MOVESTAR: An Open-Source Vehicle Fuel and Emission Model based on USEPA MOVES
Ziran Wang, Guoyuan Wu, George Scora
In this paper, we introduce an open-source model "MOVESTAR" to calculate the fuel consumption and pollutant emissions of motor vehicles. This model is developed based on U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES), which provides an accurate estimate of vehicle emissions under a wide range of user-defined conditions. Originally, MOVES requires users to specify many parameters through its software, including vehicle types, time periods, geographical areas, pollutants, vehicle operating characteristics, and road types. In this paper, MOVESTAR is developed as a simplified version, which only takes the second-by-second vehicle speed data and vehicle type as inputs. To enable easy integration of this model, its source code is provided in various languages, including Python, MATLAB and C++. A case study is introduced in this paper to illustrate the effectiveness of the model in the development of advanced vehicle technology.
