Calculate and report the three carbon balance error quantities for each test interval; carbon mass absolute error for a test interval ( εaC), carbon mass rate absolute error for a test interval ( εaCrate), and carbon mass relative error for a test interval ( εrC). For duty cycles with multiple test intervals, you may calculate and report the composite carbon mass relative error, εrCcomp, for the whole duty cycle. If you report εrCcomp, you must still calculate and report εaC, εaCrate, and εrC for each test interval.
