Abstract

The particulate emissions of a diesel passenger car running on 13 fuels (including a reference one), featuring major differences in aromatic content and minor differences in specific energy were measured, following the legislated procedure (New European Driving Cycle after a cold start). The tests included PM mass measurements, volatile and non-volatile PM split and particle number and size distribution over the NEDC, using an Electrical Low Pressure Impactor (ELPI). The paper presents the results of the measurements and discusses the effects of fuel properties on the physical and chemical character of the content of the fuel, the size distribution of particulates being also affected.
