The effective diffusion coefficient in the walls of an uncoated SiC particulate filter is determined as 2.8 × 10−6 m2/s at room temperature. Coating the filter with 30 or 65 g/L of wall-integrated washcoat leads to an insignificant increase in the diffusion coefficient, whereas coating the same filter with a high washcoat loading of 140 g/L leads to a decrease of the diffusion coefficient to 2.0 × 10−6 m2/s. All of the determined diffusion coefficients increase with temperature proportional to T1.5. This indicates that the diffusion in the wall is mainly molecular diffusion and that Knudsen diffusion plays a minor role. Fitting the parallel pore model to the experimental diffusion coefficient of the uncoated filter results in a tortuosity factor of 3.5. The random pore model overpredicts the effective diffusion coefficient by almost 50%. Neither of the two models reproduces the threshold-type dependency of the effective diffusion coefficient on washcoat loading. However, all experimental results are predicted by both pore models with an accuracy of better than 50%, so that an estimation of the effective diffusion coefficient might be a feasible solution for many practical simulation tasks.
