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. 22 Issue-II, Rev- 1, July 2020APPENDIX -I 1.

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.

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.

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.
