Abstract

For continuously regenerative PM collecting system which adopted thermally stable SiC DPF and electrical heater which was placed upstream of the filter and driven by well constructed control logic, PM oxidation characteristics were investigated varying air flow rate, amounts of PM accumulated on the DPF and filter inlet temperature in order to get optimized PM regeneration performance. This study showed that the operating condition of air flow rate 70 lpm, high PM loading around 30g and filter inlet temperature $700^{\circ}C$ with heat insulation was effective in achieving high regeneration efficiency. Also, in this condition, we could decrease the electric energy consumption by reducing the regeneration time.
