An Investigation of Thermal Analysis in Tractor Cabin using smart material in Rollover Protection Structure

Abstract

A tractor is one of the basic equipment of a farmer and the production on the farm mainly depends on the performance of the tractor and its safety provided by the OEM. A tractor rollover protective structure (ROPS) that reduces the incidence of serious injuries, head injuries and saves the life of the tractor operator and also increases the safety of other passengers along with the tractor operator or driver. In the summer season, farmers mostly use tractors for various farm operations, but in this season, the temperatures are very high and further tire the tractor operators, so it is not safe to operate the tractor. The temperature inside the tractor cabin is very important to ensure a comfortable condition for the tractor driver and passengers
