Abstract: This study systematically investigated the effects of structural parameters in a two-stage selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst on ammonia storage, NO conversion efficiency, and ammonia slip using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The rank ordering of the correlations between structural parameters and performance metrics was determined by gray relational analysis (GRA). Both the catalyst diameter and the upstream catalyst porosity had correlations exceeding 0.9, making them key parameters affecting SCR performance. An extreme learning machine (ELM) prediction model was trained using data obtained from CFD simulations. The prediction performance of this ELM model was then evaluated using statistical metrics. Finally, the optimized Pareto frontier diagram was obtained through the multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) algorithm, and the optimal results were selected for further CFD modeling analysis. The results showed that the upstream NO conversion efficiency of the SCR system was improved by 7.7 %, the downstream NO conversion efficiency was improved by 18.67 %, the ammonia slip was reduced by 71.97 %, and the upstream ammonia storage capacity was improved by 6.83 % compared with the original model.
