Clean-burning diesel engines. Interim report, July 1983-December 1984 on Phase 2

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5627235
Gaseous, particulate, and unregulated emissions were measured from four diesel forklift engines under a variety of steady-state conditions. An EPA certification fuel was used to determine emission rates for CO, CO/sub 2/, NOx, HC, particulate, sulfur dioxide, suflate, organic sulfides, phenols, DOAS (Diesel Odor Analysis System) odor, and aldehydes. Four engines included in this evaluation were Deutz F3L 912W, Deutz F4L912W, Perkins 4.2032 and Perkins 4.2482. Additional emission tests were conducted with Deutz F3L 912W with MIL-F-46162A(MR) and MIL-F-46162B(ME) reference fuels. Data from Phase I are also included for comparison purposes. The effect of selected induced faults on emission rates of the Deutz F3L 912W was also determined. These induced faults included intake air restriction, exhaust restriciton, and injection pump timing. Emission rates were reported in g/he, g/hp-hr and concentration, i.e., ppm, percent, micrograms/cu m.
