Cel The aim of the project is to demonstrate the use of a new technical concept for alternating current traction system for duo-buses. These duo-buses will be in operation on a demonstration line in the Centre of Copenhagen.The electric traction will cover a total length of 3.4 km, starting from Norreport Station and running through dense inner-city areas as well as more open avenues. The alignment is idealy suited for experiments with regard to wire hanging and pylons. Two duo-buses will be tested on this alignment which will have 30 min. intervals.The two duo-buses will be equipped with both a diesel engine and an electric engine. When driving in densely populated areas with high traffic density the duo-bus uses its electric engine. The power is supplied from overhead wires. Outside the central areas the diesel engine is turned on and the duo-bus continues as a conventional diesel bus.The two duo buses will be designed, produced and ready for tests by 1 June, 1993.The electric traction system will similarly be designed and established and ready for tests by the same date. The test period will be 12 months.During the test period a comprehensive evaluation programme will be carried out, includingi.e. the following parameters:- energy onsumption- emissions- noise- maintenance and repair costs- passenger service- reliability and regularly of the system- traffic flow conditions- asethetics and neighbouring conditions.The results will be compared to a duo-bus system using direct-current traction as electric drive (Essen, Germany), and with the ordinary diesel bus system in Copenhagen.The results of the project will be disseminated in the following ways :- Current coverage of the demonstration project by radio and TV- Reports written in German and English will be distributed to bus companies in the European cities- Polders, telling about the demonstration project, will be distributed to passengers travelling with the Copenhagen City and REgional Transport (HT) Program(-y) ENG-THERMIE 1 - Programme (EEC) for the promotion of energy technology in Europe (THERMIE), 1990-1994 Temat(-y) 2.4 - TRANSPORT Zaproszenie do składania wniosków Data not available System finansowania DEM - Demonstration contracts Koordynator COPENHAGEN CITY AND REGIONAL TRANSPORT Wkład UE Brak danych Adres GL.
