Abstract:Due to the large sizes, high bulk densities and high thermal expansion coefficients of diesel particulate filter (DPF) substrates, conventional mounting systems fail to provide sufficient mounting pressures. L-Seal mounting supports used in DPF applications not only provide these forces but also cushion the system, accommodating linear tolerance variations in the cone, shell and substrate. The mounting forces provided can be altered by changing various aspects of the seal itself including the material used, it… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
