Downscaled medium speed phase of the class 1 WLTC

For the Class 1 cycle, the downscaling period is the time period between second 651 and second 906. Within this time period, the acceleration for the original cycle shall be calculated using the following equation:

aorigi=vi+ 1− vi3,6

where:

vi
  • is the vehicle speed, km/h;

  • i
  • is the time between second 651 and second 906.

  • The downscaling shall be applied first in the time period between second 651 and second 848. The downscaled speed trace shall be subsequently calculated using the following equation:

    vdsci+ 1=vdsci+ aorigi×1− fdsc× 3,6

    with i = 651 to 847.

    For i = 651, vdsci=vorigi

    In order to meet the original vehicle speed at second 907, a correction factor for the deceleration shall be calculated using the following equation:

    fcorr_dec=vdsc_848− 36,7vorig_848− 36,7

    where 36,7 km/h is the original vehicle speed at second 907.

    The downscaled vehicle speed between second 849 and second 906 shall be subsequently calculated using the following equation:

    vdsci=vdsci− 1+ aorigi− 1× fcorr_dec× 3,6

    for i = 849 to 906.
