Abstract:
The vehicle test procedure provides a strict guidance regarding conditions of dynamometer tests and road load, gear shifting, total car weight, fuel quality, ambient temperature, and tire selection and pressure. Designed as a tool for testing vehicles fuel consumption and emission this tests are usually conducted on expensive and infrastructuraly demanding road dynamometers. This paper presents a method for conducting tests like NEDC or WLTC on an automated engine test bed equipped with high dynamic dynamometer in a manner which provides very similar testing environment. Particularly form the educational point of view, this approach, combining simple mathematical modelling, automated engine test bed and software testing and measurement environment like AVL Cameo, provides numerous possibilities in demonstrating engine operation in a virtual but, by performance, fully realised vehicle.
