Abstract
An auxiliary energy brake system of automotive vehicles has a central pressure source and a hydraulic system which includes pressure medium lines, electrically controllable hydraulic valves, and pressure medium orifices. A pressure sensor is located at the outlet of the pressure source. The braking pressure in the wheel brakes (P.sub.Rb) is established from the measured values (P.sub.meas), determined by the pressure sensor, and from the hydraulic conductance (D) of the orifices of the hydraulic system in accordance with formula EQU P.sub.Rb f (D,P.sub.meas).
