Incineration of diesel particulate matter for the regeneration of a mesh-type particulate-filter is achieved using induction heating technique. Heating of the diesel particulates deposited on the mesh-type particulate-filter at around 600°C is investigated. In the case of the particulate filter, stainless-steel mesh-type filters are considered and the influence on filtering efficiency, the engine performance due to back-pressure generation is studied. Theoretical estimation shows that induction heating approach for the regeneration via exhaust gas heating requires high power (>3kW). On the other hand, regeneration of mesh-type particulate-filter using induction heating technique requires a low input power of around 0.5kW in the off-line condition. The proposed mesh-type particulate-filter allowed a filtration efficiency of around 30–40% at lower engine speeds and part loads. Particulate combustion through induction heating at static condition is studied and power required for mesh-type filter and sintered metal filter regeneration during engine operation is estimated theoretically.
