‘ANNEX Xa

Conformity of simulation tool operation and of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption related properties of components, separate technical units and systems: verification testing procedure

1. Introduction

This Annex sets out the requirements for the verification testing procedure which is the test procedure for verifying the CO2 emissions of new heavy-duty vehicles.

The verification testing procedure consists of an on-road test to verify the CO2 emissions of new vehicles after production. It shall be carried out by the vehicle manufacturer and verified by the approval authority that granted the licence to operate the simulation tool.

During the verification testing procedure the torque and speed at the driven wheels, the engine speed, the fuel consumption, the engaged gear of the vehicle and the other relevant parameters listed in point 6.1.6 shall be measured. The measured data shall be used as input to the simulation tool, which uses the vehicle-related input data and the input information from the determination of the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of the vehicle. For the verification testing procedure simulation, the instantaneously measured wheel torque and the rotational speed of the wheels as well as the engine speed shall be used as input, as described in Figure 1 instead of the vehicle speed, in accordance with point 6.1.6. The fan power during the verification testing procedure shall be calculated in accordance with the measured fan speed. The measured fuel consumption shall be within the tolerances set out in point 7 and compared to the fuel consumption simulated with the verification data set to pass the verification testing procedure.

As part of the verification testing procedure, the correctness of the vehicle input data set from the certification of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption related properties of the components, separate technical units and systems shall also be reviewed to check the data and the data handling process. The correctness of the input data relating to components, separate technical units and systems relevant for air drag and for rolling resistance of the vehicle shall be verified in accordance with point 6.1.1.

(b) The input data set out in Table 4.

The power calculated by the simulation tool by the equations of longitudinal dynamics from the measured vehicle speed and road gradient course may be used for plausibility checks to test if the total simulated cycle work is similar to the measured value.

The simulation tool shall calculate the gears engaged during the verification test by calculating the engine speeds per gear at the actual vehicle speed and selecting the gear that provides the engine speed closest to the measured engine speed.

The measured wheel power shall replace in the verification test mode of the simulation tool the simulated power demand at the wheels. The measured engine speed and the gear defined in the verification test input data shall replace the corresponding simulation part. The standard fan power in the simulation tool shall be replaced by the fan power calculated from the measured fan speed in the simulation tool as follows:

where:

Pfan = fan power to be used in the simulation for the verification test [kW] RPMfan = measured rotational speed of the fan [1/s] Dfan = diameter of the fan [m] C1, C2, C3 = generic parameters in the simulation tool: C1 = 7 320 W C2 = 1 200 rpm C3 = 810 mm

The steering pump, compressor and generator shall be attributed standard values in accordance with Annex IX.

All other simulation steps and data handling concerning axle, transmission and engine efficiency shall be identical to the application of the simulation tool to determine and declare the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of new vehicles.

The simulated fuel consumption value shall be the total fuel flow over the verification test relevant test distance, from the end of the zeroing after the warm up phase to the end of the test. The total verification test relevant test distance shall be calculated from the vehicle speed signal.

where:

VT work = Verification test work calculated by the simulation tool for the complete fuel consumption measurement phase [kWh] FCsim = Fuel consumption simulated by the simulation tool over the complete fuel consumption measurement phase [g/kWh] fs = Simulation rate [Hz] FCsim (t) = Instantaneous fuel consumption simulated by the simulation tool over the test [g/s]

7.2. Calculation of the measured fuel consumption

The measured fuel flow shall be integrated for the same time span as the simulated fuel consumption. The measured fuel consumption for the total test shall be calculated as follows:

where:

FCm = Fuel consumption measured by integrating fuel mass flow over the complete fuel consumption measurement phase [g/kWh] FCm (t) = Instantaneous fuel mass flow measured during the fuel consumption measurement phase [g/s] fs = Sampling rate [Hz] VT workm = Verification test work at the wheel calculated from the measured wheel torque and wheel rotational speeds over the complete fuel consumption measurement phase [kWh] Pwheel-i-measured,t = Positive power at the left (i = l) and right (i = 2) wheel calculated from the measured wheel torque and wheel rotational speeds at time step t where only power values greater zero are considered Torquei = instantaneously measured torque at the wheel “i” in time step “t” [Nm] rpmi = instantaneously measured rotational speed at the wheel “i” in time step “t” [min– 1]

The measured fuel consumption values shall be corrected for the net calorific value (NCV) as set out in point 3 of Annex V to calculate the verification test results.

where:

NCVmeas = NCV of the fuel used in the verification test determined in accordance with point 3.2 of Annex V [MJ/kg] NCVstd = Standard NCV in accordance with Table 4 of Annex V [MJ/kg] FCm,corr = Fuel consumption measured by integrating fuel mass over the complete fuel consumption measurement phase corrected for the test fuel NCV [g/kWh]

7.3. Pass/Fail check

The vehicle shall pass the verification test if the ratio of corrected measured fuel consumption to simulated fuel consumption is below the tolerances set out in Table 5.

In the case of a shorter run-in phase than 15 000 km the influence on the fuel efficiency of the vehicle may be corrected with the following evolution coefficient:

[g/kWh]

where:

FCm-c = Fuel consumption measured and corrected of a shorter run-in phase mileage = run-in distance [km] ef = Evolution coefficient of 0,98

For vehicle odometer reading above 15 000 km, no correction shall be applied.

The ratio of measured and simulated fuel consumption for the total verification test relevant trip shall be calculated as verification test ratio in accordance with the following equation:

Where:

CVTP = Ratio of fuel consumption measured and simulated in the verification testing procedure

For a comparison with the declared CO2 emissions of the vehicle in accordance with Article 9, the verified CO2 emissions of the vehicle are determined as follows:

where:

CO2verified = verified CO2 emissions of the vehicle in [g/t-km] CO2declared = declared CO2 emissions of the vehicle in [g/t-km]

If a first vehicle fails the tolerances for CVTP, two more tests may be performed on the same vehicle or two more similar vehicles may be tested on request of the vehicle manufacturer. For the evaluation of the pass criterion set out in Table 5, the averages of the verification testing procedure ratio from the up to three tests shall be used. If the pass criterion is not reached, the vehicle fails the verification testing procedure.
