The document describes the main components of a hydraulic braking system: - The master cylinder generates hydraulic pressure when the brake pedal is pressed, transmitting pressure through brake lines. - Brake calipers or wheel cylinders apply the hydraulic pressure to brake pads or shoes, creating friction against the wheels. - Brake fluid transmits the pressure through the lines and lubricates components. It must be periodically replaced. - Brake lines transport brake fluid from the master cylinder to the calipers or wheel cylinders. They require regular inspection. - Brake rotors are slowed by the pads and responsible for stopping the vehicle. Pads press against rotors or drums to slow wheels.

HYDRAULIC BRAKE

4. Master
cylinder:
 The master cylinder is a
cylindrical container that contains
a piston. When the brake pedal is
pressed, the piston in the master
cylinder generates hydraulic
pressure. The hydraulic pressure is
then transmitted through the
brake lines to the brake calipers
or wheel cylinders.

5. Brake
calipers:
 The brake calipers or wheel
cylinders are responsible for
applying the pressure to the
brake pads or shoes, which
then applies pressure to the
wheels, resulting in a stop. The
brake pads or shoes are made
of a friction material that
creates friction against the
wheels, slowing them down.

6. Hydraulic
Brake Fluid:
The brake fluid is responsible for transmitting the pressure
and lubricating the components of the braking system.
Brake fluid is typically made of glycol-ether or silicone, and
it is essential that it is replaced periodically to ensure the
hydraulic brake system functions correctly.

7. ic
Brake
Lines:
 Hydraulic brake lines are
flexible tubes or hoses that
transport brake fluid from the
master cylinder to the brake
calipers or wheel cylinders to
apply pressure and slow down
or stop a vehicle. They're made
of reinforced rubber or braided
stainless steel and are essential
for the safe and effective
operation of a vehicle's braking
system. Regular inspection and
maintenance of brake lines are
necessary to ensure their
proper function and safety.

8. Brake
Rotors:
 These are the rotating
components that are slowed
down by the brake pads and
are responsible for stopping
the vehicle.

9. Brake
Pads:
These are the components
that press against the
rotor or drum to slow
down the vehicle.

10. Practical Application of Hydraulic
Braking System:
Hydraulic braking systems are widely used in various types of vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses,
trains, and airplanes, as well as in industrial machinery and equipment.
In a typical automotive hydraulic braking system, when the driver applies pressure to the brake
pedal, the force is transmitted through a master cylinder that pumps pressurized brake fluid
through the brake lines to the brake calipers or wheel cylinders. This pressure causes the brake
pads or shoes to press against the brake rotor or drum, creating friction that slows down or stops
the vehicle.
Hydraulic braking systems are preferred over other types of braking systems because they
provide reliable, consistent, and responsive braking performance, even under heavy loads or high
speeds. They're also relatively easy to maintain and repair, and can be customized to suit specific
vehicle and application requirements.
In addition to their use in automotive braking systems, hydraulic brakes are also used in other
applications, such as in heavy machinery, cranes, elevators, and aircraft landing gears, to provide
precise control and reliable stopping power.

12. Hydraulic Brake VS
Pneumatic brake
Hydraulic Brake
 Hydraulic braking systems generate more
braking force than pneumatic systems. This is
because the hydraulic fluid is non-
compressible, which means that the force
applied to the fluid is transmitted directly to
the brake calipers or wheel cylinders,
resulting in greater braking force.
 Hydraulic braking systems are generally more
efficient than pneumatic systems. This is
because the hydraulic fluid is denser than air,
which means that less fluid is required to
transmit the same amount of force as air in a
pneumatic system. This also means that
hydraulic systems can be more compact and
require less space than pneumatic systems.
Pneumatic Brake
 Pneumatic braking systems lesser braking
force than pneumatic systems. This is because
the hydraulic fluid gives more pressure than
air.
 Pneumatic braking systems are generally less
efficient than hydraulic systems. This is
because the air is not denser than hydraulic
fluid.
