1INTRODUCTION
Rule 49 of the Aircraft Rules, 1937 stipulates requirements for a Type Certificate (TC)
in respect of a new type of aeronautical products such as aircraft, engine and propeller
or change in type design in case of its derived version, designed and manufactured in
India. The Type Certificate Data Sheet (TCDS), which forms the part of the Type
Certificate, contains the certification basis in respect of that aircraft and the applicable
certification basis as mentioned in CAR 21.17 and environmental protection
requirements as mentioned in CAR 21.18. With the objective of compliance with the
above mentioned rules, CAR, Section-6, Series-C, Part-II has been developed based
on the International Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) contained in
ICAO Annex-16, Volume-II.
This CAR is issued under the provisions of Rule 133A of the Aircraft Rules, 1937, for
information, guidance and compliance by all such organizations who intend to design
and develop aeronautical products including Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) in India for
which a Type Certificate is to be issued by DGCA under the provisions mentioned in
CAR 21
The requirements contained in this CAR are in-line with the requirements as mentioned
in ICAO Annex-16, Volume-II. It prescribes applicability, measurement of reference
pressure ratio, smoke emission evaluation, measurement points, Instrumentation and
measurement techniques for gaseous emissions, specification for HC analyser, CO and
CO analysers, NOx analyser, calibration and test gases, calculation of the emissions
2
parameters, specifications for additional data, specification for fuel to be used in aircraft
turbine engine emission testing, Instrumentation and measurement techniques for
gaseous emissions from afterburning gas turbine engines, and compliance procedure
for gaseous emissions and smoke along with relevant calculations for different category
of engines fitted on aeroplanes for demonstrating compliance to the above
requirements.
This CAR supersedes earlier issued CAR, Issue-II, Revision-0 November, 2017.

Issue-II, Rev- 1, July 2020SUBPART β F: NON-VOLATILE PARTICULATE MATTER
ASSESSMENT FOR INVENTORY PURPOSES
1. The purpose of this subpart is to provide Standards and Recommended
Practices guidance on how to calculate the nvPM mass and number correction
factors for the nvPM system losses other than the Collection Part thermophoretic
losses. The nvPM sampling and measurement system, the Collection Part and
the thermophoretic losses calculation are described in Appendix 7 of ICAO
Annex-16, Volume-II.
2. The nvPM mass and number system loss correction factors permit an estimation
of the concentration of the nvPM mass and number at the exhaust of the aircraft
engine from the nvPM mass and number concentration obtained following the
procedures described in Appendix 7 of ICAO Annex-16, Volume-II.
3. For engines of a type or model subject to Part III, Chapter 4, and for which the
date of manufacture of the individual engine was on or after 1 January 2023, the
nvPM mass and nvPM number system loss correction factors (kSL and
mass
kSL ), and EI and EI corrected for system losses shall be reported to
num mass num
DGCA or competent authority as designated by the State in accordance with the
procedures of Appendix 8 of ICAO Annex-16, Volume-II, or equivalent
procedures as agreed by DGCA.
4. For inventory and modelling purposes, the turbine engine manufacturers should
determine the nvPM mass and nvPM number system loss correction factors
(k and k ) using the methodology described in Appendix 8 of ICAO
SLmass SLnum
Annex-16, Volume-II and should report these factors to DGCA.
5. For inventory and modelling purposes, the nvPM mass and nvPM number
concentration emissions obtained following the procedures described in
Appendix 7 of ICAO Annex-16, Volume-II should be corrected for system losses
using the methodology described in Appendix 8 of ICAO Annex-16, Volume-II.

Issue-II, Rev- 1, July 2020APPENDIX -I
1. Afterburning: A mode of engine operation wherein a combustion system fed (in
whole or part) by vitiated/exhaust air is used.
2. Approach phase: The operating phase defined by the time during which the
engine is operated in the approach operating mode.
3. Climb phase: The operating phase defined by the time during which the engine
is operated in the climb operating mode.
4. Date of manufacture: The date of issue of the document attesting that the
individual aircraft or engine as appropriate conforms to the requirements of the
type or the date of an analogous document.
5. Derivative version: An aircraft gas turbine engine of the same generic family as
an originally type-certificated engine and having features which retain the basic
core engine and combustor design of the original model and for which other
factors, as judged by the certificating authority, have not changed.
6. Exhaust nozzle: In the exhaust emissions sampling of gas turbine engines
where the jet effluxes are not mixed (as in some turbofan engines for example)
the nozzle considered is that for the gas generator (core) flow only. Where,
however, the jet efflux is mixed the nozzle considered is the total exit nozzle.
7. Gas concentration: The volume fraction of the component of interest in the gas
mixture β expressed as volume percentage or as parts per million.
8. Non-Volatile Particulate Matter (nvPM): Emitted particles that exists at gas
turbine engine exhaust nozzele exit plane that do not volatilise when heated to a
temperature of 350 Β°C.
9. Oxides of nitrogen: The sum of the amounts of the nitric oxide and nitrogen
dioxide contained in a gas sample calculated as if the nitric oxide were in the
form of nitrogen dioxide.
10. Parts per million (ppm): The unit volume gas concentration of a gas per million
unit volume of the gas mixture of which it is a part.
11. Parts per million carbon (ppmC): The mole fraction of hydrocarbon multiplied
by 106 measured on a methane-equivalence basis. Thus, 1 ppm of methane is
indicated as 1 ppmC. To convert ppm concentration of any hydrocarbon to an
equivalent ppmC value, multiply ppm gas concentration by the number of carbon
atoms per molecule of the gas. For example, 1 ppm propane translates as 3
ppmC hydrocarbon; 1 ppm hexane as 6 ppmC hydrocarbon.
12. Rated thrust: For engine emissions purposes, the maximum take-off thrust
approved by the certificating authority for use under normal operating conditions
at ISA sea level static conditions, and without the use of water injection. Thrust
is expressed in kilo-newton.
23
Issue-II, Rev- 1, July 202013. Reference gas: A mixture of gases of specified and known composition used as
the basis for interpreting instrument response in terms of the gas concentration
of the gas to which the instrument is responding.
14. Reference pressure ratio: The ratio of the mean total pressure at the last
compressor discharge plane of the compressor to the mean total pressure at the
compressor entry plane when the engine is developing take-off thrust rating in
ISA sea level static conditions.
15. Response: The change in instrument output signal that occurs with change in
sample gas concentration.
16. Type Certificate: A document issued by a Contracting State to define the design
of an aircraft, engine or propeller type and to certify that this design meets the
appropriate airworthiness requirements of that State.
17. Smoke: The carbonaceous materials in exhaust emissions which obscure the
transmission of light.
18. Smoke Number: The dimensionless term quantifying smoke emissions.
19. State of Design: The State having jurisdiction over the organization responsible

20. Take-off phase: The operating phase defined by the time during which the
engine is operated at the rated thrust.
21. Taxi/ground idle: The operating phases involving taxi and idle between the
initial starting of the propulsion engine(s) and the initiation of the take-off roll and
between the time of runway turn-off and final shutdown of all propulsion
engine(s).
22. Unburned hydrocarbons: The total of hydrocarbon compounds of all classes
and molecular weights contained in a gas sample, calculated as if they were in
the form of methane.
