Summary of Practice4.1 This practice provides a procedure to determine the1.707-m diameter roadwheel tire test conditions (s

28、peed, load,and inflation pressure) for flat surface equivalent test severity.It also enables the user to determine the 1.707-m diameterroadwheel test conditions for a specific increase or decrease inseverity with respect to flat surface test severity. The converseis also true, determining the flat s

29、urface test conditions thatprovide equal test severity to a selected set of 1.707-mdiameter roadwheel test conditions.4.2 This practice provides a prediction profiler procedure(see Section 7 and Annex A1) to establish equivalent testseverity between a 1.707-m diameter rotating wheel (PracticeF551) a

30、nd a flat surface, by adjusting test speed, load andinflation pressure. The prediction profiler provides the abilityto identify numerous test conditions and resultant belt edgetemperature differentials within the confines of this practice asdescribed in Section 6.4.3 Equivalent test severity is defi

31、ned as the set of testconditions (load, speed, and tire inflation pressure) that provideequivalent steady state tire internal operating temperatures atthe belt edge (BE) for: (1) a conversion from flat surfaceconditions to a 1.707-m diameter roadwheel conditions or (2)a conversion from a 1.707-m dia

32、meter roadwheel conditions toa flat surface conditions.25. Significance and Use5.1 Historically, tires have been tested for endurance by avariety of test methods. Some typical testing protocols havebeen: (1) proving grounds or highway testing over a range ofspeeds, loads, and inflations, (2) testing

33、 on fleets of vehicles forextended periods of time, and (3) indoor (laboratory) testing oftires loaded on a rotating 1.707-m diameter roadwheel;however, the curved surface of a 1.707-m diameter roadwheelresults in a significantly different tire behavior from thatobserved on a flat or highway surface

34、.5.1.1 This practice addresses the need for providing equiva-lent test severity over a range of typical tire operating condi-tions between a 1.707-m diameter roadwheel surface (PracticeF551) and a flat surface. There are different deformations of thetire footprint on curved versus flat surfaces resu

35、lting indifferent footprint mechanics, stress/strain cycles, and signifi-cantly different internal operating temperatures for the twoF2869 10 (2016)2types of contact surface. Since tire internal temperatures arekey parameters influencing tire endurance or operating char-acteristics under typical use

36、 conditions, it is important to beable to calculate internal temperature differentials betweencurved and flat surfaces for a range of loads, inflation pressuresand rotational velocities (speeds).5.2 Data from lab and road tire temperature measurementtrials were combined, statistically analyzed, and

37、tire tempera-ture prediction models derived.25.2.1 The fit of the models to the data is shown as thecoefficient of determination, R2, for the critical belt edge:R2= 0.90Two Standard Deviations (2-sigma) = 3.2C(that is, 95 % of the variation from the meansis within 63.2C)5.2.2 These prediction models

38、 were used to develop theprediction profilers outlined in Section 7 and Annex A1.6. Limitations6.1 The procedures as given are valid for radial pneumaticLT tires up through load range E for the following ranges oftest speed, tire inflation pressure and test load, for flat testsurfaces and a 1.707-m

39、diameter roadwheels:6.1.1 Tire test speed in the range of 80 to 137 km/h (flat andcurved surface).6.1.2 Tire test inflation pressure in the range of 50 to 110 %of the inflation pressure associated with the maximum loadcapacity of the tire, for example, sidewall stamped.6.1.3 Tire test load in the ra

40、nge of 41 to 143 % of themaximum load capacity of the tire, for example, sidewall-stamped maximum rated load.6.2 The procedures described in Section 7 determineequivalent operating conditions between a flat surface and a1.707-m diameter roadwheel by using empirical models tomatch tire internal belt

41、edge temperatures. These empiricalmodels are derived from a wide variety of tires tested withinthe above ranges and can be used to interpolate at anyconditions within the constraints listed above. It is not recom-mended that the procedures be used for extrapolation beyondthe constraints listed above

42、.7. Procedure7.1 Equivalent Test Severity Prediction Profilers:7.1.1 The flat-to-curved (FTC) prediction profilers are SASJMP interactive displays based on algorithms developed fromlaboratory and highway tire temperature measurements. Theyprovide 1.707-m diameter roadwheel tire test (rotational)spee

43、d, tire test load, and tire test inflation pressure conditionsfor equivalent test severity (as well as for lesser or more severetest severity) based upon the belt edge region temperatures.Before using the profilers, the user will have targeted aroadwheel “delta temperature” amount in degrees C for t

44、he tirerunning on a flat surface, that is, the targeted operatingdifference in temperature between the roadwheel and highwaycondition. By first identifying the desired “deltatemperature(s),” the user will be able to identify (via theprofilers) roadwheel test conditions to achieve the temperature“del

45、ta(s).” The equivalency determination is based upon a“delta” in rotational speed (km/h), % load, and/or % inflationfrom the known highway operating conditions within thelimitations specified in Section 6.7.1.2 The converse also applies for equivalent highway testconditions that can be identified fro

46、m specified roadwheel testconditions by use of the curved-to-flat (CTF) predictionprofilers.7.2 When using either the FTC (or CTF) Delta DegCprediction profilers, three variables are available for interactivemodification:Delta 1.7 m Dia RW KPH The change in tire rotational speedfor the roadwheel rel

47、ative to thehighway speed in km/h.1.7 m Dia RW % Flat SurfaceInflationThe percent change in roadwheeltire inflation relative to thehighway tire inflation.1.7 m Dia RW % Flat SurfaceLoadThe percent change in roadwheeltire load relative to thehighway tire load.7.2.1 These variables appear along the x-

48、axis of the predic-tion profiler and can be changed by clicking and dragging.Effects of changing these variables can be viewed as tempera-ture changes in the belt edge region identified on the y-axis as:“LT BE Flat Surface to 1.7 m Dia RW Delta DegC”7.3 The curved-to-flat (CTF) prediction y-axis is

49、labeled“LT BE 1.7 m Dia RW to Flat Surface Delta DegC” while thex-axis are labeled from the perspective of identifying therequired changes from roadwheel conditions to flat conditionsin order to achieve the targeted severity levels on the flatsurface.7.4 See Annex A1 for examples of prediction profilersoutputs.7.5 Flat-to-Curved (FTC) Prediction Profiler Macro But-ton (available on electronic copy or ASTM F09 site):http:/www.astm.org/F2869_flat_to_curved.html7.6 Curved-to-Flat Surface (CTF) Prediction Profiler Macro Button (available on electronic copy o
