BACKGROUND Reported data indicates sparse amount of 3sec NTE windows from a shift day (8 hours) Actual amount of total NTE operation is often quite considerable In-use SCR activity data and thermal management strategies Pending NO x and GHG regulations Retain ability to identify off-cycle emissions, but strengthen the relationship between certification (compliance) and real-world emissions Open discussion on current EXISTING practices to assure that emissions reductions demonstrated on certification cycles are also translated into lower off-cycle emissions during real-world vehicle operation Compliance strategies and their impact on emissions inventory reduction plans
IN-USE EMISSIONS - Regulations and Compliance Overview PEMS are used to measure emissions while a vehicle is performing it s intended activity. Continuous measurement of gaseous and PM concentrations, exhaust flow rate, ambient conditions, along with broadcast ECU parameters such as engine speed, torque, fuel flow rate, etc. Data must be collected a minimum of one full-shift day (8 hours), with at least 3 hour non-idle operation.
NOT-TO-EXCEED ZONE - Definition Speed Lower Bound (n 15 ): 15% ESC Speed n 15 = n lo +.15 x (n hi n lo ) n hi : highest engine speed where 7% of max power line intersect with max. torque curve. n lo : lowest engine speed where 5% of max power line intersects with max. torque curve. Torque Lower Bound: 3% of Peak Torque. Power Lower Bound: 3% of Rated Power. Torque Upper Bound: is the maximum torque curve of the engine (Advertized Engine Map).

WORK-BASED WINDOW Moving averaging windows that are integrated against reference value (work or emissions) from representative engine certification cycle Emissions are integrated over a window size equivalent to the reference value Moving averages are incremented by data sampling period Valid windows are those that the average power exceeds 2% of maximum engine power (EU regulation) Same idea as 3% max power lower boundary of NTE zone (US-EPA regulation) Successful test shall comprise of 5% of valid windows, otherwise, power threshold is reduced in steps of 1% to achieve 5% of valid windows Test voided if 5% of valid windows cannot be achieved for a power threshold of 15%.

NEW APPROACH EXAMPLE - NOx Use window-based approach (distance, energy, etc.) Consider full operating regime more representative of actual emissions contribution/emissions control strategy performance Integrate windows and compare relevant physical parameter (e.g. SCR outlet temperature exclusion) Validation based upon??? Physical parameter performance during engine certification cycle Weighting of emissions, based on parameter weighting during certification cycle Non-restrictive as to meeting defined number of points or minimum operation during a shift-day Originally considering only altitude exclusion
