BS ISO 8178-3:1994 : Implementation of ISO 8173:1994 Reciprocating internal combustion engines — Exhaust emission measurement — Part 3. Definitions and methods of measurement of exhaust gas smoke under steady state conditions

This part of ISO 8178 specifies two methods for the measurement of exhaust gas smoke characteristics of reciprocating internal combustion (RIC) engines operating under steady-state conditions. One method evaluates smoke opacity by measurement of the obscuration of a light beam; the other evaluates the soot content by measurement of the blackening of a filter. Where necessary, individual requirements may be specified for particular engine applications. This part of ISO 8178 does not deal with measurement under transient conditions; if smokemeters are used under transient conditions, the results from different types of instrument cannot be compared unless the sampling conditions are identical and the instrument characteristics are compatible. This part of ISO 8178 is applicable to RIC engines for land, rail-traction and marine use, including engines used to propel agricultural tractors and road vehicles. It may be applied to engines used to propel road-construction and earth-moving machines, industrial trucks, and for other applications where no suitable International Standards for exhaust gas smoke measurement of these engines exist.
