Abstract
The aim of this study was to fulfill the NOx emissions standards for a light-duty diesel vehicle under real driving emissions (RDE) testing conditions by implementing various control strategies. In this study, RDE tests were performed by adjusting the air mass quantity and postinjection quantity in order to analyze engine-out and tail-pipe nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions for different phases of RDE. The results showed that reducing in air mass quantity enabled the engine to operate in higher exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rate regions, resulting in a 32.5% reduction in engine-out NOx emissions and an 80.4% decrease in tail-pipe NOx emissions. Increasing the postinjection quantity primarily enhanced the NOx conversion efficiency for the urban phase by 7.5%, leading to a 22.6% reduction in tail-pipe NOx emissions. By employing both strategies, vehicles can comfortably meet the CN6b emission regulations by a substantial margin.
