Abstract

The experimental study was carried out on the engine test bench for the independently developed urea-SCR aftertreatment system according to the European steady state cycle. Its steady emission characteristics of gaseous pollutions and particulate matter were obtained. For transient state conditions, the correction factors were proposed based on relevant studies. Study results reveal that the catalyst temperature and space velocity are key factors for urea-SCR system performance, and their importance varies as engine operation conditions; urea-SCR reduces HC and NOx emissions, but causing CO emission increasing meantime; the vanadium based SCR catalyst reduces partially PM emission and changes PM size distribution; introduction of load ramp ratio may correct appropriately the transient NOx emissions from the engine, thus lessening the NH3 slip effectively.
