Rolling Resistance Coefficient

Contemporary vehicle are designer to be eco-friendly. One of the factors limiting the energy consumption of driving processes is a low value of the rolling resistance coefficient. The rolling resistance depends on the construction features of a tire, exploitation conditions and the type of surface the car moves on. This article presents the results of experimental research of determining the rolling resistance coefficient with the use of laboratory method of roller test bench. The results presented here are a part of a wider research of determining the rolling resistance coefficient and the influence of research method on its value.

Rolling Resistance Coefficient

Rolling resistance coefficient is one of the basic resistance when moving objects. In case of objects not equipped with a motor-driven wheels and suspension system , such as: wheelchairs, mobile machinery chopper, shelving and warehouse trucks all resistances are overcome by the muscle strength of the operator. Research is carried out to limit this phenomenon, however, there is a lack of methods for measuring this parameter in the real operating conditions of devices with a wheels and suspension system without a drive unit. The article presents an innovative method of measuring the rolling resistance coefficient of objects equipped only with the wheels and suspension system accordant with the patent application P.424484 and the developed device for these tests in accordance with patent application P.424483. Additionally, the paper presents the results of preliminary tests on the measurement of pivoting coefficient of a transport truck loaded with a given mass.

The rolling resistance of skis used in roller skiing competitions should resemble the gliding resistance of cross-country skis to allow specific training and moving patterns for cross-country skiing and to guarantee equal opportunities for athletes in roller ski races. Therefore, the purpose of this work was to develop a portable rolling resistance meter to precisely measure the rolling resistance of roller skis. Measurements were based on recordings of the angular deceleration of a flywheel due to the rolling resistance between a roller ski’s wheel and the flywheel’s steel surface. Rolling resistance coefficients of four roller ski types ranged between 0.019 and 0.025. Measurements of the rolling resistance coefficient showed a precision of 1.26%. Substantial rolling resistance coefficient variations (10%) were observed for wheels of the same type. Furthermore, the rolling resistance coefficient was found to be negatively correlated with normal load or ambient temperature. The proposed rolling resistance meter is appropriate to determine the rolling resistance coefficient of roller skis’ wheels precisely.

Rolling Resistance Coefficient

Wide range of laboratory and road methods of determining the rolling resistance coefficient impose the need to find an effective way of its estimation. The obtained values of this coefficient differ depending from the assumed calculation model and influence the quality and quantity assessment of cooperation processes between tire and surface. The article presents two experimental methods of determining the rolling resistance coefficient. Road tests were carried out with the use of coast-down and free-rolling method. For each of the road methods the value of the rolling resistance coefficient was determined in three ways. It allowed to compare the selected research methods and calculation methods with the values available in literature.

This study presents rolling resistance estimation in the design process of passenger car radial (PCR) tyre by using finite element method. The rolling resistance coefficient of tyres has been becoming one of main requirements within the regulation in many countries as it is related to the level of allowable exhaust gas emission generated by vehicle. Therefore, the tyre being designed must be digitally simulated using finite element method before the tyre is manufactured to provide a high confident level and avoid unnecessary cost related to failure physical product testing. The simulation firstly computes the deformation of several alternative designs of tyres under certain loading, and then the value of deformation force in each tyre component during deformation took place is calculated. The total force of deformation is considered as energy loss or hysteresis loss resulted in tyre rolling resistance. The experiment was carried out on three different tyre designs: two grooves, three grooves, and four grooves. The four groove tyre design gave the smallest rolling resistance coefficient (RRC). Finally, the simulation was continued to compare different crown radius of the tyres and the result shows that the largest crown radius generates the lowest rolling resistance.

Abstract Reducing the driving force when propelling a wheelchair, e.g. through mechanical gears, is beneficial for people using wheelchairs. This makes it possible to overcome terrain obstacles that would be otherwise impassable with a classic drive system. However, the disadvantage of additional mechanisms supporting the propulsion of the wheelchair is usually the additional mass, ultimately increasing the rolling resistance. The article presents methods of measuring the rolling resistance – widely developed in the automotive industry – in terms of measuring the rolling resistance of wheelchairs. Innovative methods have been demonstrated to measure the rolling resistance on various surfaces and with the use of various drive mechanisms. The developed methods also enable the determination of the rolling resistance coefficient. The methods used are innovative and are subject to patent protection prepared by the authors in recent years. The results of the respondents allow to compare the measurement accuracy of the developed methods and show that the second method (being a simplification of the first method) is characterized by better accuracy.
