Presentation to support the proposal

Proposed changes per discussions during the 84th GRE session.

Proposal suggests that 2 new series of amendments are necessary: 83.08 to cover ISC for the WLTP Test and 83.09 to add ISC for the new UNR „RDE“ (which also has no ISC requirements) because Contracting Parties should be free to apply UNR 154 and UNR "RDE“, each with or without ISC without connection
A Contracting Party applying UNR 154 and UNR 83.08 but not UNR "RDE“ would be obliged to conduct or at least monitor RDE ISC in the absence of 83.09

This proposal aims at harmonizing the text of UN Regulation No. 83 and UN Regulation No. 101. Furthermore, one error was found in the formulas used for the calculation of a NEDC road load values from those determined according to UN GTR No. 15 (WLTP) and one wrong cross reference in the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 101.
1. Harmonization of UN Regulation No. 83 (Annex 4a, Appendix 7b, paragraph 1.) and UN Regulation No. 101 (Annex 7, Appendix 2, paragraph 1.); in Annex 7, Appendix 2, paragraph 1. Vehicles in general are not approved according to UN GTR No. 15, therefore the text phrase of UN R83 is recommended.
2. Correction of wrong reference to Annex 4 instead of Annex 7 of UN GTR No.15; in Annex 7, Appendix 2, paragraph 2.1.(b).
3. When copying the methodology from EU regulation, a ‘.’ was wrongly introduced instead of a ‘-‘ in the formula.

Proposal to amend Annex 7 – Appendix 2 paragraph 1., to provide the road load power calculation method that may be used

Proposal identifies 2 concerns:
“Coasting“ – Coasting is defined in GTR 15 and UNR 154 and must be deactivated for testing, may raise concerns for the approval of many hybrid vehicles and for conventional vehicles with modern start stop systems.
“Single roller dynamometer in 4WD operation“ – This combination is forbidden by GTR 15 and UNR 154 for the Type 1
test. There appears to be no reason for this ban (restraint systems must meet requirements for all configurations) other than an assumption that the configuration is not used for type 1 testing

Proposes a shortened Test Procedure NEDC for PEV and alternative for conformity of procedure.

The presentation supports the proposal for a Shortened Test Procedure NEDC for PEV acc. to WLTP (including adding PEV COP procedure alternative).

Proposes the modifications (essentially corrections of mistakes) are derived from the text of document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2021/7 from Japan, related to UN GTR 04, as modified by Informal Document GRPE- 82-09

Proposal makes changes to take into consideration the availability of gases for flame ionization detectors and the linearization of the gas analyzer.
UN R49 defines no linearity requirements for humidity sensors. As the humidity content of the intake air is an essential measure for the calculation of the specific exhaust emission, it is important to add requirement for humidity sensor (Reference: ISO 16183 the accuracy of the absolute humidity shall be +- 5%).

As the gas divider is a necessary tool to verify the linearization of the gas analyzer it is mandatory that the deviation of the gas divider is lower than that of the instrument under test. In combination with a calibration gas which has an accuracy of 1 % and a gas divider, which has an accuracy of 1 % it is only possible to reach a guaranteed analyzer accuracy of 2 %.

In the automotive industry Helium is used as so fuel gas for flame ionization detectors (FID) to measure Hydrocarbon emissions. In the FID fuel gas Helium is mixed with Hydrogen in a ratio of 40 % H2 and 60 % He. The annual fluctuations of the helium global market lead to an insufficient supply with FID fuel gas, like happened lately during summer 2018. In order to prevent the industry from the fluctuations of the global helium market, the US legislation reacted already in 2014 and allowed the usage of Nitrogen as batch gas for the FID fuel gas.

Proposes to amend the scope to clarify that UN R 49-06 series engine certification (corresponding to Euro VI) have no smoke and does not include the certification according to UN Regulation 24.

Compares terminology between M.R. 2 in comparison to UN GTR15

OICA comment on the IWG EVE proposal for GTR on in-vehicle battery durability

Proposal by the expert from OICA to clarify concerns about terms "coasting"and “Twin roller dynamometers in 4WD operation”

This document aims to:
• harmonize the KCO2 family concept from UN GTR15 Amendment 6 with this Regulation.
• harmonize the correction of CO2 results against target speed in Level 1A with Level 1B and the most stringent
Level 2.
• delete correction criterion c as it is no longer needed.
• propose a clarification and specification in the ATCT family criteria.

This document aims to clarify OBD monitoring requirements for combustion-ignition engines with regard to Level 1A and Level 1B. The modifications to the current text of the Regulation are marked in bold for new or strikethrough for deleted characters.

Proposes
• a technically neutral description for the measurement of crankcase pressure in Type III Test.
• the option to test a four-wheel vehicle without being forced to use an artificially created two-wheel drive
mode.

Definition and exemptions for special purpose vehicles are necessary. Possible amendments have been shown for
• New definitions in R.E.3 and
• Requirementemissiontothegreatestextent,
• ExemptionsfordriverinducementsystemandCOP/in-serviceconformity.

Aims to improve the clarity of the requirements regarding inclusion of vehicles in a road load family on the basis of the n/v ratios.

The proposed amendments are also available in a consolidated text with tracked changes in pdf format and in docx format.

Amendments to draft 02 and 03 series of amendments.

Proposal to correct the recursive formula of the 05, 06 and 07 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 83 in the procedure for verifying the conformity of production requirements if the production standard deviation given by the manufacturer is either not satisfactory or not available.

Proposal to clarify the scope of Regulation 85 concerning electric drivetrains.

Illustration to support proposals explained in document GRPE-85-13.

Proposal to correct the recursive formula in the procedure for verifying the conformity of production requirements if the production standard deviation given by the manufacturer is either not satisfactory or not available.

Proposal to harmonize:

• Requirements for the determination of CO2, fuel and electric energy consumption of the discharge requirement for OVC-HEV with an operating mode switch with its stop criterion.
• Preconditioning requirement (Annex 9, determination of electric range) and UN R83 (Annex 14, provisions for emissions test procedures for HEV).

The use of test fuels is permitted for certification testing of gaseous and particulate pollutants and power/smoke testing in Europe. However, other countries that have adopted and referenced UN R24 may not allow this. This proposal would permit the use of the same test fuel in cases where the testing for emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants is conducted at the same time as the testing under UN R24.

The use of test fuels is permitted for certification testing of gaseous and particulate pollutants and power/smoke testing in Europe. However, other countries that have adopted and referenced UN R85 may not allow this. This proposal would permit the use of the same test fuel in cases where the testing for emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants is conducted at the same time as the testing under UN R85.

Proposal to permit the use of hydrogen (H2) as fuel for type approval of heavy-duty vehicles.
