Abstract :
Evaluating the thermal effects and variations in temperature of rolling pneumatic tires, is a very important factor in
safe performance of the vehicles. Normally, the transient thermal investigation of rolling tires is performed
by tire test rigs. However, experimental analysis is a very time and cost consuming process and because of
technical limitations, the tests cannot be carried out in most severe conditions. In this work, a validated finite
element model is proposed for transient thermal investigation of rolling pneumatic tires. Compared with the
experimental tests, the current study gives satisfactory results for temperature distribution of the tire.
