Summary of Test Method4.1 These test methods describe the use of an instrumentedvehicle with a single test wheel capable of measuring the tireperformance properties under drive torque on snow and icesurfaces when traveling in a str
25、aight line.4.2 The test is conducted by driving the test vehicle over thetest surface. Driving torque is gradually increased to the testwheel while maintaining the vehicle speed by applying brakingtorque to the non-test wheels of the vehicle. The drivingtraction coefficient is determined from the me
26、asured values oflongitudinal and vertical forces over a specified slip or timerange. The recommended vehicle test speed is 8.0 km/hr(5.0 mph).5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method describes a technique for assessing theperformance characteristics of tires in a winter environment onsnow and ice
27、 surfaces. When snow is referred to hereafter, iceis implied as appropriate.5.2 The measured values quantify the dynamic longitudinaltraction properties of tires under driving torque. Dynamictraction properties are obtained on snow surfaces prepared inaccordance with the stated test procedures and a
28、ttempts toquantify the tires performance when integrated into a vehicle-environmental system. Changing any one of these environmen-tal factors will change the measurements obtained on asubsequent test run.5.3 This test method addresses longitudinal driving tractionproperties only on snow and ice sur
29、faces. Refer to TestMethods F 1572 for test methods for braking and lateraltraction properties on snow or ice, or both.6.
