Brake NVH
Author: James K Thompson
Publisher: SAE International
ISBN: 0768034809
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
As other vehicle systems have become more refined, more attention must be placed on brake NVH issues because they can cause a negative customer experience. From the laboratory to the road, the use of technology as well as further study by engineers is helping to lessen noise, judder, and vibration in cars. This book provides readers with a fundamental understanding of current practices for measuring and testing brake NVH. From coverage of basic definitions and concepts to in-depth analysis of on-road testing procedures, it will serve as a comprehensive reference guide for brake test technicians, test engineers, lab managers, and others who work on making brakes quieter, smoother, more refined, and more reliable. Readers will learn how to test for brake noise, what tools to use, and which recent standards and practices have led to the successful measurement of brake noise and vibration. Topics covered include: • Common brake noise and vibration issues • Instrumentation, transducers, and other technical details • Measurement practice for laboratory and on-road testing • Brake pad damping and natural frequencies • Current trends in brake noise and vibration measurements

Book Description
Excerpt from Brake Tests: A Report of a Series of Road Tests of Brakes on Passenger Equipment Cars Made at Absecon, New Jersey, in 1913 1. While the development of brakes for passenger equipment cars has been in progress over a period of many years, it was not until the introduction of heavy steel cars that difficulty was experienced, even with improved air brakes, in making the stops, in service and emergency, which are desirable for medium and high-speed passenger service. It should be possible to make such stops as short, smooth and certain, both in application and release, as was possible with the lighter cars of some years ago. 2. This Bulletin is a record of an extended series of tests to determine the best air brake mechanism and foundation brake gear for our heavier steel passenger equipment cars, which have now been in service some five years and these experiments are remarkable in that they have developed data which indicate that, by a full knowledge of the conditions and proper attention to the component parts of the complete apparatus, very short stops may be made with these cars in trains which weigh close to a thousand tons. 3. There has been a continuous increase in the weight and length of cars, length of train and speeds since the introduction of the quick action triple valve in 1888.
