Abstract

Abstract:
The brake system is the primary system in an automobile which ensures its safety on the road. The ideal brake system should operate with the least effort from the driver and should stop the vehicle within the minimum possible distance without loosing controllability. This paper deals with the air brake system relay valve experimental performance. The work focuses on different parameters which would affect valve characteristics. Experimental investigation of the valve characteristics under these parameters is performed and analyzed.
