Abstract
The optimization of the brake systems is crucial for vehicle performance and safety of Formula SAE (FSAE) race cars. This study introduces a specialized brake test bench designed to enhance the understanding and testing of these systems. The bench integrates a rotating mechanical system mounting a brake disc-caliper group, which is driven by an electric motor, a pneumatic brake pedal assembly to simulate real braking conditions, and a comprehensive array of sensors that facilitate the measurement of critical parameters, such as rotation speed, braking torque, oil pressure, and disc temperature. Its structure, sensor integration, and control electronics are fully described, demonstrating the capability to replicate on-track scenarios in a controlled environment. The results underscore the utility of the bench in providing precise and consistent testing conditions essential for analyzing the efficiency, durability, and safety of the braking systems of FSAE race cars.
