Volvo Trucks has launched a tailor-made engine for the strict Euro 6 emission standards. Its nitrogen oxides and solid particulate emissions have dropped by 77% and 50%, respectively. Volvo Trucks will be the first to introduce the D13460 Mario VI engine. Now, one-third of the company's trucks are equipped with D13460 hp engines. "The Volvo FH truck will be equipped with Euro 6 engines for 460 hp, making trucks achieve faster speeds and lower fuel consumption in good road conditions," said Mats Franzen, Volvo Truck Engine Strategy and Planning Manager. Trucks equipped with new engines will be delivered in spring 2013." D13 Euro-6_1 The current demand for Euro 6 trucks by truck users is still at a moderate level. Although the Euro 6 emission vehicles can be certified according to the new regulations starting from February 2012, it will take two years to enforce the regulations. Strict emission standards require advanced engine solutions, including a large number of new parts, which means that the cost of users will increase. However, it is possible to offset some of the increased costs by adopting various financial measures or participating in incentive car purchase packages. The above situation refers to the operation of transportation and long-distance transportation for the European region. D13 Euro-6_2 “It is still difficult to determine what the demand will be. By making our most popular engine models meet Euro 6 emissions standards, we will be able to meet the needs of most of our customers. Other models of Euro 6 engines will be available on January 1, 2014. All the six European standards were introduced prior to enforcement," added Metz François. Proven Technology This Volvo D13 Euro 6 engine is built on the proven Euro 5 engine technology. The new inline six-cylinder Euro 6 engine uses single fuel injectors and selective catalytic reduction (SCR). Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and diesel particulate filters (DPF) will also be fitted to meet new emission requirements. Volvo Trucks has used DPF in the United States and Japan for several years. Compared with Euro 5, the emission of nitrogen oxides from Euro 6 engines is reduced by 77% and the emissions of solid particulates are halved. Focus on fuel economy and reliability Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) promotes the conversion of nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas to harmless nitrogen and water vapor. It works in conjunction with a solid particle filter installed in a compact space. Solid particle filters will catch tiny particles during work and ignite them for reuse. When the engine does not have enough heat to heat the exhaust gas, EGR is mainly used to increase the exhaust gas temperature. SCR requires the best operating efficiency when the ambient temperature reaches at least 250°C. The traditional EGR cools the exhaust gas to reduce the engine temperature and thus reduces the nitrogen oxide emissions. The Euro 6 engine EGR will not perform exhaust gas recirculation in the highway cruise mode, so it will not increase fuel consumption under such operating conditions. "We have developed a reliable solution that not only meets emission requirements, but also enables users to benefit from good fuel economy and low failure rates," said Metz François. Volvo D13460 Euro 6 Engine Introduction 460 hp inline six-cylinder 13-liter engine. The maximum output power is 1400 to 1900 revolutions per minute: 338 kilowatts. The maximum torque is 1000 to 1400 revolutions per minute: 2300 Nm. Volvo I-Shift automatic transmission. The engine brake VEB+ system reaches 2300 revolutions per minute: 375 kilowatts. The current Volvo FH4x2/6x2 trailers and fronts are equipped with Euro VI, including hazardous transport vehicles that are compliant with ADR. Both left and right driving trucks are suitable. Euro six standard introduction Nitrogen oxide emissions are one-fifth that of Euro 5 engines. Solid particle emissions are half that of Euro 5 engines. Must comply with emission regulations at a minimum ambient temperature of -7°C. Emission regulations include nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (diameter), particulates (quantity), ammonia (NH3), nitric oxide (CO), and hydrocarbons (HC).
