Calculating Torque at wheels
In this blog we will see method to calculate torque produced at wheels you can calculate torque produced for any combination of Transmission ratio,transfer case or Axle ratio available with you.

Following Inputs are required to perform the calculation.
Inputs Required
  • Engine Torque = 850 N-m
  • Transmission Ratio=7.2:1
  • Transfer case Ratio=1.6:1
  • Axle Ratio=3.33

Torque at Wheels ( N-m)

= Engine Torque X Transmission Ratio X Transfer case Ratio X Axle Ratio
= 850 X 7.2 1.6 X 3.33

=32607 N-m

Calculate Tractive Effort at wheels-TE Inputs Required Torque at Wheels = 32607 N-m Tyre SLR = 0.4 meters Tractive effort (N) =  Torque at Wheels  /  Tyre SLR = 32607/0.40 =81518.4 N Related Link https://autocal1.blogspot.com/2020/06/calculating-torque-at-wheels-inputs.html
Index-Vehicle Performance Calculations 1.  Calculating Torque at wheels 2.  Calculate Tractive Effort at wheels-TE 3.  Finding Engine torque value 4.  Max permissible Tractive effort due to   Ground Adhesion- TEGA 5.  Vehicle Speed calculation 6.  Wheel slip Condition based based on Tractive effort. 7.  Power to weight ratio : PWR
Max permissible Tractive effort due to Ground Adhesion- TEGA To Calculate Max TE due to ground adhesion  you will need to have following data as input. Mue =Coefficient of friction between road and wheel =0.7 (Dry road) =0.4 (wet surface) GUV( Gross vehicle Weight)= 9500 Kg Formula: Tractive effort= GVW X Mue=9500 x 9.81 x 0.7 = 65236.5 N
