The SAE J3211 procedure applies to brake squeal evaluation using single-ended inertia dynamometers for friction couples used on vehicles with regenerative braking systems. This RP applies to squeal noise occurrences for on-road passenger cars and light trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating of 4536 kg or below. The procedure incorporates aspects related to (a) minimum inertia dynamometer capabilties, (b) fixture requirements and setup, and (c) test sequences with emphasis on brake temperatures, brake pressure profiles, and strategies to represent brake blending.

The scope of this recommended practice is to establish definitions and recommended methods for the measurement of lateral run-out and disc thickness variation in the laboratory and vehicle for passenger cars and light duty trucks up to 4546 kg gross vehicle weight. This recommended practice will breakdown the instrumentation (sensors and sizes), test setup, and data processing.

This document applies to shims only and will outline insulator design guidelines for improved manufacturability, cost and optimized product performance (Durability, bondability…)

This procedure is applicable to modes from 500 and 13,000 Hz. The parameters measured with this procedure are defined as the damping factor, ξ for first nine vibration modes of the beam. The measurement will be done in free-free conditions and with temperature.

This procedure is applicable to brake pad modes between 500 Hz and 16 kHz. The parameters measured with this procedure are defined as the first three natural frequencies, fn (n = 1, 2, 3), and the corresponding loss factors, η.

This test procedure outlines the necessary test equipment (test fixture, dynamometer, data acquisition system, etc.) and test sequence required to test for low-frequency brake noise (200 Hz to 1.25 kHz) on a brake noise dynamometer. It is intended to complement SAE J2521, which focuses on high-frequency brake squeal. This RP applies to passenger cars and light trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating below 4536 kg. Before using this RP for heavier vehicles, consult and agree with the test requestor and the testing facility.
