Abstract |
Brake system is the most significant safety aspect of an automobile. It must be slow the vehicle quickly and reliably under varying conditions. This paper aims to establish a brake test rig capable of measuring the performance of a drum brake at different operational and environmental conditions. The effects of dry and humid environment are considered under different applied forces and vehicle sliding speed. The experimental results showed a slight increase in the friction coefficients between drum and brake lining with increasing pressure or speed at dry and wet conditions. Keywords- Drum Brake, Friction Coefficient, Applied Load, Vehicle Speed, Dry and Wet Conditions. | |||||||||
