaufwärts und stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators aufgespannten Differenzfläche;
- c) Ermitteln einer NH3-Menge im Abgas stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators auf der Basis der Differenzfläche;
- d) Beendigen des Regenerationsvorganges, wenn die ermittelte NH3-Menge im Abgas stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators einen definierten Grenzwert überschreitet.
- a) looking for a crossover point at which the determined lambda values have the same value upstream and downstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter,
- b) determining a differential area spanned from the time of intersection to a reference time by the temporal profiles of the lambda values upstream and downstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter;
- c) determining an amount of NH 3 in the exhaust gas downstream of the NO x storage catalyst based on the differential area;
- d) terminating the regeneration process when the determined amount of NH 3 in the exhaust gas downstream of the NO x storage catalyst exceeds a defined limit.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren erlaubt eine bewusste NH3-Generierung durch definierte Verlängerung des Regenerationsvorganges. Das NH3 kann dann im Abgasnachbehandlungssystem, z.B. einem nachgelagerten SCR-Katalysator, eingespeichert werden. Die Ermittlung der Lambdawerte lässt sich mit beliebigen Sonden umsetzen, die Lambdawerte messen können - beispielsweise dezidierten Lambdasonden bzw. Sonden, die O2-Werte messen, aber auch Sonden, die den Lambdawert als Zwischenwert ermitteln. Für die NH3-Bestimmung sind damit keine teuren NOx-Sonden mit der entsprechenden NH3 Querempfindlichkeit notwendig.The inventive method allows a deliberate NH 3 generation by defined extension of the regeneration process. The NH 3 can then be stored in the exhaust aftertreatment system, for example a downstream SCR catalyst. The determination of the lambda values can be implemented with any probes that can measure lambda values - for example, dedicated lambda probes or probes that measure O 2 values, but also probes that determine the lambda value as an intermediate value. For NH 3 determination, therefore, no expensive NO x probes with the corresponding NH 3 cross-sensitivity are necessary.
Bei dem Kreuzungszeitpunkt in a) handelt es sich um denjenigen Zeitpunkt, ab bzw. nach dem der Lambdawert stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators kleiner ist als der stromaufwärtige Lambdawert. Vor diesem Kreuzungszeitpunkt ist der stromabwärtige Lambdawert größer als stromaufwärts.The crossing time in a) is the time from or after which the lambda value downstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter is lower than the upstream lambda value. Before this crossing time, the downstream lambda value is greater than upstream.
Der Bezugszeitpunkt in b) ist der Zeitpunkt des Regenerationsendes, wo der stromabwärtige Lambdawert wieder ansteigt, insbesondere über den Wert im Kreuzungszeitpunkt bzw. darüber. Dieser Bezugszeitpunkt ist auch gekennzeichnet durch die Veränderung des stromaufwärtigen Lambdawerts zurück auf den Normalbetriebswert außerhalb des Regenerationsbetriebs.The reference time in b) is the time of the end of regeneration, where the downstream lambda value increases again, in particular over the value at the time of crossing or above. This reference time is also characterized by the change of the upstream lambda value back to the normal operating value outside the regeneration mode.
Der Grenzwert in d) ist insbesondere durch die NH3-Menge definiert, die im nachgelagerten Abgassystem benötigt wird, insbesondere in einem nachgelagerten SCR-Katalysator eingespeichert werden soll.The limit in d) is defined in particular by the amount of NH 3 required in the downstream exhaust system, in particular to be stored in a downstream SCR catalyst.
In einer ersten Variante der Erfindung wird in c) die NH3-Menge anhand eines empirisch ermittelten Zusammenhangs zwischen der Differenzfläche und der NH3-Menge bestimmt. Der Zusammenhang wird dabei in bekannter Weise durch eine empirische Formel oder ein entsprechendes Kennfeld hergestellt. Dabei können unter anderem folgende Parameter berücksichtigt werden: Temperatur des Abgases und des Katalysators (bzw. LNT); Abgasmassenstrom; Motorbetriebspunkte wie Motordrehzahl und - last. Dabei werden die jeweiligen Differenzen der stromauf- und -abwärtigen Lambdawerte mit empirisch ermittelten Faktoren gewichtet und die gewichteten Differenzen werden zur Differenzfläche aufintegriert. Damit wird zu jedem Zeitpunkt mittels Lambdadifferenzwert über den empirisch ermittelten Zusammenhang und den Abgasmassenstrom auf eine NH3-Menge rückgeschlossen, die zu einer Gesamt-NH3-Menge aufintegriert wird. In Schritt d) wird die Regeneration gestoppt, wenn eine gewisse NH3-Menge erreicht ist.In a first variant of the invention, the NH 3 amount determined 3 amount in c) with reference to an empirically determined relationship between the difference of surface and NH. The relationship is in a known manner by an empirical formula or a corresponding map produced. Among others, the following parameters can be considered: temperature of the exhaust gas and the catalyst (or LNT); Exhaust gas mass flow; Engine operating points such as engine speed and load. The respective differences of the upstream and downstream lambda values are weighted with empirically determined factors and the weighted differences are integrated into the differential area. Thus, at any time by means of lambda difference value on the empirically determined relationship and the exhaust gas mass flow to an NH 3 amount inferred, which is integrated into a total NH 3 amount. In step d), the regeneration is stopped when a certain amount of NH 3 is reached.
Damit sorgt eine übergeordnete SCR-Koordination dafür, dass ausreichend NH3 im Abgassystem vorhanden bzw. in einem SCR-Katalysator eingelagert ist, um eine gewünschte NOx-Konvertierung sicherzustellen.Thus, a higher-level SCR coordination ensures that sufficient NH 3 is present in the exhaust system or stored in an SCR catalytic converter in order to ensure a desired NO x conversion.
Gemäß einer zweiten Variante ergibt sich in c) eine besonders einfache Bestimmung der NH3-Menge im Abgas, wenn eine H2-Konzentration im Abgas stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators auf der Basis der Differenzfläche ermittelt und die NH3-Menge im Abgas stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators auf der Basis der ermittelten H2-Konzentration bestimmt wird. Nach dem Kreuzungszeitpunkt ist gespeichertes O2 verbraucht und es kommt zu H2-Bildung, die entsprechend detektiert werden kann. Das bedeutet, dass die Lambdawerte stromauf- und stromabwärts gleich sein sollten, wenn alles O2 verbraucht ist. Die H2-Bildung erfolgt beispielsweise durch Aufspaltung von Wassermolekülen in H2 und ½ O2 im SCR-Katalysator. Wegen der größeren Querempfindlichkeit des Sensors, mit dem Lambdawerte ermittelte werden - insbesondere z.B. einer Lambdasonde - für H2 als für O2 ist das Verhältnis der Konzentrationen von H2 zu O2 in der Sonde größer als im Abgas im Katalysator und daher der Lambdawert kleiner.According to a second variant, a particularly simple determination of the amount of NH 3 in the exhaust gas results in c) if an H 2 concentration in the exhaust gas downstream of the NO x storage catalyst is determined on the basis of the differential area and the NH 3 amount in the exhaust downstream of the NO x storage catalyst is determined on the basis of the determined H 2 concentration. After the crossing point, stored O 2 is consumed and H 2 formation occurs, which can be detected accordingly. This means that lambda values should be the same upstream and downstream when all O 2 is consumed. The formation of H 2 takes place, for example, by splitting up water molecules in H 2 and ½ O 2 in the SCR catalyst. Because of the greater cross sensitivity of the sensor, are determined with the lambda values - especially for example a lambda probe - for H 2 as for O 2 , the ratio of concentrations of H 2 to O 2 in the probe is greater than in the exhaust gas in the catalyst and therefore the lambda value smaller ,
Die ermittelte NH3-Menge kann als Eingangsgröße einem NH3-Beladungsmodell für einen stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators vom Abgas durchströmten SCR-Katalysator (SCR = Selective Catalytic Reduction) zugeführt werden.The NH 3 quantity determined can be fed as input variable to a NH 3 -Beladungsmodell for a downstream of the NO x storage catalyst by the exhaust gas flows SCR catalyst (SCR = Selective Catalytic Reduction).
Gemäß der Erfindung wird das NH3 anhand der, für den Zeitraum nach Regenerationsende, aufgespannten Fläche der Lambdawerte vor und nach dem NOx-Speicherkatalysator bilanziert und in einem NH3 Beladungsmodell für einen nachfolgenden SCR Katalysator verwendet.According to the invention, the NH 3 is balanced on the basis of the, for the period after regeneration end, spanned surface of the lambda values before and after the NO x storage catalyst and used in a NH 3 loading model for a subsequent SCR catalyst.
Die Erfindung basiert auf der Eigenschaft des „leeren“ NOx-Speicherkatalysators, bei fortgesetztem unterstöchiemetrischen Motorbetrieb (Fettbetrieb, Lambdawert <1) Ammoniak (NH3) zu produzieren. An einem NOx-Speicherkatalysator wird zunächst vorwiegend durch die sogenannte „Wassergas-Shift“ Reaktion H2 aus CO aber auch mittels „steam reforming“ aus HC hergestellt. Dieses H2 wird zur Reduktion der von den Speicherplätzen des NOx-Speicherkatalysator desorbierten NOx verwendet. Sobald kein NOx mehr gespeichert ist, bzw. teilweise auch schon zuvor, wird aus H2 und NO NH3 gebildet.The invention is based on the property of the "empty" NO x storage catalytic converter to produce ammonia (NH 3) with continued under-engine operation (rich operation, lambda value <1). At a NO x storage catalyst, H 2 from CO is initially produced predominantly by the so-called "water gas shift" reaction but also by "steam reforming" from HC. This H 2 is used for the reduction of of the storage locations of the NO x storage catalyst desorbed NO x. As soon as NO x more is stored, or in some cases before, NH 2 and NO 3 are formed.
Die Erfindung beruht darauf, dass nach dem Ende der Regeneration des NOx-Speicherkatalysators - welche mittels der sogenannten Lambdakreuzung festgestellt wird - die Lambdasonde stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators quasi als H2-Sensor verwendet wird, indem auf der Basis der aufgespannten Differenzfläche der Lambdawerte bzw. O2-Signale der Lambdasonden stromauf- und stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators die H2-Konzentration berechnet wird.The invention is based on the fact that after the end of the regeneration of the NO x storage catalytic converter - which is detected by means of the so-called lambda crossing - the lambda probe downstream of the NO x storage quasi used as H 2 sensor by on the basis of the spanned differential area of the Lambda values or O 2 signals of the lambda probes upstream and downstream of the NO x storage catalyst, the H 2 concentration is calculated.
Die Erfindung macht sich dabei unter anderem die Beobachtung zu nutze, dass die H2-Konzentration proportional zu der durch die zeitlichen Verläufe der Lambdawerte stromaufwärts und stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators aufgespannten Differenzfläche D ist:
Die gebildete NH3 Menge ist wiederum proportional zur vorliegenden H2 Menge:
K1 und K2 sind dabei jeweils Proportionalitätsfaktoren. Zusätzlich wird berücksichtigt, dass die O2-Signale der Lambdasonden hinsichtlich H2 eine höhere Sensitivität aufweisen als zu CO und HC und O2.K1 and K2 are each proportionality factors. In addition, it is considered that the O 2 signals of the lambda probes have a higher sensitivity with respect to H 2 than to CO and HC and O 2 .

Stromaufwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators LNT ist ein erster Lambdasensor L1 und stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators LNT ein zweiter Lambdasensor L2 angeordnet. Grundsätzlich können beliebige Sensoren verwendet werden, mit denen ein Lambdawert ermittelbar ist - Lambdasonden gemäß dem beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel sind dabei eine von mehreren Möglichkeiten. Die Lambdasensoren (Lambdasonden) L1, L2 messen den Restsauerstoffgehalt O2 im Abgas, welcher sich nach Verbrennung aller bis dahin unverbrannten Kraftstoffanteile (z.B. HC, CO) ergibt, um daraus das Verhältnis (Lambdawert) A von Verbrennungsluft zu Kraftstoff einstellen zu können. Ist für diese Oxidation zu wenig Sauerstoff vorhanden, wird dieser über eine in der Lambdasonde integrierte Sauerstoffpumpe in umgekehrter Richtung aus dem Abgas gepumpt. Dieser negative Sauerstoffpumpstrom wird als negative Sauerstoffkonzentration und in weiterer Folge als Lambda kleiner als 1 berechnet. Der Lambdawert dient als Regelfühler für einen nicht weiter dargestellten Lambdaregelkreis.Upstream of the NO x storage LNT a first lambda sensor L1 and downstream of the NO x storage LNT a second lambda sensor L2 is arranged. Basically, any sensors can be used with which a lambda value can be determined - lambda probes according to the described embodiment are one of several possibilities. The lambda sensors (lambda sensors) L1, L2 measure the residual oxygen content O 2 in the exhaust gas, which results after combustion of all previously unburned fuel components (eg HC, CO), in order to be able to set the ratio (lambda value) A from combustion air to fuel. If there is too little oxygen for this oxidation, it is pumped out of the exhaust gas in the reverse direction via an oxygen pump integrated in the lambda probe. This negative oxygen pumping current is calculated as negative oxygen concentration and subsequently as lambda smaller than 1. The lambda value serves as a control sensor for a lambda control circuit (not shown).
Der NOx-Speicherkatalysator LNT dient zur Zwischenspeicherung von im Abgas enthaltenen Stickoxiden (NOx). Zur Zwischenspeicherung der Stickstoffoxide weist der NOx-Speicherkatalysator LNT auf geeigneten Trägern einen Edelmetallkatalysator wie Platin und eine NOx-Speicherkomponente, beispielsweise Barium, auf. In der mageren, das heißt sauerstoffreichen, Atmosphäre werden die Stickstoffoxide unter der Wirkung des Edelmetallkatalysators aufoxidiert, unter Ausbildung von Nitraten wie beispielsweise Bariumnitrat im Katalysator absorbiert und somit aus dem Abgasstrom entfernt. Durch ein regelmäßiges kurzzeitiges „Anfetten“ des Abgasgemisches, also Senken des Lambdawertes λ- laufen diese Reaktionen in der entgegengesetzten Richtung ab, wodurch die NOx-Moleküle wieder in den Abgasstrom abgegeben und durch die in der fetten Atmosphäre vorhandenen reduzierenden Komponenten wie CmHn -unvollständig verbrannte Kohlenwasserstoffe - und/oder CO weiter reduziert werden.The NO x storage catalyst LNT is used for temporary storage of nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas (NO x ). For intermediate storage of the nitrogen oxides, the NO x storage catalyst LNT on suitable carriers on a noble metal catalyst such as platinum and a NO x storage component, for example, barium on. In the lean, that is oxygen-rich, atmosphere, the nitrogen oxides are oxidized under the action of the noble metal catalyst, absorbed to form nitrates such as barium nitrate in the catalyst and thus removed from the exhaust gas stream. By a regular brief "enrichment" of the exhaust gas mixture, ie lowering the lambda value λ- run these reactions in the opposite direction, whereby the NO x molecules are released back into the exhaust stream and by existing in the rich atmosphere reducing components such as C m H n -Incompletely burned hydrocarbons - and / or CO are further reduced.
Ist die Aufnahmekapazität des NOx-Speicherkatalysators LNT erschöpft, so wird seitens der Motorelektronik kurzzeitig ein fettes, reduzierendes Abgasgemisch für einige Sekunden eingestellt (etwa zwei bis zehn Sekunden). In diesem kurzen, fetten Zyklus werden die im Katalysator zwischengespeicherten Stickoxide NOx zu Stickstoff N2 reduziert und damit der NOx-Speicherkatalysator für den nächsten Speicherzyklus vorbereitet. Um den Motorbetrieb im fetten Zyklus möglichst kurz zu halten, ist es im klassischen LNT-Betrieb wesentlich, dass das Reduktionsende möglichst exakt erkannt wird.If the absorption capacity of the NO x storage catalytic converter LNT is exhausted, the engine electronics temporarily set a rich, reducing exhaust gas mixture for a few seconds (about two to ten seconds). In this short, fat cycle, the nitrogen oxides NO x temporarily stored in the catalyst are reduced to nitrogen N 2 and thus the NO x storage catalyst is prepared for the next storage cycle. In order to keep the engine operation as short as possible in the rich cycle, it is essential in classic LNT operation that the reduction end be recognized as accurately as possible.
Im nachgeschalteten SCR-Katalysator werden bei passiver SCR zur weiteren Stickoxidverminderung NOx-Moleküle durch NH3 zu N2 reduziert. Über ein SCR-Katalysatormodell wird dabei die bereitzustellende NH3-Menge ermittelt.In the downstream SCR catalytic converter, with passive SCR, NO x molecules are reduced by NH 3 to N 2 for further nitrogen oxide reduction. An SCR catalyst model is used to determine the amount of NH 3 to be supplied.
Während der Regenrationsphase REG wird die Brennkraftmaschine
Die Regenerationsphase REG teilt sich in zwei Zeitabschnitte auf. Der erste Zeitabschnitt A ist dabei dadurch gekennzeichnet, das der Lambdawert λ1 stromaufwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators LNT kleiner ist, als der Lambdawert λ2 stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators LNT. Im zweiten Zeitabschnitt ist der Lambdawert λ1 stromaufwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators LNT dagegen größer, als der Lambdawert λ2 stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators LNT. Im Kreuzungszeitpunkt K der Verläufe der beiden Lambdawerte λ1, λ2 weisen die mittels der Lambdasensoren L1, L2 ermittelten Lambdawerte λ1, λ2 stromaufwärts und stromabwärts des NOx-Katalysators den gleichen Wert auf.The regeneration phase REG is divided into two time periods. The first time period A is characterized in that the lambda value λ 1 upstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter LNT is smaller than the lambda value λ 2 downstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter LNT. In the second period of time, however, the lambda value λ 1 upstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter LNT is greater than the lambda value λ 2 downstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter LNT. At the crossing time K of the curves of the two lambda values λ 1 , λ 2 , the lambda values λ 1 , λ 2 determined by means of the lambda sensors L1, L2 have the same value upstream and downstream of the NO x catalyst.
Überraschenderweise wurde festgestellt, dass sich ein Zusammenhang zwischen der Differenzfläche D zwischen den Verläufen der Lambdawerte λ1, λ2, beginnend mit dem Kreuzungszeitpunkt K und endend mit dem Bezugszeitpunkt TB, und dem während des Regenerationsvorgangs generierten NH3 ergibt. In einer ersten Variante der Erfindung kommt daher ein empirisch ermittelter Zusammenhang zur Anwendung, der durch eine empirische Formel oder ein entsprechendes Kennfeld hergestellt wird. Dabei können unter anderem folgende Parameter berücksichtigt werden: Temperatur von Abgas und/oder Katalysator (z.B. LNT); Abgasmassenstrom; Motorbetriebsparameter wie Motordrehzahl und -last.Surprisingly, it was found that there is a relationship between the differential area D between the curves of the lambda values λ 1 , λ 2 , starting with the crossing point K and ending with the reference time point T B , and the generated during the regeneration process NH 3 . In a first variant of the invention, therefore, an empirically determined relationship is used, which is produced by an empirical formula or a corresponding characteristic field. Among other things, the following parameters can be taken into account: temperature of exhaust gas and / or catalyst (eg LNT); Exhaust gas mass flow; Engine operating parameters such as engine speed and load.
Die Lambdadifferenzen werden mit empirisch ermittelten Faktoren gewichtet und die gewichteten Differenzen werden zur Differenzfläche D aufintegriert. Nach Erreichen einer gewünschten NH3-Menge stromabwärts wird die Regeneration gestoppt.The lambda differences are weighted with empirically determined factors and the weighted differences are integrated into the differential area D. After reaching a desired amount of NH 3 downstream, the regeneration is stopped.
Eine weitere Variante der Erfindung lautet wie folgt: Sobald alle zwischengespeicherten Stickoxide NOx zu Sticksstoff N2 reduziert und der NOx-Speicherkatalysator LNT also „leer“ ist, wird in diesem Wasserstoff H2 produziert, angedeutet mit Bezugszeichen R2. Der Anteil des Wasserstoffes H2 ist dabei üblicherweise mehr als zehnmal so groß wie der Anteil an Kohlenmonoxid CO, welcher wieder mehr als zehmals so groß ist wie der Anteil an unverbrannten Wasserstoffen HC (Vergleich R3 und R4). Stromaufwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators LNT ist kaum H2 festzustellen (bzw. wird mit dem Restsauerstoff oder dem im LNT gespeicherten O2 umgehend oxidiert). Untersuchungen haben gezeigt, dass die im zweiten Zeitabschnitt B der Regenerationsphase REG erzeugte Wasserstoffkonzentration H2 proportional zur Differenzfläche D zwischen den Verläufen der beiden Lambdawerte λ1, λ2 - beginnend mit dem Kreuzungszeitpunkt K und endend mit dem Bezugszeitpunkt TB - ist.A further variant of the invention is as follows: As soon as all cached nitrogen oxides NO x reduced to nitrogen N 2 and the NO x storage LNT is thus "empty", H 2 is produced in this hydrogen, indicated by reference numeral R2. The proportion of hydrogen H 2 is usually more than ten times as large as the proportion of carbon monoxide CO, which is again more than zehmals as large as the proportion of unburned hydrogen HC (Comparison R3 and R4). Upstream of the NO x storage catalyst LNT hardly H 2 is observed (or is oxidized with the residual oxygen or the O 2 stored in the LNT immediately). Investigations have shown that the hydrogen concentration H 2 generated in the second period B of the regeneration phase REG is proportional to the differential area D between the profiles of the two lambda values λ 1 , λ 2 - starting at the point of intersection K and ending with the reference point T B.
Da der die Differenzen der Lambdawerte somit primär vom Wasserstoff H2 bestimmt wird, kann der Lambdasensor L1, L2 als Wasserstoffsensor eingesetzt werden. Weiters sind zusätzlich unterschiedliche Empfindlichkeiten der Lambdasonde auf Kohlenmonoxid CO und Kohlenwasserstoffe HC bekannt.Since the differences of the lambda values are thus determined primarily by the hydrogen H 2 , the lambda sensor L1, L2 can be used as a hydrogen sensor. In addition, different sensitivities of the lambda probe to carbon monoxide CO and hydrocarbons HC are also known.
Die Konzentration an Wasserstoff H2 kann somit als proportional zur Differenzfläche D angesetzt werden:
Die Produzierung des Wasserstoffes ist vorwiegend auf die sogenannte „Wassergas-Shift“ Reaktion H2 aus CO
Dieses H2 wird zur Reduktion der von den Speicherplätzen des NOx-Speicherkatalysator desorbierten NOx verwendet. Sobald kein NOx mehr gespeichert ist, bzw. teilweise auch schon zuvor, wird aus H2 und NO NH3 gebildet:
Die gebildete NH3 Menge ist wiederum proportional zur vorliegenden H2 Menge:
Die solcherart ermittelte NH3-Menge kann als Eingangsgröße einem bekannten NH3-Beladungsmodell für einen stromabwärts des NOx-Speicherkatalysators vom Abgas durchströmten SCR-Katalysator SCR zugeführt werden.The amount of NH 3 determined in this way can be supplied as an input variable to a known NH 3 charge model for a SCR catalytic converter SCR through which exhaust gas flows downstream of the NO x storage catalytic converter.
