Periodic regeneration is required to clean the diesel particulate filter (DPF) of heavy-duty diesel vehicle. In this study we analyze real-time particulate matter (PM) mass, particle number, and black carbon emissions during steady state driving active and passive diesel particulate filter (DPF) regenerations on a heavy-duty chassis dynamometer. Regeneration PM emissions were dominated by particles with count median diameter<100nm, with the majority <50nm. Results indicate that vehicle activity during DPF loading significantly affects regeneration particulate emissions. Average PM emission rates (gPM/h) from the 2010 MY vehicle were higher than the 2007 MY vehicle during all regeneration conditions in this study. Sequential forced-active regenerations resulted in reduced particulate mass emissions, but not in reduced particle number emissions, suggesting incomplete stored PM removal or effects of after-treatment fuel injection. Black carbon emission factors (EFBC) were 3.4 and 21 times larger during driving-active regeneration than during a 50 mph steady state cruise with a recently regenerated DPF for the 2007 and 2010 MY vehicle, respectively. Real-time PM emissions rates were lower during passive regeneration of the 2010 MY DPF, suggesting more modern passive regeneration technologies reduce total on-road particulate and ultrafine particulate emissions.
