jake brake
The Jacob's engine brake is a device, which uses the energy of the engine compression to provide vehicle retardation. Engine brakes provide the maximum retarding power at rated speed; therefore, gear selection is important. The engine brake converts the engine to an energy-absorbing device to reduce vehicle speed. This is accomplished by a hydraulic circuit that opens the exhaust valves near the end of the compression stroke.
The Jake Brake is a hydraulic engine attachment that, when energized, altars the engine exhaust valves operation which converts the diesel engine into an air compressor. This is accomplished by prematurely opening the exhaust valves near the top of the compression stroke releasing the compression pressure to exhaust. The result is an engine retarding effort to the drive wheels.
