Abstract
The disc brake cooling system for a vehicle with hydraulic brakes has a sealed circular cooling system employing a piston pump which produces a very rapid flow of brake fluid through the brake lines and calipers constantly during non-braking of the vehicle. After braking, the constant rapid flow of the fluid cools the temperature of the fluid, and hence of the brakes, over the course of the rapid circular motion through the system so as to prevent boiling of the fluid.
