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

  1. This calculation helps you to find wheel slip condition.
    When you compare it with Produced Tractive effort

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
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  X  1.6   X  3.33 =32607 N-m
