Influence of Decarbonization on Selected Parameters of ICE.

The paper focuses on the area of experimental measurements for monitoring the impact of decarbonization on the technical and environmental parameters of the ICE. The condition for the implementation of the measurements was the selection of an ICE that had driven more than 300,790 km. During the laboratory tests, several test methods were used to assess the technical and emission conditions of the tested ICE with the code designation ALH, which is used in VOLKSWAGEN BORA vehicles. The technical parameters of the tested ICE (corrected power PNorm and torque MMom), emission parameters (absorption coefficient k and NOx emission) and fuel consumption parameters (specific fuel consumption bsfc) were compared and evaluated in the results. The results show that the decarbonization process on the tested vehicle VOLKSVWAGEN BORA 1.9 TDi affected the emission parameters but did not affect the technical parameters and specific fuel consumption.
