What is Rolling Resistance at Wheels?
Rolling resistance, sometimes called rolling friction or rolling drag, is the force resisting the motion when a body (such as a ball, tire, or wheel) rolls on a surface. It is mainly caused by non-elastic effects; that is, not all the energy needed for deformation (or movement) of the wheel, roadbed, etc., is recovered when the pressure is removed. Analogous with sliding friction, rolling resistance is often expressed as a coefficient times the normal force. This coefficient of rolling resistance is generally much smaller than the coefficient of sliding friction
How to Calculate Rolling Resistance at Wheels?
Rolling Resistance at Wheels calculator uses Rolling Resistance at Wheel = Normal Load on Wheels*Rolling Resistance Coefficient to calculate the Rolling Resistance at Wheel, Rolling Resistance at Wheels formula is defined as the force that opposes the motion of an object when it rolls on a surface, resulting from the interaction between the object and the surface, and is a critical parameter in the design and optimization of wheeled vehicles and systems. Rolling Resistance at Wheel is denoted by Fr symbol.
How to calculate Rolling Resistance at Wheels using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Rolling Resistance at Wheels, enter Normal Load on Wheels (P) & Rolling Resistance Coefficient (fr) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Rolling Resistance at Wheels calculation can be explained with given input values -> 14.5 = 1000*0.0145.
