Division 5.2 Calculation of integrated fuel consumption
United Kingdom
Any recorded negative values for the fuel consumption shall be used directly and shall not be set equal to zero for the calculations of the integrated value.
The total fuel mass consumed by the engine over a complete testcycle or over each WHTC-sub-cycle shall be determined by integrating recorded values of fuel massflow in accordance with the following formula:
where:
total fuel mass consumed by the engine over the time period from t0 to t1
time at the start of the time period
time at the end of the time period
number of recorded values over the time period from t0 to t1
recorded fuel massflow values over the time period from t0 to t1 in chronological order, where k runs from 0 at t0 to n at t1
interval width between two adjacent recorded values defined by
