Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the tail gas treatment technical field, specifically relates to a end cover side -in type mixer. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous upgrading of domestic diesel vehicle emission regulations, more stringent requirements are put forward for the automobile exhaust aftertreatment system and its core component mixer. As a key component in the aftertreatment system, the performance of the mixer directly affects the emission of NOx.

[0003] The mixer needs to ensure that the exhaust gas and the reducing agent (such as urea solution) are fully mixed to improve the conversion efficiency of the SCR system. The mixer also needs to have good heat exchange performance to ensure that the urea solution is rapidly vaporized and fully mixed with the exhaust gas during the injection process, which helps to improve the conversion efficiency of the SCR system and reduce urea consumption. Since the "national six" standard has more stringent emission limits for low temperature and low load conditions, and the injection amount is increased, the risk of crystallization of the mixer is increased. The generation of a large amount of crystallization will block the aftertreatment channel, causing the back pressure of the aftertreatment system to rise, the vehicle power to be insufficient, and there is a risk of exceeding the regulatory limits of emissions.

[0004] With the upgrading of diesel engine national seven regulations, urea double injection system is one of the important solutions. Compared with national six aftertreatment, urea injection needs to be added at the inlet of the aftertreatment, and the front mixer and SCR catalyst need to be added, which poses a great challenge to the boundary of the aftertreatment system. The common technical solution is to add a simple mixer in the front exhaust pipe, which has many shortcomings: the mixing effect is not ideal, the back pressure is high, and the urea crystallization is easy.
