Abstract
Due to a rapid development of air transportation there is a need for the assessment of real environmental risk related to the aircraft operation. The main environmental perils are the toxic exhaust emissions. The paper presents the results of the emission tests of a small airplane engine under real operating conditions.
Highlights
One of the factors stimulating the technology advancement in all the branches of industry is the necessity to restrict its negative impact on the natural environment
The application of advanced technologies and their further development forces a constant verification of the operating conditions of machines and their impact on the living organisms
The development of means of transportation is aimed at a reduction of the toxic emissions during operation of all kinds of motor vehicles
Summary
One of the factors stimulating the technology advancement in all the branches of industry is the necessity to restrict its negative impact on the natural environment. The applicable regulations related to the influence of the air transportation on the environment introduced by EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) contained in JAR 34 (Joint Aviation Requirements), FAR 34 (Fuel Venting and Exhaust Emission Requirements for Turbine Engine Powered Airplanes), mostly pertain to the emission of noise and toxic compounds, NOx in particular. They refer to jet engines and have stationary test procedures depending on the engine operating conditions. The emission of NOx in the upper parts of the atmosphere is disadvantageous as it fosters the greenhouse effect
