Condensation Dripping Water Detection and Its Control Method from Exhaust Pipe of Gasohol Vehicle under Low Environmental Temperature Conditions : A Case Study in Harbin, China

الملخص EN

Gasohol is one of renewable clean alternative energies, which is widely used around the world.

Gasohol had been raised to be used in 9 provinces of China since 2001.

However, its closed use was merely promoted in Heilongjiang province since November 1, 2004.

Moreover, this issue aroused extensive discussions and controversies.

One of them is the condensation dripping water issue from exhaust pipe in cold winter.

Does the ethanol cause the road freezing in cold winter? To deal with this issue, taking the Harbin city as a case study, this work designs detection experiments of the condensation dripping water from exhaust pipe.

Moreover, the amount of the condensation dripping water from exhaust pipe for gasohol and gasoline vehicles with the same working condition is obtained and measured, and their results are compared and analyzed.

Simultaneously, the method of reducing the condensation dripping water is proposed.

The results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
