What is "good drive performance"? Good driving performance means that you can drive the vehicle within the best economical speed range of the engine when driving a high gear on a flat road at normal speed, and at the same time, you can also cope with the slope, overcome the air resistance and change the tire rolling resistance. Sufficient reserve energy. Experience tells us that "good driving performance = at least 1.2% to 1.5% full-load gradient when trucks are using the highest gear". If the climbing performance is poor, it will increase the number of shifts. Reduce resistance The energy produced by the fuel is used to overcome various resistances: tire rolling friction, air resistance, and resistance encountered when climbing. By reducing these resistances, the demand for power can be reduced, which in turn can reduce fuel consumption. 1. Reduce air resistance For high-speed trucks, it is very important to reduce the air resistance of the vehicle. The entire vehicle design should take effective measures to reduce air resistance, not just the tractor section. The basic starting point is that the airflow around the car body should be blocked as little as possible. In principle, the front of the vehicle should be as small as possible, so do not choose the top structure that exceeds your needs. And don't install extra equipment on the car that would impede airflow around the body. 2. Reduce tire rolling resistance By reducing the frictional force between the tire and the road surface to reduce rolling resistance, fuel consumption can be reduced. Although you cannot directly control the quality of the road, you can choose your own tire and decide how many tires to install on your truck. The general principle is to use fewer tires, all-steel radial tires, tubeless tires, and tires that have been continuously introduced by the manufacturer. This will not only greatly reduce rolling resistance, reduce fuel consumption, but also reduce noise and extend tires. Service life. The following factors should be avoided as far as possible: Tilted tires, large treads, low-profile tires, small tires, and new tires that have not yet been worn in. 3. Correct tire pressure If the tire pressure is lower than the recommended value, the rolling resistance will greatly increase, and it will also lead to a sharp shortened tire life. So every driver should check every day whether his tire pressure is normal. The team should also be equipped with a barometer for each driver.
