Abstract:An investigation of the concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) within the passenger compartment of motor vehicles has been made. A sample handling system has been developed to measure the concentrations of CO at as many as six locations inside and outside of a motor vehicle. To use this system effectively, a test procedure was developed with sixteen possible configurations of window, vent, and trunk lid openings. The sample system and test procedures were used on six different vehicles which represented several aerodynamic shapes and utilized different design features and auxiliary equipment. Data obtained in situations of low traffic density are presented.
