After creating the model,the results can be obtained by running the processing file script.

The processing script is given below-

%% Renaming variables

Acc_Pdl = out.Acc_Pdl; % Accelerator pedal [%]
Brk_Pdl = out.Brk_Pdl; % Brake pedal [%]
Gear = out.Gear; % Transmission gear

Trans_Out_Spd = out.Trans_Out_Spd*30/pi;% Transmission output speed [rpm]
Eng_Trq = out.Eng_Trq; % Engine brake torque [Nm]
Eng_Spd = out.Eng_Spd*30/pi; % Engine speed [rpm]
Eng_Fuel_Consump = out.Eng_Fuel_Consumption; % Engine fuel consumption [g]
Eng_fuelrate = out.Eng_Fuel_Rate;
Veh_Dist = out.Veh_Dist/1000; % Distance traveled by vehicle [km]
Veh_Spd = out.Veh_Spd*18/5; % Vehicle speed [kmph]
wheel_spd = out.WheelSpd;
Eng_Fuel_Rate = out.Eng_Fuel_Rate; % Engine fuel rate [%]

%% Data Analysis
Eng_Pwr = Eng_Spd.*pi/30.*Eng_Trq/1000; % Engine brake power [kW]
rho_petrol = 0.7197; % Density of petrol [kg/L]
