Abstract
Vehicle braking capability may be tested in two options: on-road or in workshop conditions. On-road testing is the most credible but difficult to repeat the same conditions and hard to measure and collect braking data. On the other hand testers testing in workshop conditions provide comparable conditions but are less similar to real braking process on the road. Anyway periodical testing of braking systems is performed in workshops equipped with special testers based on flat plates or rolling drums. Both methods involve errors and it is difficult to decide about superiority of one of it. The basic problem is observed in contact area between at tire and surface of the tester. Drum testers are easier to operate and more popular as require less space but the contact area is not so adequate comparing to flat testers. Paper describes analytical approach to measurement errors identification. Methodology of brake testing on flat testers and measurement system is shown. There are discussed measurement errors on flat testers related to the positioning of the vehicle during braking as well as the type and parameters of the test modes. Another paper discusses simulation of the brake process on flat plate tester.
