Abstract

The development of prototype instruments to remotely and non-intrusively measure the NO _x and particulate matter (PM) emissions from heavy-duty diesel trucks, was investigated. Chassis lab experiments were performed using a light-duty diesel vehicle and road testing was performed using the same light-duty diesel vehicle and 2 heavy-duty diesel vehicles. The prototype emissions monitoring instruments employ an ultraviolet (UV) absorption method to measure NO _x and a modified LIDAR method to measure PM concentrations. The results show that NO _x measurement technique has the spatial resolution to gather the data of interest, but enhancements will be needed to improve the temporal resolution for highway speeds.
