자동차 브레이크액 누유에 따른 발화 위험성 연구

The brake fluid plays an important role in braking device. It increases the water content and lowers the boiling point and the flash point, as the travel distance is increased. The possibility of vapor lock and the risk of fire is also increased. The brake fluid leakage due to the solenoid failure in the ABS module, which is a main component of the brake system, can be ignited by the circuit board terminal trekking short circuit. It has been confirmed that the leaked brake fluid caused by overheating of the drum and the disc due to repetition of braking can be ignited even in the case of short-circuit spark and high-temperature metal contact. Also, the leakage and the injected brake fluid due to the cylinder failure of the disc and the drum brake are ignited by overheating due to braking repetition.
