Análisis del consumo de combustible aplicando conducción normal y conducción eficiente (ecodriving) en el Distrito Metropolitano de Quito, utilizando combustible de 87 octanos en un vehículo con 1600 cc

Abstract

The present investigation focuses of the analysis of fuel consumption applying 2 driving behaviours: normal driving and efficient driving (ecodriving) in the city of Quito, to check fuel savings by implementing driving technique. A route with traffic established by Metropolitan District of Quito was selected. As a test fuel Extra 87 octane was used in a CHEVROLET Aveo Activo 1.6 cc vehicle as it was of the most sold vehicles from 2016 to 2020 based on the statistical data proposed by AEADE. For the analysis of fuel consumption were used an OBD II ElM 327 communication interface, a phone mobile, an application denominated TORQUE PRO and a fuel canister denominated LIQUI MOLY. In the gets results applying an efficient driving with experimental method its evident a reduction of fuel consumption from 0,014 l/km, this value is the same with the real methodological, applying efficient driving. Showing a savings of $0,001 per kilometre travelled, which is equivalent to $150 of economic savings taking as a reference data an annual route of approximately 15,000 km.
