This report studies the Engine Brake market, general is compression release brake or exhaust brake.
A compression release brake (also known as a Jacobs brake or jake brake), is the type of brake most commonly confused with real engine braking; it is used mainly in large diesel trucks and works by opening the exhaust valves at the top of the compression stroke, resulting in adiabatic expansion of the compressed air, so the large amount of energy stored in that compressed air is not returned to the crankshaft, but is released into the atmosphere.
An exhaust brake works by causing a restriction in the exhaust, much like the intake throttle causes in a gasoline engine. In simple terms, it works by increasing the back-pressure of the exhaust. Nearly all of these brakes are butterfly valves similar to a throttle valve, mounted downstream of the turbocharger if there is one.
The revenue of top six manufacturers accounts about 90% of the total revenue in 2016. The high-end products mainly come from USA and Europe.
The leading manufactures mainly are Jacobs, VOLVO, Ennova, MAN and Eaton. Jacobs is the largest manufacturer; its revenue of global market exceeds 43% in 2016. The next is VOLVO and Ennova.
There is mainly two types product of engine brake market: compression release brake and exhaust brake. Compression release brake accounts the largest proportion, however, exhaust brake will has faster growing rate.
