Approach employed by Wagner Electric Corp to dissipate energy that must be absorbed by braking system while retarding vehicle on long grades incorporates use of liquid cooling; disk brake system is designed for air-over-hydraulic actuation using power cluster; coolant used is same as that in engine cooling system, circulated through brake and back to rediator by positive displacement pump; results of tests.
