Popis: To comply with stringent NOx emission regulations, automotive diesel engines require advanced aftertreatment catalytic systems, such as lean NOx traps (LNTs). Considering that test bench and chassis dyno experimental campaigns are costly and require a vast use of resources for the generation of data; therefore, reliable and computationally efficient simulation models are essential in order to identify the most promising technology mix to satisfy emission regulations. In the literature, a large number of simulation models for LNT kinetics can be found, realized for laboratory-scale samples and validated over synthetic gas bench (SGB) experimental tests, while full-size models validated over engine-dyno driving cycle data, crucial for industrial applications, are missing. In the current work, a simulation model of an LNT device is built to predict NOx storage and reduction, starting from SGB laboratory tests and finally validated over driving cycle data. The experiments including light-off, NOx storage and ...
