  • Method for determining the temperature of an internal part of the materials of a tire
    Patent number: 10507697
    Abstract: A method for evaluating the thermal stresses associated with the use of a tire mounted on a rim, the method comprising the steps during which a temperature of a gaseous fluid contained in an internal cavity of the tire, and a temperature of the rim, are measured at regular time intervals, and a temperature at at least one internal zone of the materials of which the tire is made is estimated using a pre-established law connecting this temperature to the temperature of the gaseous fluid contained in the internal cavity of the tire and to the temperature of the rim.

  • METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE TEMPERATURE OF AN INTERNAL PART OF THE MATERIALS OF A TIRE
    Publication number: 20180015793
    Abstract: A method for evaluating thermal stresses associated with use of a tire mounted on a rim includes steps of measuring a temperature of a gaseous fluid contained in an internal cavity of the tire at regular time intervals in order to obtain a fluid temperature, measuring a temperature at a location on the rim at regular time intervals in order to obtain a rim temperature, and determining an estimated temperature at at least one internal zone of materials of which the tire is made using a pre-established law connecting the estimated temperature to the fluid temperature and the rim temperature.
