Abstract

In order to determine the fuel consumption during operation of locomotive it is necessary to work out the characteristics of fuel consumption vs. power produced by propulsion system. These characteristics can be obtained during tests in a diagnostic stand equipped with water rheostat, which allows to simulate any load on the main generator. Another method depends on utilization data from monitoring system of the propulsion system, obtained during regular operation of the locomotive. The main disadvantage of this method is lack of long-term constant loads, which is caused by frequently changing operating conditions. This has a major impact on the measuring error, which can be minimized by suitable utilization of a large number of measurements. Practical remarks of those methods usage have been presented in this paper.
