The investigation of additional cooling fan on the brake system to overcome the overheating issue: a case study of oil cooler retarder brake / Maulana Haydil Rahmadanur ... [et al.]

The retarder brake is a critical component for articulated trucks, particularly in coal mining, where heavy loads are transported on steep terrains. The primary braking system often proves inadequate under these conditions, making the retarder brake essential. However, overheating in the retarder br...
