compression brake; retarder by combustion engine; engine brake Explanation: I get 122 hits on Google for *compression brake*; 2,830 hits for *engine brake*; and 43 for *retarder by combustion engine*. I also get 35 hits for *retarder system*. I'd go with the term proposed in the first two responses: engine brake! From Termium: (1) English:Trucking (Road Transport) compression brake s 1981-11-09 (2) English:Trucking (Road Transport) Braking Systems (Automotive) retarder by combustion engine s CORRECT engine brake s CORRECT DEF - Supplemental brake located away from the wheels and which can be mechanically disengaged by the clutch and transmission, thereby slowing down the moving vehicle. s 1996-07-25 (3) Note: an exhaust brake works on a different principal: English:Trucking (Road Transport) Braking Systems (Automotive) exhaust-brake retarder s CORRECT exhaust brake s CORRECT DEF - Supplemental brake with a butterfly valve or sliding gate in the exhaust system which restricts exhaust gas flow to decrease piston speed, thus using the engine as a braking device. s OBS - When exhaust flow is restricted, the engine acts as a compressor. As back pressure increases, RPM decreases; vehicle speed also decreases because the engine is coupled to the drive wheels through the transmission. s Here is an example contrasting *freno de motor* and *freno de escape*: ... la velocidad ajustada con la ayuda del ralentizador, freno motor y freno de escape, equilibrando la potencia del ralentizador contra la temperatura del ... www.scania.com/news/archive/wwwtxt/P96990ES.htm (4) Note: (From Termium) English:Braking Systems (Automotive) Braking Devices (Machinery) exhaust brake s OBS - --can be used on petrol engines if a valve isolates the carburetter and simultaneously allows free induction of air from atmosphere s 1975-03-11 Here are some examples of a *freno motor al/en el escape*: Freno de motor Jacobs al escape. www.callegariauto.com/international.html se cuenta con freno de motor en el escape. www.automundial.com.ve/f Reference: http://www.termium.com Google search |
