CATALYTIC CONVERTER APPARATUS
A catalytic converter apparatus (100,...,500) for use in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a housing (102,...,502) having a gas inlet (104,...,504) and a gas outlet (106,...,506), and at least one catalytic substrate element (108,...,508) disposed in the housing. The at least one substrate element is divided into a plurality of zones (108a-b, 208a-c, 308a-c, 408a-d, 508) or sections, the zones at least partially separated from one another to inhibit heat flow. The zones can be at least partially separated with walls (110a-d, 210a, 210b, 310a, 310b, 410a-d, 510). The walls can include insulating material for reducing the mobility of heat radially outwardly. Each of the zones defines a generally separate flow passage connecting the inlet and outlet in fluid communication. The apparatus can heat more rapidly from a cold start compared with conventional catalytic converters.
