To prevent the environment from polluting, the request of emissions control legislation becomes more stringent. New legislation prescribes not only the emissions limitation of vehicles, but also testing instruments and methods. Test car must be operated on the chassis dynamometer and data must be collect ed and analyzed with prescriptive exhaust analysis system as well. The mass of harmful exhaust gas, containing the concentration and volume of emis sion, which is independent from the model of automobile and engine, can be used as a criterion to evaluate the pollution of an automobile. Constant Volume Sampl e System (CVS) is used to measure vehicle emissions, but it is too expensive to apply extensively. The Vehicle Mass Analysis System(Vmas), a new vehicle exhaust mass analysis system produced in USA late 1990s,is used to test and analyze veh icle exhaust. As a test instrument, it has the virtue of cheapness and easy mana geability. In this paper, Vmas is used to measure the emissions of a light truck CA1020F. A ccording to 15 running modes of Vehicle Exhaust Legislation, the test car is ope rated on the chassis dynamometer and data are collected and analyzed with Vmas. The test results show that it is viable to measure and evaluate automobile emiss ion with Vmas. Most of HC exhaust is produced when the car is decelerating. The major factor that influences the mass of HC emission is the sudden decrease of e ngine load causing incomplete combustion in decelerating mode. Test results indi cate CO and NOx are mainly produced in the process of increasing load. The forme r reason is incomplete combustion and the latter is high burning temperature cau sed by the increasing load. The methods of reducing automobile emission are also discussed in this paper.展开更多
