Book excerpt: Benefits that could be attained from a gasoline blended to provide improved short-trip fuel economy are assessed, approached with two goals in mind: (1) develop a test procedure to effectively evaluate any method that shows promise for improved fuel utilization; (2) use the procedure to obtain a better understanding of what is needed in present-day gasoline to improve short-trip economy. The short-trip cycle is a 3-stage test starting with the vehicle at ambient conditions and repeating a 0.685-mile-cycle ten times as the vehicle warms up. The vehicle is stopped for ten minutes. This is followed by the first 505 seconds of the EPA driving schedule commonly referred to as the hot transient run, or the 1975 Hot Run. At this time, the vehicle is considered to be fully warmed up, and the initial cycle is repeated three times. The factorial test design was used to compare typical seasonal fuels with a special fuel developed to better establish the effect of fuel gravity on fuel economy. Two operating temperatures, 0 and 90/sup 0/F, were used. The fuel effect was evaluated in small cars and in large cars and with standard carburetion and fuel injection. The four cars used in the program were a Cadillac Seville with fuel injection, an Oldsmobile Delta 88 with carburetion, a Volvo 245 DL with fuel injection, and a Ford Pinto with carburetion. The study estimates that an improvement of 1% in fuel economy during the first five miles will effectively reduce our annual gasoline consumption by 200 to 300 million gallons. (MCW).

Download or read book Passenger Car Fuel Economy in Short Trip Operation. Technical Progress Report, May 1, 1977--November 30, 1977 written by and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies to define fuel utilization in highway transportation have consistently shown that the fuel used in starting and driving the first few miles of any trip is disproportionally large when compared to the fully warmed up fuel economy. The program described was devised to provide a base line for subsequent studies of short-trip fuel economy that will eventually be needed to evaluate alternative power plants and fuels. The immediate objective is the evaluation of methods devised to provide improved fuel utilization and compare conventional gasoline with a special fuel blend aimed at improved short-trip economy. A technical progress report is given that outlines the test design, selection of the fuel blends, driving cycle, operating procedure, test equipment, selection of the test vehicles, and data handling methods. It covers the period May 1, 1977 to November 30, 1977. The test work involving the fuel consumption measurements on four vehicles operated on a chassis dynamometer at 0/sup 0/F and 90/sup 0/F is complete.

This book was released on 2010-07-30 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technologies and Approaches to Reducing the Fuel Consumption of Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicles evaluates various technologies and methods that could improve the fuel economy of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, such as tractor-trailers, transit buses, and work trucks. The book also recommends approaches that federal agencies could use to regulate these vehicles' fuel consumption. Currently there are no fuel consumption standards for such vehicles, which account for about 26 percent of the transportation fuel used in the U.S. The miles-per-gallon measure used to regulate the fuel economy of passenger cars. is not appropriate for medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, which are designed above all to carry loads efficiently. Instead, any regulation of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles should use a metric that reflects the efficiency with which a vehicle moves goods or passengers, such as gallons per ton-mile, a unit that reflects the amount of fuel a vehicle would use to carry a ton of goods one mile. This is called load-specific fuel consumption (LSFC). The book estimates the improvements that various technologies could achieve over the next decade in seven vehicle types. For example, using advanced diesel engines in tractor-trailers could lower their fuel consumption by up to 20 percent by 2020, and improved aerodynamics could yield an 11 percent reduction. Hybrid powertrains could lower the fuel consumption of vehicles that stop frequently, such as garbage trucks and transit buses, by as much 35 percent in the same time frame.

Download or read book Assessment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light-Duty Vehicles written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-06-03 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various combinations of commercially available technologies could greatly reduce fuel consumption in passenger cars, sport-utility vehicles, minivans, and other light-duty vehicles without compromising vehicle performance or safety. Assessment of Technologies for Improving Light Duty Vehicle Fuel Economy estimates the potential fuel savings and costs to consumers of available technology combinations for three types of engines: spark-ignition gasoline, compression-ignition diesel, and hybrid. According to its estimates, adopting the full combination of improved technologies in medium and large cars and pickup trucks with spark-ignition engines could reduce fuel consumption by 29 percent at an additional cost of $2,200 to the consumer. Replacing spark-ignition engines with diesel engines and components would yield fuel savings of about 37 percent at an added cost of approximately $5,900 per vehicle, and replacing spark-ignition engines with hybrid engines and components would reduce fuel consumption by 43 percent at an increase of $6,000 per vehicle. The book focuses on fuel consumption-the amount of fuel consumed in a given driving distance-because energy savings are directly related to the amount of fuel used. In contrast, fuel economy measures how far a vehicle will travel with a gallon of fuel. Because fuel consumption data indicate money saved on fuel purchases and reductions in carbon dioxide emissions, the book finds that vehicle stickers should provide consumers with fuel consumption data in addition to fuel economy information.
