Resumen: [EN] Control strategies such as variations in injection pressure and timing have been used by researchers to reduce in-cylinder exhaust emissions and meet legislation standards. Postinjection has been studied for several years and is now well known as an efficient strategy for reducing soot emission. Diesel gaseous and particle mass emissions have been progressively reduced over the last twenty years as a consequence of increasingly restrictive emission legislation and the application of aftertreatment devices. The main objective of this work is to better understand the effect of postinjection on particle size distribution in diesel exhaust. The approach uses a modern, well-instrumented research engine test cell equipped with a flexible high pressure fuel injection system. The results of this work provide guidelines for developing strategies to reduce particle size distribution in diesel engines. A major improvement in particle size distribution was found in the accumulation mode by using a close postinjection of a small quantity of fuel. For reduction in nucleation mode, a relationship was found with close postinjections of large quantities of fuel. Copyright © American Association for Aerosol Research.
