Abstract
Real driving emissions (RDE) tests were conducted on a China VI B compliant light-duty diesel vehicle in four cities with different altitudes. The emission factors of particle number (PN), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and carbon monoxide (CO) were calculated using the carbon dioxide (CO2) moving average window (MAW) method and compared across different altitudes and driving stages. The tests covered urban, rural, and motorway sections in these four cities. The results showed that NOX and CO emissions were highest in urban sections. The study also analyzed the impact of altitude, traffic conditions, and exhaust temperature on emission characteristics. The results indicated that CO and NOX emissions increased with altitude, while PN emissions showed different trends due to aftertreatment effects. In high-altitude areas, CO and PN emissions also increased with higher cylinder and exhaust temperatures. The emissions of all pollutants were significantly lower than the China VI b emission standards. We suggest further research to optimize aftertreatment systems to better control emissions and improve efficiency under varying altitudes and route conditions.
期刊介绍:
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering provides a forum for the rapid publication of short, structured Case Studies in Thermal Engineering and related Short Communications. It provides an essential compendium of case studies for researchers and practitioners in the field of thermal engineering and others who are interested in aspects of thermal engineering cases that could affect other engineering processes. The journal not only publishes new and novel case studies, but also provides a forum for the publication of high quality descriptions of classic thermal engineering problems. The scope of the journal includes case studies of thermal engineering problems in components, devices and systems using existing experimental and numerical techniques in the areas of mechanical, aerospace, chemical, medical, thermal management for electronics, heat exchangers, regeneration, solar thermal energy, thermal storage, building energy conservation, and power generation. Case studies of thermal problems in other areas will also be considered.
