The objective of this investigation was to determine the feasibility of using stored energy hydraulic propulsion (SHEP) technology in current transit buses, and to present an evaluation of the fuel savings and economic cost/benefits of the SHEP systems that are currently in the concept and hardware stages of development for transit coaches. The analysis included a determination of the current status of SHEP systems proposed or developed anywhere in the world. The costs and benefits resulting from the operation of the proposed systems were analyzed from actual and computer projected data using a transit coach computer simulation model. This report includes a description of the computer simulation model and an extensive list of references pertinent to the report subject, as well as numerous charts depicting transmission systems, drive systems, and other hydraulic stored energy projection systems.
