This project was performed to develop a computer programm suitable for use in systematic analyses requiring estimates of the energy requirements of mass transit vehicles as a function of driving schedules and vehicle size, shape, and gross weight. The Power Requirements (POWREQ) Simulation Model is a computer program that simulates the energy requirements of a transit vehicle during its execution of a given driving schedule, and was designed to operate on the TSC DEC-10 Operating System either in batch mode or in time-sharing mode via remote terminals. The POWREG Simualtion Program was programmed in the Fortran IV compiler language for execution on the DEC-10 by a series of commands input by the user. The user is provided the capability of analyzing the effects of various types of driving schedules and road profiles on energy requirements. A CALCOMP plotting routine is provided so that the user, if desired, can request graphs illustrating the time variation of the important parameters. The graphs will be generated off-line. (DePo)
