To develop a forward energy-based fuel consumption model of a conventional vehicle using matlab and simulink

in a conventionalvehicle the power is generated by an internal combution engine that converts the chemical in fuel to mechanical energy.this mechanical energy reach the wheels througha drive train which contains the transmission ,differential components.efficiency of ic engine is ratio of workdone to the energy supplied to an engine.
