Pollution Control: Mach 1+ Exhaust Gas Pollution Checking

In summary, Mach 1+ Exhaust Gas Pollution Checking is a method used to measure and reduce the harmful emissions produced by aircraft engines at supersonic speeds. It involves the use of specialized equipment and procedures to accurately measure and control the amount of pollutants released into the atmosphere, helping to mitigate the environmental impact of supersonic flight. This technology is crucial in ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and promoting sustainable practices in the aviation industry.

Is there any instrument for checking pollution rate of exhaust gas having mach number greater than one?

On economic and maintenance point of view, I won't be putting any device there. Why there? What's your point of putting it there?

Heey this is our final year project... "Reducing pollution of aircrafts by using catalitic converter" for that we have to check exhaust gas then only they will approve our project

If you have any ideas please share with me

There is no need to put the sensor in the exhaust stream, just shunt-off a bit of it through a small tube.

Anyway, have you Googled "combustion gas analyzer" and done any research on what the word "pollution" means and how the combustion chemistry works?

Yet...is it possible to collect exhaust gas having more than one mach no.

Certainly. Just use a sampling tube.

@majid hussain

The sampling of exhaust gas from jet engines is a long established practice . Really you only have to do an internet search using some very obvious keywords to get all the information needed .

Before you do much more on your project though have a look at a catalytic converter for a car and then using ball park calculations scale it up for a jet engine - how big and how heavy is it going to be ??

How can we shunt-off a gas having supersonic mach no. With a small tube

I like Nidum's advice: You need to start researching this yourself instead of asking us and having us research for you and give you the answers. I did an "obvious" google search and came up with some patents.

1. What is pollution control and why is it important?

Pollution control refers to the measures and methods used to reduce or eliminate pollution in the environment. It is important because pollution can have harmful effects on human health, wildlife, and the overall ecosystem.

2. What is Mach 1+ exhaust gas pollution checking?

Mach 1+ exhaust gas pollution checking is a method of testing and measuring the levels of pollutants emitted from vehicle exhaust systems. This is done to ensure that vehicles are meeting emissions standards and not contributing to air pollution.

3. How does Mach 1+ exhaust gas pollution checking work?

Mach 1+ exhaust gas pollution checking involves connecting a probe to a vehicle's exhaust pipe and measuring the levels of pollutants, such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides. These measurements are then compared to emissions standards to determine if the vehicle is in compliance.

4. Who is responsible for conducting Mach 1+ exhaust gas pollution checking?

Mach 1+ exhaust gas pollution checking is typically done by trained technicians at certified emissions testing facilities. These facilities are regulated by government agencies and are responsible for ensuring that vehicles meet emissions standards.

5. What are the benefits of Mach 1+ exhaust gas pollution checking?

Mach 1+ exhaust gas pollution checking helps to reduce air pollution and improve air quality. It also helps to identify vehicles that are not meeting emissions standards, allowing for repairs or adjustments to be made to reduce their impact on the environment.
