Traction of the Car

Traction properties of a car are determined by two parameters: specific traction force (dynamic factor) D and specific power Ny. A vehicle with a high specific traction (with sufficient traction) will successfully overcome difficult sections of the road. Low specific power will not allow reaching the required speed. But the high power density will provide … Читать далее
