To determine at what temperatures and to what extent water in brake fluids produces loss of braking effect, tests were conducted at Badische Anilin- und Soda-Fabrik AG, Ludwigshafen, Germany; stroking test equipment, used in accordance with SAE 70 R 1, for temperatures up to 200 C, was employed; changes in braking effect were recorded by manograph; at temperatures below 150 C water content of up to 10% by volume in normal commercial brake fluids has practically no effect on braking process.
