Experimental Investigations on the Effect of Flow Area of Nano Coated Catalytic Converter

Now a days the global warming and air pollution are big issue in the world. The more amount of air pollution is due to emissions from an internal combustion engine. Catalytic converter plays a vital role in reducing harmful gases. In this study, the nanocoated catalytic converter efficiency was focused. The flow area of catalytic converter plays a vital role in the conversion of the harmful gases NOx, CO & UHC. The wire mesh coated with Alumina and Ti02 was the conversion medium. By varying the length of the wire mesh, the flow area was changed. The length of the wire mesh substrate was varied by 100mm, 150mm and 200mm. It was experimentally found that the increase in flow area reduces the exhaust emissions smoke, CO, HC and NOx.
