Problem of the present SCR tech. Catalyst Exhaust pipe An example of deposit formationon the face of an SCR catalyst monolith. (By John M.E. Storey et al.) Since the exhaust gas temperature and the residence time in the exhaust pipe is insufficient for complete thermal urea decomposition, a major fraction of the injected urea and byproducts by side reaction remain intact before it enters the SCR catalyst. Stoichiometric imbalance of the urea consumption Degradation of the structural and thermal properties of the catalyst surface

Caldyn’s Nozzle Sovani et al. (Progress in energy and combustion science, 2001) Caldyn’s nozzle Liquid Inlet Typical effervescent atomizer Perforated Aerorator - Two-phase flow through a nozzle chokes at a significantly lower velocity than that at which a single phaseflow would choke - Atomization quality is greatly enhanced by the sudden pressure drop at the nozzle exit Exit Orifice Hole
Previous Work : Flow rate Jewe Schroder et al. 2011 Caldyn’s nozzle Relative high ALR - Generally, effervescent nozzle is operated with 0.1 ~ 0.3 of ALR

Configuration of Test Nozzle *Area ratio = Nozzle Configuration Spray Condition [실험조건 (540 cases)] - Exit orificeDia. (3) - AeroratorDia. (6) - Injection Pressure(3) - Liquid flow rate(10)
Comparison of Mass Flow rate *Area ratio = • - At the same liquid mass flow rate, air mass flow rate increases with increasing of exit orifice diameter.
Droplet Size Measurement - Compared with Caldyn’s data, it has same tendency. - SMD is not a large difference in the value of ALR ratio in 0.3 or more.
Droplet Size Measurement SMD is not affected by area ratio of an efferverscent nozzle.
Droplet Size Measurement SMD is not affected by area ratio of an efferverscent nozzle.
Summary • [Conclusion] • The liquid flow rate of the effervescent nozzle used in this study is affected by the diameter of the exit orifice. • It was found that the change of the liquid and air flow rate according to the aerorator diameter was not large at the same exit orifice diameter. • In the case of ALR above 0.3, there is almost no change in SMD even if the air flow rate increases. • In the efferverscent nozzle, the droplet size is not affected by the area ratio. • [Application] • From the results of this study, the droplet size can be predicted according to various ALR and area ratios. • It can be applied to Urea-SCR nozzle design technology according to various engine power.
