20、ary of Test Method4.1 These test methods describe the use of an instrumented vehicle with a single test wheel capable of measuring the tireperformance properties under drive torque on snow and ice surfaces when traveling in a straight line.4.2 The test is conducted by driving the test vehicle over t
21、he test surface. Driving torque is gradually increased to the test wheelwhile maintaining the vehicle speed by applying braking torque to the non-test wheels of the vehicle. The driving tractioncoefficient is determined from the measured values of longitudinal and vertical forces over a specified sl
22、ip or time range. Therecommended vehicle test speed is 8.0 km/hr (5.0 mph).5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method describes a technique for assessing the performance characteristics of tires in a winter environment onsnow and ice surfaces. When snow is referred to hereafter, ice is implied as a
23、ppropriate.5.2 The measured values quantify the dynamic longitudinal traction properties of tires under driving torque. Dynamic tractionproperties are obtained on snow surfaces prepared in accordance with the stated test procedures and attempts to quantify the tiresperformance when integrated into a
24、 vehicle-environmental system. Changing any one of these environmental factors will changethe measurements obtained on a subsequent test run.5.3 This test method addresses longitudinal driving traction properties only on snow and ice surfaces.
