Abstract Catalysed diesel particulate filters (DPF) have been described as multifunctional reactor systems. Integration of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) functionality in the DPF creates an SCR-in-DPF system that achieves nitrous oxides (NOx) treatment along with particulate matter (PM) collection. The physical and chemical aspects of the integrated SCR-filter complicate system modelling. The goal of this work is to develop low-complexity model of the SCR-filter system which retains high fidelity. A high-fidelity model of the SCR-coated filter has been developed and validated. The performance of the model was described in a previous paper. Model complexity reduction is attempted in this paper. The objective is to achieve simulation times that can support the deployment of the model for online system control in an engine control unit. Two approaches were taken for the SCR-coated filter model order reduction (MOR): a “grey-box” approach via proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and a “black box” approach via artificial neural network (ANN) function approximation. The POD method is shown to deliver a significant MOR while maintaining a high degree of fidelity but with less than 5% improvement in simulation time. The ANN method delivers a substantial MOR with reduction of three orders of magnitude in simulation time. The accuracy of the ANN model is satisfactory with good generalisation to new test data but noticeably inferior to the POD method. Keywords NH3 SCR-in-DPF . Reducedorder modelling .

1 Introduction Diesel engines offer superior performance in fuel economy compared with gasoline engines [1], but the simultaneous control of soot/particulates (PM) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) is challenging. Integration of the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst within a diesel particulate filter (DPF) monolith is an emerging technology for simultaneous control of soot and NOx emissions. Modelling of the integrated SCR-filter1 unit is complicated. The interaction of physical and chemical considerations 1

The application of the system model in real-time online model-based controls further motivates the need to develop simple but adequate representative models. A model of the SCR-filter system has been
