METHOD OF REDUCING COMBAT VEHICLE THERMAL SIGNATURE Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC B60C23/19 

Abstract RU 2418689 C1

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to military equipment, particularly, to concealment methods. Variable-section diffusers are arranged under vehicle bumper, on the right and left and opposite the wheels, to boost cooling air flow and direct it to the wheel. Wheel tire features increased area of cooled surface by arranging vanes on wheel tire sides to allow additional air intake. Said vanes represent arc-like elements arranged on both sides of wheel tire to boost incoming air flow through diffuser and direct it to the wheels whereat said airflow is entrapped by said vanes to reduce wheel tire heating temperature.

EFFECT: reduced heat load on tires and reduced probability of detection by enemy reconnaissance means and destruction by high-accuracy weapons, and increase run with no surplus air in tires.
