Definitions
- the present disclosure relates generally to an exhaust flow distribution device. More particularly, the disclosure relates to a device capable of altering the exhaust gas velocity profile upstream of an exhaust aftertreatment device.
- Vehicle exhaust components for treating diesel engine exhaust often include a housing (e.g., a muffler body) containing an exhaust aftertreatment substrate (e.g., a catalytic converter substrate, a lean NOx catalyst substrate, an selective catalytic reduction (SCR ) substrate , a NOx trap substrate or a diesel particulate filter substrate).
- the housing often includes either a side inlet or an axially in-line inlet.
- a side inlet is generally aligned perpendicular to a central axis of the housing, while an axially in-line inlet is generally co-axially aligned with a central axis of the housing.
- the natural velocity profile of exhaust gas at the upstream face of an exhaust aftertreatment substrate positioned within a housing having an axial in-line inlet resembles a parabolic curve with the velocity maximum at the center of the flow distribution and decreasing significantly outwardly towards the periphery of the flow distribution.
- the natural velocity profile of exhaust gas at the upstream face of an exhaust aftertreatment substrate positioned within a side inlet housing has a maximum velocity at the half of the substrate located opposite from the inlet side of the housing.
- Non-uniform velocity flow distribution shortens the useful lives of the aftertreatment substrates and reduces their operational efficiency.
- One aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a flow distribution device that is constructed such that it effectively distributes flow without generating unacceptable levels of backpressure.
- the flow distribution device is adapted to distribute flow effectively in a side inlet vehicle exhaust component.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a vehicle exhaust system component assembly having a flow distributor that includes features that are examples of inventive aspects in accordance with the principles of the present disclosure
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along section line 2-2.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of a vehicle exhaust system component 20 (e.g., a muffler or other enclosure in which one or more exhaust aftertreatment devices are contained) having features that are examples of inventive aspects in accordance with the principles of the present disclosure.
- the component 20 includes a main body 22 (e.g., a shell, housing, conduit, tube, etc.) having a side inlet 24 and a co-axial outlet 26.
- the main body 22 can be constructed of one or more pieces.
- the side inlet 24 has an axis 30 that is generally perpendicular to a central axis 32 of the main body 22.
- the outlet 26 and the main body 22 are depicted sharing the same axis 32.
- Aftertreatment devices are shown mounted within the main body 22.
- a catalytic converter 36 and a diesel particulate filter 38 are shown mounted within the main body 22.
- a flow distribution element 40 is shown positioned upstream from the catalytic converter 36.
- Flow arrows 42, 44, and 46 illustrate that the direction of exhaust gas flow is from the inlet 24 to the outlet 26.
- the term "generally perpendicular" means perpendicular or close to perpendicular.
- the flow distribution element 40 is preferably configured to improve exhaust flow uniformity across an upstream face 48 of the catalytic converter 36 without generating significant backpressure in the exhaust system 10.
- the flow distribution device can be used to distribute flow provided to other types of aftertreatment devices such as diesel particulate filters, deNOx catalysts, lean NOx catalyst devices, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst devices, lean NOx traps, or other devices for removing pollutants from the exhaust stream.
- aftertreatment devices such as diesel particulate filters, deNOx catalysts, lean NOx catalyst devices, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst devices, lean NOx traps, or other devices for removing pollutants from the exhaust stream.
- Catalytic converters are commonly used to convert carbon monoxides and hydrocarbons in the exhaust stream into carbon dioxide and water.
- Diesel particulate filters are used to remove particulate matter (e.g., carbon based particulate matter such as soot) from an exhaust stream.
- SCR systems are systems that selectively catalytically promote the reduction of NOx to N 2 .
- Lean NOx catalysts are catalysts capable of selectively catalytically promoting the reduction of NOx to N 2 in an oxygen rich environment with the use of hydrocarbons as reductants. For diesel engines, hydrocarbon emissions are too low to provide adequate NOx conversion, thus hydrocarbons are typically required to be injected into the exhaust stream upstream of the lean NOx catalysts.
- SCR' s use reductants such as urea or ammonia that are injected into the exhaust stream upstream of the SCR' s and that react with NOx at catalyzed surfaces of the SCR' s to cause the reduction of NOx to N 2 and H 2 O.
- reductants such as urea or ammonia that are injected into the exhaust stream upstream of the SCR' s and that react with NOx at catalyzed surfaces of the SCR' s to cause the reduction of NOx to N 2 and H 2 O.
- NOx traps use a material such as barium oxide to absorb NOx during lean burn operating conditions. During fuel rich operations, the NOx is desorbed and the selective reduction of NOx to N 2 in the presence of hydrocarbons is promoted via catalysts within the NOx traps.
- Diesel particulate filters can have a variety of known configurations.
- An exemplary configuration includes a monolith ceramic substrate having a "honey- comb" configuration of plugged passages as described in United States patent No. 4,851,015 that is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Wire mesh configurations can also be used.
- the substrate can include a catalyst.
- Exemplary catalysts include precious metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium, and other types of components such as base metals or zeolites.
- diesel particulate filters can have a particulate mass reduction efficiency greater than 75%. In other embodiments, diesel particulate filters can have a particulate mass reduction efficiency greater than 85%.
- diesel particulate filters can have a particulate mass reduction efficiency equal to or greater than 90%.
- the particulate mass reduction efficiency is determined by subtracting the particulate mass that enters the filter from the particulate mass that exits the filter, and by dividing the difference by the particulate mass that enters the filter.
- Catalytic converters can also have a variety of known configurations. Exemplary configurations include substrates defining channels that extend completely therethrough. Exemplary catalytic converter configurations having both corrugated metal and porous ceramic substrates/cores are described in United States patent No. 5,355,973, that is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- the substrates preferably include a catalyst that promotes an oxidation reaction at the catalytic converter.
- the substrate can be made of a catalyst, impregnated with a catalyst or coated with a catalyst.
- Exemplary oxidation catalysts include precious metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium, and other types of components such as base metals or zeolites.
- a catalytic converter can have a cell density of at least 200 cells per square inch, or in the range of 200-400 cells per square inch.
- a preferred catalyst for a catalytic converter is platinum with a loading level greater than 30 grams/cubic foot of substrate. In other embodiments the precious metal loading level is in the range of 30-100 grams/cubic foot of substrate.
- the catalytic converter can be sized such that in use, the catalytic converter has a space velocity (volumetric flow rate through the catalytic converter/ volume of the catalytic converter) less than 150,000/hour or in the range of50,000-150,000/hour. Referring to FIGS.

- the second edge 54 intersects with the first edge 52 at the first and second sides 23, 25 of the main body 22.
- the first edge 52 of the baffle 41 preferably seats against the inner diameter of the main body 22 at the portion 50 of the main body 22 that is opposite from the location of the inlet 24.
- the reference plane 27 is shown passing through portion 50 at location 51.
- the baffle 41 is located at the bottom of the main body 22 and the inlet is located at the top of the main body 22.
- the baffle 41 is shown having a height that extends upwardly from the bottom of the main body 22 toward the top of the main body 22 (e.g., the height dimension extends generally toward the inlet).
- the baffle 41 is shown aligned along a plane that is generally perpendicular to the central axis 32 of the main body 22.
- the baffle 41 is shown as a flat plate, the baffle 41 could also be curved.
- the exhaust gases are directed into the main body 22 through the inlet 24.
- the exhaust flow encounters the flow distribution device 40.
- the flow distribution element 40 forms a mixing wall/barrier positioned at the portion 50 of the main body 22 upon which flow from the inlet 24 impinges.
- the exhaust gases then flow over/through the flow distribution device 40 to the catalytic converter 36.
- flow is fairly evenly distributed by virtue of the flow distribution element 40.
- the exhaust flow travels through the diesel particulate filter and exits the main body 22 through the outlet 26.

- the main body 22 can also be referred to as a housing, an aftertreatment device housing, an enclosure, a conduit, or like terms.
- the inlet 24 can include a cylindrical inlet pipe, and the main body 22 can also be cylindrical in shape, hi one example embodiment, the inlet 24 can have a diameter in the range of 4-6 inches and the main body can have a diameter in the range of 9-12 inches.
- the flow distribution element 40 is preferably configured to provide generally uniform flow distribution across the upstream face of the catalytic converter 36 without causing additional backpressure. In one example embodiment, the flow distribution element 40 is configured to provide a ⁇ value greater than or equal to 0.95.
- ⁇ 7 is a calculated value representative of flow speed uniformity across the upstream area/face of a substrate (e.g., a catalytic converter substrate, a DPF substrate, an SCR substrate, a NOx absorber substrate, a lean NOx catalyst substrate, etc.).

The dimensions dl, d2 are measured relative to a reference line 31 that is tangent to the inner diameter of the main body 22 at the location 50.
- the dimension dl corresponds to the dimension of the distribution element 40 measured along the central reference plane 27 of the main body from the reference line 31 to the second edge 54 (i.e., at the center of the distribution element 40).
- the dimension d2 corresponds to the dimension of the distribution element 40 measured from the reference line 31 to the second edge 54 at locations that are laterally farthest from the central reference plane 27 (e.g., at peripheral/side portions of the distribution element 40 such as intersection points 56 and 58).
- the dimensions defined between the reference line 31 and the second edge 54 preferably gradually increase as the second edge extends away from the central reference plane 27.
- maximum dimensions are defined at the intersections between the edges 52, 54 of the distribution element 40 at the sides of the main body 22 and a minimum dimension is defined at the central reference plane 27.
