Input parameters for the simulation tool

Introduction

This Appendix describes the list of parameters to be provided by the vehicle manufacturer as input to the simulation tool. The applicable XML schema as well as example data are available at the dedicated electronic distribution platform.

The XML is automatically generated by the air drag pre-processing tool.

Definitions

(1) ‘Parameter ID’:
  • Unique identifier as used in the simulation tool for a specific input parameter or set of input data

  • (2) ‘Type’:
  • Data type of the parameter

    string …
  • sequence of characters in ISO8859-1 encoding

  • token …
  • sequence of characters in ISO8859-1 encoding, no leading/trailing whitespace

  • date …
  • date and time in UTC time in the format: YYYY-MM-DD T HH:MM:SS Z with italic letters denoting fixed characters e.g. ‘2002-05-30T09:30:10Z’

  • integer …
  • value with an integral data type, no leading zeros, e.g. ‘ 1800 ’

  • double, X …
  • fractional number with exactly X digits after the decimal sign ( ‘ . ’ ) and no leading zeros e.g. for ‘ double, 2 ’ : ‘ 2345.67 ’ ; for ‘ double, 4 ’ : ‘ 45.6780 ’

  • (3) ‘Unit’ …
  • physical unit of the parameter

  • Set of input parameters

    Input parameters ‘ AirDrag ’

    Parameter name Parameter ID Type Unit Description/Reference
    Manufacturer P240 token
    Model P241 token
    CertificationNumber P242 token Identifier of the component as used in the certification process
    Date P243 date Date and time when the component hash is created
    AppVersion P244 token Number identifying the version of the air drag pre-processing tool
    CdxA_0 P245 double, 2 [m 2 ] Final result of the air drag pre-processing tool.
    TransferredCdxA P246 double, 2 [m 2 ] CdxA_0 transferred to related families in other vehicle groups in accordance with Table 16 of Appendix 5. In case no transfer rule was applied CdxA_0 shall be provided.
    DeclaredCdxA P146 double, 2 [m 2 ] Declared value for air drag family

    In case standard values in accordance with Appendix 7 shall be used in the simulation tool, no input data for air drag component shall be provided. The standard values are allocated automatically in accordance with the vehicle group scheme.
