Project 1

1) UDDS cycle :

  • Tabulate the fuel economy numbers (kmpl) for UDDS and HWFET cycle. This forms the baseline numbers for comparing with the future hybrid version.
  • Plot the time trace for engine, transmission input, transmission output and wheel speed on one plot
  • Plot accelerator and brake pedal, gear command, vehicle desired and actual speed, vehicle distance using subplots.
  • Plot engine torque, engine power, fuel rate and fuel consumption using subplots.
  • Plot the engine operating points on the engine fuel map

2) HWFET cycle:

  • Tabulate the fuel economy numbers (kmpl) for UDDS and HWFET cycle. This forms the baseline numbers for comparing with the future hybrid version.
  • Plot the time trace for engine, transmission input, transmission output and wheel speed on one plot.
  • Plot accelerator and brake pedal, gear command, vehicle desired and actual speed, vehicle distance using subplots.
  • Plot engine torque, engine power, fuel rate and fuel consumption using subplots.
  • Plot the engine operating points on the engine fuel map

Comments:

The fuel economy is more for HWFET than UDDS.

Most of the engine operating points lie within a range of 2000 rpm in hwfet drive cycle and which is over the 3000rpm in UDDS. This results in less energy consumption in HWFET cycle.
