ABSTRACT:
A process is disclosed for determining a pressure loss of exhaust gas purification honeycomb structural bodies to be inspected, at a point of time when the honeycomb structural body is to be regenerated, said honeycomb structural body having a number of through holes alternatively sealed at opposite end faces, comprising the steps of: (1) flowing particles through each of exhaust gas purification honeycomb structural bodies of a given type in an axial direction of the through holes thereof, (2) determining a relationship between the pressure loss of the exhaust gas purification honeycomb structural body at a point of time when the honeycomb structural body catches a given amount of the particles and the pressure loss of the honeycomb structural body at a point of time when the honeycomb structural body catches the particles in such an amount suitable for the regeneration, (3) then measuring the pressure loss of a honeycomb structural body to be inspected, at a point of time when the honeycomb structural body to be inspected catches said given amount of the particles, and (4) based on the thus measured pressure loss, presuming the pressure loss at a point of time suitable for the regeneration thereof with reference to the relationship determined above. An apparatus is also disclosed to effect the above process.
