  1. Informal Document No. GRB-51-13 (51st GRB, 15-17 February 2010, Agenda Item 4(b)) Torque Influence on C3 category tyres The tyres when type approved according to R117.02 should not be overruled by R51.03 Geneva WP29 / GRB 51st session February 15-17, 2010

  2. Regulations on Sound Emissions for Exterior Noise Coast-by noise @ 70 km/h Pass-by noise (WOT)= Coast-by noise @ 35 km/h + torque induced noise + vehicle noise Tyre type approval • All tyres have to fulfill UNECE R117 during constant rolling at 70 km/h with engine off (Uniform provisions concerning the approval of tyres with regard to rolling sound emissions) Vehicle type approval • The tyre is part of the vehicle test UNECE R51 during pass-by at 35 km/h with accelerated vehicle, WOT (Uniform provisions concerning the approval of motor vehicles having at least four wheels with regard to their noise emissions) WOT = Wide Open Throttle Coherency between legal requirements of R117 and R51Amend. is needed.

  3. Drive-By – R51 – Method Evolution • Future Test Method – R51-03 • - Partially loaded vehicle • 50 kg/kW – rear axle 75% max • - Reference point: engine front • - Tyres tread depth at min 80% of the full tread depth • - Engine speed A-A: vehicle dependent • - Engine speed B-B: Min. 85% of N_Pmax1615 tpm (MX) • - Gears: 1 (sometimes 2)Gear with 35 km/h at 85% of N_Pmax • - Power train load: 80 % - 100 % • - Mean of max. SPL LE and max. SPL RI determines result • Current Test Method – R51-02 - Unloaded vehicle - Reference point: vehicle front - Tyres at min tread depth can be used - Engine speed A-A: Prescribed ½ (or ¾) of N_Pmax - Engine speed B-B: divers1600 – 2100 tpm (MX) - Gears: several F.e. 4 - 8 at 12-speed gearbox - Power train load: 10 % - 75 % - Overall max. SPL (left or right) determines result The two methods are different, not correlated and then can result on higher noise level. Main impact for the tyre is the modification of constraint on tyre tread depth.

  4. European Typical Configuration of Tractor-Trailor-Units Steer Axle, Drive Axle and Trailer Axles of Trucks are equipped with different Tyre Types. • Transmission of • Driving Forces • Traction/Snow tyres; • ~40% of all • Truck tyres • Free Rolling Tyres • Steer Tyres • Drive Tyres Ribs Ribs Sipes Snow Ribs Blocks/Sipes Snow Different countries and different regions need / prefer different types

Engines with torque > 30 000 Nm are on the market Vehicles with torque up to 26 000 Nm @ axle fulfill current limits (80 db(A) , only with smooth tyres

  9. Test Program for R51.03 Induced Noise for N3-Vehicles • As the tyre industry is not allowed to contribute to the results of the monitoring program of ECE and EC during the revision of R51.02, a measurement program was made by the tyre industry to study the influence of torque in the new procedure R51.03 as follows: • Two vehicles from different manufactures with a torque of about 17 000 Nm @ axle and the same steer tyres at the steer axles were measured with different twins in 315/80 R22.5 at the drive axles: • 13 drive tyres from manufacturer A • 8 drive tyres from manufactures B • 3 drive tires from manufacturer C • 3 drive tyres from manufacturer D • 8 steer tyres from manufacturer A-D All tyres fulfill the limit levels of the current R117. All tyres were additionally tested and verified in this program

  10. All tyres used in the test fulfill the current R117 limits R117 value rounded down to next integer minus 1 dB(A) Current limits for M+S C3 Current limit for normal C3 New limit traction C3 New limit normal C3 SPL in dB(A) Drive Steer 13 13 8 8 3 3 3 3 8 8 Manuf. 1 Manuf. 2 Manuf. 3 Manuf. 4 STEER Manuf. 2 Manuf. 3 Manuf. 4 STEER Manuf. 1 Vehicle A Vehicle B Different levels between vehicle A and vehicle B occur due to different wheelbases

  13. Pass-By R51.03 – Overall noise level Conclusions • With the evolution of the R51.03, the tyre has become the major noise source in the vehicle test. • By increasing torque, the tyre/road noise increases. Torque effect as the main factor should be adequately considered in the regulation. • Different tyre types are required to ensure vehicle stability and traffic safety. • All measured tyres shown in the presentation fulfill the current tyre type approval levels (R117). • All measured drive tyres have noise levels from 80 dB(A) to 86 dB(A) (R51.03), measured with axle torque of 17 000 Nm. • Vehicles measured according to R51.03 have higher noise levels. • Tyres type approved to R117.02 should not be overruled by R51.03. • Even tyres that will comply with future lower noise limits of R117.02 will not comply with this R51.03.
