Abstract
We introduce an energy dissipation model for traffic flow based on the optimal velocity model (OV model). In this model, vehicles are defined as moving under the rule of the OV model, and energy dissipation rate is defined as the product of the velocity of a vehicle and resistant force which works to it.
