Abstract
Content
Vehicle systems utilizing a stratified charge engine have been evaluated for their emission potential. They have shown the ability to meet the 2.0 gm/mi NOx emission standard without EGR at low mileage, but require some form of aftertreatment device to simultaneously achieve emission levels of 0.41 gm/mi HC and 3.4 gm/mi CO. The system hardware required in conjunction with the stratified charge engine is described.
