Definitions
- the invention relates to an exhaust system for internal combustion engines according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such exhaust systems with exhaust gas converter are e.g. from DE 35 36 315 A1. known.
- the invention is based on the technical problem of an exhaust system of the initially type to make available, in which after a cold start of the engine a quickly reaching the light-off temperature in the Interior of the exhaust converter is possible.
- the exhaust system has the features in claim 1.
- Catalyst bodies are very common in two technical versions: Ceramic monolith containing a large number of longitudinal flow channels and metal catalyst bodies, in which also a large number of longitudinal flow channels is present, these flow channels by the mating of a corrugated sheet with a flat sheet metal and spiral-like winding of this pairing are made. Often they are called the Flow channels, when viewed in the axial direction, "cells", and the term “cell density” denotes the number of cells per unit area in the front view of the Catalyst body.
- the indication of cell density naturally means as well an indication of the flow cross-section of each individual cell or each individual Flow channel, in addition, the wall thickness between adjacent Flow channels is received.
- Catalytically active material is deposited on the walls of the flow channels.
- the standard technique is to use a so-called washcoat as a liquid suspension, the washcoat in particular a suspension of fine ceramic particles (typically aluminum oxide) in a suspension liquid is. After drying the washcoat has a porous, strong Surface-increasing coating on the walls of the flow channels.
- the actual catalyst particles typically the precious metals in particular Platinum, palladium and rhodium, will either be final on the Washcoat deposited or applied in form contained in the washcoat suspension.
- Mass flow e.g., in kg / s
- temperature e.g., in M / s
- flow rate e.g., in M / s
- From a given Mass flow at a given temperature results in a (mean) flow velocity (at a considered flow cross-section). If at held constant mass flow increases or decreases the temperature increased because of the associated density change of the exhaust gas, the flow rate or humiliates.
- the exhaust system is in the inlet pipe of the exhaust gas converter arranged a swirl generator, which leaves a central flow path.
- the swirl generator can be designed so that at a low range of the occurring flow velocities (one could also say: “at one low portion of the occurring mass flows "or” at a low sub-range of the occurring exhaust gas temperatures ", whereby the mutual Dependence of the mentioned parameters is to be considered) the exhaust gas predominantly or even almost completely only through the free central flow path flows in the inlet pipe and from there into the end face of the inner region.
- a "start" of a catalyst body is the achievement of an operating point in which the conversion of the exhaust components to be converted widely used.
- To start is primarily the achievement the light-off temperature required.
- the light-off temperature can be passed through Select parameters that are related to the washcoat, compare more detailed explanations below.
- Of particular influence is the number of so-called catalytically "active centers" of the coating of the flow channels. In the larger catalyst activity of the invention indoors Outside, in principle, there are a larger number of active ones Centers.
- the invention provides an exhaust system, in which the exhaust gas converter preferably flows in its interior when the flow rate of the exhaust gas is in a low partial range the occurring flow velocities is (especially typical: Idling, but also operating at fairly low speeds, especially at not widely opened throttle).
- the primarily flowed through interior area The catalyst body heats up much faster than if the entire catalyst body would have to be heated. The light-off temperature is indoors reached faster.
- the greater catalyst activity favors the exhaust gas conversion in this "warm-up state" of the exhaust system. Especially the behavior after a cold start of the engine is significantly improved.
- the greater catalyst activity in the interior leads to that in the described states with primary flow through the interior the exhaust gas conversion compared to the situation without increasing the catalyst activity, is favored. In the situation of the primary flow of the Outside, the interior is spared.
- the interior with larger cell density geometric with the interior area with greater catalyst activity is identical (as is the outdoor area), it is noted that one Basically, it can also form so that the interior area with greater cell density a smaller or larger frontal area than the interior area with larger ones Catalyst activity has (as the outdoor area).
- the invention is not limited to that of the catalyst body in only two Subareas, as they have been described as indoor and outdoor are, has. There are also possible versions, where more than can distinguish two sub-areas, which in terms of catalyst activity and, if necessary, differentiate cell density.
- the exhaust gas converter is designed so that at least 40%, especially preferably at least 50% and most preferably at least 60%, the incoming exhaust gas flow through the interior of the catalyst body flow when the exhaust stream has a flow rate in a lower Part of the range of flow rates occurring during operation in the exhaust system Has.
- Said lower portion preferably comprises 0 to 10%, more preferably 0 to 20%, and most preferably 0 to 30% of the total range of flow velocities occurring.
- the exhaust gas converter is designed so that at least 80%, especially preferably at least 90%, of the inflowing exhaust gas flow through the exterior of the catalyst body flow when the exhaust gas flow is a flow velocity in an upper portion of the operation in the exhaust system has occurring range of flow velocities.
- the named Upper portion preferably comprises 80 to 100%, more preferably 70 to 100% of the total range of flow velocities occurring. What the area size of the end face of the inner portion of the catalyst body When this area size is within the range, it is preferred that which starts with the cross-sectional area of the free central flow path up to the total flow area of the downstream end of the inlet pipe goes. But it is also possible, the end face of the inner area even greater do.
- the swirl generator with its outside on the inside of the Attached inlet tube, particularly preferably welded. That way is one outside flow around the swirl generator excluded.
- the swirl generator has been produced integrally with the feed pipe, in particular by casting or by high pressure forming.
- the swirl generator an annular ring of vanes.
- the swirl generator at least one helical longitudinally the inflow pipe extending flow guide on; the idiom "along the inlet pipe” should not mean “along the entire inlet pipe", but only the longitudinal orientation of the flow guide play.
- the number of vanes or the flow guide has a considerable Influence on the uniformity of the generated centrifugal field.
- a bigger one Number causes a uniform centrifugal field.
- the swirl generator is designed with overlapping vanes, one has even at low flow velocities a tangible flow resistance in the swirl generator; the outflow is particularly pronounced only too the interior of the catalyst body. On the other hand, one has at high flow rates a relatively high flow resistance.
- the angle of attack of the guide vanes or the flow guide has a special great influence on the strength of the generated twist.
- Strong employee Guide vanes guide e.g. even at medium flow velocities to one so strong swirl that the part of the exhaust gas flow to the inflow of the interior the catalyst body is very small.
- the angle of attack is measured relative to the axial direction of the inlet pipe.
- the height of the guide vanes or the flow guide has particular influence on the Proportion of flow at low flow rates to the interior to flow of the catalyst body.
- the free central flow path becomes a larger part of the flow to the Flow inside the catalyst body.
- the distance between the swirl generator and the end face of the inner area of the catalyst body has considerable influence. The larger this distance is, the more the flow of the outdoor area is favored.
- the inner region of the catalyst body has an end face, the occupies at most 20% of the total end face of the catalyst body, especially preferably at most 15% of the total end face and most preferably at most 10%.
- the percentage of the total face area chosen for a specific product is a compromise between the safest possible flow predominantly indoors only, especially when warming up the internal combustion engine, on the one hand, and the best possible protection of the interior at high load conditions of the internal combustion engine and / or high exhaust gas temperatures, on the other hand.
- the area-related cell density in the interior is at least 1.2 times the cell density outdoors, more preferably at least 1.5 times and most preferably at least 1.7 times.
- a larger precious metal loading provided, particularly preferred an at least 20% greater noble metal loading, and most preferably at least 30% greater precious metal loading than outdoors.
- a finer noble metal dispersion provided, particularly preferred an at least 20% finer noble metal dispersion, and most preferably at least 30% finer precious metal dispersion than outdoors.
- an at least 20% finer noble metal dispersion and most preferably at least 30% finer precious metal dispersion than outdoors.
- the finer the noble metal dispersion used the greater the risk of aging by sintering the active centers at high exhaust gas temperatures.
- the interior of the catalyst body is only on a partial length with greater catalyst activity than the outdoor area.
- the interior in his To make cross-section larger than it is using its entire length would have to do with greater catalyst activity, and instead only a partial length of the interior with greater catalyst activity.
- a special suitable method for applying the washcoat on a partial length of the inner area is that you put the catalyst body on top of a piece of pipe and feed the suspension from below through the tube until it has reached a certain height in the interior of the catalyst body. Subsequently the excess suspension is blown down.
- the coating of the catalyst body with the washcoat suspension can in a dive with subsequent blowing or in several dives be carried out successively with subsequent blowing, wherein in the latter case, the coating is built up in several steps.
- at the interior of the catalyst body can be either based on a Washcoat similar to the outdoor applied Washcoat, one or several Washcoatlagen in particular for generating the larger catalyst activity muster.
- the inlet pipe preferably has in the interest of effective generation of the swirling flow a circular cross-section.
- a circular cross section is also for the exhaust converter housing overall preferred because this is for a spiral Flow provides the best flow conditions.
- a substantially elliptical configuration of the housing cross-section is preferred.
- a substantially elliptical cross-sectional configuration is with mufflers, which are mounted under the floor of motor vehicles, quite often encountered. As with mufflers is the lower the exhaust gas converter Height compared to a cross-sectionally identical exhaust gas converter with circular Emphasize cross section as an advantage.
- the longitudinal central axis of the inner region of the catalyst body with respect to the longitudinal central axis of the overall catalyst body to arrange staggered.
- typical examples are non-central positioning of the inlet pipe and inclined inlet of the inlet pipe called in the housing.
- the end face of the interior of the catalyst body should be positioned so that through the free central flow path flowing exhaust stream or not detected by the swirl flow Part of the exhaust gas flow within the end face of the inner region on the catalyst body meets.
- a targeted flow resistance provide for increased training, in particular in the form of a local constriction the flow cross-section or in the form of local flow brakes.
- a specifically designed to increase the flow resistance for the interior training favors flow towards the exterior of the catalyst body (as in principle with the measure "larger cell density in the interior area" of the Case is) and vice versa.
- Targeted the flow resistance increasing training are an extremely effective way to achieve virtually perfect switching to achieve the swirl generator / free central flow path, where in this Case in the design of the swirl generator has gained more freedom.
- an inner pipe piece in front of the front side of the inner portion of the catalyst body is positioned, which are preferably substantially the same Diameter as the interior has.
- the inner pipe piece favors the inflow to the interior at low flow rates.

- Fig. 2 illustrates with arrows, which can be seen as an illustration of the flow rate or as an illustration of the mass flow can.
- the swirl generator 40 is in function (especially the incoming exhaust gas stream 80 no longer so easily almost in the total central flow path 50 can flow, because a strong nozzle-like acceleration would have to take place); when flowing through the swirl generator 40th impinged swirl flow exerts centrifugal forces on the flow, causing the flow in the region of the extension section 24a goes radially outward.
