BS ISO 10521-2:2006

This standard BS ISO 10521-2:2006 Road vehicles. Road load is classified in these ICS categories:

• 43.020 Road vehicles in general

This part of ISO 10521 specifies methods of setting the target road load on chassis dynamometers for the purpose of a subsequent test, for example the fuel consumption test or the exhaust-emission measurement test.

The road-load setting method on chassis dynamometers depends on the road-load measurement method, such as the coastdown method, the torquemeter method or the wind-tunnel and chassis-dynamometer method. This part of ISO 10521 gives detailed instructions on the methods of the chassis-dynamometer setting procedure for road-load value, obtained by the various measurement methods specified in ISO 10521-1.

This part of ISO 10521 is applicable to chassis dynamometers that can set road load at a minimum of three speed points, and to motor vehicles as defined in ISO 3833 up to a gross vehicle mass of 3 500 kg.
