Modernization of the Trailer for Tyre/Road Rolling Resistance Measurements

Abstract

In the article the ways of defining tyre rolling resistance are presented. The advantages of the laboratory tests of tyre/road rolling resistance and the advantages and disadvantages of on the road tyre/road rolling resistance tests are described. The description of the special trailer used for tyre/road rolling resistance measurements designed and constructed in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Gdansk University of Technology, is presented also. The trailer is equipped with special test systems which compensate the impact of disturbance factors such as: aerodynamic drag and inertia force acting on the tested tyre, slope of the road, tilt of the trailer and the vibrations of the measuring arm. The article contains the descriptions of the compensation systems applied in the measuring trailer. The conclusions which came from the measurements performed using compensation test systems are included.
