Figure 18.7 (a) Relationship between tyre and chassis dynamometer roller diameters and (b) linear relationship between rolling resistance and the tyre/roll ratio
diameter the rolling resistance is 1.414 × resistance on a flat road, while for a tyre three times the roller diameter, easily possible on a brake tester, the resistance is doubled. A typical value for the ‘coefficient of friction’ (rolling resistance/load) would be 1 per cent for a flat road.
To indicate magnitudes involved, a tyre bearing a load of 300kg running at 17 m/s (40 mph) could be expected to experience a heating load of about 500 W on a flat road, increased to 1 kW when running on a roller of one third its diameter. Clearly the heating effects associated with small diameter rolls are by no means negligible.
Tyres used even for a short time on rolling roads may be damaged by heating and distortion effects, which are aggravated by the fact that the roll will also be heated in the course of the run. Some dynamometer systems are fitted with tyre cooling systems to reduce tyre damage but all tyres used for any but short duration tests should be specially marked and changed before the vehicle is allowed on public roads.
