1. Introduction
Energy efficiency is the property that ensures high dynamics of a vehicle with the lowest energy consumption. The improvement of energy efficiency is required due to the growing intensity of road traffic and the requirements to reduce the harmful effect of automobile transport on the environment. Solving a given task is positively influenced
by the emergence of electric cars and hybrid vehicles with a combined electromechanical drive of drive wheels. The existence of electrical part in the drive of drive wheels makes it possible to rationally control the acceleration of a vehicle, in other words, to implement such a law of change in the acceleration of a car depending on speed that would ensure the lowest consumption of energy (power consumption) by the engine.
The largest energy expenditure occurs when a vehicle accelerates on lower gears. That is why studying the influence of various factors on a given process and determining the directions aimed at reducing energy cost is an important stage in addressing the specified important scientific-technical task.
A vehicle controlled by the driver is a movable physical (energy, thermal-mechanical) system for producing mechanical energy and its immediate utilization for the implementation of a transportation process. Therefore, energy issues are particularly important for the automobile. High indicators of vehicle dynamics should be attained at minimal energy consumption by the engine. Under acceleration mode, it is expedient to control a vehicle motion making use of electric part of the drive.
Energy efficiency is one of the most important operational properties of the automobile. Maximal fuel consumption is associated with the unstable mode of operation of vehicle's internal combustion engine. The appearance of cars with a hybrid electromechanical drive of drive wheels makes it possible to reduce the additional consumption of energy under unstable mode of ICE operation.

The task solved in papers [1, 2] implied determining a function AVa ( Va) to be followed by obtaining rational speed ( Va), which ensures (AVa)max. The authors of scientific studies [1, 2], rather than solving equation (5) using the Cardano's expression, applied approximate and numerical solutions. Fig. 1 shows dependences AVa(Va), constructed in papers [1, 2] employing the approximate and numerical methods without an accurate analytical solution to equation (5).
Curve 3 in Fig. 1 is built based on the numerical solution to equation (5). Curve 1 in Fig. 1 - for the case when terms (AVa)3 and (AVa)2 are removed from equation (5); and curve 2 - at (AVa)3=0. The authors of papers [1, 2] were interested in the points of maximum for curves 1, 2, 3. An analysis of these curves allowed them to conclude that the points of maximum of the indicated curves coincide. They are determined from dependence

Papers [1, 2] consider choosing rational motion speed under condition of high dynamic indicators of vehicle. Authors of [3] established the relationship between the power of the engine used to accelerate the vehicle, motion speed, and recommended acceleration

Acceleration of the vehicle from speed Va to speed Va+AVa will last before a new equilibrium is reached (the traction balance [3]). In papers [1, 2], authors derived an equation that determines the condition for establishing the following equilibrium at a higher speed of the vehicle equal to Va+AVa
ANe -ntr = ma g-¥-(Vai _va) + k-F-Vi _va),

Authors of articles [1, 2] derived from equation (3), with respect to relations (1) and (4), a cubic algebraic equation relative to parameter AVa
However, papers [1, 2], to determine (AVa)max, proposed an approximate analytical expression since solving a cubic algebraic equation using the Cardano's expression was time consuming. In order to obtain the exact solution, it is necessary to solve equation (5).

Acceleration time to the assigned speed is the indicator of traction-speed properties of the vehicle. That is why it is required to determine the acceleration time of a vehicle
at Va < Va bound. In addition, it is necessary to compare the
functions of change in the acceleration time of a vehicle on speed, implemented at the existing rational techniques of
control over acceleration and at Va = V a bound .
Targeted measures that affect technologies of vehicles increasingly become a tool for the developers of energy policy in the EU as a means of achieving the objectives in the field of energy efficiency, renewable energy, climate change, and ensuring energy security. There are known papers whose authors explore energy costs of vehicles from

certain fleets and predict their growth: article [4] proposed a model that estimates current energy consumption by the automobile fleet in Andorra, [5] in the Republic of Ireland, and paper [6] - the city of Chang-Zhu-Tan, People's Republic of China. Authors of article [7] suggest a method for calculating energy efficiency of car fleet on the roads in terms of "traffic factor". However, these studies do not solve the problem on determining the relationship between the maximum increase in speed and the minimal increase in the vehicle engine power.
Energy efficiency of the vehicle is addressed in papers [8, 9]. To model the external speed characteristic of the internal combustion engine, the following empirical dependence is applied
Ne = Nemax (aX + bX2 -cX3 ),
(7)
where X is the ratio of the current angular velocity to the angular velocity ro^ at maximum power,
X = ^ ; ra„r

a, b, c are the empirical coefficients of equation (7) (Table 1); Nemax is the maximum engine power.

- there is no analytical solution to equation (5): this makes it impossible to state the law on the rational control over acceleration when accelerating a vehicle.
3. The aim and objectives of the study
The aim of present study is to determine the relationship between the maximum increase in speed and minimal increase in engine power, which would produce a rational law to control vehicle acceleration.
To accomplish the aim, the following tasks have been set:
- to build a rational dynamic characteristic of a vehicle;
- to estimate acceleration time of the vehicle to the assigned speed under various laws of control over acceleration;
- to evaluate effectiveness of ICE performance when accelerating the vehicle at different gears.
4. Rational dynamic characteristic of the vehicle
In a classic statement, first it is required to solve equation (5) relative to AVa, and then proceed to search for the maximum employing known methods [1, 2]
d (AV ) = 0;

First, we propose to differentiate equation (5) for Va. In this case, the specified equation will take the form

A maximum of function (that is, the extremum shown in Fig. 1) AVa(Va) is reached at dAVa/dVa=0. At dAVa/dVa=0, expression (10) takes the following form

The solution to equation (12) with respect to the root that has a physical meaning will be obtained in the form
Papers [10, 11] report the study into stability of the vehicle during acceleration. However, their authors failed to assess the effective work performed by ICE when accelerating a crankshaft from angular velocity romin (minimally stable rotation speed) to maximal angular velocity romax.
Thus, the analysis of known studies revealed the following:
- there is no analysis of the engine energy used for the acceleration of the vehicle when shifting different gears;

Expression (13) connects the maximum increase in the motion speed (AVa)max and rational speed (Va)rat, at which it is possible to implement the specified increase.
It is proposed to solve equation (5) relative to Va. In this case, the indicated equation transforms to the form

Expressions (17) and (18) allow us not only to determine parameters of ((AVa )max and ( Va )rat, but also to obtain a rational dynamic characteristic of the vehicle. ,
Equation (18) will be solved relative to acceleration Va. We shall obtain as a result
Dependence chart of Va( Va) will represent a chart turned at 90° shown in Fig. 1. The chart shown in Fig. 2 demonstrates that (Va)max is implemented at Va=(Va)rat and at Va1=Va2. Condition Va1=Va2 is satisfied when a discriminant of the quadratic equation equals zero, that is, at

An analysis of equation (23) shows that a decrease in Srm leads to a decrease in the acceleration time tp of vehicle from speed Va to speed Vai=Va+AVa. The magnitude of accounting factor for the rotating masses of transmission and engine is close to unity if a crankshaft is under constant speed mode with the vehicle acceleration driven by electric motors.
By multiplying the left and right sides of equation (20) by the magnitude maVa8rm/nt„ we shall obtain a rational law of engine power control at vehicle acceleration
By comparing expressions (6) and (18), we can conclude that the analytical solution to equation (5) allowed us to refine the approximated result that was obtained earlier (6). Correction factor

Therefore, the obtained analytical expressions make it possible to implement a rational dynamic characteristic of a vehicle. It was determined for the example under consideration (Fig. 3) that the rational dynamic characteristic can be implemented over the entire range of possible speeds from zero to Va=70 m/s (252 km/h). In the interval of speeds from 10 m/s up to 30 m/s maximal vehicle acceleration is limited by the boundary adhesive capacity of drive wheels to the road. At the point that corresponds to the fulfilment of condition (6), there is a rupture of function Va (Va).
5. Estimation of vehicle acceleration time to the assigned speed under various acceleration control laws
Fig. 4 shows dependence charts tp=tp(Va), built at different values of 9x. A decrease in adhesion coefficient from 0.8 to 0.2 increases the minimum possible acceleration time (for example, from 0 to Va1=30 m/s) by about four times (Fig. 4).

The existing technique to control vehicle acceleration implies combined control over the engine and the gearbox. Engine acceleration is associated with significant additional energy expenditures, since the moment of inertia of its moving parts, applied to the drive wheels, reaches considerable magnitudes.
To model the impact of an ICE speed characteristic, we employ dependences [4]
Ne — Nemax (aX + bX2 -cX3 ),
(27)
where X is the ratio of the current angular velocity roe to the angular velocity ro^ of maximum power Nemax,
X —^ ; ra»r
(28)
a, b, c are the empirical coefficients of equation (27) [8] (Table 1); Ne max is the maximum engine power.
To model partial speed characteristics of ICE, we shall use the following dependence:
Nep — KN ■ Nemax (aX + bX2 - cX3 ),
(29)
where Kn is the coefficient of engine power utilization, equal to the ratio of maximum power at a speed characteristic that is considered relative to the maximum power of the engine
A perfect dynamic characteristic of the vehicle (an acceleration characteristic) is implemented at equality of tangential reactions on wheels to the boundary forces for adhesion. Assuming Va = Va bound and upon solving differential
equation (25) with the variables that are divided, we shall obtain, at vehicle acceleration from speed Va to speed Va1,

When a vehicle reaches maximum speed value Va max on top gear, the angular velocity of crankshaft roe may be less than romax. Therefore, when determining vehicle acceleration time on top gear tpt, the upper bound of integration rot must be taken equal not to romax, but to the magnitude, which is determined from expression
V -U-U,
(44)
where Ugbt is the gear ratio of the gearbox on top gear.
In paper [3], authors obtained the rational dynamic characteristic of a vehicle (dependence of acceleration on car speed). Fig. 5 shows a chart of change in the rational value of
Va dependent on vehicle speed.
In the examined case, vehicle acceleration time from speed Va to speed Va1 must be determined along three sections of the 0Va axis. At the first section, we shall apply expression (20) within a change in Va [Va; Va*]

In this case, the engine gradually passes from one partial speed characteristic to another, until, at a certain angular speed rop of the crankshaft, it switches to the external ICE speed characteristic (Fig. 7).
Accelerating characteristics of automobile ICE are given in papers [1, 3]. The authors obtained boundary ICE accelerating characteristics for adhesion of the vehicle drive wheels to the road. This allowed them to estimate boundary parameters for dynamic properties of a vehicle and to determine the boundary engine power.

Determine coordinates of point P (Fig. 2) by solving the system of equations

For a more general representation of dependence (49), it is expedient to transform it into the following form

An analysis of the results obtained reveals that a transition from lower to higher gears leads to a significant reduction in the engine energy consumption required to accelerate the vehicle. When accelerating, in the same range of speeds, the internal combustion engine (from romin to romax) of the vehicle KrAZ-5233, energy expenditure at gear I is Ae=16.0 MJ, and at gear VIII - Ae=2.0 MJ; in other words, eight times less. This allows us to recommend that hybrid vehicles should accelerate at lower gears employing an electric drive. It is appropriate to implement a rational law for vehicle acceleration control at all gears.
7. Discussion of results of research into a vehicle acceleration control law
The obtained rational law of acceleration control makes it possible to reach a maximum increase in the vehicle speed at minimum consumption of the engine energy. If, at each minimal interval of speed change, one would change, in a stepwise manner, engine power, then the result of acceleration to the maximal speed will be a minimal expenditure of engine energy.
The synthesis of the rational law for vehicle acceleration control became possible through the transformation of equation for vehicle acceleration dynamics when considering it over a small range of change in speed AV
Similar research aimed at synthesizing rational laws for vehicle acceleration control implemented tangential reactions of the road, boundary for adhesion, on drive wheels. However, known laws demanded a multiple increase in the engine power and considerable energy consumption to control a motor-transmission unit.
The results proposed could be further developed for electric cars and hybrid vehicles, in which the implementation of the resulting rational law for acceleration control might be achieved by the simplest means with the lowest consumption of energy.
8. Conclusions
1. The analytical expressions obtained make it possible to implement such a change in the vehicle acceleration depending on its speed that ensures maximum dynamics at minimum engine power consumption, taking into consideration a nonlinear change in external resistance. The maximum acceleration, which is possible to implement using the
rational dynamic characteristic, can amount to Va = 7 m/s2.
2. Based on the dependences obtained, it is possible to determine effective work of ICE required to accelerate a vehicle at different gears. An analysis of calculation results revealed that the transition from lower to higher gears is accompanied by a sharp decrease in engine energy expenditure required to accelerate the vehicle (from Ae=16.0 MJ at gear I of the truck KrAZ-5233 to Ae=2.0 MJ at gear VIII).
3. In the case of hybrid vehicles, acceleration using the electric drive, rather than accelerating at lower gears of the mechanical drive, makes it possible to reduce energy losses by 20 % (for a four-cylinder internal combustion engine). Energy preservation is accomplished by reducing the fluctuation of traction force, as well as the possibility of a step-free change in motion speed.
