Taking a heavy-duty diesel vehicle compliant
with China Ⅵ b emission standards as the research
subject, the vehicle emission characteristics under different ambient
temperatures were researched by introducing a dual-stage
SCR system equipped with an
electric heating device. Through the synergistic effect of engine thermal
management (combustion mode switching) and aftertreatment thermal management
(electric heating enablement), the vehicle emission test results in CHTC-HT cycle showed different emissions levels under different ambient
temperatures. Compared to cycle-averaged emission
results collected at -10 ℃,
NH3 emissions at 10 ℃ and 40 ℃ decreased by 76.74% and 83.97% respectively, and N2O emissions decreased by 48.71% and 66.94% respectively. Meanwhile,
the cycle-averaged NOx emissions increased by approximately 19% at both temperatures,
while PN10 emissions
increased to 3.91 times and 10.79 times respectively, and PN23 emissions increased to 5.52 times and
15.05 times respectively.The first 400 seconds of the CHTC-HT test cycle represented the peak period for NOx and PN10 emissions. The primary cause of PN10 emissions stemmed from particulate matter generated by urea
injection and the interaction of condensate with particulate matter. The front
to rear urea injection ratio significantly impacted NH3 and N2O emissions. At high temperatures, increasing rear urea injection led to the
higher NH3 and N2O emissions.
