Estimation of CO emissions from 2 KAMAZ-54901 truck with the use of Regulation (EU) 2017/2400 methodology

Introduction (problem statement and relevance). For several years already, the world’s leading countries are managing programs aimed at decreasing СО2 emissions from trucks. These programs imply actual (field) testing of components and simulating of vehicle driving according to the test cycles in the special software (SW). In Europe, Regulation (EU) 2017/2400 requires that manufacturers produce and open source such calculations when registering new trucks (heavy-duty vehicles) in the EU territory. The purpose of the study is to compare the CO2 emission level from trucks made by the European manufacturers and from a modern truck produced by KAMAZ PTC.Methodology and research methods. The truck driving was simulated with the use of Regulation (EU) 2017/2400 methodology in the VECTO software. Scientific novelty and results. The СО2 emissions from the modern truck produced by KAMAZ PTC were calculated with the use of Regulation (EU) 2017/2400 methodology in the VECTO software. Practical significance. The obtained calculation results can be used for optimization of the KAMAZ vehicle parameters in order to decrease fuel consumption and СО2 emissions
