Purpose
The
purpose
of
this
test
sequence
was
to
determine
if
the
proposed
Ramped
Modal
Cycle
(
RMC)
emissions
with
a
2013­
like
engine
and
catalyst
system
correlated
to
the
established
steady
state
8
mode
test
cycle
for
nonroad
diesel
engines
(
C­
1).
In
addition
two
PM
measurement
filter
media
were
checked
for
correlation.
Results
of
the
PM
media
correlation
will
be
reported
separately.
The
RMC
test
was
developed
in
part
to
capture
discrete
regeneration
events
associated
with
advanced
catalyst
systems
like
NOx
adsorbers
that
are
anticipated
to
meet
future
non­
road
emission
standards.
To
achieve
this
the
RMC
calls
for
sampling
gaseous
and
particulate
emissions
continuously
over
the
cycle.
The
C­
1
specifies
that
samples
be
taken
for
only
a
portion
of
the
time
at
each
mode.

Test
Procedures
Engine
Description
The
engine
used
for
this
testing
was
a
European
Cummins
ISBe
onhighway
engine
with
a
5.9
l
displacement.
The
engine
details
are
shown
in
Table
1.
The
engine
was
de­
rated
to
simulate
a
non­
road
(
NR)
application.
A
lowpressure
loop
EGR
system
was
used
to
reduce
engine
out
NOx
emissions.
This
system
draws
exhaust
downstream
of
the
catalysts,
cools
it
with
engine
coolant,
and
introduces
it
to
the
compressor
inlet
via
an
STT
EMTEC
valve.
The
EGR
and
fuel
system
calibrations
allowed
the
engine
to
achieve
about
2.5
g/
hp­
hr
NOx
over
the
RMC
and
C­
1
cycles.

Exhaust
System
Description
A
multi­
path
catalyst
system
as
described
previously
in
SAE
2003­
01­
2305
was
used
for
this
test.
This
system
consists
of
four
exhaust
flow
paths
each
containing
a
PM
filter
and
NOx
adsorber.
A
DOC
was
located
after
the
four
flow
paths
were
rejoined
into
a
single
path.
The
catalyst
details
are
described
in
Table
2.
The
multi­
path
system
regenerates
the
NOx
adsorbers
periodically
by
closing
off
the
regenerating
leg.
While
the
exhaust
flow
is
reduced
in
this
way
diesel
fuel
is
injected
to
cause
the
exhaust
to
go
rich
and
regenerate
the
adsorber.

Test
Fuel
The
fuel
used
for
this
testing
was
Phillips
Chemical
Company
Lot
2CULD01.
The
fuel
was
specified
to
be
similar
to
what
is
expected
to
be
available
starting
in
2006.
The
key
exception
is
the
sulfur
level
that
is
well
below
the
2007
cap
of
15
ppm.
The
specifications
are
given
in
Table
3.

Test
Cycles
Initially
the
C­
1
was
run
with
10
minute
modes
as
specified
by
ISO
8178­
4
8.1.2.
Likewise
emissions
were
recorded
for
the
last
3
minutes
of
each
mode.
A
single
PM
sample
was
taken
for
the
complete
cycle.
PM
was
time­
weighted
according
to
the
modal
weighting
factors.
In
this
case
a
2
or
3
minute
sample
was
taken
for
each
mode
depending
on
the
weighting.
The
engine
was
conditioned
for
5
minutes
at
rated
power
prior
to
each
cycle.
