BackgroundModern engines increasingly rely on the combination ofelectronic engine controls and exhaust aftertreatmentdevices to achieve low emissions.Various deviations from “ideal operation” typically resultin substantially higher emissions.Small number of vehicles and small portion of totaloperating time have a disproportionately highcontribution to the total emissions.

Example: On-road tests of CNG buses(Pittsburgh, USA, 1996-99)

Why on-road measurements?When evaluating benefits of a fleet-wide deployment ofa new technology, high emissions vehicles and highemissions episodes cannot be ignored as “outliers”, butmust be characterized and accounted for.On-road measurements using portable on-boardsystems allow for testing of a large set of vehiclesunder a wide range of operating conditions.Measurements can be done during normal everydayoperation of the tested equipment.

Evaluation of aftertreatment devicesUse one monitoring system. Run separate identical testswith and without aftertreatment, compare. Relatively easy test– Tests have to be repeatableReal-time or proportional sampling instrumentationUse two monitoring systems, one upstream, onedownstream of the aftertreatment Tests do not have to be repeatable– More difficult realization of the testInstrumentation has to measure in real-time (1 Hz)

Repeatability of on-road measurementsInstrumentation:- Five-gas (HC, CO, NO, CO2, O2) “garage” analyzer- Light scattering device for PM concentration measurements- Sampling: No dilution, no heating of the line- Exhaust flow: Computation based on engine rpm, intake airtemperature and pressure, engine parameters and exhaust composition- Second-by-second dataVehicle: 1999 International 24-passenger bus, DT-444-E 145 kW,7.3-liter V-8 electronically controlled direct-injection turbodiesel

Discussion – PM sampling,PM measurement using light scattering Dilution at the sampling port upstream of aftertreatment adds to thecomplexity of the system No dilution, no heating of the sampling system – secondary growth ofPM in the sampling system, plus condensation of water vapor contained inthe exhaust on particles Low concentration – counting of individual particles possible butgenerally not possible without dilution High concentration – “aggregate” number but some size information canbe obtained with very fast sampling Response d6Response d2Response d0For soot, massfor particles wavelength of lightfor particles wavelength of lightif particles grown to uniform size dfd, where fd fractal dimension of particles Complexity of issues requires careful use and thoughtful, applicationspecific calibration with other methods; still, results might not be accurate

Conclusions Aftertreatment device evaluation requires, after initialdevelopment but before mass deployment, testing of a large set ofvehicles under a variety of conditions; such testing can be done onthe road Studies done using a simple on-board system show thatrepeatable measurements can be obtained by replicatingdynamometer driving cycles on a closed road; tests can be thendone alternately with and without the aftertreatment device Ordinary operation (i.e., of a vehicle on the road) is generallypoorly repeatable; in this case, measurements can be done bysimultaneous sampling upstream and downstream of theaftertreatment device Studies done using a simple on-board system show that errorsdue to non-isokinetic sampling upstream of the device appear to berelatively small (compared to other sources of error) Simultaneous emissions measurements upstream anddownstream of an aftertreatment device appear to be afeasible way of evaluating its efficiency in real-worldoperation.
