Vehicle Retarder
Vehicle retarder is a device usually used on heavy vehicles to augment or replace some of the functions of primary friction-based braking systems. For the working principal, the vehicle retarder is composed of stator part producing magnetic field and rotor part producing resistance torque through cutting the magnetic lines by rotating of the rotor, so the vehicle retarder can make vehicle decelerating through this torque.
