52  Methods for Monitoring and Diagnosing the Efficiency of Catalytic Converters




                Q, k2: constants dependent on probe arrangement and the catalytic converter volume
                &,,  : the volume of air measured at the intake of the engine.

                The actual storage capacity of the catalytic converter is then calculated from the formula:



                     r n,  I.%
                 AZ =  J k, . AA, (1)  Q,,,, (I) d/
                      TO


                where

                An,(/)= A,(/)-I

                and k3 gives the content of oxygen in the air.
