This document summarizes the design and development of a hydraulic disc brake system for a solar car by a group of students at Axis Institute of Technology and Management under the supervision of Mr. Aditya Kumar. The objectives are to design a braking system that can stop the vehicle within the smallest distance possible. The system will use hydraulic technology to transmit uniform braking pressure to the disc brakes. The components include a master cylinder, brake pads, pistons, and connecting pipes. The advantages of hydraulic disc brakes over other systems like reduced friction losses and lighter weight are discussed. The estimated cost is 5,600 rupees and the project is scheduled to be completed from September 2018 to January 2019.

Objective
• The Brakes are one of the most important component of
vehicle they are required to stop the vehicle within the
smallest possible distance so that we are going to design and
develop of hydraulic disc braking system for solar car
4. Brake
• A brake is a mechanical device which inhibits motion.
Hydraulic
• The technology of controlling pressurized fluids to create force and
motion is known as Hydraulics.

6. Hydraulic Brake
• Hydraulics is the use of a liquid under pressure to transfer force or motion
or to increase an applied force.
• The pressure on a liquid is called HYRAULIC PRESSURE.
• And the brakes which are operated by means of hydraulic pressure are
called Hydraulic Brakes.

7. Working Principle
Pascal’s Law:
• The pressure exerted anywhere in a mass of confined liquid is
transmitted undiminished in all directions throughout the liquid.

8. Why we have chosen hydraulic disc brake?
• Hydraulic brakes and mechanical brakes are becoming more advanced.
• When you’re trying to decide which type of brake is best for your particular
braking application.
• It’s important to know the differences in the types of brakes available for
industrial equipment and on and off-road braking applications.

9. Hydraulic Disc Brake Working
• Hydraulic discs feature a closed system of hoses and reservoirs containing special
hydraulic fluid to operate the brakes.
• When the lever is activated, a plunger pushes the fluid through the hoses and into the
calliper where the pads are pushed onto the rotor, stopping the bike.

11. Advantage
• Transmit uniform pressure
• Hydraulic advantage
• Reduce the frictional losses
• Simpler in construction
• Lighter in weight
• Thermal stresses
• Fade in longer time than drum brakes
• Wear resistant
• More braking power than hydraulic drum brakes.

12. Disadvantage
• Fluid can leak.
• Break may fail in case of fluid leakage.
• Maintenance are tough.
• Load on paddle should not be above 200N

14. Task Completion Duration
• Start Date- 10th September 2018
• Market survey- 15th sep to 2 Aug 2018
• Paper work- 2 Aug to 1 sep
• Design and Simulation-1st December to 10 Dec 2018
• Manufacturing – 15 Dec to 15th January 2019

15. Conclusion
• Many truck and buses are equipped with air actuated sliding
caliper disk brakes the high contact force are transmitted
mechanically via needle mounted actuating devices depending
on size the actuating pressure is transmitted evenly to the brake
pads via one or two plunger.
