This SAE Recommended Practice is applicable to all types of reciprocating engines including two-stroke cycle and free piston engines, and was prepared to facilitate clear understanding and promote uniformity in nomenclature. Modifying adjectives in some cases were omitted for simplicity. However, it is good practice to use adjectives when they add to clarity and understanding.

To measure the performance characteristics of Continuously Variable Transmissions (CVT). It outlines dynamometer tests that cover the range of operation and provides a method of presenting the test data. This procedure must be followed with similar test facilities so that results obtained from different laboratories are comparable.

The method presented is the current recommendation for the use of flame ionization detectors to determine the hydrocarbon content of diesel engine exhaust, or exhaust of vehicles using diesel engines, when operating at steady-state. The requirements of the associated sampling system and a general procedure for a continuous measuring method are presented.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes equipment and test procedures for determining the performance of spark arrester exhaust systems of multiposition small engines (<19 kW) used in portable applications, including hand-held, hand-guided, and backpack mounted devices. It is not applicable to spark arresters used in vehicles or stationary equipment.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes uniform laboratory techniques for the continuous and grab sample measurement of various constituents in the exhaust gas of the gasoline engines installed in passenger cars and light trucks. The report concentrates on the measurement of the following components in exhaust gas: hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and oxygen (O2). This recommended practice includes the following sections: 1. Introduction 2. Definitions and Terminology 3. Sampling and Instrumentation 4. Associated Test Equipment 5. Test Procedures Appendix—Other Measurement Technology

The detailed recommendations have been limited to four metering systems and the associated equipment required to measure diesel engine gas flows at steady-state operating conditions. Accuracy goals are established, and the procedures and equipment are proposed as required to obtain desired measurement accuracy.

This procedure establishes recommendations on the measurement of diesel engine intake air flow under steady-state test conditions. The measurement methods discussed have been limited to metering systems and associated equipment found in common usage in the industry, specifically, nozzles, laminar flow devices, and vortex shedding. The procedure establishes accuracy goals as well as explains proper usage of equipment. The recommendations concerning diesel engine exhaust mass flow measurements are minimal in scope.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes uniform laboratory techniques for the continuous and bag-sample measurement of various constituents in the exhaust gas of the gasoline engines installed in passenger cars and light-duty trucks. The report concentrates on the measurement of the following components in exhaust gas: hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), oxygen (O2), and nitrogen oxides (NOx). NOx is the sum of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). A complete procedure for testing vehicles may be found in SAE J1094. This document includes the following sections: 1. Scope 2. References 3. Emissions Sampling Systems 4. Emissions Analyzers 5. Data Analysis 6. Associated Test Equipment 7. Test Procedures

The recommended practice applies to the dynamometer test procedure which can be used to assess the smoke emission characteristics of vehicular diesel engines. In particular, these procedures describe the smoke emissions test, smoke test cycle, equipment and instrumentation, instrument checks, and chart reading and calculation, for evaluation of an engine’s steady-state and transient smoke emission characteristics. A full-flow smoke opacimeter as opposed to other types of smokemeters is required because the test is designed to monitor transient smoke. Sampling type instruments have an excessive and variable delay and do not provide an accurate measurement of the engine’s transient smoke output. An Appendix shows that the Beer-Lambert law can be used to correlate opacity measurements with different meter path lengths. Additional or modified test conditions may be requested when this recommended practice is cited in a request for a smoke assessment.

The recommended practice applies to the dynamometer test procedure which can be used to assess the smoke emission characteristics of vehicular diesel engines. In particular, this procedure describes the smoke test cycle, equipment and instrumentation, instrument checks, chart reading and calculation for evaluation of an engine’s transient smoke emission characteristic. In addition, this procedure offers guidelines to be used in establishing correlation between full flow in-line and end-of-line opacimeters. Since the type of test described here is transient in nature, a fast responding full flow opacimeter is required for the smoke measurements. Slow responding or sampling, or both, type instruments must not be used since they typically have excessive and variable response delays and do not provide an accurate measurement of an engine’s transient smoke characteristics.
