Study on Influence of Core Structure on Catalytic Converter Performance Using CFD
In recent years, as the automotive industry is growing, one of the major hope for future vehicles is to meet emissions regulations. Automobiles pollute the air, and clean-air laws have made Catalytic Converters a legal requirement because they convert harmful pollutants from an engine's exhaust into cleaner emissions. The device works with the principle of a catalyst, something that causes or speeds up a chemical reaction without itself being changed. But the presence of a catalytic converter increases the exhaust back pressure which has an indirect effect on the engine efficiency ie engine efficiency decreases, thus increasing fuel consumption. The performance of a catalytic converter is substantially affected by the flow distribution inside the substrate, a uniform flow distribution can increase its efficiency, lower the pressure drop and optimize engine performance. The flow distribution in a catalytic converter assembly 15 is governed by the geometry configurations of the inlet and outlet cone section, the substrate, and exhaust gas compositions, and therefore a better design of the catalytic converter is very important. This Project deals with the fundamental understanding and study of complex processes taking place involving fluid flow, pressure, and velocity profiles in the catalytic converter using ANSYS WORKBENCH 2022 R1. The main objective of our analysis is to determine the most effective and optimum design of a Catalytic Converter
