The Vehicle Exhaust Emissions Simulator was developed to evaluate the performance of vehicle emissions sampling and analytical systems. The simulator produces a representative tailpipe volume flow rate containing up to five emission constituents, injected via mass flow controllers (MFCs). Eliminating the variability of test results associated with the vehicle, driver, and dynamometer makes the simulator an ideal quality control tool for use in commissioning new test cells, checking data correlation between test cells, and evaluating overall system performance. Earlier vehicle emissions simulators being used in the industry were primarily for checking Constant Volume Samplers (CVSs) and Bag Benches but they did not have the ability to properly simulate tailpipe volume.
