Verification of PEMS measurement accuracy based on light vehicle emission test system

Abstract

For the requirements of the portable emission measurement system (PEMS) measurement accuracy for limits and measurement methods for emissions from light-duty vehicles(CHINA 6), based on the light-duty vehicle emission test system in steady-state conditions and WLTC conditions for PEMS gaseous pollutants, mass flow rate , particle number (PN) verify accuracy of measurement. The results showed that the relative measurement errors of CO, CO2, NOx, fuel consumption and mass flow rate were −5.49%, 2.53%, 10.55%, 2.09% and −2.79%. The relative measurement errors of CO, CO2, NOx, fuel consumption and PN under WLTC condition were 6.67%, 2.54%, 12.96%, 2.37% and −16.08%, which meeting the requirements of the regulations.
