Clean Air Vehicle Facility

The Facility focuses on methods to reduce automotive pollutant emissions. The laboratory houses a 50-hp, single-axle chassis dynamometer, a 1000-hp engine dynamometer with fully-computerized instrumentation. The laboratory’s emission sampling and analysis systems permit accurate determination of CO, CO2, Ox, NOx, total hydrocarbons, and methane and non-methane hydrocarbons in raw or constant-volume sampled exhaust.
