Abstract
For pollutant emissions predictive physical modeling in diesel engines, three key points have to be taken into account:
-
the suitability of the physico-chemical mechanisms to describe the important processes in the desired range of operating conditions;
-
the sensitivity of these mechanisms and the corresponding models to errors in input parameters; and
-
the accuracy when determining the input parameters.
This chapter takes the NOx formation/destruction process modeling as an example to illustrate the most important aspects of this kind of modeling.
