What are 𝑁𝑂𝑥?
Nitrogen N2 and oxygen O2 molecules are
separated into individual atoms of nitrogen and
oxygen during the combustion process.
Formation of NO and NO2.
NO and NO2 collectively known as NOx .
NO is the predominant oxide of
nitrogen produced inside the engine
cylinder.
Diesel engines contain comparable amount of
nitrogen then petrol engines.

Mechanism of NO formation
NO forms in both flame front and post flame
gases.
NO formation in post flame gases
always dominates.
Thermal NO: oxidation of molecular nitrogen
in the post flame zone.
Prompt NO: formation of NO in the flame
zone (Fennimore mechanism).
Fuel NO: oxidation of nitrogen-
containing compounds in the fuel.
O+ N2=NO +N
N+O2=NO+O

Mechanism of 𝐍𝐎𝟐 formation
 NO formed in the flame zone rapidly converted to
NO2.
NO+ HO2=NO2 +OH
NO2+O=NO+O2
Highest NO2/NO ratio occur at light load in diesel
engine because of large cooler region.

Factor affecting NO emission
 Fuel to air equivalence ratio
 Spark timing
 Burned gas fraction
Residual gas fraction
Recycled exhaust gas
Change in time history of
temperature
Change in oxygen concentration

How can NOx be reduced?
 NOx formation is depends upon temperature
 When combustion flame front temperatures exceed
2500°F (1370°C), NOx formation increases
dramatically.
 The amounts of NOx formed at temperatures below
2500°F (1370°C) can be controlled in the exhaust by
a catalyst.
 To handle the amounts generated above 2500°F
(1370°C), the following are some methods that have
been used to lower NOx formation:
 Enrich the air–fuel mixture.
 Lower the compression ratio.

 Dilute the air–fuel mixture (EGR). 07/17/20

NO vs temperature and ф
High temperature and High oxygen
concentrations result in high NO formation rate.

Advantages of EGR
Reduced NOx
Improved engine life through reduced
cylinder temperatures (particularly exhaust
valve life)
The exhaust gas, added to the fuel, oxygen, and
combustion products, increases the specific heat
capacity of the cylinder contents, which lowers
the adiabatic flame temperature.
Reduced throttling losses in SI engine.
Reduced heat rejection.
Reduced chemical dissociation.

Disadvantages of EGR
 It reduces the available oxygen in the cylinder.
 Reduce the peak power available from the engine.
 The EGR valve can not respond instantly
to changes in demand.
Can not achieve perfect mixing in each
cylinder.
Combustion contamination.
Control system stability.
Materials and durability

EGR Feed back
The PCM needs to know when and how much
EGR flow is present when commanded and not
commanded. It have sensing systems called
Feedback, which is simply some sensor used to
determine presence of flow and amount.
Types:
PFE
DPFE
EVP
