Performance of 4 WD tractor on graveled road

Abstract

The distribution of the vertical loads of the axles and the air pressure in the front and rear tires have an influence on the kinematic discrepancy between the front and rear driving wheels during the exploitation of the 4 WD tractor. The kinematic discrepancy between the front and rear driving axle has an influence on fuel efficiency on the 4 WD driven tractors, too. The performance of 4 WD driven tractors during transport work on the graveled road is analyzed in this paper. The interaction of the different air pressure of the front and rear driving wheels with the road surface is analyzed in this paper. There are shown the results of the experimental investigation of the kinematic discrepancy influence on fuel efficiency during exploitation of the 4 WD driven tractor on the graveled road in this paper.
