(a) Duty-cycle emissions.
This section describes the calculation of duty-cycle emissions, in terms of grams per brake horsepower hour (g/bhp-hr). The calculation involves the weighted summing of the product of the throttle notch mass emission rates and dividing by the weighted sum of the brake horsepower. The final reported duty-cycle emission test results are calculated as follows:

Example: For the line-haul cycle, for locomotives equipped with normal and low idle, and with dynamic brake, the brake-specific emission rate for HC would be calculated as:
Code of Federal Regulations
EHCdc=[(MHCla) (0.190) (MHC1) (0.190) (MHC2) (0.125) (MHC3) (0.065) (MHC4) (0.065) (MHC5) (0.052) (MHC6) (0.044) (MHC7) (0.038) (MHC8) (0.039) (MHC9) (0.030) (MHC10) (0.162)]/[(BHP1a) (0.190) (BHP1) (0.190) (BHP2) (0.125) (BHP3) (0.065) (BHP4) (0.065) (BHP5) (0.052) (BHP6) (0.044) (BHP7) (0.038) (BHP8) (0.039) (BHP9) (0.030) (BHP10) (0.162)]

In each mode, brake horsepower output is the power that the engine delivers as output (normally at the flywheel), as defined in § 92.2.
(i)
For locomotive testing (or engine testing using a locomotive alternator/generator instead of a dynamometer), brake horsepower is calculated as:
Code of Federal Regulations
BHP=HPout/Aeff HPacc
(ii)
For engine dynamometer testing, brake horsepower is determined from the engine speed and torque.
(4)
For locomotive equipped with features that shut the engine off after prolonged periods of idle, the measured mass emission rate Mi1 (and Mi1a as applicable) shall be multiplied by a factor equal to one minus the estimated fraction reduction in idling time that will result in use from the shutdown feature. Application of this adjustment is subject to the Administrator's approval.
(b) Throttle notch emissions.
This paragraph (b) describes the calculation of throttle notch emissions for all operating modes, including: idle (normal and low, as applicable); dynamic brake; and traction power points. The throttle notch (operating mode) emission test results, final reported values and values used in paragraph (a)(1) of this section are calculated as follows:
(1)
Brake specific emissions (Eij) in grams per brake horsepower-hour of each species i (i.e., HC, CO, NOX or PM and, if appropriate, THCE or NMHC) for each mode j:
(i)
EHC mode =HC grams/BHP-hr=MHC mode /Measured BHP in mode.
(ii)
ETHCE mode =THCE grams/BHP-hr=MTHCE mode /Measured BHP in mode.
(iii)
ENMHC mode =NMHC grams/BHP-hr=MNMHC mode /Measured BHP in mode.
(iv)
ECO mode =CO grams/BHP-hr=MCO mode /Measured BHP in mode.
(v)
ENOx mode =NOX grams/BHP-hr=MNOx mode /Measured BHP in mode.
(vi)
EPM mode =PM grams/BHP-hr=MPM mode /Measured BHP in mode.
(vii)
EAL mode =Aldehydes grams/BHP-hr=MAL mode /Measured BHP in mode.
(vii)
EAL mode =Aldehydes grams/BHP-hr=MAL mode /Measured BHP in mode.
(2)
Mass Emissions—Raw exhaust measurements. For raw exhaust measurements mass emissions (grams per hour) of each species for each mode:
(i)
General equations. (A) The mass emission rate, MX mode (g/hr), of each pollutant (HC, NOX. CO2, CO, CH4 CH3 OH, CH3 CH2 OH, CH2 O, CH3 CH2 O) for each operating mode for raw measurements is determined based on one of the following equations:
Code of Federal Regulations
MX mode=(DX/106)(DVol)(MWX/Vm)
Code of Federal Regulations
MX mode=(WX/106)(WVol)(MWX/Vm)
(B)
All measured volumes and volumetric flow rates must be corrected to standard temperature and pressure prior to calculations.
(ii)
The following abbreviations and equations apply to this paragraph (b)(2):
(iii)
Calculation of individual pollutant masses. Calculations for mass emission are shown here in multiple forms. One set of equations is used when sample is analyzed dry (equations where the concentrations are expressed as DX), and the other set is used when the sample is analyzed wet (equations where the concentrations are expressed as WX). When samples are analyzed for some constituents dry and for some constituents wet, the wet concentrations must be converted to dry concentrations, and the equations for dry concentrations used. Also, the equations for HC, NMHC, CO, and NOX have multiple forms that are algebraically equivalent: An explicit form that requires intermediate calculation of Vm and DVol or WVol; and an implicit form that uses only the concentrations (e.g., DCO) and the mass flow rate of the fuel. For these calculations, either form may be used.

Conversion of wet concentrations to dry concentrations. Wet concentrations are converted to dry concentrations using the following equation:
Code of Federal Regulations
DX=KW WX
(A)
Iterative calculation of conversion factor. The conversion factor KW is calculated from the fractional volume of water in the exhaust on a dry basis (DH2O=volume of water in exhaust/dry volume of exhaust). Precise calculation of the conversion factor KW must be done by iteration, since it requires the dry concentration of HC, but HC emissions are measured wet.
(1) The conversion factor is calculated by first assuming DHC=WHC to calculate DVol:
Code of Federal Regulations
DVol=(Vm)(Wf)/((CMWf)(DHC/106 DCO/106 DCO2/100))
(2) This estimate is then used in the following equations to calculate DVolair, then DH2O, then KW, which allows DHC to be determined more accurately from WHC:

(3) The calculations are repeated using this estimate of DHC. If the new estimate for KW is not within one percent of the previous estimate, the iteration is repeated until the difference in KW between iterations is less than one percent.
