LABORATORY ASSESSMENT OF THE INFLUENCE OF CONTACT PRESSURE AND SLIDING SPEED ON WEAR RATE OF A TYRE STEEL GRADE B6T IN DRY SLIDING CONDITIONS
Journal Title: Scientific Journals of Silesian University of Technology. Series Transport - Year 2008, Vol 2008, Issue 64
Abstract
Rail wheels are responsible elements with significant influence on the transport safety and reliability. Their wear, caused by a wheel – rail friction, is an important cause of wheels deterioration. This wear is strongly influenced by such factors as contact pressure and sliding velocity In the present work the influence of tat factors on dry, sliding wear of a tyre steel grade B6T is studied. This steel is used for locomotive tyres manufacturing.
