The increasing use of passenger vehicles over the past decades has caused an increase in harmful exhaust gas emissions which give rise to environmental and health problems. This problematic has led governments to establish very stringent emission limits. The emission restrictions require more performing after-treatment systems. Among many other solutions, analysing and optimising the flow impact on the conversion efficiency is an important step towards the solution of the complex engineering problem. Detailed velocity, temperature and concentration distributions are very difficult to measure experimentally. Numerical simulations can provide additional information to understand the interaction of flow distribution and conversion efficiency. ...
