Diesel particulate composition changes along an air cooled exhaust pipe and dilution tunnel
Exhaust particulate and gas composition samples were obtained at various distances along an externally air cooled exhaust from a Perkins 4-236 single cylinder engine. The change in the particulate composition was determined as a function of the exhaust distance and local temperature. Exhaust temperatures were in the range 200 - 260C at entry to the tunnel at all engine conditions. A constant filter paper and sample temperature of 50C was used for both exhaust and dilution tunnel samples and the filter paper was mounted in an oven for this purpose and the particulate sample was transported through heated lines to this oven. Associated with these particulate measurements were gas analysis measurements. UHC were measured at 180, 50 and 2C in the exhaust and the differences were taken as an indicator of the condensable hydrocarbons over that temperature difference. The results are described in this paper.
