The formula that is used to

compute hydroplaning speed is: Minimum total hydroplaning

speed (knots) equals 9 times the square root of tire inflation pressure (psi) or:

V = 9 ÆP

For the B-757 main wheels, the speed would be:

9 Æ144 = 108 knots

What speed increment can make the difference between hydroplaning and not hydroplaning?

The speed increment that can make the difference between hydroplaning and not hydroplaning typically ranges from 30 to 35 miles per hour (48 to 56 kilometers per hour) on wet roads. Hydroplaning occurs when a vehicle's tires lose contact with the road surface due to water accumulation, and this risk increases significantly as speed rises. Maintaining lower speeds in wet conditions can help prevent hydroplaning, especially when water depth is greater than the tire tread depth.


What is it called When your vehicle loses contact with the pavement and rides on a thin layer of water?

When your tires lose adhesion with the road it is called 'hydroplaning'

What speed increment can make a difference between hydroplaning and not hydroplaning?

Hydroplaning can occur when a car’s speed exceeds the water evacuation capacity of its tires, typically around 35-55 mph depending on tire tread depth and road conditions. Driving at speeds below this threshold and ensuring proper tire maintenance can reduce the risk of hydroplaning.


Hydroplaning occurs when?

Hydroplaning occurs when vehicle tires go over more water than they can displace. In these situations the tire is separated from the road by a layer of water.
