Abstract A reactor-equipped vehicle was tested for assessment of the emissions control of the NASA automotive thermal reactor technology program. The NASA reactor was tested on a 1971 Ford pickup equipped with a 302 CID engine and automatic transmission. The reactor was evaluated in two configurations: with and without flame holders. Testing at two different idle mixture settings in each configuration was also accomplished. Emission testing was done using hot start 1972 FTP and cold start 1975 FTP. Test results indicate that none of the tests approach 1975 or 1976 required levels. Results indicate the following shortcomings for the reactor: reactor warm-up time must be shortened; control of CO is minimal; the use of flame holders appears to be of little benefit in this design.
