India comments on document EPPR-13-09 “Final proposal for EPPR informal group draft GTR on motorcycle crankcase and evaporative emissions”.

Catalog of documents submitted to the EPPR informal group, including classification by test cycle and highlighting in red of documents currently under discussion.

Proposal to clarify the scope of the test procedures with regard to the different engine family classes, especially with regard to Class B vehicles.

Updated proposal, including corrections to the formal document GRPE/2016/2 submitted to the Working Party on Pollution and Energy for its January session, for a new global technical regulation.

The current draft GTR on motorcycle evaporative emissions includes seven options for the test fuel; however, the list does not include the fuel specified under US and Canadian requirements. Therefore, the US and Canada request the addition of a new option corresponding to the fuel specifications laid out in the United States Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 1051, section 501 (40 CFR 1051.501).

Updated version of the draft GTR on motorcycle emissions OBD prepared for the EPPR informal group by the European Commission.

In 2011 a particle number (PN) limit was introduced in the European Union’s vehicle exhaust legislation for diesel passenger cars. The PN method requires measurement of solid particles (i.e. those that do not evaporate at 350 °C) with diameters above 23 nm. In 2013 the same approach was introduced for heavy duty engines and in 2014 for gasoline direct injection vehicles. This decision was based on a long evaluation that concluded that there is no significant sub-23 nm fraction for these technologies. This SAE paper (2015-24-2512) examines the suitability of this PN method for L-category vehicles (two- or three-wheel vehicles and quadri-cycles).
