A study reduce fuel comsumption method of the bus Transinco B80 is using in the Ho Chi Minh City

Abstract

In this paper, the present fuel consumption calculates method are based on the actual investigates of routine control the bus transinco B80 of group drivers in the Saigonbus. From the calculation results, the subject of science is basis determine the necessary amount of fuel supply on the bus route in the Ho Chi Minh City. In addition, the authors have proposed and tested by actual measures to reduce fuel consumption contribute to improving economic efficiency when using bus transinco B80.
