CHARACTERIZATION OF PARTICLES FROM A CURRENT TECHNOLOGY HEAVY-DUTY DIESEL ENGINE

The physical and chemical properties and morphology of particles from a current technology diesel engine run under steady-state conditions were determined during 5 campaigns across 3 calendar years. Concentrations of particulate matter, NO sub(x), HC, CO, and CO sub(2) measured at a fixed sampling position were found to be repeatable between campaigns. However particle size distributions and number concentrations were greatly affected by dilution conditions. Other results, including those involving particle density and phase, are presented and discussed.
