-
For engines intended for propulsion of railcars an NRSC shall be used for the measurement of gaseous and particulate pollutants for stage III A and for stage III B.
-
For engines intended for propulsion of locomotives an NRSC shall be used for the measurement of gaseous and particulate pollutants for stage III A and for stage III B.”
-
- (b)
The following section shall be added:
“1.3.
Measurement principle:
The engine exhaust emissions to be measured include the gaseous components (carbon monoxide, total hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen), and the particulates. Additionally, carbon dioxide is often used as a tracer gas for determining the dilution ratio of partial and full flow dilution systems. Good engineering practice recommends the general measurement of carbon dioxide as an excellent tool for the detection of measurement problems during the test run.
1.3.1.
NRSC Test:
During a prescribed sequence of operating conditions, with the engines warmed up, the amounts of the above exhaust emissions shall be examined continuously by taking a sample from the raw exhaust gas. The test cycle consists of a number of speed and torque (load) modes, which cover the typical operating range of diesel engines. During each mode, the concentration of each gaseous pollutant, exhaust flow and power output shall be determined, and the measured values weighted. The particulate sample shall be diluted with conditioned ambient air. One sample over the complete test procedure shall be taken and collected on suitable filters.
Alternatively, a sample shall be taken on separate filters, one for each mode, and cycle-weighted results computed.
The grams of each pollutant emitted per kilowatt -hour shall be calculated as described in Appendix 3 to this Annex.
1.3.2.
NRTC Test:
The prescribed transient test cycle, based closely on the operating conditions of diesel engines installed in non-road machinery, is run twice:
-
The first time (cold start) after the engine has soaked to room temperature and the engine coolant and oil temperatures, after treatment systems and all auxiliary engine control devices are stabilised between 20 and 30oC.
-
The second time (hot start) after a twenty-minute hot soak that commences immediately after the completion of the cold start cycle.
During this test sequence the above pollutants shall be examined. Using the engine torque and speed feedback signals of the engine dynamometer, the power shall be integrated with respect to the time of the cycle, resulting in the work produced by the engine over the cycle. The concentrations of the gaseous components shall be determined over the cycle, either in the raw exhaust gas by integration of the analyzer signal in accordance with Appendix 3 to this Annex, or in the diluted exhaust gas of a CVS full-flow dilution system by integration or by bag sampling in accordance with Appendix 3 to this Annex. For particulates, a proportional sample shall be collected from the diluted exhaust gas on a specified filter by either partial flow dilution or full-flow dilution. Depending on the method used, the diluted or undiluted exhaust gas flow rate shall be determined over the cycle to calculate the mass emission values of the pollutants. The mass emission values shall be related to the engine work to give the grams of each pollutant emitted per kilowatt-hour.
Emissions (g/kWh) shall be measured during both the cold and hot start cycles. Composite weighted emissions shall be computed by weighting the cold start results 10% and the hot start results 90%. Weighted composite results shall meet the standards.
Prior to the introduction of the cold/hot composite test sequence, the symbols (Annex I, section 2.18) the test sequence (Annex III) and calculation equations (Annex III, Appendix III) shall be modified in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 15.”

Adjustment of the dilution ratio
The particulate sampling system shall be started and running on bypass for the single filter method (optional for the multiple filter method).

The dilution air shall be set to obtain a filter face temperature between 315 K (42oC) and 325 K (52oC) at each mode. The total dilution ratio shall not be less than four.
NOTE: For steady-state procedure, the filter temperature may be kept at or below the maximum temperature of 325 K (52oC) instead of respecting the temperature range of 42oC - 52oC.
For the single and multiple filter methods, the sample mass flow rate through the filter shall be maintained at a constant proportion of the dilute exhaust mass flow rate for full flow systems for all modes. This mass ratio shall be within ± 5% with respect to the averaged value of the mode, except for the first 10 seconds of each mode for systems without bypass capability.

TEST RUN (NRTC TEST)
4.1.
Introduction
The non-road transient cycle (NRTC) is listed in Annex III, Appendix 4 as a second-by-second sequence of normalized speed and torque values applicable to all diesel engines covered by this Directive. In order to perform the test on an engine test cell, the normalised values shall be converted to the actual values for the individual engine under test, based on the engine mapping curve. This conversion is referred to as denormalisation, and the test cycle developed is referred to as the reference cycle of the engine to be tested. With these reference speed and torque values, the cycle shall be run on the test cell, and the feedback speed and torque values recorded. In order to validate the test run, a regression analysis between reference and feedback speed and torque values shall be conducted upon completion of the test.
4.1.1.
The use of defeat devices or irrational control or irrational emission control strategies shall be prohibited
4.2.
Engine mapping procedure
When generating the NRTC on the test cell, the engine shall be mapped before running the test cycle to determine the speed vs torque curve.
4.2.1.
Determination of the mapping speed range
The minimum and maximum mapping speeds are defined as follows:
Minimum mapping speed Maximum mapping speedidle speed
nhi x 1,02 or speed where full load torque drops off to zero, whichever is lower
(where nhi is the high speed, defined as the highest engine speed where 70% of the rated power is delivered).
4.2.2.
Engine mapping curve
The engine shall be warmed up at maximum power in order to stabilise the engine parameters according to the recommendation of the manufacturer and good engineering practice. When the engine is stabilised, the engine mapping shall be performed according to the following procedures.
4.2.2.1.
Transient map
- (a)
The engine shall be unloaded and operated at idle speed.
- (b)
The engine shall be operated at full load setting of the injection pump at minimum mapping speed.
- (c)
The engine speed shall be increased at an average rate of 8 ± 1 min-1 /s from minimum to maximum mapping speed. Engine speed and torque points shall be recorded at a sample rate of at least one point per second.
4.2.2.2.
Step map
- (a)
The engine shall be unloaded and operated at idle speed.
- (b)
The engine shall be operated at full load setting of the injection pump at minimum mapping speed.
- (c)
While maintaining full load, the minimum mapping speed shall be maintained for at least 15 s, and the average torque during the last 5 s shall be recorded. The maximum torque curve from minimum to maximum mapping speed shall be determined in no greater than 100 ± 20 /min speed increments. Each test point shall be held for at least 15 s, and the average torque during the last 5 s shall be recorded.
4.2.3.
Mapping curve generation
All data points recorded under section 4.2.2 shall be connected using linear interpolation between points. The resulting torque curve is the mapping curve and shall be used to convert the normalized torque values of the engine dynamometer schedule of Annex IV into actual torque values for the test cycle, as described in section 4.3.3.
4.2.4.
Alternate mapping
If a manufacturer believes that the above mapping techniques are unsafe or unrepresentative for any given engine, alternate mapping techniques may be used. These alternate techniques must satisfy the intent of the specified mapping procedures to determine the maximum available torque at all engine speeds achieved during the test cycles. Deviations from the mapping techniques specified in this section for reasons of safety or representativeness shall be approved by the parties involved along with the justification for their use. In no case, however, shall the torque curve be run by descending engine speeds for governed or turbocharged engines.
4.2.5.
Replicate tests
An engine need not be mapped before each and every test cycle. An engine must be remapped prior to a test cycle if:
-
an unreasonable amount of time has transpired since the last map, as determined by engineering judgement,
or,
-
physical changes or recalibrations have been made to the engine, which may potentially affect engine performance.
4.3.
Generation of the reference test cycle
4.3.1.
Reference speed
The reference speed (nref) corresponds to the 100% normalized speed values specified in the engine dynamometer schedule of Annex III, Appendix 4. It is obvious that the actual engine cycle resulting from denormalization to the reference speed largely depends on selection of the proper reference speed. The reference speed shall be determined by the following definition:
nref = low speed + 0,95 x (high speed - low speed)
(the high speed is the highest engine speed where 70% of the rated power is delivered, while the low speed is the lowest engine speed where 50% of the rated power is delivered).
4.3.2.
Denormalization of engine speed
The speed shall be denormalized using the following equation:
4.3.3.
Denormalization of engine torque
The torque values in the engine dynamometer schedule of Annex III, Appendix 4 are normalized to the maximum torque at the respective speed. The torque values of the reference cycle shall be denormalized, using the mapping curve determined according to Section 4.2.2, as follows:
for the respective actual speed as determined in Section 4.3.2.
4.3.4.
Example of denormalization procedure
As an example, the following test point shall be denormalized:
% speed = 43%
% torque = 82%
Given the following values:
reference speed = 2200 /min
idle speed = 600 /min
results in
With the maximum torque of 700 Nm observed from the mapping curve at 1288 /min
4.4.
Dynamometer
4.4.1.
When using a load cell, the torque signal shall be transferred to the engine axis and the inertia of the dyno shall be considered. The actual engine torque is the torque read on the load cell plus the moment of inertia of the brake multiplied by the angular acceleration. The control system has to perform this calculation in real time.
4.4.2.
If the engine is tested with an eddy-current dynamometer, it is recommended that the number of points, where the difference is smaller than - 5% of the peak torque, does not exceed 30 (where Tsp is the demanded torque, is the derivative of the engine speed and· ΘD is the rotational inertia of the eddy-current dynamometer).
4.5.
Emissions test run
The following flow chart outlines the test sequence.
One or more Practice Cycles may be run as necessary to check engine, test cell and emissions systems before the measurement cycle.
4.5.1.
Preparation of the sampling filters
At least one hour before the test, each filter shall be placed in a petri dish, which is protected against dust contamination and allows air exchange, and placed in a weighing chamber for stabilization. At the end of the stabilization period, each filter shall be weighed and the weight shall be recorded. The filter shall then be stored in a closed petri dish or sealed filter holder until needed for testing. The filter shall be used within eight hours of its removal from the weighing chamber. The tare weight shall be recorded.
4.5.2.
Installation of the measuring equipment
The instrumentation and sample probes shall be installed as required. The tailpipe shall be connected to the full flow dilution system, if used.
4.5.3.
Starting and preconditioning the dilution system and the engine
The dilution system and the engine shall be started and warmed up. The sampling system preconditioning shall be conducted by operating the engine at a condition of rated-speed, 100 percent torque for a minimum of 20 minutes while simultaneously operating either the Partial flow Sampling System or the Full flow CVS with secondary dilution system. Dummy particulate matter emissions samples are then collected. Particulate sample filters need not be stabilized or weighed, and may be discarded. Filter media may be changed during conditioning as long as the total sampled time through the filters and sampling system exceeds 20 minutes. Flow rates shall be set at the approximate flow rates selected for transient testing. Torque shall be reduced from 100 percent torque while maintaining the rated speed condition as necessary so as not to exceed the 191 o C maximum sample zone temperature specifications.
4.5.4.
Starting the particulate sampling system
The particulate sampling system shall be started and run on by-pass. The particulate background level of the dilution air may be determined by sampling the dilution air prior to entrance of the exhaust into the dilution tunnel. It is preferred that background particulate sample be collected during the transient cycle if another PM sampling system is available. Otherwise, the PM sampling system used to collect transient cycle PM can be used. If filtered dilution air is used, one measurement may be done prior to or after the test. If the dilution air is not filtered, measurements should be carried out prior to the beginning and after the end of the cycle and the values averaged.
4.5.5.
Adjustment of the dilution system
The total diluted exhaust gas flow of a full flow dilution system or the diluted exhaust gas flow through a partial flow dilution system shall be set to eliminate water condensation in the system, and to obtain a filter face temperature between 315 K (42oC) and 325 K (52oC).
4.5.6.
Checking the analyzers
The emission analyzers shall be set at zero and spanned. If sample bags are used, they shall be evacuated.
4.5.7.
Engine starting procedure
The stabilized engine shall be started within 5 min after completion of warm-up according to the starting procedure recommended by the manufacturer in the owner's manual, using either a production starter motor or the dynamometer. Optionally, the test may start within 5 min of the engine preconditioning phase without shutting the engine off, when the engine has been brought to an idle condition.
4.5.8.
Cycle run
4.5.8.1.
Test sequence
The test sequence shall commence when the engine is started from shut down after the preconditioning phase or from idle conditions when starting directly from the preconditioning phase with the engine running. The test shall be performed according to the reference cycle as set out in Annex III, Appendix 4. Engine speed and torque command set points shall be issued at 5 Hz (10 Hz recommended) or greater. The set points shall be calculated by linear interpolation between the 1 Hz set points of the reference cycle. Feedback engine speed and torque shall be recorded at least once every second during the test cycle, and the signals may be electronically filtered.
4.5.8.2.
Analyzer response
At the start of the engine or test sequence, if the cycle is started directly from preconditioning, the measuring equipment shall be started, simultaneously:
-
start collecting or analyzing dilution air, if a full flow dilution system is used;
-
start collecting or analyzing raw or diluted exhaust gas, depending on the method used;
-
start measuring the amount of diluted exhaust gas and the required temperatures and pressures;
-
start recording the exhaust gas mass flow rate, if raw exhaust gas analysis is used;
-
recording the feedback data of speed and torque of the dynamometer.
If raw exhaust measurement is used, the emission concentrations (HC, CO and NOx) and the exhaust gas mass flow rate shall be measured continuously and stored with at least 2 Hz on a computer system. All other data may be recorded with a sample rate of at least 1 Hz. For analogue analyzers the response shall be recorded, and the calibration data may be applied online or offline during the data evaluation.
If a full flow dilution system is used, HC and NOx shall be measured continuously in the dilution tunnel with a frequency of at least 2 Hz. The average concentrations shall be determined by integrating the analyzer signals over the test cycle. The system response time shall be no greater than 20 s, and shall be coordinated with CVS flow fluctuations and sampling time/test cycle offsets, if necessary. CO and CO2 shall be determined by integration or by analyzing the concentrations in the sample bag collected over the cycle. The concentrations of the gaseous pollutants in the dilution air shall be determined by integration or by collection in the background bag. All other parameters that need to be measured shall be recorded with a minimum of one measurement per second (1 Hz).
4.5.8.3.
Particulate sampling
At the start of the engine or test sequence, if the cycle is started directly from preconditioning, the particulate sampling system shall be switched from by-pass to collecting particulates.
If a partial flow dilution system is used, the sample pump(s) shall be adjusted so that the flow rate through the particulate sample probe or transfer tube is maintained proportional to the exhaust mass flow rate.
If a full flow dilution system is used, the sample pump(s) shall be adjusted so that the flow rate through the particulate sample probe or transfer tube is maintained at a value within ± 5% of the set flow rate. If flow compensation (i.e., proportional control of sample flow) is used, it must be demonstrated that the ratio of main tunnel flow to particulate sample flow does not change by more than ± 5% of its set value (except for the first 10 seconds of sampling).
NOTE: For double dilution operation, sample flow is the net difference between the flow rate through the sample filters and the secondary dilution airflow rate.
The average temperature and pressure at the gas meter(s) or flow instrumentation inlet shall be recorded. If the set flow rate cannot be maintained over the complete cycle (within ± 5%) because of high particulate loading on the filter, the test shall be voided. The test shall be rerun using a lower flow rate and/or a larger diameter filter.
4.5.8.4.
Engine stalling
If the engine stalls anywhere during the test cycle, the engine shall be preconditioned and restarted, and the test repeated. If a malfunction occurs in any of the required test equipment during the test cycle, the test shall be voided.
4.5.8.5.
Operations after test
At the completion of the test, the measurement of the exhaust gas mass flow rate, the diluted exhaust gas volume, the gas flow into the collecting bags and the particulate sample pump shall be stopped. For an integrating analyzer system, sampling shall continue until system response times have elapsed.
The concentrations of the collecting bags, if used, shall be analyzed as soon as possible and in any case not later than 20 minutes after the end of the test cycle.
After the emission test, a zero gas and the same span gas shall be used for re-checking the analyzers. The test will be considered acceptable if the difference between the pre-test and post-test results is less than 2% of the span gas value.
The particulate filters shall be returned to the weighing chamber no later than one hour after completion of the test. They shall be conditioned in a petri dish, which is protected against dust contamination and allows air exchange, for at least one hour, and then weighed. The gross weight of the filters shall be recorded.
4.6.
Verification of the test run
4.6.1.
Data Shift
To minimise the biasing effect of the time lag between the feedback and reference cycle values, the entire engine speed and torque feedback signal sequence may be advanced or delayed in time with respect to the reference speed and torque sequence. If the feedback signals are shifted, both speed and torque must be shifted by the same amount in the same direction.
4.6.2.
Calculation of the Cycle Work
The actual cycle work Wact (kWh) shall be calculated using each pair of engine feedback speed and torque values recorded. The actual cycle work Wact is used for comparison to the reference cycle work Wref and for calculating the brake specific emissions. The same methodology shall be used for integrating both reference and actual engine power. If values are to be determined between adjacent reference or adjacent measured values, linear interpolation shall be used.
In integrating the reference and actual cycle work, all negative torque values shall be set equal to zero and included. If integration is performed at a frequency of less than 5 Hertz, and if, during a given time segment, the torque value changes from positive to negative or negative to positive, the negative portion shall be computed and set equal to zero. The positive portion shall be included in the integrated value.
Wact shall be between -15% and + 5% of Wref.
4.6.3.
Validation Statistics of the Test Cycle
Linear regressions of the feedback values on the reference values shall be performed for speed, torque and power. This shall be done after any feedback data shift has occurred, if this option is selected. The method of least squares shall be used, with the best fit equation having the form:
y = mx + b
where:
y mfeedback (actual) value of speed (min-1), torque (N·m), or
power (kW)
xslope of the regression line
breference value of speed (min-1), torque (N·m), or power (kW)
y intercept of the regression line
The standard error of estimate (SE) of y on x and the coefficient of determination (r2) shall be calculated for each regression line.
It is recommended that this analysis be performed at 1 Hertz. For a test to be considered valid, the criteria of Table 1 must be met.

However, those points must not be deleted for the calculation of cycle work and emissions.

MEASUREMENT AND SAMPLING PROCEDURES
1.
MEASUREMENT AND SAMPLING PROCEDURES (NRSC TEST)
Gaseous and particulate components emitted by the engine submitted for testing shall be measured by the methods described in Annex VI. The methods of Annex VI describe the recommended analytical systems for the gaseous emissions (Section 1.1) and the recommended particulate dilution and sampling systems (Section 1.2).
1.1.
Dynamometer specification
An engine dynamometer with adequate characteristics to perform the test cycle described in Annex III, Section 3.7.1 shall be used. The instrumentation for torque and speed measurement shall allow the measurement of the power within the given limits. Additional calculations may be necessary. The accuracy of the measuring equipment must be such that the maximum tolerances of the figures given in point 1.3 are not exceeded.
1.2.
Exhaust gas flow
The exhaust gas flow shall be determined by one of the methods mentioned in sections 1.2.1 to 1.2.4.
1.2.1.
Direct measurement method
Direct measurement of the exhaust flow by flow nozzle or equivalent metering system (for detail see ISO 5167:2000).
NOTE: Direct gaseous flow measurement is a difficult task. Precautions must be taken to avoid measurement errors that will impact emission value errors.
1.2.2.
Air and fuel measurement method
Measurement of the airflow and the fuel flow.
Air flow-meters and fuel flow-meters with the accuracy defined in Section 1.3 shall be used.
The calculation of the exhaust gas flow is as follows:
GEXHW = GAIRW + GFUEL (for wet exhaust mass)
1.2.3.
Carbon balance method
Exhaust mass calculation from fuel consumption and exhaust gas concentrations using the carbon balance method (Annex III, Appendix 3).
1.2.4.
Tracer measurement method
This method involves measurement of the concentration of a tracer gas in the exhaust.
A known amount of an inert gas (e.g. pure helium) shall be injected into the exhaust gas flow as a tracer. The gas is mixed and diluted by the exhaust gas, but must not react in the exhaust pipe. The concentration of the gas shall then be measured in the exhaust gas sample.
In order to ensure complete mixing of the tracer gas, the exhaust gas sampling probe shall be located at least 1 m or 30 times the diameter of the exhaust pipe, whichever is larger, downstream of the tracer gas injection point. The sampling probe may be located closer to the injection point if complete mixing is verified by comparing the tracer gas concentration with the reference concentration when the tracer gas is injected upstream of the engine.
The tracer gas flow rate shall be set so that the tracer gas concentration at engine idle speed after mixing becomes lower than the full scale of the trace gas analyzer.
The calculation of the exhaust gas flow is as follows:
where
GEXHW GTinstantaneous exhaust mass flow (kg/s)
concmixtracer gas flow (cm3/min)
ρEXHinstantaneous concentration of the tracer gas after mixing, (ppm)
concadensity of the exhaust gas (kg/m3)
background concentration of the tracer gas in the intake air (ppm)
The background concentration of the tracer gas (conc a) may be determined by averaging the background concentration measured immediately before and after the test run.
When the background concentration is less than 1% of the concentration of the tracer gas after mixing (conc mix.) at maximum exhaust flow, the background concentration may be neglected.
The total system shall meet the accuracy specifications for the exhaust gas flow and shall be calibrated according to Appendix 2, Section 1.11.2
1.2.5.
Air flow and air to fuel ratio measurement method
This method involves exhaust mass calculation from the air flow and the air to fuel ratio. The calculation of the instantaneous exhaust gas mass flow is as follows:
with A / F st = 14,5
where
A/Fst λstoichiometric air/fuel ratio (kg/kg)
concCO2relative air /fuel ratio
concCOdry CO2 concentration (%)
concHCdry CO concentration (ppm)
HC concentration (ppm)
NOTE: The calculation refers to a diesel fuel with a H/C ratio equal to 1.8.
The air flowmeter shall meet the accuracy specifications in Table 3, the CO2 analyzer used shall meet the specifications of clause 1.4.1, and the total system shall meet the accuracy specifications for the exhaust gas flow.

Determination of the gaseous components
1.4.1.
General analyser specifications
The analysers shall have a measuring range appropriate for the accuracy required to measure the concentrations of the exhaust gas components (section 1.4.1.1). It is recommended that the analysers be operated in such a way that the measured concentration falls between 15% and 100% of full scale.
If the full scale value is 155 ppm (or ppm C) or less or if read-out systems (computers, data loggers) that provide sufficient accuracy and resolution below 15% of full scale are used, concentrations below 15% of full scale are also acceptable. In this case, additional calibrations are to be made to ensure the accuracy of the calibration curves - Annex III, Appendix 2, section 1.5.5.2.
The electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of the equipment shall be on a level as to minimize additional errors.
1.4.1.1.
Measurement error
The analyzer shall not deviate from the nominal calibration point by more than ± 2% of the reading or ± 0.3% of full scale, whichever is larger.
NOTE: For the purpose of this standard, accuracy is defined as the deviation of the analyzer reading from the nominal calibration values using a calibration gas (≡ true value)
1.4.1.2.
Repeatability
The repeatability, defined as 2,5 times the standard deviation of 10 repetitive responses to a given calibration or span gas, must be no greater than ± 1% of full scale concentration for each range used above 155 ppm (or ppm C) or ± 2% of each range used below 155 ppm (or ppm C).

1.4.1.4.
Zero drift
The zero drift during a one-hour period shall be less than 2% of full scale on the lowest range used. The zero response is defined as the mean response, including noise, to a zero gas during a 30-second time interval.
1.4.1.5.
Span drift
The span drift during a one-hour period shall be less than 2% of full scale on the lowest range used. Span is defined as the difference between the span response and the zero response. The span response is defined as the mean response, including noise, to a span gas during a 30-second time interval.
1.4.2.
Gas drying
The optional gas drying device must have a minimal effect on the concentration of the measured gases. Chemical dryers are not an acceptable method of removing water from the sample.
1.4.3.
Analysers
Sections 1.4.3.1 to 1.4.3.5 of this Appendix describe the measurement principles to be used. A detailed description of the measurement systems is given in Annex VI.
The gases to be measured shall be analysed with the following instruments. For non-linear analysers, the use of linearizing circuits is permitted.
1.4.3.1.
Carbon monoxide (CO) analysis
The carbon monoxide analyser shall be of the non-dispersive infra-red (NDIR) absorption type.
1.4.3.2.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) analysis
The carbon dioxide analyser shall be of the non-dispersive infra-red (NDIR) absorption type.
1.4.3.3.
Hydrocarbon (HC) analysis
The hydrocarbon analyser shall be of the heated flame ionization detector (HFID) type with detector, valves, pipework, etc, heated so as to maintain a gas temperature of 463 K (190oC) ± 10 K.
1.4.3.4.
Oxides of nitrogen (NOx) analysis
The oxides of nitrogen analyser shall be of the chemiluminescent detector (CLD) or heated chemiluminescent detector (HCLD) type with a NO2/NO converter, if measured on a dry basis. If measured on a wet basis, a HCLD with converter maintained above 328 K (55oC) shall be used, provided the water quench check (Annex III, Appendix 2, section 1.9.2.2) is satisfied.
For both CLD and HCLD, the sampling path shall be maintained at a wall temperature of 328 K to 473 K ( 55oC to 200oC) up to the converter for dry measurement, and up to the analyzer for wet measurement.
1.4.4.
Air to fuel measurement
The air to fuel measurement equipment used to determine the exhaust gas flow as specified in section 1.2.5 shall be a wide range air to fuel ratio sensor or lambda sensor of Zirconia type.
The sensor shall be mounted directly on the exhaust pipe where the exhaust gas temperature is high enough to eliminate water condensation.
The accuracy of the sensor with incorporated electronics shall be within:
± 3% of reading λ < 2 ± 5% of reading 2 ≤ λ < 5 ± 10% of reading 5 ≤ λ To fulfil the accuracy specified above, the sensor shall be calibrated as specified by the instrument manufacturer.
1.4.5.
Sampling for gaseous emissions
The gaseous emissions sampling probes must be fitted at least 0,5 m or three times the diameter of the exhaust pipe - whichever is the larger - upstream of the exit of the exhaust gas system as far as applicable and sufficiently close to the engine as to ensure an exhaust gas temperature of at least 343 K (70oC) at the probe.
In the case of a multi-cylinder engine with a branched exhaust manifold, the inlet of the probe shall be located sufficiently far downstream so as to ensure that the sample is representative of the average exhaust emissions from all cylinders. In multi-cylinder engines having distinct groups of manifolds, such as in a 'V'-engine configuration, it is permissible to acquire a sample from each group individually and calculate an average exhaust emission. Other methods which have been shown to correlate with the above methods may be used. For exhaust emissions calculation the total exhaust mass flow of the engine must be used.
If the composition of the exhaust gas is influenced by any exhaust after-treatment system, the exhaust sample must be taken upstream of this device in the tests of stage I and downstream of this device in the tests of stage II. When a full flow dilution system is used for the determination of the particulates, the gaseous emissions may also be determined in the diluted exhaust gas. The sampling probes shall be close to the particulate sampling probe in the dilution tunnel (Annex VI, section 1.2.1.2, DT and Section 1.2.2, PSP). CO and CO2 may optionally be determined by sampling into a bag and subsequent measurement of the concentration in the sampling bag.
1.5.
Determination of the particulates
The determination of the particulates requires a dilution system. Dilution may be accomplished by a partial flow dilution system or a full flow dilution system. The flow capacity of the dilution system shall be large enough to completely eliminate water condensation in the dilution and sampling systems, and maintain the temperature of the diluted exhaust gas between 315 K (42oC) and 325 K (52oC) immediately upstream of the filter holders. De-humidifying the dilution air before entering the dilution system is permitted, if the air humidity is high. Dilution air pre-heating above the temperature limit of 303 K (30 oC) is recommended, if the ambient temperature is below 293 K (20oC). However, the diluted air temperature must not exceed 325 K (52oC) prior to the introduction of the exhaust in the dilution tunnel.
NOTE: For steady-state procedure, the filter temperature may be kept at or below the maximum temperature of 325 K (52oC) instead of respecting the temperature range of 42oC - 52oC.
For a partial flow dilution system, the particulate sampling probe must be fitted close to and upstream of the gaseous probe as defined in Section 4.4 and in accordance with Annex VI, section 1.2.1.1, figure 4-12 EP and SP.
The partial flow dilution system has to be designed to split the exhaust stream into two fractions, the smaller one being diluted with air and subsequently used for particulate measurement. From that it is essential that the dilution ratio be determined very accurately. Different splitting methods can be applied, whereby the type of splitting used dictates to a significant degree the sampling hardware and procedures to be used (Annex VI, section 1.2.1.1).
To determine the mass of the particulates, a particulate sampling system, particulate sampling filters, a microgram balance and a temperature and humidity controlled weighing chamber are required.
For particulate sampling, two methods may be applied:
-
the single filter method uses one pair of filters (1.5.1.3. of this Appendix) for all modes of the test cycle. Considerable attention must be paid to sampling times and flows during the sampling phase of the test. However, only one pair of filters will be required for the test cycle,
-
the multiple filter method dictates that one pair of filters (section 1.5.1.3. of this Appendix) is used for each of the individual modes of the test cycle. This method allows more lenient sample procedures but uses more filters.
1.5.1.
Particulate sampling filters
1.5.1.1.
Filter specification
Fluorocarbon coated glass fibre filters or fluorocarbon based membrane filters are required for certification tests. For special applications different filter materials may be used. All filter types shall have a 0,3 µm DOP (di-octylphthalate) collection efficiency of at least 99% at a gas face velocity between 35 and 100 cm/s. When performing correlation tests between laboratories or between a manufacturer and an approval authority, filters of identical quality must be used.
1.5.1.2.
Filter size
Particulate filters must have a minimum diameter of 47 mm (37 mm stain diameter). Larger diameter filters are acceptable (section 1.5.1.5.).
1.5.1.3.

The back-up filter shall be located no more than 100 mm downstream of, and shall not be in contact with, the primary filter. The filters may be weighed separately or as a pair with the filters placed stain side to stain side.
1.5.1.4.
Filter face velocity
A gas face velocity through the filter of 35 to 100 cm/s shall be achieved. The pressure drop increase between the beginning and the end of the test shall be no more than 25 kPa.
1.5.1.5.
Filter loading
The recommended minimum filter loadings for the most common filter sizes are shown in the following table. For larger filter sizes, the minimum filter loading shall be 0,065 mg/1000 mm2 filter area.
Filter Diameter (mm) Recommended stain diameter (mm) Recommended minimum loading (mg) 47 37 0,11 70 60 0,25 90 80 0,41 110 100 0,62 For the multiple filter method, the recommended minimum filter loading for the sum of all filters shall be the product of the appropriate value above and the square root of the total number of modes.
1.5.2.
Weighing chamber and analytical balance specifications
1.5.2.1.
Weighing chamber conditions
The temperature of the chamber (or room) in which the particulate filters are conditioned and weighed shall be maintained to within 295 K (22oC) ± 3K during all filter conditioning and weighing. The humidity shall be maintained to a dew point of 282,5 (9,5oC) ± 3K and a relative humidity of 45 ± 8%.
1.5.2.2.
Reference filter weighing
The chamber (or room) environment shall be free of any ambient contaminants (such as dust) that would settle on the particulate filters during their stabilisation. Disturbances to weighing room specifications as outlined in section 1.5.2.1 will be allowed if the duration of the disturbances does not exceed 30 minutes. The weighing room should meet the required specifications prior to personnel entrance into the weighing room. At least two unused reference filters or reference filter pairs shall be weighed within four hours of, but preferably at the same time as the sample filter (pair) weighing. They shall be the same size and material as the sample filters.
If the average weight of the reference filters (reference filter pairs) changes between sample filter weighing by more than 10 μg, then all sample filters shall be discarded and the emissions test repeated.
If the weighing room stability criteria outlined in section 1.5.2.1 is not met, but the reference filter (pair) weighing meet the above criteria, the engine manufacturer has the option of accepting the sample filter weights or voiding the tests, fixing the weighing room control system and re-running the test.
1.5.2.3.
Analytical balance
The analytical balance used to determine the weights of all filters shall have a precision (standard deviation) of 2 (μg and a resolution of 1 μg (1 digit = 1 μg) specified by the balance manufacturer.
1.5.2.4.
Elimination of static electricity effects
To eliminate the effects of static electricity, the filters shall be neutralized prior to weighing, for example, by a Polonium neutralizer or a device of similar effect.
1.5.3.
Additional specifications for particulate measurement
All parts of the dilution system and the sampling system from the exhaust pipe up to the filter holder, which are in contact with raw and diluted exhaust gas, must be designed to minimize deposition or alteration of the particulates. All parts must be made of electrically conductive materials that do not react with exhaust gas components, and must be electrically grounded to prevent electrostatic effects.

MEASUREMENT AND SAMPLING PROCEDURES (NRTC TEST)
2.1.
Introduction
Gaseous and particulate components emitted by the engine submitted for testing shall be measured by the methods of Annex VI.

The instrumentation for torque and speed measurement shall allow the measurement of the power within the given limits. Additional calculations may be necessary. The accuracy of the measuring equipment must be such that the maximum tolerances of the figures given in Table 3 are not exceeded.
2.2.2.
Other Instruments
Measuring instruments for fuel consumption, air consumption, temperature of coolant and lubricant, exhaust gas pressure and intake manifold depression, exhaust gas temperature, air intake temperature, atmospheric pressure, humidity and fuel temperature shall be used, as required. These instruments shall satisfy the requirements given in Table 3:
Table 3. Accuracy of Measuring Instruments
No. Measuring Instrument Accuracy 1 Engine speed ± 2% of reading or ± 1% of engine's max. value, whichever is larger 2 Torque ± 2% of reading or ± 1% of engine's max. value, whichever is larger 3 Fuel consumption ± 2% of engine's max. value 4 Air consumption ± 2% of reading or ± 1% of engine's max. value, whichever is larger 5 Exhaust gas flow ± 2,5% of reading or ± 1,5% of engine's max. value, whichever is larger 6 Temperatures ≤ 600 K + 2K absolute 7 Temperatures > 600 K ± 1% of reading 8 Exhaust gas pressure ± 0,2 kPa absolute 9 Intake air depression ± 0,05 kPa absolute 10 Atmospheric pressure ± 0,1 kPa absolute 11 Other pressures ± 0,1 kPa absolute 12 Absolute humidity ± 5% of reading 13 Dilution air flow ± 2% of reading 14 Diluted exhaust gas flow ± 2% of reading 2.2.3.
Raw Exhaust Gas Flow
For calculating the emissions in the raw exhaust gas and for controlling a partial flow dilution system, it is necessary to know the exhaust gas mass flow rate. For determinating the exhaust mass flow rate, either of the methods described below may be used.
For the purpose of emissions calculation, the response time of either method described below shall be equal to or less than the requirement for the analyzer response time, as defined in Appendix 2, Section 1.11.1.
For the purpose of controlling a partial flow dilution system, a faster response is required. For partial flow dilution systems with online control, a response time of ≤ 0,3 s is required. For partial flow dilution systems with look ahead control based on a pre-recorded test run, a response time of the exhaust flow measurement system of ≤ 5 s with a rise time of ≤ 1 s is required. The system response time shall be specified by the instrument manufacturer. The combined response time requirements for exhaust gas flow and partial flow dilution system are indicated in Section 2.4.
Direct measurement method
Direct measurement of the instantaneous exhaust flow may be done by systems, such as:
-
pressure differential devices, like flow nozzle, (for details see ISO 5167: 2000)
-
ultrasonic flowmeter
-
vortex flowmeter.
Precautions shall be taken to avoid measurement errors, which will impact emission value errors. Such precautions include the careful installation of the device in the engine exhaust system according to the instrument manufacturers' recommendations and to good engineering practice. Especially, engine performance and emissions must not be affected by the installation of the device.
The flowmeters shall meet the accuracy specifications of Table 3.
Air and fuel measurement method
This involves measurement of the airflow and the fuel flow with suitable flowmeters. The calculation of the instantaneous exhaust gas flow is as follows:
G EXHW = G AIRW + G FUEL (for wet exhaust mass)
The flowmeters shall meet the accuracy specifications of Table 3, but shall also be accurate enough to also meet the accuracy specifications for the exhaust gas flow.
Tracer measurement method
This involves measurement of the concentration of a tracer gas in the exhaust.
A known amount of an inert gas (e.g. pure helium) shall be injected into the exhaust gas flow as a tracer. The gas is mixed and diluted by the exhaust gas, but must not react in the exhaust pipe. The concentration of the gas shall then be measured in the exhaust gas sample.
In order to ensure complete mixing of the tracer gas, the exhaust gas sampling probe shall be located at least 1 m or 30 times the diameter of the exhaust pipe, whichever is larger, downstream of the tracer gas injection point. The sampling probe may be located closer to the injection point if complete mixing is verified by comparing the tracer gas concentration with the reference concentration when the tracer gas is injected upstream of the engine.
The tracer gas flow rate shall be set so that the tracer gas concentration at engine idle speed after mixing becomes lower than the full scale of the trace gas analyzer.
The calculation of the exhaust gas flow is as follows:
where
G EXHW G Tinstantaneous exhaust mass flow (kg/s)
conc mixtracer gas flow (cm3/min)
ρ EXHinstantaneous concentration of the tracer gas after mixing (ppm)
conc adensity of the exhaust gas (kg/m3)
background concentration of the tracer gas in the intake air (ppm)
The background concentration of the tracer gas (conc a) may be determined by averaging the background concentration measured immediately before the test run and after the test run.
When the background concentration is less than 1% of the concentration of the tracer gas after mixing (conc mix.) at maximum exhaust flow, the background concentration may be neglected.
The total system shall meet the accuracy specifications for the exhaust gas flow, and shall be calibrated according to Appendix 2, paragraph 1.11.2
Air flow and air to fuel ratio measurement method
This involves exhaust mass calculation from the airflow and the air to fuel ratio. The calculation of the instantaneous exhaust gas mass flow is as follows:
with A / F st = 14,5
where
A/Fst λstoichiometric air/fuel ratio (kg/kg)
concCO2relative air /fuel ratio
concCOdry CO2 concentration (%)
concHCdry CO concentration (ppm)
HC concentration (ppm)
NOTE: The calculation refers to a diesel fuel with a H/C ratio equal to 1.8.
The air flowmeter shall meet the accuracy specifications in Table 3, the CO2 analyzer used shall meet the specifications of section 2.3.1, and the total system shall meet the accuracy specifications for the exhaust gas flow.
Optionally, air to fuel ratio measurement equipment, such as a zirconia type sensor, may be used for the measurement of the excess air ratio in accordance with the specifications of section 2.3.4.
2.2.4.
Diluted Exhaust Gas Flow
For calculation of the emissions in the diluted exhaust gas, it is necessary to know the diluted exhaust gas mass flow rate. The total diluted exhaust gas flow over the cycle (kg/test) shall be calculated from the measurement values over the cycle and the corresponding calibration data of the flow measurement device (V 0 for PDP, K V for CFV, C d for SSV): the corresponding methods described in Appendix 3, section 2.2.1 shall be used. If the total sample mass of particulates and gaseous pollutants exceeds 0,5% of the total CVS flow, the CVS flow shall be corrected or the particulate sample flow shall be returned to the CVS prior to the flow measuring device.
2.3.
Determination of the gaseous components
2.3.1.
General Analyser Specifications
The analysers shall have a measuring range appropriate for the accuracy required to measure the concentrations of the exhaust gas components (section 1.4.1.1). It is recommended that the analysers be operated in such a way that the measured concentration falls between 15% and 100% of full scale.
If the full scale value is 155 ppm (or ppm C) or less, or if read-out systems (computers, data loggers) that provide sufficient accuracy and resolution below 15% of full scale are used, concentrations below 15% of full scale are also acceptable. In this case, additional calibrations are to be made to ensure the accuracy of the calibration curves - Annex III, Appendix 2, section 1.5.5.2.
The electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of the equipment shall be of a level such as to minimize additional errors.
2.3.1.1.
Measurement error
The analyzer shall not deviate from the nominal calibration point by more than ± 2% of the reading or ± 0,3% of full scale, whichever is larger.
NOTE: For the purpose of this standard, accuracy is defined as the deviation of the analyzer reading from the nominal calibration values using a calibration gas (≡ true value).
2.3.1.2.
Repeatability
The repeatability, defined as 2,5 times the standard deviation of 10 repetitive responses to a given calibration or span gas, must be no greater than ± 1% of full scale concentration for each range used above 155 ppm (or ppm C) or ± 2% for each range used below 155 ppm (or ppm C).
2.3.1.3.
Noise

2.3.1.4.
Zero drift
The zero drift during a one-hour period shall be less than 2% of full scale on the lowest range used. The zero response is defined as the mean response, including noise, to a zero gas during a 30-second time interval.
2.3.1.5.
Span drift
The span drift during a one-hour period shall be less than 2% of full scale on the lowest range used. Span is defined as the difference between the span response and the zero response. The span response is defined as the mean response, including noise, to a span gas during a 30-second time interval.
2.3.1.6.
Rise Time
For raw exhaust gas analysis, the rise time of the analyzer installed in the measurement system shall not exceed 2,5 s.
NOTE: Only evaluating the response time of the analyzer alone will not clearly define the suitability of the total system for transient testing. Volumes, and especially dead volumes, through out the system will not only affect the transportation time from the probe to the analyzer, but also affect the rise time. Also transport times inside of an analyzer would be defined as analyzer response time, like the converter or water traps inside of a NOx analyzers. The determination of the total system response time is described in Appendix 2, Section 1.11.1.
2.3.2.
Gas Drying
Same specifications as for NRSC test cycle apply (Section 1.4.2) as described here below.
The optional gas drying device must have a minimal effect on the concentration of the measured gases. Chemical dryers are not an acceptable method of removing water from the sample.
2.3.3.
Analysers
Same specifications as for NRSC test cycle apply (Section 1.4.3) as described here below.
The gases to be measured shall be analysed with the following instruments. For non-linear analysers, the use of linearizing circuits is permitted.
2.3.3.1.

The oxides of nitrogen analyser shall be of the chemiluminescent detector (CLD) or heated chemiluminescent detector (HCLD) type with a NO2/NO converter, if measured on a dry basis. If measured on a wet basis, a HCLD with converter maintained above 328 K (55oC shall be used, provided the water quench check (Annex III, Appendix 2, section 1.9.2.2) is satisfied.
For both CLD and HCLD, the sampling path shall be maintained at a wall temperature of 328 K to 473 K ( 55oC to 200oC) up to the converter for dry measurement, and up to the analyzer for wet measurement.
2.3.4.
Air to fuel measurement
The air to fuel measurement equipment used to determine the exhaust gas flow as specified in section 2.2.3 shall be a wide range air to fuel ratio sensor or lambda sensor of Zirconia type.
The sensor shall be mounted directly on the exhaust pipe where the exhaust gas temperature is high enough to eliminate water condensation.
The accuracy of the sensor with incorporated electronics shall be within:
± 3 % of reading λ < 2 ± 5 % of reading 2 ≤ λ < 5 ± 10% of reading 5 ≤ λ To fulfil the accuracy specified above, the sensor shall be calibrated as specified by the instrument manufacturer.
2.3.5.
Sampling of Gaseous Emissions
2.3.5.1.
Raw exhaust gas flow
For calculation of the emissions in the raw exhaust gas the same specifications as for NRSC test cycle apply (Section 1.4.4), as described here below.
The gaseous emissions sampling probes must be fitted at least 0,5 m or three times the diameter of the exhaust pipe -whichever is the larger - upstream of the exit of the exhaust gas system as far as applicable and sufficiently close to the engine as to ensure an exhaust gas temperature of at least 343 K (70oC) at the probe.
In the case of a multicylinder engine with a branched exhaust manifold, the inlet of the probe shall be located sufficiently far downstream so as to ensure that the sample is representative of the average exhaust emissions from all cylinders. In multicylinder engines having distinct groups of manifolds, such as in a 'V'-engine configuration, it is permissible to acquire a sample from each group individually and calculate an average exhaust emission. Other methods which have been shown to correlate with the above methods may be used. For exhaust emissions calculation the total exhaust mass flow of the engine must be used.
If the composition of the exhaust gas is influenced by any exhaust after-treatment system, the exhaust sample must be taken upstream of this device in the tests of stage I and downstream of this device in the tests of stage II.
2.3.5.2.
Diluted exhaust gas flow
If a full flow dilution system is used, the following specifications apply.
The exhaust pipe between the engine and the full flow dilution system shall conform to the requirements of Annex VI.
The gaseous emissions sample probe(s) shall be installed in the dilution tunnel at a point where the dilution air and exhaust gas are well mixed, and in close proximity to the particulates sampling probe.
Sampling can generally be done in two ways:
-
the pollutants are sampled into a sampling bag over the cycle and measured after completion of the test;
-
the pollutants are sampled continuously and integrated over the cycle; this method is mandatory for HC and NOx.
The background concentrations shall be sampled upstream of the dilution tunnel into a sampling bag, and shall be subtracted from the emissions concentration according to Appendix 3, Section 2.2.3.
2.4.
Determination of the participates
Determination of the particulates requires a dilution system. Dilution may be accomplished by a partial flow dilution system or a full flow dilution system. The flow capacity of the dilution system shall be large enough to completely eliminate water condensation in the dilution and sampling systems, and maintain the temperature of the diluted exhaust gas between 315 K (42oC) and 325 K (52oC) immediately upstream of the filter holders. De-humidifying the dilution air before entering the dilution system is permitted, if the air humidity is high. Dilution air pre-heating above the temperature limit of 303 K (30 oC) is recommended if the ambient temperature is below 293 K (20 C). However, the diluted air temperature must not exceed 325 K (52oC) prior to the introduction of the exhaust in the dilution tunnel.
The particulate sampling probe shall be installed in close proximity to the gaseous emissions sampling probe, and the installation shall comply with the provisions of Section 2.3.5.
To determine the mass of the particulates, a particulate sampling system, particulate sampling filters, microgram balance, and a temperature and humidity controlled weighing chamber, are required.
Partial flow dilution system specifications
The partial flow dilution system has to be designed to split the exhaust stream into two fractions, the smaller one being diluted with air and subsequently used for particulate measurement. For this it is essential that the dilution ratio be determined very accurately. Different splitting methods can be applied, whereby the type of splitting used dictates to a significant degree the sampling hardware and procedures to be used (Annex VI, section 1.2.1.1).
For the control of a partial flow dilution system, a fast system response is required. The transformation time for the system shall be determined by the procedure described in Appendix 2, Section 1.11.1.
If the combined transformation time of the exhaust flow measurement (see previous Section) and the partial flow system is less than 0,3 s, online control may be used. If the transformation time exceeds 0,3 s, look ahead control based on a pre-recorded test run must be used. In this case, the rise time shall be ≤ 1 s and the delay time of the combination ≤ 10 s.
The total system response shall be designed as to ensure a representative sample of the particulates, G SE , proportional to the exhaust mass flow. To determine the proportionality, a regression analysis of G SE versus G EXHW shall be conducted on a minimum 5 Hz data acquisition rate, and the following criteria shall be met:
-
The correlation coefficient r2 of the linear regression between GSE and GEXHW shall be not less than 0,95.
-
The standard error of estimate of GSE on GEXHW shall not exceed 5% of GSE maximum.
-
GSE intercept of the regression line shall not exceed ± 2% of GSE maximum.
Optionally, a pre-test may be run, and the exhaust mass flow signal of the pre-test be used for controlling the sample flow into the particulate system ("look-ahead control"). Such a procedure is required if the transformation time of the particulate system, t 50,P or/and the transformation time of the exhaust mass flow signal, t 50,F are > 0,3 s. A correct control of the partial dilution system is obtained, if the time trace of G EXHW,pre of the pre-test, which controls G SE , is shifted by a "look-ahead" time of t 50,P + t 50,F.
For establishing the correlation between G SE and G EXHW the data taken during the actual test shall be used, with G EXHW time aligned by t50,F relative to G SE (no contribution from t 50,P to the time alignment). That is, the time shift between G EXHW and G SE is the difference in their transformation times that were determined in Appendix 2, Section 2.6.
For partial flow dilution systems, the accuracy of the sample flow G SE is of special concern, if not measured directly, but determined by differential flow measurement:
G SE = G TOTW - G DILW
In this case an accuracy of ± 2% for G TOTW and G DILW is not sufficient to guarantee acceptable accuracies of G SE . If the gas flow is determined by differential flow measurement, the maximum error of the difference shall be such that the accuracy of G SE is within ± 5% when the dilution ratio is less than 15. It can be calculated by taking root-mean-square of the errors of each instrument.
Acceptable accuracies of G SE can be obtained by either of the following methods:
- (a)
The absolute accuracies of GTOTW and GDILW are ± 0,2% which guarantees an accuracy of GSE of ≤ 5% at a dilution ratio of 15. However, greater errors will occur at higher dilution ratios.
- (b)
Calibration of GDILW relative to GTOTW is carried out such that the same accuracies for GSE as in (a) are obtained. For the details of such a calibration see Appendix 2, Section 2.6.
- (c)
The accuracy of GSE is determined indirectly from the accuracy of the dilution ratio as determined by a tracer gas, e.g. CO2. Again, accuracies equivalent to method (a) for GSE are required.
- (d)
The absolute accuracy of GTOTW and GDILW is within ± 2% of full scale, the maximum error of the difference between GTOTW and GDILW is within 0,2%, and the linearity error is within ± 0.2% of the highest GTOTW observed during the test.

Disturbances to weighing room specifications as outlined in section 2.4.2.1 will be allowed if the duration of the disturbances does not exceed 30 minutes. The weighing room should meet the required specifications prior to personnel entrance into the weighing room. At least two unused reference filters or reference filter pairs shall be weighed within four hours of, but preferably at the same time as the sample filter (pair) weighing. They shall be the same size and material as the sample filters.
If the average weight of the reference filters (reference filter pairs) changes between sample filter weighing by more than 10µg, then all sample filters shall be discarded and the emissions test repeated.
If the weighing room stability criteria outlined in section 2.4.2.1 are not met, but the reference filter (pair) weighing meet the above criteria, the engine manufacturer has the option of accepting the sample filter weights or voiding the tests, fixing the weighing room control system and re-running the test.
2.4.2.3.
Analytical balance
The analytical balance used to determine the weights of all filters shall have a precision (standard deviation) of 2 (µg and a resolution of 1 µg (1 digit = 1 µg) specified by the balance manufacturer.
2.4.2.4.
Elimination of static electricity effects
To eliminate the effects of static electricity, the filters shall be neutralized prior to weighing, for example, by a Polonium neutralizer or a device having similar effect.
2.4.3.
Additional Specifications for Particulate Measurement
All parts of the dilution system and the sampling system from the exhaust pipe up to the filter holder, which are in contact with raw and diluted exhaust gas, must be designed to minimize deposition or alteration of the particulates. All parts must be made of electrically conductive materials that do not react with exhaust gas components, and must be electrically grounded to prevent electrostatic effects.”

“2.6.
Additional calibration requirements for partial flow dilution systems
2.6.1.
Periodical calibration
If the sample gas flow is determined by differential flow measurement the flow meter or the flow measurement instrumentation shall be calibrated by one of the following procedures, such that the probe flow GSE into the tunnel fulfils the accuracy requirements of Appendix I section 2.4:
The flow meter for GDILW is connected in series to the flow meter for G TOTW , the difference between the two flow meters is calibrated for at least 5 set points with flow values equally spaced between the lowest GDILW value used during the test and the value of G TOTW used during the test The dilution tunnel may be bypassed.
A calibrated mass flow device is connected in series to the flowmeter for G TOTW and the accuracy is checked for the value used for the test. Then the calibrated mass flow device is connected in series to the flow meter for GDILW, and the accuracy is checked for at least 5 settings corresponding to the dilution ratio between 3 and 50, relative to G TOTW used during the test.
The transfer tube TT is disconnected from the exhaust, and a calibrated flow measuring device with a suitable range to measure GSE is connected to the transfer tube. Then G TOTW is set to the value used during the test, and GDILW is sequentially set to at least 5 values corresponding to dilution ratios q between 3 and 50. Alternatively, a special calibration flow pathmay be provided, in which the tunnel is bypassed, but the total and dilution air flow through the corresponding meters are maintained as in the actual test.
A tracer gas is fed into the transfer tube TT. This tracer gas may be a component of the exhaust gas, like CO2 or NOx. After dilution in the tunnel the tracer gas component is measured. This shall be carried out for 5 dilution ratios between 3 and 50. The accuracy of the sample flow is determined from the dilution ration q:
GSE = G TOTW /q
The accuracies of the gas analyzers shall be taken into account to guarantee the accuracy of GSE
2.6.2.
Carbon flow check
A carbon flow check using actual exhaust is strongly recommended for detecting measurement and control problems and verifying the proper operation of the partial flow dilution system. The carbon flow check should be run at least each time a new engine is installed, or something significant is changed in the test cell configuration.
The engine shall be operated at peak torque load and speed or any other steady-state mode that produces 5% or more of CO2. The partial flow sampling system shall be operated with a dilution factor of about 15 to 1.
2.6.3.
Pre-test check
A pre-test check shall be performed within 2 hours before the test run in the following way:
The accuracy of the flow meters shall be checked by the same method as used for calibration for at least two points, including flow values of GDILW that correspond to dilution ratios between 5 and 15 for the G TOTW value used during the test.
If it can be demonstrated by records of the calibration procedure described above that the flow meter calibration is stable over a longer period of time, the pre-test check may be omitted.
2.6.4.
Determination of the transformation time
The system settings for the transformation time evaluation shall be exactly the same as during measurement of the test run. The transformation time shall be determined by the following method:
An independent reference flowmeter with a measurement range appropriate for the probe flow shall be put in series with and closely coupled to the probe. This flow meter shall have a transformation time of less than 100 ms for the flow step size used in the response time measurement, with flow restriction sufficiently low not to affect the dynamic performance of the partial flow dilution system, and consistent with good engineering practice.
A step change shall be introduced to the exhaust flow (or air flow if exhaust flow is calculated) input of the partial flow dilution system, from a low flow to at least 90% of full scale. The trigger for the step change should be the same one as that used to start the look-ahead control in actual testing. The exhaust flow step stimulus and the flowmeter response shall be recorded at a sample rate of at least 10 Hz.
From this data, the transformation time shall be determined for the partial flow dilution system, which is the time from the initiation of the step stimulus to the 50% point of the flowmeter response. In a similar manner, the transformation times of the GSE signal of the partial flow dilution system and of the G EXHW signal of the exhaust flow meter shall be determined. These signals are used in the regression checks performed after each test (Appendix I section 2.4).
The calculation shall be repeated for at least 5 rise and fall stimuli, and the results shall be averaged. The internal transformation time (<100 ms) of the reference flowmeter shall be subtracted from this value. This is the "look-ahead" value of the partial flow dilution system, which shall be applied in accordance with Appendix I section 2.4.”

CALIBRATION OF THE CVS SYSTEM
3.1.
General
The CVS system shall be calibrated by using an accurate flowmeter and means to change operating conditions.
The flow through the system shall be measured at different flow operating settings, and the control parameters of the system shall be measured and related to the flow.
Various type of flowmeters may be used, e.g. calibrated venturi, calibrated laminar flowmeter, calibrated turbinemeter.
3.2.
Calibration of the Positive Displacement Pump (PDP)
All the parameters related to the pump shall be simultaneously measured along with the parameters related to a calibration venturi which is connected in series with the pump. The calculated flow rate (in m3/min at pump inlet, absolute pressure and temperature) shall be plotted against a correlation function which is the value of a specific combination of pump parameters. The linear equation which relates the pump flow and the correlation function shall be determined. If a CVS has a multiple speed drive, the calibration shall be performed for each range used.
Temperature stability shall be maintained during calibration.
Leaks in all the connections and ducting between the calibration venturi and the CVS pump shall be maintained lower than 0,3% of the lowest flow point (highest restriction and lowest PDP speed point).
3.2.1.
Data Analysis
The air flowrate (Qs) at each restriction setting (minimum 6 settings) shall be calculated in standard m3/min from the flowmeter data using the manufacturer's prescribed method. The air flow rate shall then be converted to pump flow (V0) in m3/rev at absolute pump inlet temperature and pressure as follows:
where,
Qs Tair flow rate at standard conditions (101,3 kPa, 273 K) (m3/s)
pAtemperature at pump inlet (K)
nabsolute pressure at pump inlet (pB- p1) (kPa)
pump speed (rev/s)
To account for the interaction of pressure variations at the pump and the pump slip rate, the correlation function (X0) between pump speed, pressure differential from pump inlet to pump outlet and absolute pump outlet pressure shall be calculated as follows:
where,
Δp p pApressure differential from pump inlet to pump outlet (kPa)
absolute outlet pressure at pump outlet (kPa)
A linear least-square fit shall be performed to generate the calibration equation as follows:
D0 and m are the intercept and slope constants, respectively, describing the regression lines.
For a CVS system with multiple speeds, the calibration curves generated for the different pump flow ranges shall be approximately parallel, and the intercept values (D0) shall increase as the pump flow range decreases.
The values calculated by the equation shall be within ± 0,5% of the measured value of V0. Values of m will vary from one pump to another. Particulate influx over time will cause the pump slip to decrease, as reflected by lower values for m. Therefore, calibration shall be performed at pump start-up, after major maintenance, and if the total system verification (section 3.5) indicates a change in the slip rate.
3.3.
Calibration of the Critical Flow Venturi (CFV)
Calibration of the CFV is based upon the flow equation for a critical venturi. Gas flow is a function of inlet pressure and temperature, as shown below:

temperature at venturi inlet (K)
3.3.1.
Data Analysis
The air flow rate (Qs) at each restriction setting (minimum 8 settings) shall be calculated in standard m3/min from the flowmeter data using the manufacturer's prescribed method. The calibration coefficient shall be calculated from the calibration data for each setting as follows:
where,
Qs Tair flow rate at standard conditions (101,3 kPa, 273 K) (m3/s)
pAtemperature at the venturi inlet (K)
absolute pressure at venturi inlet (kPa)
To determine the range of critical flow, Kv shall be plotted as a function of venturi inlet pressure. For critical (choked) flow, Kv will have a relatively constant value. As pressure decreases (vacuum increases), the venturi becomes unchoked and Kv decreases, which indicates that the CFV is operated outside the permissible range.
For a minimum of eight points in the region of critical flow, the average KV and the standard deviation shall be calculated. The standard deviation shall not exceed ± 0,3% of the average KV
3.4.
Calibration of the Subsonic Venturi (SSV)
Calibration of the SSV is based upon the flow equation for a subsonic venturi. Gas flow is a function of inlet pressure and temperature, pressure drop between the SSV inlet and throat, as shown below:

3.4.1.
Data Analysis
The air flow rate (QSSV) at each flow setting (minimum 16 settings) shall be calculated in standard m3/min from the flowmeter data using the manufacturer's prescribed method. The discharge coefficient shall be calculated from the calibration data for each setting as follows:
where,
QSSV Tair flow rate at standard conditions (101,3 kPa, 273 K), m3/s
dtemperature at the venturi inlet, K
rdiameter of the SSV throat, m
ßratio of the SSV throat to inlet absolute, static pressure =
ratio of the SSV throat diameter, d, to the inlet pipe inner diameter =
To determine the range of subsonic flow, Cd shall be plotted as a function of Reynolds number, at the SSV throat. The Re at the SSV throat is calculated with the following formula:
where,
A1 QSSVa collection of constants and units conversions
dair flow rate at standard conditions (101,3 kPa, 273 K) (m3/s)
μdiameter of the SSV throat (m)
absolute or dynamic viscosity of the gas, calculated with the following formula:
where:
b Sempirical constant =
empirical constant = 110,4 K
Because QSSV is an input to the Re formula, the calculations must be started with an initial guess for QSSV or Cd of the calibration venturi, and repeated until QSSV converges. The convergence method must be accurate to 0,1% or better.
For a minimum of sixteen points in the subsonic flow region, the calculated values of Cd from the resulting calibration curve fit equation must be within ± 0,5% of the measured Cd for each calibration point.

DATA EVALUATION AND CALCULATIONS (NRTC TEST)
The two following measurement principles that can be used for the evaluation of pollutant emissions over the NRTC cycle are described in this section:
-
the gaseous components are measured in the raw exhaust gas on a real time basis, and the particulates are determined using a partial flow dilution system;
-
the gaseous components and the particulates are determined using a full flow dilution system (CVS system).
2.1.
Calculation of gaseous emissions in the raw exhaust gas and of the particulate emissions with a partial flow dilution system
2.1.1.
Introduction
The instantaneous concentration signals of the gaseous components are used for the calculation of the mass emissions by multiplication with the instantaneous exhaust mass flow rate. The exhaust mass flow rate may be measured directly, or calculated using the methods described in Annex III, Appendix 1, section 2.2.3 (intake air and fuel flow measurement, tracer method, intake air and air/fuel ratio measurement). Special attention shall be paid to the response times of the different instruments. These differences shall be accounted for by time aligning the signals.
For particulates, the exhaust mass flow rate signals are used for controlling the partial flow dilution system to take a sample proportional to the exhaust mass flow rate. The quality of proportionality is checked by applying a regression analysis between sample and exhaust flow as described in Annex III, Appendix 1, section 2.4.

Calculation of mass emission

Preferably, the concentrations should be measured on a wet basis. If measured on a dry basis, the dry/wet correction as described here below shall be applied to the instantaneous concentration values before any further calculation is done.

APPENDIX 5
DURABILITY REQUIREMENTS
1.
EMISSION DURABILITY PERIOD AND DETERIORATION FACTORS.
This appendix shall apply to CI engines Stage IIIA and IIIB and IV only.
1.1.
Manufacturers shall determine a Deterioration Factor (DF) value for each regulated pollutant for all Stage IIIA and IIIB engine families. Such DFs shall be used for type approval and production line testing.
1.1.1.
Test to establish DF's shall be conducted as follows:
- 1.1.1.1.
The manufacturer shall conduct durability tests to accumulate engine operating hours according to a test schedule that is selected on the basis of good engineering judgement to be representative of in-use engine operation in respect to characterizing emission performance deterioration. The durability test period should typically represent the equivalent of at least one quarter of the Emission Durability Period (EDP).
Service accumulation operating hours may be acquired through running engines on a dynamometer test bed or from actual in-field machine operation. Accelerated durability tests can be applied whereby the service accumulation test schedule is performed at a higher load factor than typically experienced in the field. The acceleration factor relating the number of engine durability test hours to the equivalent number of EDP hours shall be determined by the engine manufacturer based on good engineering judgement.
During the period of the durability test, no emission sensitive components can be serviced or replaced other than to the routine service schedule recommended by the manufacturer.
The test engine, subsystems, or components to be used to determine exhaust emission DF's for an engine family, or for engine families of equivalent emission control system technology, shall be selected by the engine manufacturer on the basis of good engineering judgement. The criteria is that the test engine should represent the emission deterioration characteristic of the engine families that will apply the resulting DF values for certification approval. Engines of different bore and stroke, different configuration, different air management systems, different fuel systems can be considered as equivalent in respect to emissions deterioration characteristics if there is a reasonable technical basis for such determination.
DF values from another manufacturer can be applied if there is a reasonable basis for considering technology equivalence with respect to emissions deterioration, and evidence that the tests have been carried according to the specified requirements.
Emissions testing will be performed according to the procedures defined in this Directive for the test engine after initial run-in but before any service accumulation, and at the completion of the durability. Emission tests can also be performed at intervals during the service accumulation test period, and applied in determining the deterioration trend.
- 1.1.1.2.
The service accumulation tests or the emissions tests performed to determine deterioration must not be witnessed by the approval authority.
- 1.1.1.3.
Determination of DF values from Durability Tests
An additive DF is defined as the value obtained by subtraction of the emission value determine at the beginning of the EDP, from the emissions value determined to represent the emission performance at the end of the EDP.
A multiplicative DF is defined as the emission level determined for the end of the EDP divided by the emission value recorded at the beginning of the EDP.
Separate DF values shall be established for each of the pollutants covered by the legislation. In the case of establishing a DF value relative to the NOx+HC standard, for an additive DF, this is determined based on the sum of the pollutants notwithstanding that a negative deterioration for one pollutant may not offset deterioration for the other. For a multiplicative NOx+HC DF, separate HC and NOx DF's shall be determined and applied separately when calculating the deteriorated emission levels from an emissions test result before combining the resultant deteriorated NOx and HC values to esatablish compliance with the standard.
In cases where the testing is not conducted for the full EDP, the emission values at the end of the EDP is determined by extrapolation of the emission deterioration trend established for the test period, to the full EDP.
When emissions test results have been recorded periodically during the service accumulation durability testing, standard statistical processing techniques based on good practice shall be applied to determine the emission levels at the end of the EDP; statistical significance testing can be applied in the determination of the final emissions values.
If the calculation results in a value of less than 1.00 for a multiplicative DF, or less than 0.00 for an additive DF, then the DF shall be 1.0 or 0.00, respectively.
- 1.1.1.4.
A manufacturer may, with the approval of the type approval authority, use DF values established from results of durability tests conducted to obtain DF values for certification of on-road FID CI engines. This will be allowed if there is technological equivalency between the test on-road engine and the non-road engine families applying the DF values for certification. The DF values derived from on-road engine emission durability test results, must be calculated on the basis of EDP values defined in section 2.
- 1.1.1.5.
In the case where an engine family uses established technology, an analysis based on good engineering practices may be used in lieu of testing to determine a deterioration factor for that engine family subject to approval of the type approval authority.
1.2.
DF information in approval applications
- 1.2.1.
Additive DF's shall be specified for each pollutant in an engine family certification application for CI engines not using any aftertreatment device.
- 1.2.2.
Multiplicative DF's shall be specified for each pollutant in an engine family certification application for CI engines using an aftertreatment device.
- 1.2.3.
The manufacture shall furnish the Type Approval agency on request with information to support the DF values. This would typically include emission test results, service accumulation test schedule, maintenance procedures together with information to support engineering judgements of technological equivalency, if applicable.
