Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Introduction
Fuel cell vehicles (FCV) include the following types:
⎯ pure fuel cell vehicle (PFCV), in which the fuel cell system is the only on-board energy source for
propulsion and auxiliary systems;
⎯ fuel cell hybrid electric vehicle (FCHEV), in which the fuel cell system is integrated with an on-board
rechargeable energy storage system (RESS) for electric energy supply to propulsion and auxiliary
systems.
FCHEV design options include:
a) externally chargeable or non-externally chargeable;
b) rechargeable energy storage system (RESS): battery or capacitor;
c) driver-selected operating modes: if the FCHEV has no driver-selected operating mode, it has only an
FCHEV mode.
Table 1 shows the classification of FCHEV.

consumption during the test cycle, unless otherwise specified in the relevant annexes.
5 Hydrogen consumption measurement
5.1 General
Various methods for the measurement of hydrogen consumption have been developed which reflect the
current state of studies in the field. Hydrogen consumption shall be measured using one of the following:
⎯ pressure method;
⎯ gravimetric method;
⎯ flow method.
2 © ISO 2008 – All rights reserved

---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
ISO 23828:2008(E)
These three methods, which are described in detail in Annexes D, E and F, have been shown to give
sufficiently equivalent results. Other methods may also become applicable if they show comparable
equivalence and reliability.
5.2 Pressure method
Hydrogen consumption is determined by measuring the pressure and temperature of gas in the high-pressure
hydrogen tank, before and after the test. A tank with known internal volume that allows measurement of gas
pressure and temperature shall be used for the test.
5.3 Gravimetric method
Hydrogen consumption is calculated by measuring the weight of the high-pressure hydrogen tank before and
after the test. The tank used for the test shall be suitable for measuring weight.
5.4 Flow method
The amount of hydrogen supplied to and consumed by a vehicle is measured by a flow meter.
6 Test procedure
6.1 General condition
The test shall be conducted after preparation of the vehicle and test apparatus as described in this clause.
6.2 Vehicle condition
6.2.1 General
The vehicle shall be clean, and the windows and air entries that are not needed for the correct operation of the
vehicle and the drive system shall be closed by the normal operating controls.
The lighting, signalling and auxiliary devices shall be turned off, except those required for testing and for usual
day-time operation of the vehicle.
6.2.2 Vehicle stabilization
Prior to testing, the test vehicle shall be stabilized; this includes vehicle mileage accumulation in accordance
with a manufacturer-determined distance, unless otherwise specified in Annex A, B or C (as appropriate).
6.2.3 Vehicle appendages
Vehicles shall be tested with normal appendages (mirrors, bumpers, etc.). Where necessary, certain items
(e.g. hub caps) may be removed for safety on the dynamometer.
6.2.4 Vehicle test mass
The vehicle test mass shall be selected in accordance with Annex A, B, or C.
6.2.5 Tyres
6.2.5.1 General
Tyres recommended by the vehicle manufacturer shall be used.
© ISO 2008 – All rights reserved 3

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
ISO 23828:2008(E)
6.2.5.2 Tyre pressure
When the vehicle tyres are at ambient temperature, they shall be inflated to the pressure specified by the
vehicle manufacturer for the chosen test (track or chassis dynamometer).
6.2.5.3 Tyre conditioning

procedures described in Annexes A, B and C. However, the shift positions may be selected and determined
previously in accordance with the vehicle characteristics.
6.2.8 Regenerative braking
If the vehicle has regenerative braking, the regenerative braking system shall be enabled for all dynamometer
testing. If a vehicle is equipped with an antilock braking system (ABS) or a traction control system (TCS) and
is tested on a single-roll dynamometer, these systems may inadvertently interpret the non-movement of the
set of wheels that are off the dynamometer as a malfunctioning system. If so, modifications to these systems
shall be made to achieve normal operation of the remaining vehicle systems, including the regenerative
braking system.
6.2.9 RESS stabilization
The RESS shall have been stabilized with the vehicle, as defined in 6.2.2, or by equivalent conditioning.
6.3 Chassis dynamometer conditions
6.3.1 General
The vehicle generally should be tested on a single-roll chassis dynamometer. A four-wheel-drive vehicle shall
be tested by modifying the drive train of the vehicle. When the vehicle is modified, the details shall be
explained in the test report.
A four-wheel-drive dynamometer test may be performed when a modification for a single-roll dynamometer
test is not possible for a specific four-wheel-drive vehicle.
6.3.2 Dynamometer calibration
The dynamometer shall be calibrated as specified by the vehicle manufacturer, or in accordance with the
specifications indicated in the service manual provided by the dynamometer manufacturer.
6.3.3 Dynamometer warm-up
The dynamometer shall be warmed up sufficiently prior to the testing.

ISO 23828:2008(E)
6.3.4 Determining the dynamometer load coefficient
The determination of vehicle road load under reference atmospheric conditions shall conform to ISO 10521-1,
and the reproduction on a chassis dynamometer shall conform to ISO 10521-2 or national standards. Vehicles
equipped with regenerative braking systems that are activated at least in part when the brake pedal is not
depressed shall have regenerative braking disabled during the deceleration portion of coast-down testing on
both the test track and dynamometer.
6.4 Fuel consumption tests
6.4.1 General
Depending on the region concerned, the appropriate procedure shall be followed from Annex A, B, or C.
Details and common procedures for each test mode are described below.
6.4.2 Vehicle preconditioning
Vehicle preconditioning shall be carried out in accordance with the annex appropriate for the region. In the
case of FCHEV, the RESS state of charge may be pre-adjusted by charging or discharging, to obtain a
suitable energy difference in RESS between the start and the end of test.
6.4.3 Vehicle soak
The vehicle shall be soaked in accordance with the appropriate regional procedure prescribed in Annex A, B,
or C.
6.5 Measurement over scheduled driving test
For the measurement of hydrogen consumption, the test vehicle shall be driven on the chassis dynamometer
in accordance with the running mode prescribed for the region (see Annex A, B, or C, as appropriate). The
hydrogen consumption can be measured by one of the methods described in Annex D, E, or F, or by an
alternative method that provides equivalent accuracy.
The hydrogen consumption is determined by means of one of the following equations:

6.6 Correction of the test results for FCHEV
6.6.1 General
After the FCHEV has been tested, the hydrogen consumption shall be corrected if the energy difference in the
RESS between the start and the end of test is above the limit described in 6.6.2.
6.6.2 Allowable limit for RESS energy change for FCHEV
The allowable limit for RESS energy change is
||∆ E u0,01× E (4)
RESS CF
where
∆E is the energy change in RESS over the test cycle;
RESS
E is the energy of consumed fuel over the test cycle.
CF
Further details are described in Annex J.
6.6.3 Correction procedure using a correction coefficient
The hydrogen consumption at ∆E = 0 shall be calculated by using a correction coefficient to be provided
RESS
by the vehicle manufacturer. Details on the acquisition and the application of the correction coefficient are
given in Annex K.
NOTE Annex L gives recommendations on the data collecting procedure to obtain the correction coefficient.
7 Presentation of results
Test results should be recorded in accordance with Annex I. The fourth significant digit should be rounded off
to provide the hydrogen consumption rate to three significant digits.
Other data should be recorded as required by the regional regulations.
