This article is to provide reasonably accurate vehicle emission estimates for the four sampled fuels which are commercially available across the nation. Emission quantities are obtained by testing a vehicle on a chassis dynamometer and capturing a sample of the emissions from the tailpipe in vehicle. The vehicle is driven following a particular pattern of idle, acceleration, cruise, and deceleration. Shown here is the trace of the test cycle known as the CVS-75 Mode which is used to certify the emission performance standards. The mode of CVS-75 consists of a cold start cycle, a hot stabilized cycle, and a hot start cycle. Emissions for the pollutants are measured in vehicle testing. These are carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), and total hydrocarbon (THC). The test results summarized in this report indicate that the differences for the amount of emission are quantitatively minimal.

EGR(Exhaust Gas Recirculation) is an effective strategy to control nitrogen oxides emissions from diesel engine. The EGR reduces $NO_x$ through lowering the oxygen concentration in the combustion chamber as well as through heat absorption. However, application of EGR system is difficult because of the penalty in fuel consumption and the increase in particulate matter. The engine used for the experimental was a 3-cylinder 0.8-liter turbo-charged light duty diesel engine with an electronic EGR valve. In this study, experiments were performed at variable vehicle speeds and loads on the chassis dynamometer. To evaluate the exhaust emissions with the EGR system testing was performed using cvs-75 mode test procedure. Results of the cvs-75 mode test achieve sufficiently to meet EURO3 standards.

After-treatment apparatus ceramic DPF (diesel particulate filter) have been applied to reduce harmful particulate matters(PM) among emissions from diesel engines so far, but they are easy to be fragile and weak in thermal shock. This research aims to investigate a metal type filter which is superior in mechanical strength and heat conduction rate and is beneficial economically in manufacturing. Basic performance of metal DPF such asloading test, temperature gradient test, thermal shock test, heat resistant test and back pressure was carried out. And then their experimental data provided key informations in designing and manufacturing such as detailed structures of metal mesh filter. Also diesel engine and vehicle of 2957cc displacement was tested under lug-down 3 mode and CVS-75 mode. PM reduction efficiency was 54.5% using metal DPF without loss of performance and fuel consumption.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has played an important role in receptor modeling area because it is a powerful tool for characterizing individual particles. The purpose of the study was to classify individual diesel particles base on statistical analysis and image analysis by SEM/EDX (energy dispersive x-ray analyser). The diesel particles were sampled by both a modified CVS 75 mode and a high speed mode with a chassis dynamometer. The SEM/EDX system provides various physical parameters including particle's particle diameter and chemical information. Thus density and mass of the diesel particle were estimated cased on its chemical composition and further fractal dimensions of the diesel particle were obtained by the Hurst exponent method. The fractal dimension in the sample of modified CVS 75 mode was higher than the high speed mode. Finally, mass fractions for a diesel vehicle as a source profile were estimated cased on a particle class concept.

In this study the characteristics of E-EGR valve developed by electrical method were analysed and the feasibility of application to vehicles was evaluated. The engine of smart car applied for diesel passenger car of small-displacement size developed by common vehicle was used for this experiment. It was installed a 3-cylinder, $0.8\ell$, turbo-charged light duty diesel engine with an electronic EGR valve. After the analysis and comparison of E-EGR valve performance by test bench, the estimation of vehicle application was executed through the EGR map and CVS-75 test result measured on the chassis dynamometer.

The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) is needed for one of various strategies to reduce NOx emission. But to get the proper EGR rate, the intake and exhaust system become complicated, also application of EGR system is difficult because of the penalty in fuel consumption and the increase in particulate matter. This study is focused on the development of EGR valve using the electrical method. The effects of EGR on the characteristics of NOx, CO, CO2 emissions and particulate mater have been investigated using small-displacement size 0.8-liters engine of diesel passenger car operating at several loads and speeds. After the analysis and comparison between conventional E-EGR valve and developed E-EGR valve performance by test bench, the estimation of vehicle application was executed through the EGR map and CVS-75 test result measured on the chassis dynamometer.

In this study, the used DOCs, which could remove the air pollutants such as CO and HC in the exhaust gas from diesel vehicle, were remanufactured by various conditions. Their catalytic performances and characterization were also investigated. The remanufacturing process of the deactivated DOCs includes high temperature cleaning of incineration, ultrasonic cleaning for washing with acid/base solutions to remove deactivating materials deposited to the surface of the catalysts, and active component reimpregnation for reactivating catalytic activity of them. The catalytic performance tests of the remanufactured DOCs were carried out by the diesel engine dynamo systems and chassi dynamo systems in CVS-75 mode. All prepared catalysts were characterized by the optical microscopes, SEM, EDX, porosimeter and BET to investigate correlations between catalytic reactivity and surface characteristics of them. The remanufactured DOCs at various conditions showed the improved catalytic performances reaching to 90% of fresh DOC, which is attributed to remove the deactivating materials from the surface of the used DOC through the analysis of catalytic performance test and their characterization.

The diesel engine exhaust gas is know as one of the causes to produce photochemical smog, which causes damage on environmental. However, due to the high thermal efficiency and low carbon dioxide emission, the usage of a diesel engine is prevailed. In this study, the DC non-thermal plasma technology used to the particulate matter (PM) aftertreatment. The exhaust gas characteristics and energy density were investigated on the dynamometer test bed and chassis dynamometer with CVS-75 mode in a passenger diesel car. It was reported that the smoke removal efficiency has around the 70% in the dynamometer test with 80W energy consumption and the PM removal efficiency has the 68% in the real car test. The NOx also reduced the 20% according to electrode type respectively. Considering these results, plasma technology is one of the ways to simultaneously removing method the particulate matter (PM) and NOx.

Recently, the nano-PM's number concentration emitted by diesel internal combustion engine has focused on attention because this particulate matters are suspected being hazardous of human health. In this study, The nano-PM mass and size of diesel passenger vehicles were measured on chassis dynamometer test bench. The particulate matters(PM) emissions of these vehicles were investigated by number concentration too. A condensation particle counter(CPC) system was applied to measure the particle number and size concentration of diesel exhaust particles at the end of dilution tunnel along the NEDC(ECE15+EUDC) and CVS-75 vehicle test mode. As the research result, the characteristic of vehicle test mode on the diesel nano-particle number and size distribution was investigated in this study.

In this paper, emission analysis during cold start period of CVS-75 mode in LPG vehicle was performed to find out proper operating conditions of SAI(Secondary Air Injection) system. In order to meet SULEV target, the simulated emission system had a SAI system as well as a MCC(Manifold Catalytic Converter) and a UCC(Under body Catalytic Converter). Using commercial 1-D code AMESIM, in which 7 step global surface chemical reactions of Langmuir-Hinshelwood type were adopted, transient emission analysis in the exhaust system during cold start period of CVS-75 mode were carried out to figure out the effects of flow rate, duration of supply air on HC, CO, NO emission.
