Modeling of Fuel Consumption for Forest Transportation

Abstract: -As fuel costs increase, it is essential to take measures involving planning and control on any activities with high consumption. Thus, the main aim of this work was modeling the fuel consumption of forest road transportation by truck. We collected data about time, driving distance, average speed, fuel consumption and the load carried by the vehicle for loaded trips, unloaded trips, and the total cycle of forest transport in regions between the municipality of Campo do Tenente (forest site) and Piên (factory) … Show more

“…Depreciation is one of the fixed costs that reduce the value and efficiency of machines in wood transport (ANDERSSON et al, 2015). Higher transport distances lead to more active transport and faster operational speed, reducing costs per ton of transported wood (GUIMARÃES et al, 2016).…”

“…Driving distance can significantly influence the composition of road transportation costs (GUIMARÃES et al, 2016). Lower monthly distances are related to lower production levels, generating little significant savings in cost composition (WANKE;FLEURY, 2006).…”

“…Os trabalhos que lidam com o tem consumo de combustível dos veículos do transporte rodoviário florestal se referem a estimar o consumo médio e preço dos combustíveis momentâneos, como nos trabalhos de ALVES et al (2013). GUIMARAES et al (2016) modelaram o consumo de combustível utilizando a carreta como veículo para transporte de Pinus taeda com 15 anos de idade e produtividade de 40 m³ ha -1 ano -1 , sendo ajustado as seguintes equações para viagem carregado, viagem vazio e ciclo total (Tabela 3). • O maior desperdício de combustível foi causado pela maior utilização da marcha lenta, seguida pelo ponto neutro e do excesso de rotação do transporte rodoviário florestal (SILVEIRA et al, 2004).…”
