    Abstract:
    Natural gas has been widely considered as an alternative fuel to diesel on heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs). To evaluate the real-world emissions, 19 diesel HDVs, 3 CNG HDVs and 9 LNG HDVs were tested using portable emission measurement system on urban, suburban and freeway roads . The results show that average emission rates of CO, HC and NOx from diesel, CNG and LNG HDVs tend to rise with the increasing of VSP. Due to different emission control strategies and complicated driving cycle, NOx reduction rates of real-world emission factors are lower than those of the corresponding limits from China II to China V diesel HDVs. CO and NOx emission factors from all tested HDVs on urban road are generally higher than those on suburban road in the same velocity intervals, which means driving behaviors on different road types have great influence on emission factors in the same velocity intervals. NOx emission factors from LNG HDVs are higher than those from diesel HDVs, indicating that using China V LNG HDVs instead of China V diesel HDVs could not be an ideal alternative for freeway transportation. As CO and NOx comprehensive emission factors from China V CNG HDVs are higher than those from China V diesel, even higher than China IV diesel HDVs, China V CNG HDVs are unable to be considered as cleaner vehicles when compared to China V diesel HDVs in the study. It is noticeable that HC emission factors from CNG and LNG HDVs are extremely higher compare with diesel HDVS. NO2 emission factors from LNG HDVs are 2.14-9.19 and 4.74-8.53 times than those from diesel and CNG HDVs with various road types. Our study can provide development road map for different fuel types of HDVs and the reference for new emission legislation of HDVs.
