TY - JOUR AU - Dang, Qi AB - To address the current issues with diesel vehicle exhaust after-treatment system particulate sensors—such as low accuracy and inability to perform continuous measurements of particulate mass concentration—a new sensor based on the light scattering method is proposed. During the research, it was found that the light scattering method can be affected by soot particles in the exhaust, which contaminate the optical components and reduces measurement accuracy. To solve this issue, a structure with alumina ceramic embedded lenses and optical fibers was designed, effectively improving the sensor’s resistance to contamination. The detection device is based on the principle of light scattering, and a particulate concentration measurement system with a 90° scattering angle was built. Calibration experiments were conducted using the dust particles generated by the device. The experimental results show that this sensor can measure particulate concentrations accurately, in real time, and with good stability, achieving a calibration error of less than ±5%.
