This calculator can be used to determine the efficiency of a brake system by comparing the input power to the output power.
Learn how to use the Brake Efficiency Calculator and its working principles
Brake efficiency is a measure of how effectively a brake system converts input power into output power. It is calculated as the ratio of brake output power to brake input power, expressed as a percentage. A higher brake efficiency indicates a more effective brake system.
If the brake input power is 1000 watts and the brake output power is 950 watts, the brake efficiency would be calculated as follows:
Brake Efficiency = (950 / 1000) * 100% = 95%
