として表われるからである。[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a device for measuring non-methane hydrocarbons in automobile exhaust gas. Conventionally, automobile exhaust gas has been regulated based on total hydrocarbon concentration, but since methane present in exhaust gas is unrelated to photochemical smog, there is a trend toward regulating it based on non-methane hydrocarbon concentration, which excludes methane from total hydrocarbons. It is in. Methods for measuring non-methane include a method in which methane is separated using gas chromatography, and a selective combustion method that takes advantage of the fact that the combustion temperature of methane is higher than that of other hydrocarbons. However, the equipment for the former is expensive;
Since it is essentially a batch measurement, it is not suitable for actual verification work. On the other hand, the selective combustion method selectively burns hydrocarbons other than methane in a reactor, detects only methane with a flame ionization detector (FID detector), and sends untreated sample gas to the FID detector. This method detects all hydrocarbons and determines the concentration of non-methane hydrocarbons based on the difference between the two. It is cheaper than gas chromatography and allows for continuous measurement. However, when directly measuring automobile exhaust gas, it is not possible to directly apply conventional equipment in which the sample gas is the atmosphere. This is because, as mentioned above, in the selective combustion method, since hydrocarbons other than methane are burned in the reactor, oxygen is required, and unlike when the sample gas is air,
In the case of automobile exhaust gas, when the air-fuel ratio becomes rich, the oxygen concentration is low and combustion becomes incomplete, which appears as a measurement error.

This is what we are trying to provide.

示している。 FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of the present invention. When the sample gas is automobile exhaust gas, if the air-fuel ratio is on the rich side, the amount of oxygen will be small and combustion will not be completed in the reactor 5, resulting in a measurement error. In order to prevent this, an oxygen gas flow path 18 is connected to the second sample gas flow path 3 in front of the reactor 5, and the structure is such that oxygen is mixed with automobile exhaust gas and then sent to the reactor. After oxygen leaves the oxygen cylinder 19, it passes through a regulator 20, a pressure gauge 21, and a capillary tube 22.
After passing through a flow rate regulator consisting of a gas flow controller, the sample gas is mixed with the automobile exhaust gas flowing through the second sample gas flow path 3. It is also possible to use the atmosphere as an oxygen source. Note that the same numbers as in FIG. 1 indicate the same parts.

However, as shown in Figure 4, it is necessary to ensure that the oxygen concentration is 15% or more. In Figure 4, the horizontal axis is oxygen concentration,
The vertical axis represents combustion efficiency, and curve 26 is
C 2 H 6 10000ppm-C, curve 27 is CH 4 10000ppm
-C oxidation efficiency is shown. Since hydrocarbons other than C 2 H 6 are more combustible, we can consider separating C 2 H 6 and CH 4 . Although oxides of copper and manganese, platinum, palladium, etc. are used as catalysts, in the case of FIG. 4, hopcalite (mainly oxides of copper and manganese) was used as a catalyst.
