Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a large amount of ammonia is adsorbed to the catalyst, then the exhaust gas purification rate is improved, but ammonia may desorb and be released into the atmosphere when exhaust gas temperature increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the adsorption amount of ammonia on the catalyst based on real-time exhaust gas temperature conditions. The control device modifies operational parameters to optimize ammonia adsorption when temperatures are favorable while preventing excessive adsorption that would lead to desorption at higher temperatures, thereby dynamically balancing purification efficiency with emission control.
Solution Approach 2:
The control device continuously monitors exhaust gas temperature and adjusts the amount of ammonia adsorbed on the catalyst accordingly. When temperature increases are detected, the system provides feedback to reduce ammonia adsorption to prevent desorption and atmospheric release, creating a closed-loop control system that resolves the contradiction between purification rate and ammonia release prevention.
2Productivity
If the adsorption amount of ammonia on the catalyst is increased, then the reaction with nitrogen oxides is facilitated, but the risk of ammonia desorption increases when temperature rises
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements dynamic control of ammonia adsorption levels based on real-time temperature monitoring. The control device adjusts operational parameters to maintain optimal ammonia adsorption amounts that facilitate rapid reaction with nitrogen oxides while adapting to temperature changes to prevent desorption, thereby dynamically balancing reaction efficiency with adsorption stability.
Solution Approach 2:
The control device changes operational parameters such as the amount of ammonia adsorbed on the catalyst based on exhaust gas temperature conditions. By adjusting these parameters dynamically, the system optimizes the reaction rate between ammonia and nitrogen oxides while maintaining stable adsorption conditions that prevent ammonia desorption and release.

AI summary
[Solution] A purification system includes an engine, a catalyst that causes adsorbed ammonia to react with nitrogen oxide contained in exhaust gas of the engine to purify the exhaust gas, a motor that is driven to compensate for the difference between a) an engine load of the engine and b) a driving load, when the driving load of a driven device driven by the engine changes, a battery that supplies electricity to the motor, and a setting part that sets a target value so that the target value of the adsorption amount of the catalyst increases as the remaining capacity of the battery increases.
