An investigation of dynamic aquaplaning using small pneumatic tires

The dynamic aquaplaning of pneumatic tyres with diameters ranging from 9 to 17 inches, was investigated on a rolling road test apparatus using a 1/4 inch deep water layer laid onto the ground belt at matching speed. The aquaplaning speed was found to be related to the average ground contact pressure...
