Abstract

A three-way catalyst substrate for domestic passenger car satisfies the design criteria for exhaust gas exchange and pressure drop but does not have satisfactory thermal fatigue performance. Prefracture faults in this three-way catalyst substrate has often been discovered in vehicle repair or vehicle inspection facilities. This paper presents a thermal fatigue performance estimation method for a three-way catalyst substrate using a probabilistic strength reduction factor model. This method is superior to the thermal fatigue performance estimation method for a three-way catalyst substrate that uses a deterministic strength model.

국내 승용차용 삼원촉매담체의 경우 배기가스 변환 효율이나 압력 강하 등은 엔진 효율 측면에서 만족되고 있지만 열적 내구성은 요구 내구 수명을 만족시키지 못하여 차량정비현장에서 상당한 파손사고가 발견되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 현상의 원인을 밝히기 위하여 국내 승용차용 삼원촉매담체에서 발생되는 열응력을 온도측정자료와 단순한 열응력 모델을 이용하여 구하였으며 열피로 성능은 확정론적 강도가 아닌 확률과 크기 및 피로 인자를 고려한 확률론적 설계 강도로 평가함으로서 확정론적 설계 강도에 의한 열피로 성능 평가 방법을 극복하였다.
