The present paper investigates the effects of ambient temperature on catalyst efficiency monitoring via temperature measurements. This approach utilizes the raw data obtained from outlet-inlet temperature sensors and after a statistical treatment yields the necessary information about the catalyst level of efficiency. An increase in ambient temperature is accompanied with an increase in catalyst average efficiency. This is reflected by the outlet-inlet temperature difference of the catalyst which also increases linearly. The improvement in catalyst efficiency as a result of the ambient temperature effect is stronger for a new catalyst than for an older one. The present paper also describes an algorithm that takes into account this phenomenon for the diagnostic monitoring of catalyst performance.
