Research in hydraulic brake components and operational factors influencing the hysteresis losses

Up-to-date automotive brake systems place stringent requirements upon the performance, reliability, and active safety. Such advanced systems as antilock braking systems (ABS), the electronic stability programme system, and the anti-slip control system assist a driver in ensuring driving safety under many conditions. The influence of the brake components on active safety systems is mainly determined through the hysteresis loop width. Among other negative outcomes, this parameter limits the possible frequency of cyclic braking during ABS operation. This paper presents an experimental analysis of the factors influencing the hysteresis pressure losses in a hydraulic brake system. The factors under investigations are the brake pedal stroke velocity, the gaps between the brake pads and the brake disc, and the configuration of the brake system. Experiments were carried out on the brake test equipment at the Automotive Engineering Department, Faculty for Mechanical Engineering, Technische Universität Ilmenau, Germany.
