SAE Award for Excellence in Oral Presentation

Kyeong Lee of Argonne National Laboratory received the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Excellence in Oral Presentation Award for his presentation entitled, “Effects of Exhaust System Components on Diesel Particulate Morphology for a Light-Duty Diesel Engine.” The presentation, delivered at the 2005 SAE World Congress, addressed the detailed morphological properties of diesel particulate matter analyzed along the exhaust system at various engine operating conditions. Lee discussed his work using Argonne’s unique thermophoretic sampling system, which incorporates a high-resolution transmission electron microscope and customized image processing/data capability for collecting particulate matter, subsequent imaging of particle morphology, and detailed analysis of particle dimensions and fractal geometry, respectively. The supporting paper, co-authored with Jinyu Zhu, SAE document number 2005-01-0184.
