VEHICLE COAST-DOWN METHOD AS A TOOL FOR CALCULATING TOTAL RESISTANCE FOR THE PURPOSES OF TYPE-APPROVAL FUEL CONSUMPTION

VEHICLE COAST-DOWN METHOD AS A TOOL FOR CALCULATING TOTAL RESISTANCE FOR THE PURPOSES OF TYPE-APPROVAL FUEL CONSUMPTION

A coast-down test is carried out in cases when there is a need for the exact expression of the forces acting on a road vehicle during its coast-down. These forces act mainly against the vehicle’s movement due to air and tyre rolling resistance. Knowledge of the course of these forces throughout the...
