Full title and description

GOST 24028-2013 — Двигатели внутреннего сгорания поршневые. Дымность отработавших газов. Нормы и методы определения (English title: Internal combustion reciprocating engines — Visible pollutants. Limit values and test methods). This межгосударственный стандарт устанавливает нормы дымности и методики её измерения для поршневых судовых, тепловозных и промышленных двигателей при стендовых испытаниях.

Abstract

Standard GOST 24028-2013 specifies limit values (norms) of exhaust smoke opacity and the accepted test methods for determining smoke from reciprocating internal combustion engines. It covers measurement procedures using optical (opacity) and filtration-type smoke meters, sampling arrangements, instrumentation requirements and test regimes for new and overhauled marine, locomotive and industrial diesel engines during bench tests.

• Edition / version: GOST 24028-2013 (first introduction / 2013 designation, in force from 2014).
• Number of pages: Typically published as a short standard (vendor listings show ~16 pages; some printed editions catalog as ~11 pages depending on pagination).

Scope

The standard applies to reciprocating internal combustion engines used in marine (ship), locomotive (rail) and industrial applications and establishes procedures for measuring and reporting visible pollutants (smoke opacity) from exhaust gases during bench testing of new and majorly overhauled engines. It specifies both optical (opacity) and filtration (smoke deposit) measurement methods, sampling-system requirements and test-mode conditions for determining compliance with smoke limits.

Key topics and requirements

• Normative smoke (opacity) limit values for bench tests of marine, locomotive and industrial reciprocating engines.
• Measurement methods: optical (opacity) smoke meters and filtration-type smoke meters, including calibration and scale requirements.
• Sampling-system specifications: probe diameters, gas-line lengths, temperature control, “dead” volume limits and probe placement rules.
• Instrument performance requirements: optical sources/receivers, spectral sensitivity, measurement base length and allowed measurement uncertainty.
• Procedures for reporting results, test regimes (engine modes) and conditions under which measurements are valid for certification or comparison.
• Alignment and references to relevant international measurement standards (e.g., ISO 8178 series for engine emission measurement and related test practices).

Typical use and users

Primary users are engine manufacturers, test laboratories, shipbuilders, locomotive builders and operators, plant engineers and regulatory bodies responsible for certifying engine emissions or verifying compliance at factory/acceptance bench tests. The standard is used to set acceptance criteria at production/overhaul tests and to ensure comparability of smoke-measurement results between labs.

Related standards

GOST 24028-2013 is used alongside other engine-emissions standards such as GOST 31967-2012 (emissions of harmful substances — limits and test methods) and more recent/intersecting standards for rolling stock emissions such as GOST 33754-2016. It also references or aligns with parts of the ISO 8178 series (measurement of gaseous and particulate exhaust emissions and smoke measurement methods).
