Research on the driving characteristics of motor vehicles in high-altitude areas for the analysis of exhaust emission characteristics

Abstract

Research on the driving characteristics of motor vehicles at different altitudes in plateau regions and road emission intensity can provide technical support for energy conservation and emission reduction policies in plateau areas. This paper selects gasoline and diesel vehicles for on-board testing on typical road sections in plateau regions to study the overall driving characteristics of motor vehicles and the driving characteristics at different altitude intervals in plateau areas. The results show that with the increase in altitude, the driving conditions gradually concentrate towards ’high speed, low acceleration.’ The relevant conclusions can further study and analyze the distribution patterns of pollutants in motor vehicle exhaust emissions and road emission intensity.
