1. OVERVIEW
Even though a driver cuts off the power, while driving, the vehicle continues to move due to the
law of inertia. Therefore, a braking device is needed to stop the vehicle. The brake system
normally uses the frictional discs that converts the kinetic energy to the thermal energy by
frictional operation. The brake system consists of the brake disc (front wheel), brake disc or drum
(rear wheel), parking brake (mechanical type), master cylinder, booster, pedal and supply lines
(pipes and hoses).
Hydraulic Brake ▶
Brake Pedal ▶This system uses the leverage effect and
Pascal's principle. When depressing the
brake pedal, the pedal pressure is increased
by booster and is delivered to master cylinder
to generate hydraulic pressure. The hydraulic
pressure generated by the master cylinder is
delivered to the brake caliper through the
brake pipes or hoses. This hydraulic pressure
pushes the brake calipers, accordingly the
caliper pads are contacted to brake disc to
generate the braking force.
Brake pedal uses the leverage effect to apply
bigger force to the brake master cylinder.

Braking distance & stopping distance ▶
Stopping distance = free running distance + braking distance
What is stopping distance?
A certain distance (free running distance + braking distance) is needed from the moment an
obstacle appears ahead until you bring your vehicle to a complete stop. This is called as stopping
distance.
What is braking distance?
Tire slip occurs until the vehicle stops completely when the the brake is applied.
This slip is what we call a braking distance.
What is free running distance?
The free running distance is the time from the driver sees the obstacles and begins to prepare for
depressing the brake pedal until the moment the brake pedal is depressed.
