Abstract: Conventionally, a coarse mesh having a same size in that a calculation cell was used regardless to whether the location is near or remote from radiation elements such as calculation cells and wall face elements. Therefore, it took very long calculation time to calculate an energy exchange between a remote location covered by a coarse mesh and a noted cell. Further, there were many non-influential cells for calculation in a location remote from a noted radiation element for radiation calculation, the calculation accuracy was low. The present invention is to propose a method of calculating radiation which is provided with a measure for completing the calculation rapidly while keeping calculation accuracy high. In that, near at a calculation cell from which radiation energy is emitted or at a calculation cell P into which radiation energy is absorbed, a small (level 0) cell is used and at a remote location from the calculation cell P, a large (level n) cell formed by combining plural small cells is used.

Abstract: A catalytic exhaust gas decomposition spirals an exhaust gas containing therein a substance to be decomposed and a reactant gas, rectifies the spiral flow, and lets the substance to be decomposed react with the reactant gas after the spiral flow has been rectified. For rectifying the spiral flow of the exhaust gas and the reactant gas, a plate-like baffle wall has therein a through hole at a portion near its center. The spiral flow is allowed to pass through the through hole so as to be centralized temporarily. The spiral flow then passes through an enlarged section of a flow path downstream of the through hole before being introduced into the catalyst bed. The method helps minimize variations in gas velocity of the exhaust gas flowing into the catalyst bed, thereby allowing a desired decomposition rate to be obtained substantially consistently.
