The denitrification process of NH3-SCR system of diesel engine was studied to clarify key factors
affecting denitrification of diesel engines under complex operating conditions
and to guide SCR development and operation. Based on the data of a diesel
engine operating under world harmonized transient cycle (WHTC), GT-Power model was built and verified. Then the rules and key
influencing factors of SCR denitrification process were explored through the
simulation that coupled gas dynamics and chemical reaction mechanism. The
results show that the NOx reduction efficiency of NH3-SCR system under cold start conditions obviously increases with the increase of
exhaust temperature, the reaction gradually stabilizes when the temperature is
higher than 210 ℃, and the average reduction efficiency
is 99.88% after 600 s. In contrast, the NOx reduction reaction starts quickly under hot start condition and the
average reduction efficiency is 99.54% after 600 s. In addition, the urea
injection amount has a greater impact on NOx reduction, and too much urea injection will result in ammonia
residual and hence ammonia escape.
