SIMULATION SYSTEM FOR SIMULATING PARTICULATE MATTER EMISSIONS OF AN ENGINE

摘要

A simulation system for simulating particulate matter emissions of an engine is provided. The simulation system comprises a soot generator and an exhaust assembly. The soot generator generates soot. The exhaust assembly is positioned downstream to the soot generator in an exhaust flow direction. The exhaust assembly includes a primary diluter, a catalytic stripper, at least one secondary diluter, a residence chamber, and a tail pipe, which are positioned sequentially in the exhaust flow direction. Components of the exhaust assembly are in fluid communication with the other components positioned upstream or downstream to them. The tail pipe includes a first sample port and a second sample port. The first sample port is fluidly connected to a reference measuring instrument and the second sample port being connected to a particulate measuring instrument.
