Title
Measuring of exhaust gas emissions using absorption spectroscopy
Abstract
This paper describes an optical fibre sensor for the detectionof NOx (NO2 and NO) and CO2 in theexhaust system of a road vehicle. The measurement is based on afree path interaction zone which is interrogated using UV and NIRlight guiding optical fibres and collimated lenses. Results arepresented in the absorption spectra of the gases in the UV regionfor the NOx gases and NIR region for CO2.These demonstrate that using this method it is feasible to identifythe individual CO2, NO and NO2 species aswell as other gases in the exhaust system. Measurement ofconcentrations to the level of ten's parts per million (ppm) havebeen demonstrated for the NOxx gases.
