摘要: The Coordinating Research Council (CRC) Volatility Group conducted a program in January and February of 2003 to determine the effect of ethanol content on cold-start and warm-up driveability performance under cool ambient conditions in a large group of late-model vehicles equipped with fuel-injection systems. The goal of the program was to develop concentration-dependent cold-start and warm-up driveability equations for the oxygenate offset of ethanol at cool ambient temperature. The Volatility Group tested 27 conventional vehicles, which were selected from a total fleet of 80 vehicles, based on their response to driveability index (DI) using the highest DI fuel with the highest concentration of ethanol 10 percent. In addition to these 27 vehicles, the CRC Advanced Vehicle/Fuel/Lubricants (AVFL) Committee requested that the Volatility Group test a small number of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) using the same fuels and driveability procedure as the core program. The four hybrid vehicles tested included a Honda Civic, a Toyota Prius, and two Honda Insights. This paper details the analysis and results of the driveability performance testing from the four HEVs. The paper also includes a description of the four vehicles, the fuels used, the test location, procedures, and conditions. The results from the 27 conventional vehicles used in the core program will be published in a separate CRC report.
