Brake System Sizing And Design

[@adityapartap]

I cannot believe this absolutely GOLD of a channel even exists. On top of that it's free. Good job man, absolutely loving your videos. Learnt a lot of stuff since i started watching

[@mry82]

Who else is binge watching!? lol... Thanks for the clear concise explanations!

[@sejvaastijnliivrasaapt2383]

The most clear and rigorous tutorial video I've ever watched. Better than any course books ever.

[@user-xn5uu2pc1x]

It is facinating lesson to both the beginners and the specialists.

Great to see Huibert " s video.excellnt knowledge and got chance to work with him when I was in Mahindra research velly chennai and he was our MANA counterpart..

[@newb_7776]

This is a great video and answered alot of the questions I have had during my designing a brake system for my engineering design course. Thank you.

[@OkPp-fh2lk]

Hello Huibert Mees. Thank you for this awesome video. Just a quick question, where is the software that you use to create the ideal break curve? Is it publicly available?

[@mustafaabd.7014]

beautiful video, thank you so much for this amazing information!

[@christophermeraz-mata]

Amazing knowledge, thank you!

[@Thatdavemarsh]

Great breakdown and very clearly explained. Nicely done!

[@fmedeiros]

Love this channel!!

Can you do an episode about thermal performance in regards to brakes that you talked about at the end of the video? A perfect example to do an episode on would be the Tesla Model S Plaid which has small brakes (380mm) for the power (1020hp), weight (2200kg) and use-case (Tesla has a bunch of marketing showing it on the racetrack and setting lap times), but it is well known by all journalists that the stocks brakes can't take the abuse of the race track, but the CCB upgrade ("Tesla Track Pack") can.

Excellent. Many thanks for the Video.

Is there a website or programm to calcute the ideal break curve and sice of the calipers/pads/rotors? Very interesting, glad that i found the channel.

[@harshtiwari4890]

How are u able to create the ideal curve in the first hand, using the 4 parameters, pls tell

Rear brake lockup isnt a problem on rear wheel drive, manual transmission race cars. To lock up the rear wheels, the brakes would have to be capable of stalling the engine unless the driver is depressing the clutch and brake pedal at the same time, which a race car driver would not do under race conditions (you lose the benefit of engine braking and engine rpm drops to idle). Rear wheel-hop from improper downshifting is the reason race cars spin in braking zones.

Hello. How can I improve the modulation of my pedal? Chevrolet silverado 2500 2001? The overall condition of the car is very good, the brakes are serviced, but my pedal is not informative at all. I have increased the oil pressure for hydroboost. It gave a result, but I expected more.

Ideally Zcrit is between 0.7-1 G but what happens with Zcrit is above 1 G?

Quick question, is there any relatively simple way of calculating the brake force of a drum brake? I've just gone through some rather complex equations, and got numbers that mesh with the demonstration. But the brake force seems absurdly low for a given line pressure. Is that is truly the case for how drum brakes act? I'm working on graphing some of these things to justify my dislike of the common front disk-rear drum setup people install on aircooled VWs, I think it's dangerous, and according to my calcs so far it is wildly so. However, it can't be that bad, can it?

[@suspensionsexplained]

Drum brakes are a different animal since they have a self energizing tendency. It means they don't need as much hydraulic pressure to operate but it also makes it much more difficult to predict their brake force. I would recommend "Brake Design and Safety" by Rudolf Limpert. It goes into drum brakes quite comprehensively.

Hello sir, how can I contact you ?

[@BrianMartin2007]

Sime misinformation here, the "booster" is the part that amplifies your pedal force to the "Master Cylinder" that you forgot to mention in the beginning, where you called the completed assembly and picture the "booster" Also, your drawing of the lines to the brakes is all over the place. One of the outputs of the master cylinder drives the front brakes and the other for the rear. sorry, it's driving me nuts.

[@suspensionsexplained]

I probably should have said it was the booster/master cylinder assembly. On the lines, it was never my intention to show a real setup with the initial graphic since i knew i would be returning to that topic later on.

[@hutchdw77]

I’ll look for your in depth videos with accurate information, graphics, and concise explanations.
