Further to the integration of formerly coupled market support into the single payment scheme, the value of payment entitlements was, in those Member States opting for historic implementation, based on the individual level of past support.

The recorded value shall be either (a) the net brake engine torque in accordance with point 2.4.4 of this Appendix or (b) the net brake engine torque calculated from the torque values in accordance with point 2.4.4 of this Appendix’.

During modes of the test cycle where the prescribed torque is less than 50 % of the maximum torque at the test speed the specified average torque over the data acquisition period shall be held within ± 10 % of the prescribed torque or ± 0,5 Nm whichever is greater.

The resulting torque curve is the mapping curve and shall be used to convert the normalised torque values of the engine cycle into actual torque values for the test cycle, as described in section 2.

All negative reference torque values and the associated feedback values shall be deleted from the calculation of cycle torque and power validation statistics.

2.SYMBOLS AND DEFINITIONS (The reference brake symbols shall have the suffix e) P=normal reaction of road surface on the axle under static conditions C=camshaft input torque Cmax=maximum technically permissible camshaft input torque C0=threshold camshaft input torque, i.e. minimum camshaft torque necessary to produce a measurable brake torque R=tyre rolling radius (dynamic) T=brake force at tyre/road interface M=brake torque = T 7 R z=braking rate P T = RPM s=actuator stroke (working stroke plus free stroke) Sp=effective stroke - the stroke at which the output thrust is 90 % of the average thrust (ThA) ThA=average thrust - the average thrust is determined by integrating the values ...[+++] between one-third and two-thirds of the total stroke (smax) >START OF GRAPHIC>
