Description / Abstract:
1. Scope--The purpose of this SAE Standard is to provide a standardized
test procedure for generating engine performance maps. An engine
performance map is a listing of engine fuel flow rates versus torque or
power obtained at specific engine speeds and loads. Engine performance
maps as specified by this code can be used in fuel economy simulation
programs.
This document is applicable to both four-stroke spark ignition (SI) and
compression ignition (CI) engines, naturally aspirated and pressure
charged, with or without charge air cooling.
