- Abstract
The study aims to determine the effect of the water level in brake fluid on the rate of increase in brake fluid temperature and the boiling point of brake fluid. The study used an experimental method to determine the performance of 5 brands of brake fluid. The brands of brake fluid used are Jumbo, Fuso, Prestone, Tiga Berlian and Toyota Motor Oil (TMO). In each experiment, the rate of increase in temperature and the boiling point of the variation of 5 brands of brake oil uses 60ml of brake fluid. Changes in brake fluid temperature were measured using an infrared thermometer. To increase the temperature of brake fluid using an electric stove, then the calculation of the rate of increase in brake fluid temperature is done. The water level in brake fluid greatly affects the rate of increase in brake fluid temperature and the boiling point of brake fluid. The higher the water level of brake fluid, the longer the rate of increase in brake fluid temperature is achieved and the lower the boiling point of brake fluid. The rate of increase in brake fluid temperature and the boiling point of brake fluid is the longest achieved by the Prestone brand brake fluid, while the fastest is achieved by Toyota Motor Oil (TMO) brand brake fluid.
