Abstract
In this study a real driving cycle was measured and applied to a computational model in order to assess the possible fuel consumption of different vehicles in the route. The methodology proposed for the data acquisition uses the low cost ELM327 Bluetooth Scanner connected to the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) port of the vehicle and an Android device with GPS. Based on the measured driving cycle and different vehicle powertrain data, simulations were performed. Fuel consumption results of different vehicles simulated in the real driving cycle are presented and compared with the data measured in order to validate the model. The calculated fuel consumption error between the actual vehicles and the computational models was less than 2%. The methodology developed can be applied for different routes, places and vehicles and may assist customers in choosing the most recommended car considering fuel saving at the purchase time.
