| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for testing the catalytic efficiency of exhaust components, particularly exhaust components used in heavy-duty diesel engine exhaust systems. The exhaust component typically has a plurality of elongate channels through which exhaust gases flow, the channels extending between a first end face and a second end face of the exhaust component. The method comprises causing an exhaust gas to flow through the exhaust component, and making measurements of a property of the exhaust gas before and after it has flowed through the exhaust component, wherein the flow of the exhaust gas through the channels is restricted such that the volume of the exhaust component through which the exhaust gas flows is reduced. |
