In order to meet the requirements of the future
assessment of the China Ⅶ emission standard for heavy-duty vehicles on cold start emissions during real road tests, the
cold start characteristics of heavy-duty vehicles under
real road driving conditions were investigated, and 16 629.4 h remotely
monitored emission data from 36 in-use eight-typed heavy-duty vehicles were analyzed and
studied. The results show that for vehicles with the same usage vehicles, the
average trip duration and average work increase with the increase of the
maximum gross mass. The average cold start duration of all vehicles was 912.4
s, the average proportion of cold start duration was 38.58%, and the World
Harmonized Transient Cycle (WHTC) cycle power multiplier of the average cold
start work was 0.25. For real driving conditions, the vehicles might run for a
long time without being able to complete the warm-up
due to the effect of low ambient temperature, frequent start-stop, or long idling speeds. Optimizing cold start emissions for
heavy-duty vehicles would be one of the challenges in
meeting future emission standard upgrades.
