DEVELOPMENT OF A DC MOTOR ASSISTED HYDRAULIC BRAKING SYSTEM FOR AUTOMOTIVE USE

ABSTRACT: Deceleration or stopping the vehicle without any diving and lateral acceleration is essential to develop an effective braking system. The hydraulic braking system with intelligent braking called Antilock Braking system (ABS) and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) has been introduced.  However, due to the insufficient human effort, the ABS and ESC to some extent, not function well.  This has been emphasised to develop a DC motor assist hydraulic braking system by associating the wheel speed and engine fuel flow sensor to stop the vehicle in required braking distance without any diving and lateral movement.  This study investigates theoretically by Solid work simulation model and experimentally by product development. The simulation model has shown that a full load passenger car needs ۱۵.۷Mpa of braking pressure to stop ۵۰km/h vehicle in ۱۰m.  The experimental results of the model show that the pressure develops when the pedal fully applied without and with aids of the DC motor is ۹۱۰ kPa and ۱۱۳۰ kPa respectively, which contribute to ۲۳.۳% of pressure increase. KEYWORDS: DC motor assist hydraulic braking system; Digital Control System; Braking efficiency.
