Abstroct This report presents an assessment Or proposed techniques for reducing fuel consumption in the In-use light duty road vehicle fleet. Three general classes of techniques are treated: (1) modification of vehi­ cles. (2) modification of traffic flow, and (3) modification of driver beh3vior. Examples of techniques 1n each category are (1) spark aug­ mentation devices, improved carburetors, variable accessory operation; (2) right turn on red, intersection control; and (3) driver training, driver aid devices. In total, 17 different techniques, including 33 specific devices/concepts, are examined and evaluated. Factors 1n­ eluded in the evaluation are fuel economy effects, safety impacts, availability for fleet implementation, and unit price. In addition, the implementation of each technique lS assessed with regard to number of vehicles impacted, fuel savings effected, national cost, potential problems, and required lead time. A principal finding 1S the ranking of cost effective techniques in terms of their assessed potential for reducing fleet fuel consumption. 17. Key Words 18.

Department of Transportation (DOT), Transportation Systems Center, as part of the DOT Vehicle In-Use Energy Conservation Program. The re­ port presents an as sessment of proposed techniques for reducing fuel con­ sumption in the in-use light duty road vehicle fleet. The technical base for this assessment was derived in part from preliminary screening studies and other analyses conducted under the Vehicle In-Use program, and from a re­ view of the current report literature on the subject of automotive fuel economy improvement. The study treats three general classes of techniques for reducing in-use vehicle fuel consumption: modific3.tion of vehicles, modification of traffic flow, and modification of driver behavior. Techniques chosen for examination in the category of vehicle and driver behavior modifications were mutually selected by DOT / Aerospace using guidelines suggested by the results of earlier studies in the Vehicle In-Use program. Techniques chosen for ex­ amination in the category of traffic flow modifications were obtained frorIl. a brief examination of the subject literature and were neces sadly limited to a few representative approaches for which fuel consumption effects and related data were found to be available. In total, 17 different techniques, including 33 specific devices/concepts, were exami.ned. A principal element of the study was the evaluation and ranking of these techniques in terms of their po­ tential contribution to the reduction of fuel consumption in the 1982 vehicle fleet. Appreciation is acknowledged for the guidance and assistance pro- vided by Walter F. Harriott and Robert A. Halter of the Department of Transportation, Transportation Systems Center, who served as DOT/TSC Tech­ nical Monitors for this study. Funding for this effort was processed through SAMSO (AFSC) Con­ tract No. F 04 70 1-77 -C -0078 under an interagency agreement. iii Preceding page blank METRIC CONVERSION FACTORS ~ Approximate Con.erSlons to Metlle Measures ~ ;:; - Approximate Conversions from Metric Measures ------ N -- Symbol When You Know Multiply by To find Symbol Symbol Whu You Know Multiply by To Find Symbol - ;:; - ~- LENGTH g - . - LEN GTH - ~ mllllmel~15 0.04 Inche~ - ::: em centtmf'ters 0.4 Inches - m mele's 3.3 'pet It Illches ·2.S C8fl!lrneferS em ------ m meletS 1.1 yMds yd It feel 30 cen!lfTOP.lers em ~ ...::. = kllurTlell:'lS 0.6 miles vd yards 0.9 metel~ m 'm - = m,les 1.6 lo" IQITletels 'm ~ :; ---- AREA AREA - :e 2 m =----~-- =' $Quare cent,""'ter:; 0.16 square Inches in Squllf8 Inches 6.5 sqUiJre cenl.n'~ters em' -= ~ ~ '0' m' ':>qUdll;!

  • Wessex Ways’ February 2020
    WESSEX VEHICLE PRESERVATION CLUB FOUNDED 1971 www.wvpc.org.uk ‘WESSEX WAYS’ FEBRUARY 2020 VEHICLE OF THE MONTH The Austin Cambridge (sold as A40, A50, A55, and A60) is a motor car range produced by the Austin Motor Company, in several generations, from September 1954 through to 1971 as cars and to 1973 as light commercials. It replaced the A40 Somerset and was entirely new, with modern unibody construction. The range had two basic body styles with the A40, A50, and early A55 using a traditional rounded shape and later A55 Mark IIs and A60s using Pininfarina styling. The A40 number was re-used on a smaller car (the Austin A40 Farina) from 1958 to 1968, and the Cambridge name had previously been used to designate one of the available body styles on the pre-war 10 hp range. The Austin Cambridge was initially offered only with a four-passenger, four-door saloon body, although a few pre-production two-door models were also made. It had a modern body design with integrated wings and a full-width grille. Independent suspension was provided at the front by coil springs and wishbones while a live axle with anti-roll bar was retained at the rear. A van derivative introduced in November 1956 and a coupé utility (pick up) introduced in May 1957 and remained available until 1974, some three years after the demise of the cars on which they had been based. A40 CAMBRIDGE A 1.2-litre straight-four pushrod engine B-Series engine based on the one used in the previous Austin Somerset (although sharing no parts) powered the new Austin Cambridge.

    Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Miles Collier Collections Page 1 of 203 Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Title: Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Creator: Ludvigsen, Karl E. Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.
