Introduction

The Moving Averaging Window method is used to verify the overall trip dynamics. The test is divided in sub-sections (windows) and the subsequent analysis aims at determining whether the trip is valid for RDE purposes. The ‘normality’ of the windows is conducted by comparing their CO2 distance-specific emissions with a reference curve obtained from the vehicle CO2 emissions measured in accordance with the WLTP procedure.

Moving Averaging Windows

3.1.   Definition of averaging windows The instantaneous emissions calculated in accordance with Appendix 4 shall be integrated using a moving averaging window method, based on the reference CO2 mass. The principle of the calculation is as follows: The RDE distance-specific CO2 mass emissions are not calculated for the complete data set, but for sub-sets of the complete data set, the length of these sub-sets being determined so as to match always the same fraction of the CO2 mass emitted by the vehicle over the WLTP cycle. The moving window calculations are conducted with a time increment Δt corresponding to the data sampling frequency. These sub-sets used to calculate the vehicle on-road CO2 emissions and its average speed are referred to as “averaging windows” in the following sections. The calculation described in the present point shall be run from the first data point (forward). The following data shall not be considered for the calculation of the CO2 mass, the distance and the vehicle average speed in the averaging windows: — The periodic verification of the instruments and/or after the zero drift verifications; — Vehicle ground speed is smaller than 1 km/h. The calculation shall start from when vehicle ground speed is higher than or equal to 1 km/h and include driving events during which no CO2 is emitted and where the vehicle ground speed is higher than or equal to 1 km/h. Figure 1 Vehicle speed versus time - Vehicle averaged emissions versus time, starting from the first averaging window Figure 2 Definition of CO2 mass based averaging windows The duration (t 2 ,jt 1 ,j) of the jth averaging window is determined by: Where: is the CO2 mass measured between the test start and time ti,j, [g]; is the half of the CO2 mass emitted by the vehicle over the WLTP test conducted in accordance with Sub-Annex 6 to Annex XXI of this Regulation. During type approval the CO2 reference value shall be taken from the WLTP performed during type approval testing of the individual vehicle. For ISC testing purposes, the reference CO2 mass shall be obtained from point 12 of the Transparency list 1 of Appendix 5 of Annex II with interpolation between vehicle H and vehicle L (if relevant) as defined in Sub-Annex 7 of Annex XXI, using Test mass and Road load coefficients (f0, f1 & f2) obtained from the Certificate of Conformity for the individual vehicle as defined in Annex IX. The value for OVC-HEV vehicles is to be obtained from the WLTP test conducted using the Charge Sustaining mode. t 2 ,j shall be selected such as: Where Δt is the data sampling period. The CO2 masses

in the windows are calculated by integrating the instantaneous emissions calculated as specified in Appendix 4 to this Annex. 3.2.   Calculation of window parameters The following shall be calculated for each window determined in accordance with point 3.1. — The distance-specific CO2 emissions ; — The average vehicle speed .

Evaluation of windows

4.1.   Introduction The reference dynamic conditions of the test vehicle are defined from the vehicle CO2 emissions versus average speed measured at type approval on the Type 1 test and referred to as “vehicle CO2 characteristic curve”. To obtain the distance specific CO2 emissions, the vehicle shall be tested on the WLTP cycle in accordance with Annex XXI to this Regulation. 4.2.   CO2 Characteristic curve reference points The distance-specific CO2 emissions to be considered in this paragraph for the definition of the reference curve shall be obtained from point 12 of the Transparency list 1 of Appendix 5 of Annex II with interpolation between vehicle H and vehicle L (if relevant) as defined in Sub-Annex 7 of Annex XXI, using Test mass and Road load coefficients (f0, f1 & f2) obtained from the Certificate of Conformity for the individual vehicle as defined in Annex IX. The value for OVC-HEV vehicles is to be that obtained from the WLTP test conducted using the Charge Sustaining mode. During type approval, the values shall be taken from the WLTP performed during type approval testing of the individual vehicle. The reference points P 1, P 2 and P 3 required to define the vehicle CO2 characteristic curve shall be established as follows: 4.2.1.   Point P 1 = 18,882 km/h (Average Speed of the Low Speed phase of the WLTP cycle) = Vehicle CO2 emissions over the Low Speed phase of the WLTP cycle [g/km] 4.2.2.   Point P 2 = 56,664 km/h (Average Speed of the High Speed phase of the WLTP cycle) = Vehicle CO2 emissions over the High Speed phase of the WLTP cycle [g/km] 4.2.3.   Point P 3 = 91,997 km/h (Average Speed of the Extra High Speed phase of the WLTP cycle) = Vehicle CO2 emissions over the Extra High Speed phase of the WLTP cycle [g/km] 4.3.   CO2 Characteristic curve definition Using the reference points defined in point 4.2, the characteristic curve CO2 emissions are calculated as a function of the average speed using two linear sections (P 1, P 2) and (P 2, P 3). The section (P 2, P 3) is limited to 145 km/h on the vehicle speed axis. The characteristic curve is defined by equations as follows: For the section (P 1, P 2): with: and: For the section (P 2, P 3): with: and: Figure 3 Vehicle CO2 characteristic curve and tolerances for ICE and NOVC-HEV vehicles Figure 4 Vehicle CO2 characteristic curve and tolerances for OVC-HEV vehicles 4.4.   Urban, rural and motorway windows 4.4.1.   Urban windows 4.4.2.   Rural windows 4.4.3.   Motorway windows Figure 5 Vehicle CO2 characteristic curve: urban, rural and motorway driving definitions (Illustrated for ICE and NOVC-HEV vehicles) except N2 category vehicles that are equipped in accordance with Directive 92/6/EEC with a device limiting vehicle speed to 90 km/h) Figure 6 Vehicle CO2 characteristic curve: urban, rural and motorway driving definitions (Illustrated for OVC-HEV vehicles) except N2 category vehicles that are equipped in accordance with Directive 92/6/EEC with a device limiting vehicle speed to 90 km/h) 4.5.   Verification of trip validity 4.5.1.   Tolerances around the vehicle CO2 characteristic curve The upper tolerance of the vehicle CO2 characteristic curve is tol 1H = 45 % for urban driving and tol 1H = 40 % for rural and motorway driving. The lower tolerance of the vehicle CO2 characteristic curve is tol 1L = 25 % for ICE and NOVC-HEV vehicles and tol 1L = 100 % for OVC-HEV vehicles. 4.5.2.   Verification of test validity The test is valid when it comprises at least 50 % of the urban, rural and motorway windows that are within the tolerances defined for the CO2 characteristic curve. For NOVC-HEVs and OVC-HEVs, if the minimum requirement of 50 % between tol1H and tol1L is not met, the upper positive tolerance tol1H may be increased by steps of 1 % until the 50 % target is reached. When using this mechanism, the value of tol1H shall never exceed 50 %.’

Calculation of the Final RDE emissions results

2.1.   Introduction The trip validity shall be verified in accordance with point 9.2. of Annex IIIA. For the valid trips, the final RDE results are calculated as follows for vehicles with ICE, NOVC-HEV and OVC-HEV. For the complete RDE trip and for the urban part of the RDE trip (k = t = total, k = u = urban): MRDE,k = mRDE,k · RFk The values of the parameter RFL 1 and RFL 2 of the function used to calculate the result evaluation factor are as follows: — Upon the request of the manufacturer and only for type approvals granted before 1 January 2020, RFL 1 = 1,20 and RFL 2 = 1,25; in all other cases: RFL 1 = 1,30 and RFL 2 = 1,50; The RDE result evaluation factors RFk (k = t = total, k = u = urban) shall be obtained using the functions laid down in point 2.2. for vehicles with ICE and NOVC-HEV, and in point 2.3. for OVC-HEV. These evaluation factors shall be subject to review by the Commission and shall be revised as a result of technical progress. A graphical illustration of the method is provided in Figure App 6.1 below, while the mathetical formulas are found in Table App 6.1: Figure App 6.1 Function to calculate the result evaluation factor Table App 6.1 Result evaluation factors calculation When: Then the Result evaluation factor RFk is: Where: rkRFL 1 RFk = 1 RFL 1 < rkRFL 2 RFk = a 1 rk + b 1 b 1 = 1 – a 1 RFL 1 rk > RFL 2 2.2.   RDE result evaluation factor for vehicles with ICE and NOVC-HEV The value of the RDE result evaluation factor depends on the ratio rk between the distance specific CO2 emissions measured during the RDE test and the distance-specific CO2 emitted by the vehicle over the WLTP test conducted in accordance with Sub-Annex 6 to Annex XXI of this Regulation, obtained from point 12 of the Transparency list 1 of Appendix 5 of Annex II with interpolation between vehicle H and vehicle L (if relevant) as defined in Sub-Annex 7 of Annex XXI, using Test mass and Road load coefficients (F0, F1 & F2) obtained from the Certificate of Conformity for the individual vehicle as defined in Annex IX. For the urban emissions, the relevant phases of the WLTP driving cycle shall be:

a)

for ICE vehicles the first two WLTP phases, i.e. the Low and the Medium speed phases,

b)

for NOVC-HEVs the whole WLTP driving cycle.

2.3.   RDE result evaluation factor for OVC-HEV The value of the RDE result evaluation factor depends on the ratio rk between the distance-specific CO2 emissions measured during the RDE test and the distance-specific CO2 emitted by the vehicle over the WLTP test conducted using the Charge Sustaining mode in accordance with Sub-Annex 6 to Annex XXI of this Regulation, obtained from point 12 of the Transparency list 1 of Appendix 5 of Annex II with interpolation between vehicle H and vehicle L (if relevant) as defined in Sub-Annex 7 of Annex XXI, using Test mass and Road load coefficients (F0, F1 & F2) obtained from the Certificate of Conformity for the individual vehicle as defined in Annex IX. The ratio rk is corrected by a ratio reflecting the respective usage of the internal combustion engine during the RDE trip and on the WLTP test, to be conducted using the charge sustaining mode. The formula below shall be subject to review by the Commission and shall be revised as a result of technical progress. For either the urban or the total driving: where ICk is the ratio of the distance driven either in urban or total trip with the combustion engine on divided by the total urban or total trip distance: With determination of combustion engine operation in accordance with Appendix 4 Paragraph 5.’

5.1.1.   Ageing through exposure to temperature cycling

The canister shall be cycled between temperatures from – 15 °C to 60 °C in a dedicated temperature enclosure with 30 minutes of stabilisation at – 15 °C and 60 °C. Each cycle shall last 210 minutes (see Figure VI.2).

The temperature gradient shall be as close as possible to 1 °C/min. No forced air flow should pass through the canister.

The cycle shall be repeated 50 times consecutively. In total, this procedure lasts 175 hours.

5.1.2.   Ageing through exposure to vibration

Following the temperature ageing procedure, the canister shall be shaken vertically with the canister mounted as per its orientation in the vehicle with an overall Grms > 1,5 m/sec2 with a frequency of 30 ± 10 Hz. The test shall last 12 hours.

5.1.3.   Ageing through exposure to fuel vapour and determining BWC300

5.1.3.2. If an aged canister is provided by a supplier, the manufacturer shall inform the approval authority in advance of the ageing process to enable the witnessing of any part of that process in the supplier's facilities.

5.1.3.3. The manufacturer shall provide the approval authority a test report including at least the following elements:

5.2.   Determination of the PF of the fuel tank system (see Figure VI.3)

5.2.1. The fuel tank system representative of a family shall be selected and mounted on a rig in a similar orientation as in the vehicle. The tank shall be filled to 40 ± 2 per cent of its nominal capacity with reference fuel at a temperature of 18 °C ± 2 °C. The rig with the fuel tank system shall be placed in a room with a controlled temperature of 40 °C ± 2 °C for 3 weeks.

5.2.2. At the end of the third week, the tank shall be drained and refilled with reference fuel at a temperature of 18 °C ± 2 °C to 40 ± 2 per cent of its nominal tank capacity. Within 6 to 36 hours, the rig with the fuel tank system shall be placed in an enclosure. The last 6 hours of this period shall be at an ambient temperature of 20 °C ± 2 °C. In the enclosure, a diurnal procedure shall be performed over the first 24-hour period of the procedure described in paragraph 6.5.9. of this Appendix. The fuel vapour in the tank shall be vented to the outside of the enclosure to eliminate the possibility of the tank venting emissions being counted as permeation. The HC emissions shall be measured and the value shall be included in all relevant test reports as HC3W.

5.2.3. The rig with the fuel tank system shall be placed again in a room with a controlled temperature of 40 °C ± 2 °C for the remaining 17 weeks.

5.2.4. At the end of the seventeenth week, the tank shall be drained and refilled with reference fuel at a temperature of 18 °C ± 2 °C to 40 ± 2 per cent of its nominal tank capacity. Within 6 to 36 hours, the rig with the fuel tank system shall be placed in an enclosure. The last 6 hours of this period shall be at an ambient temperature of 20 °C ± 2 °C. In the enclosure, a diurnal procedure shall be performed over a first period of 24 hours of the procedure described in accordance with paragraph 6.5.9. of this Appendix. The fuel tank system shall be vented to the outside of the enclosure to eliminate the possibility of the tank venting emissions being counted as permeation. The HC emissions shall be measured and the value shall be included in all relevant test reports in this case as HC20W.

5.2.5. The PF is the difference between HC20W and HC3W in g/24h calculated to 3 significant digits using the following equation:

PF = HC20w – HC3W

5.2.6. If the PF is determined by a supplier, the vehicle manufacturer shall inform the approval authority in advance of the determination to allow witness check in the supplier's facility.

5.2.7. The manufacturer shall provide the approval authority with a test report containing at least the following:

5.2.8. As an alternative to paragraphs 5.2.1. to 5.2.7. of this Appendix, a manufacturer using multilayer tanks or metal tanks may choose to use an Assigned Permeability Factor (APF) instead of performing the complete measurement procedure mentioned above: APF multilayer/metal tank = 120 mg /24 h Where the manufacturer chooses to use an APF, the manufacturer shall provide the approval authority with a declaration in which the type of tank is clearly specified as well as a declaration of the type of materials used.
