Simulation of hydrodynamics processes of hydraulic braking system of vehicle

Abstract

The 3D vehicle with the hydraulic braking system and disc brake with the wheel has been investigated. The dynamic models of the disk brake assembly and the wheel have been constructed. The automobile hydraulic braking system consisting of two contours is considered. . The mathematical model of the hydraulic braking system is presented, where the flow of liquid and the interaction of liquid with the rigid bodies are taken into account. The flow of fluid in a hydraulic system is described by a system of equations of a hyperbolic type, which is solved by a characteristics method. During the mathematical simulations and natural experimentations the following results were achieved. The systems of equations of dynamic models’ motions are solved by numerical methods. The dynamic characteristics of the braking system of the automobile are obtained. The results of extreme braking tests and calculations are presented.
