Simulation of Oxidation Catalyst Converter for After-Treatment in Diesel Engines

In the diesel engine after-treatment system of motor vehicles, Diesel Oxidation Catalytic (DOC) converter is used to purify hydrocarbons (HCs) consisting of oil and fuel residue, and Carbon Monoxide (CO) from the exhaust gas. The exhaust gas flowing through DOC converter experiences chemical reactio...
