Overview
The Task-Force is part of the Brake Dynamometer Standards Committee and has the charter of developing a laboratory test procedure using inertia dynamometers to quantify the amount of brake drag on corner assemblies as a function of experienced brake pressure, speed, and temperature. The SAE J2923 test procedure includes brake drag characterization matrix, driving cycles, and optional sections for EPA cycles and integral parking brake systems. This Recommended Practice will also specify the minimum requirements for the drag measurement system to ensure repeatable and accurate measurements.
