Real-world Driving Cycles of Electric and Gasoline Motorcycles on Uncongested City Road Network
Keywords:
Real-world driving cycle, Electric motorcycle, CO2 EmissionsAbstract
The objectives of this study were to develop real-world driving cycles of electric and gasoline motorcycles on uncongested road network and to compare their energy consumptions and CO2 emissions. The onboard measurement equipment, installed on test motorcycles, was developed to measure their speed, energy consumption, and position every second. This study selected the route on road network in Khon Kaen University to collect the riding data during off-peak period, and also participants, including male and female riders, to ride the test motorcycle. Results revealed that the developed real-world driving cycle of gasoline motorcycle has an average running speed, average acceleration and average deceleration higher than those of electric motorcycle. As entire driving cycle, the electric motorbike consumed energy and emitted CO2 per kilometer and per second lower than the gasoline motorcycle. Especially during idling, the electric motorbike consumed energy per second and emitted CO2 obviously lower than the gasoline motorcycle.
