Abstract: A mixing chamber for mixing an additive in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a housing, a flow-guiding element and a downstream substrate. The flow-guiding element is arranged within the housing between an inlet opening and an outlet opening. The flow-guiding element is tubular and forms a channel including a channel wall, one inlet and one outlet, via which all of the exhaust gas is guided through the channel to the outlet.

Abstract: A mix box for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, the mix box being used to incorporate additives into an exhaust gas flow and including at least one inlet tube, at least one outlet tube and a housing for accommodating the inlet tube and the outlet tube, wherein: the housing delimits a volume of the mix box in relation to the surroundings; the inlet tube has an inflow section located inside the housing, which inflow section is provided with at least one inflow opening for introducing the exhaust gas into the housing; the outlet tube has a metering device designed as an injection nozzle at the end of the outlet tube and has an outflow section located inside the housing, which outflow section has a length (La) and is provided with at least one outflow opening for discharging the exhaust gas from the housing; a flow zone is provided between the inlet tube and the outlet tube and the flow zone, over at least 30% of its length (La), is free of flow guiding elements which deflect the flow in a circu

Abstract: A mixing chamber for mixing an additive in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, having a single-part or multi-part housing which has an entry opening for exhaust gas having a flow cross-section and having a central entry axis, and which has, arranged downstream of the entry opening, an exit opening for exhaust gas having a flow cross-section and having a central exit axis. A flow-guiding element is arranged within the housing between the two openings, wherein the flow-guiding element is tubular and forms at least one channel having a channel axis, said channel having an inlet and having an outlet, via which the entire exhaust gas stream is guided, in a flow direction parallel to the channel axis, to the outlet having an outlet cross-section, and the flow direction deviates relative to the central exit axis by an angle a of between 20° and 80°.

Abstract: A method for inserting a ceramic functional body in a tubular metal housing is disclosed. After the functional body is measured, it is wrapped with a support mat and slid into the housing. This is followed by a heating step of the entire housing. In this state, the housing is then reduced to a dimension that results from the current dimension of the ceramic functional body plus the desired gap dimension in the hot state. Upon cooling, the housing shrinks, and the functional body and the support mat sit correctly in the housing.
