Performance Analysis of Catalytic Converter
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
The source of pollution and global warming is air pollution. It is to be noted that air pollution is mainly caused by the toxic gases from the exhaust of the automobiles. Only 30 percentage of the fuel is converted into energy source to run the engine remaining 70 percentage of fuel is of un burnt hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides. This toxic content is reduced by the invention of catalytic converter. Here the performance of the catalytic converter is studied and analysis of fluid flow is done. This project deals with the different inlet cone angle of catalytic converter to study the amount of conversion taking place inside the converter after maintaining uniform flow. The uniform flow inside the converter is achieved by increasing the cone angle of the converter. By utilizing the maximum amount of substrate life span of the converter will be increased. It helps to design a better converter model so that it may beneficial for the customer in performance.
