Abstract

PURPOSE:To burn and regenerate an exhaust gas filter in uniform temp. distribution by making the inner diameter of an inlet side of exhaust gas larger than the inner diameter of an outlet side thereof and making the passage of exhaust gas a tapered shape in the respective cells of a honeycomb structural form. CONSTITUTION:An exhaust gas filter 1 is constituted by alternately providing closed parts 4, 5 in the end parts of the cells of a honeycomb structural form formed with plural cells 2 by porous ceramic. Further the inner diameter of an inlet side of exhaust gas is made larger than the inner diameter of an outlet side thereof and passages 6, 7 of exhaust gas are made to a tapered shape. Therefore in case of collecting soot 8 incorporated in exhaust gas of a diesel engine, the areas of the cell walls 3 of the downstream side are decreased and the amount of soot to be deposited is decreased. As a result, at a time for burning and regenerating the exhaust gas filter 1, the quantity of heat generated by the combustion of soot in the downstream side is made little and thereby the excessive temp. elevation in the downstream side can be prevented.

Conventional technology Collecting soot emitted from diesel engines −
As diesel exhaust gas filters for this purpose, filters using metal wire mesh coated with alumina, ceramic foam filters with a porous structure using a foaming agent, and honeycomb-shaped ceramic honeycomb filters have been devised. Among them, ceramic honeycomb filters, which have a soot collection efficiency of 90 coefficients or higher and have low pressure loss in exhaust gas through the filter, are considered promising as filters for removing soot from exhaust gas. A diesel exhaust gas filter made of a ceramic honeycomb filter has a honeycomb structure consisting of a large number of cells made of cordierite, mullite, or the like as a main component, and constructed by extrusion molding, paper making, or the like. Both ends of the honeycomb structure are made of a material with a very low porosity, such as cement, having a length of about 1
They are alternately occluded with 011B material. These upstream and downstream blockages divide the cell into an inlet and an outlet exhaust gas passage, and almost all of the soot in the exhaust gas is collected on the cell walls. When the engine is operated, soot gradually accumulates, increasing the pressure loss at the diesel exhaust gas filter and causing a reduction in engine performance. Therefore, in order to maintain good engine performance, a method is used to regenerate the diesel exhaust gas filter by burning the soot once a certain amount of soot has accumulated. Therefore, a diesel exhaust gas filter is desired that can smoothly burn soot and allow the filter to be easily regenerated any number of times.

As shown in FIG. 3, in the diesel exhaust gas filter 10, part of the soot in the exhaust gas is deposited on the inlet end 11,
Most of the cell wall 14 of the inlet exhaust gas passage 13 in the cell 12
is deposited on. Here, when the soot accumulated at the inlet end 11 is ignited, combustion spreads at the inlet end 11, and at the same time, the soot propagates to the soot accumulated on the cell wall 14 of the inlet exhaust gas passage 13 and flows downstream inside the cell 12. burn towards. The soot deposited on the cell wall 14 of the inlet exhaust gas passage 13 is burned at the upstream cell wall, where the pressure loss is small, and the soot passes through the cell wall in this part and flows from the inlet exhaust gas passage 13 to the outlet exhaust gas passage 1.
The amount of exhaust gas flowing through cell wall 5 increases, and the amount of exhaust gas passing through the cell wall on the downstream side decreases.

燃焼がセル12内を下流に向かって伝播することにとも

This tendency becomes even more pronounced as combustion propagates downstream within the cell 12.

Therefore, when the soot deposited on the cell wall 14 on the downstream side burns, the amount of exhaust gas that passes while the same amount of soot is burned is smaller than that on the upstream side, so the cooling effect of the exhaust gas is small. As a result, the temperature during combustion becomes higher in the cell wall 14 on the downstream side than on the upstream side. Therefore, if the temperature at the inlet side is set to a temperature suitable for regenerating the exhaust gas filter 10, the combustion temperature at the outlet side will become too high, causing problems such as melting of the cell walls 14 and destruction due to thermal shock. Ta. When regeneration was repeated several times, a problem arose in which soot leaked from the melted and destroyed parts and was discharged to Osara.

Effect: With the above configuration, the area of the cell wall 13 on the downstream side of the exhaust gas filter 10 is smaller than the area on the upstream side, and therefore the amount of soot deposited is also reduced. Since the flow rate of exhaust gas is the same on both the upstream and downstream sides, the amount of heat generated by the combustion of soot is small on the downstream side, and the cooling effect of the exhaust gas remains the same.As a result, the combustion rate on the downstream side is lower than that on the upstream side. The rise in temperature can be reduced. Therefore, excessive temperature rise on the downstream side of the cell 14 can be prevented.
