THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENGINE EXPERIMENT SYSTEM WITH DRIVING SIMULATION FOR STUDY ON VEHICLE EXHAUST EMISSIONS. PART 1, CONTROL AND MEASUREMENT OF SIMULATOR AND ITS CHARACTERISTICS. PART 2, DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM AND COMPUTER APPLICATION

A driving simulator developed for experimental study on vehicle exhaust emissions, is described. The system comprises a dynamometer, engine and driving simulation control units, and measurement apparatus. Each control unit is a hybrid system which combines signals from manual operations, magnetic tapes, and logic circuits which reproduce engine operation modes equivalent to real driving conditions, thus making it possible to carry out emission tests under transient conditions, in addition to steady-state performance tests. The simulator system includes a data logger developed for off-line data processing. This paper is presented in two parts and part 2 is devoted to a description of the data processing system and computer programs. /TRRL/
