Abstract
Fuel consumption measurement itself is a demanding process and it is difficult to determine the exact consumption of a vehicle. Fuel consumption can be determined in various ways. One way to determine consumption is through driving tests. We know several types of driving tests. Nowadays, most vehicles and all new vehicles can provide a wealth of data to the driver directly during vehicle operation. One of them is the data on the consumption of the vehicle also through the on-board computer located in the vehicle. The information provided to the driver may not reflect reality. In most cases, they are inaccurate and do not correspond to reality. Therefore, the subject of the research will be to verify the accuracy of the provided data on vehicle consumption by the on-board computer. The aim of the research will be to determine the extent to which consumption data are true. Vehicle consumption, as well as measurements are performed on one vehicle in every day traffic. This will ensure that it is possible to compare the measured data with each other.
Highlights
The driver can significantly influence the car’s fuel consumption with his driving technique [3, 7, 25]
The result of this research is proposals and recommendations, the use of which can be used to determine the average consumption of the vehicle and to verify the accuracy of the on-board computer in the vehicle
The practical part of the work was performed on a car. This means that the results and the final evaluation of the problem are fully usable in practice
Summary
The driver can significantly influence the car’s fuel consumption with his driving technique [3, 7, 25]. We often come into conflict between the actual consumption of a car and the consumption declared by the manufacturer This can be caused by the driving technique, the load on the vehicle or even a different way of monitoring fuel. There are several ways in which car consumption can be determined and subsequently observed [1, 11, 15] In any case, it is a driving test, which is based on a pre-processed methodology. It is a driving test, which is based on a pre-processed methodology This methodology sets out the measurement conditions, the measurement procedure, so that it results in the most objective expression of the vehicle’s consumption [2, 8, 26]. In connection with this issue, there are several companies on the market that deal with the provision of these services through their own software [6, 23, 29]
