Abstract
The vehicle fuel economy rating system in South Korea has adopted the US 5-cycle fuel economy system since 2012 to provide consumers with comprehensive information. However, due to resource constraints, derived 5-cycle equations have been utilized to approximate 5-cycle test results using the 2-cycle test. This study examines the accuracy of derived 5-cycle fuel economy equations for 20 recent vehicle models in Korea and updates them based on the correlation between 5-cycle and 2-cycle fuel consumption. The updated equations are expected to refine fuel economy ratings for up to three models, ensuring the label's reliability.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
