  • the present invention relates to an exhaust after treatment system. More particularly, the present invention relates to a mixer assembly for an exhaust after treatment system, and an exhaust after treatment system for diesel engines having said mixer assembly.
  • Diesel engines are the preferred means of producing torque for use in a wide range of applications ranging from uses in transportation such as heavy-duty trucks and trains, off-road agricultural and mining equipment to the large scale production of onsite electrical power to name a few.
  • the virtually unmatched power to mass ratios of diesel engines and the relative safety of the diesel fuel makes diesel engines the preferred choice for use in applications such as long-haul trucks, tractors, earth movers, combines, surface mining equipment, non-electric locomotives, high capacity emergency power generators and the like.
  • Diesel engines operate at high internal temperature.
  • One consequence of the high operating temperatures of diesel engines is that at least some of the nitrogen present in the engine at the moment of combustion combines with oxygen to form oxides of nitrogen (NO x ) including species such as nitrogen monoxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (N0 2 ) as exhaust gas.
  • NO x oxides of nitrogen
  • Other harmful exhaust gases that are produced include carbon monoxide (CO) and unburned hydrocarbons (HC).
  • CO carbon monoxide
  • HC unburned hydrocarbons
  • diesel engine exhausts also contain particulate matter.
  • stringent regulatory systems such as Bharat Stage VI (BS VI) require that there is reduction of such harmful substances from the diesel engine exhaust, and that harmless substances such as oxygen and water are released in the environment.
  • the devices that are typically used in exhaust after treatment system to reduce the aforementioned harmful substances from diesel engine exhausts consists of Diesel Oxidation Catalysts (DOC), particulate matter (PM) filters, for example, Diesel particulate filters (DPF) and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalysts.
  • DOC Diesel Oxidation Catalysts
  • PM particulate matter filters
  • DPF Diesel particulate filters
  • SCR Selective Catalytic Reduction
  • the Selective Catalytic Reduction provides an effective means of reducing NOx emissions from Diesel engines through reaction with NH 3 on SCR catalyst.
  • the process normally involves injecting aqueous solution of urea - Urea Water Solution (UWS) as a spray before SCR.
  • UWS Urea Water Solution
  • This aqueous urea spray strikes on exhaust tube surfaces & causes local cooling of the wall. Deposition of droplets and wall film formation can occur if the surface temperature decreases below a critical temperature. Evaporation from the wall film leads to further cooling and an increase in risk of formation of melamine complexes.
  • the main objective of this invention is to provide an exhaust after treatment system wherein high exhaust temperature can help to reduce deposition phenomena.
  • Another objective of this invention is to increase the mixing length between DOC and SCR as compared to axial distance between them for complete vaporization of sprayed fluid medium droplets.
  • Another objective of this invention is to generate swirl and turbulence for enhanced mixing between injected fluid medium and exhaust gas resulting in better vaporization of the fluid medium.

  • the one or more turbulence generating components include one or more deflector walls that divides the helical pathway downstream of the static mixer into two or more sub-passages, and wherein the one or more deflector walls has multiple protruding guide vanes that deflect the flow of exhaust gas.
  • an exhaust gas after treatment system for a diesel engine comprising an exhaust gas pipe, through which the exhaust gases from engine enters the after treatment system, a DOC assembly in fluid communication with the exhaust gas pipe, a mixer assembly as described above, in fluid communication with and located downstream of the DOC assembly, and an injection device housed in the mixer assembly, where the injection device injects metered quantity of a fluid medium into the exhaust gas stream flow in the helical passage of the mixer assembly.

  • EAT Exhaust After Treatment system is total system to convert harmful gases and filter particulate matter from engine exhaust that includes DOC, SCR or SDPF with inlet and outlet pipes.
  • Fluid Communication The term fluid communication or the phrase“in fluid communication with” herein refers to two or more entities are so connected to allow a fluid (such as, exhaust gas) to flow between them.
  • the sentence“the DOC and the mixer assembly are in fluid communication with each other” means that a fluid (such as, exhaust gas) can flow between the DOC and the mixer assembly.
  • the present invention suggests an optimized way of installing an exhaust after treatment system (hereinafter referred to as the EAT system) with a diesel engine, where high exhaust temperature can help to reduce deposition phenomena.
  • This includes close coupled DOC, SCR or SCR coated DPF (SDPF) with a mixer assembly between DOC and SCR or SDPF.
  • SDPF SCR coated DPF
  • the EAT system and associated methods as described herein can significantly improve ammonia uniformity at SCR/SDPF face by breaking and evaporating fluid medium droplets (for example, aqueous solution of urea, introduced as a spray in the EAT system after DOC) using the mixer assembly.
  • the mixer assembly increases particle residence time by significantly enhancing flow path length between DOC and SCR/SPDF and by causing secondary turbulence using double cross swirl exhaust flow.
  • hot exhaust gas from engine enters the EAT system through an inlet pipe. It then enters DOC wherein oxidation of CO and HC takes place. Downstream of DOC, exhaust gas enters the mixer assembly.
  • distance between DOC and SCR or SDPF is increased by guiding major part of the flow of exhaust gases through a helical/elliptical passage which is oriented substantially transverse to the axial direction of the flow.
  • This passage is created with the help of two baffles; one perforated baffle located immediately downstream of the DOC and one baffle upstream of the SCR/SPDF.
  • the helical passage greatly increases the mixing length as compared to axial distance between DOC and SCR/SPDF, thus ensuring maximum residence time for vaporization of droplets of a fluid medium (for example, aqueous solution of urea, UWS, introduced in the EAT system as a spray after DOC).
  • a fluid medium for example, aqueous solution of urea, UWS, introduced in the EAT system as a spray after DOC.
  • the perforated baffle located downstream of the DOC has a significantly large opening to direct major part of the flow into the helical passage.
  • the remaining part of the flow follows an axial route passing through the perforations of the perforated baffle to mix with the flow passing through the helical passage.
  • Turbulence is generated due to mixing of the two flows.
  • the turbulence enhances the vaporization rate of the fluid medium.
  • An injection device is oriented such that it will inject metered quantity of fluid and the injected fluid impacts a static mixer device approximately in a perpendicular direction to plane of entry into the static mixer device.
  • the static mixer device located in the helical passage consists of a number of vanes distributed along the perimeter of a section of the helical passage in different configurations, which may include, but not limited to, radial placement of vanes or parallel placement of vanes or oblique placement of vanes. Radial vanes are supported by one or more number of concentrically placed support rings, thus dividing the static mixer device into small channels for gas to flow through.
  • the construction of the vanes is such that the leading edge of the vanes is along the flow, thus preventing separation of the flow from the vane, and the trailing edge is at an angle to the flow direction, thus creating a local angle of attack with respect to the flow direction and creating a swirl at the exit from the vane.
  • This swirl further enhances the turbulence in the flow, optimizing the mixing of injected fluid with the exhaust gas.
  • the larger droplet of injected fluid medium upon impacting with hot surface of the vanes of the static mixer device breaks up into smaller droplet and as a consequence, vaporization rate of the fluid medium droplet increases and thus better mixing of the fluid medium with exhaust gas is achieved.
  • the helical passage downstream of the static mixer device is divided further into two or more channels by placement of one or more walls in the passage and along the flow direction.
  • These wall/walls have perforations and protruding guide vanes such that the flow is diverted through the perforations.
  • the guiding vanes are oriented such that the alternate vanes divert flow in opposite direction so as to promote cross flow through the wall.
  • the protruding vanes can be imparted twists to divert flow towards the perforated baffle downstream of DOC, or the baffle upstream of the SCR/SPDF.
  • a number of configurations comprising of different protruding vane lengths, angle of orientation with respect to wall, and twist imparted to the vanes can be optimized.
