Challenges quantifying ultra low diesel emissions
• PM (particle mass) of <50% of 2007 standard drives the total uncertainty >30% in the gravimetric method: – Swanson et al. SAE 2009-01-1516. – Burtscher et al. JAS, 2005, 36, 896. – And several papers by other researchers.
• Nuclei mode particles are difficult to have a repeatable conditions. – Solid particle number (PN) method (a.k.a. PMP=Particle
Measurement Programme) – Integrated particle size distribution (IPSD) – Chemically reconstructed mass method – Measurement of precursors of nuclei mode particles (organic acids,
sulfuric acid)

Issues with number measurement
• Current PMP method regulates “solid” particles larger than 23 nm – For engines equipped with particle filters regulating to
23 nm effectively regulates all sizes. – For engines without filters (advanced fuels,
combustion modes, gasoline) there may be large concentrations of solid particles below 23 nm that are not counted by current method.
– The next generation of high efficiency direct injection gasoline engines are challenged by the current standard even with the 23 nm limit.

Issues with number measurement
• Extending solid PN (particle number) measurements to 10 nm. – Significant semi-volatile particles downstream of PMP VPR
(Volatile Particle Remover) often observed. – No significant semi-volatile formation downstream of catalytic
stripper (CS) in this size range.
• Extending solid PN (particle number) measurements to below 10 nm – problematic – Particles as small as sub 3 nm formed in large concentrations
downstream of PMP VPR (Volatile Particle Remover). – Some evidence of solid particle formation by VPR. – Sub 10 nm particle formation observed downstream of catalytic
stripper (CS) under some conditions. – Removal of sulfate or other low vapor pressure species is
critical.

Unexpectedly large “solid” particle concentrations during UCR’s previous PMP study
• A heavy-duty truck equipped with a CRT (continuously regenerating trap) was tested over different driving cycles on road. – It showed large concentration of “solid” particles below 23 nm at high
load conditions. – These conditions favor sulfate particle formation. – Filtration efficiency for particles below 23nm should be very high.

The CPC_2.5 and CPC_3 disagree at the higher dilution ratio downstream of the PMP system but agree for 50 nm calibration aerosols suggesting that the particles are near the lower detection sizes of the instruments, < 3 nm.
When connected directly to CVS, no removal of volatiles, CPCs agree and show lower concentration than when volatiles are removed at 500 DR

Summary of results at 26% load cruise • Much lower concentrations than at 74%
•Downstream of PMP system •In first time window, DR = 500
•CPC_23_PMP and CPC_10 agree – no particles between 10 and 23 nm •CPC_2.5 and CPC_3 read much higher and disagree – many particles below lower cutoff size of these instruments, 2.5 to 3 nm
•In second time window, DR = 100 •CPC_23_PMP and CPC_10 read higher but agree – no particles between 10 and 23 nm but formation above 23 nm •CPC_2.5 and CPC_3 agree but read only slightly higher than CPC_23_PMP and CPC_10 – nearly all particles have grown to above 23 nm
•Downstream of CS •Consistently lower reading and agreement between instruments
• In last time window instruments bypass volatile particle removal systems and are directly connect to CVS – measure total solid and volatile particles – fewer particles than DR = 500 PMP, clear evidence of particle formation by PMP system.

Conclusion
• Current PMP method regulates “solid” particles larger than 23 nm – For engines equipped with particle filters regulating to 23 nm
effectively regulates all sizes – For engines without filters (advanced fuels, combustion modes,
gasoline) there may be large concentrations of solid particles below 23 nm that are not counted by current method
– The next generation of high efficiency direct injection gasoline engines are challenged by the current standard even with the 23 nm limit

Conclusion (continued)
• Extending solid PN (particle number) measurements to 10 nm – Significant semi-volatile particles downstream of PMP VPR often
observed – No significant semi-volatile formation downstream of catalytic
stripper in this size range
• Extending solid PN (particle number) measurements to below 10 nm – problematic – Particles as small as sub 3 nm formed in large concentrations
downstream of PMP VPR – Some evidence of solid particle formation by VPR – Sub 10 nm particle formation observed downstream of CS under
some conditions – Removal of sulfate or other low vapor pressure species critical
