The evaporative emission test (Figure VI.1) is designed to determine hydrocarbon evaporative emissions as a consequence of diurnal temperatures fluctuation, hot soaks during parking, and urban driving. The test consists of these phases:
- test preparation including an urban (Part One) and extra-urban (Part Two) driving cycle,
- hot soak loss determination,
- diurnal loss determination.
Mass emissions of hydrocarbons from the hot soak and the diurnal loss phases are added up to provide an overall result for the test.
