Method to determine CO2 emissions and fuel consumption for heavy buses

  • 2.1.For heavy buses the vehicle specifications of the complete vehicle or completed vehicle including properties of the final bodywork and auxiliary units shall be reflected in the results for CO2 emissions and fuel consumption. In the case of heavy buses built in steps, more than a single manufacturer may be involved in the process of generation of input data and input information and the operation of the simulation tool. For heavy buses the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption shall be based on the following two different simulations:
  • (a) for the primary vehicle;
  • (b) for the complete vehicle or completed vehicle.
  • 2.2.If a heavy bus is approved by a manufacturer as a complete vehicle, the simulations shall be performed for both the primary vehicle and the complete vehicle.
  • 2.3.For the primary vehicle the input to the simulation tool covers input data regarding the engine, transmission, tyres and input information for a subset of auxiliary units ([^E0017]). The classification into vehicle groups is performed in accordance with Table 3 based on the number of axles and the information whether the vehicle is an articulated bus or not. In the simulations for the primary vehicle the simulation tool allocates a set of four different generic bodies (high floor and low floor, single deck and double deck bodywork) and simulates the 11 mission profiles as listed in Table 3 for each vehicle group for two different loading conditions. This leads to a set of 22 results for CO2 emissions and fuel consumption for a primary heavy bus. The simulation tool produces the vehicle information file for the initial step (VIF1), which contains all necessary data to be handed over to the subsequent manufacturing step. The VIF1 comprises all non-confidential input data, the results for energy consumption ([^E0018]) in [MJ/km], information on the primary manufacturer and the relevant hashes ([^E0019]).

  • 2.4.The manufacturer of the primary vehicle shall make the VIF1 available to the manufacturer responsible for the subsequent manufacturing step. Where a manufacturer of a primary vehicle provides data going beyond the primary vehicle requirements as set out in Annex III, this data does not influence the simulation results for the primary vehicle but is written into the VIF1 to be considered in later steps. For a primary vehicle the simulation tool furthermore produces a manufacturer’s records file.
  • 2.5.In the case of an interim vehicle, the interim manufacturer is responsible for a sub-set of relevant input data and input information for the final bodywork ([^E0020]). An interim manufacturer does not apply for certification of the completed vehicle. An interim manufacturer shall add or update information relevant for the completed vehicle and operate the simulation tool to produce an updated and hashed version of the vehicle information file (VIFi) ([^E0021]). The VIFi shall be made available to the manufacturer responsible for the subsequent manufacturing step. For interim vehicles the VIFi also covers the task of documentation towards approval authorities. No simulations of CO2 emissions and/or fuel consumption are performed on interim vehicles.
  • 2.6.If a manufacturer performs modifications to an interim, complete or completed vehicle, which would require updates to the input data or the input information allocated to the primary vehicle (e.g. a change of an axle or of tyres), the manufacturer performing the modification acts as a primary vehicle manufacturer with the corresponding responsibilities.
  • 2.7.For a complete or completed vehicle the manufacturer shall complement and, if necessary, update the input data and input information for the final bodywork as transmitted in the VIFi from the previous manufacturing step and shall operate the simulation tool to calculate the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption. For the simulations at this stage, heavy buses are classified based on the six criteria set out in point 1.2.3 into the vehicle groups as listed in Tables 4, 5 and 6. To determine CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of complete vehicles or completed vehicles that are heavy buses the simulation tool performs the following calculation steps:
  • 2.7.1. Step 1 - Selection of the primary vehicle sub-group which matches the bodywork of the complete or completed vehicle (e.g. ‘P34 DD’ for ‘34f’) and making available the corresponding results for energy consumption from the primary vehicle simulation.
  • 2.7.2. Step 2 - Performing simulations to quantify the influence of the bodywork and auxiliaries of the complete vehicle or completed vehicle compared to the generic bodywork and auxiliaries, as considered in the simulations for the primary vehicle regarding energy consumption. In these simulations, generic data are used for the set of primary vehicle data, which are not part of the information transfer between different manufacturing steps as provided by the VIF ([^E0022]).
  • 2.7.3. Step 3 - Combining energy consumption results from the primary vehicle simulation as made available by step 1 with the results from step 2 provides the energy consumption results of the complete or completed vehicle. The details of this calculation step are documented in the user manual of the simulation tool.
  • 2.7.4. Step 4 - Results for CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of the vehicle are calculated based on the results of step 3 and the generic fuel specifications as stored in the simulation tool. Steps 2, 3 and 4 are performed separately for each combination of mission profile as listed in the Tables 4, 5 and 6 for the vehicle groups in both low and representative loading condition.

- 2.7.5. For a complete vehicle or completed vehicle the simulation tool produces a manufacturer’s records file, a customer information file as well as a VIFi. The VIFi shall be made available to the subsequent manufacturer in the event the vehicle undergoes a further step to be completed.
