- Summary:
- The Institute for Internal Combustion Engines and Thermodynamicsof the Technical University, Graz, has developed a method whereby adigitalized speed curve may be evaluated in terms of fuelconsumption and emission of HC, CO and NO\dx using a computerprogram. The entire curve is divided into time elements which arecharacterized by speed and acceleration. Road gradients can beconsidered using the equivalent accelerations. The consumption andemission values needed for calculation were determined bymeasurements made on a certain number of vehicles on the teststand.The method was developed primarily for judging road networks. Itmay also be used to compare various test cycles mathematically
