About this document
Automotive Brake System Overview by Ahmad Ilham Khatami is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses an automobile brake system that uses engine vacuum to assist braking. When the engine is off, atmospheric pressure is used to brake the wheels through the master cylinder. When the engine is running, it shows that vacuum from the intake manifold is routed through a control valve to the master cylinder to help reduce the braking effort needed. The master cylinder then uses hydraulic fluid to apply pressure to the brake bands at each wheel.
