The air brake system used in heavy vehicle is very important from the point of safety due to its weight. In general, air brake system generates relatively long response time and large loss of pressure. It is known that the response time can be decreased by optimal design of brake system, i.e., by increasing the system pressure, minimizing the air line, and material of components. In this study, We developed experimental rigs for the measurement of braking response of heavy duty trucks and compared with the simulated results obtained from the net work fluid flow system analysis code (FLOWMASTER). The effect of several parameters such as, system pressure, diameter of pipe, chamber temperature on the brake response performance have been examined. |
