Zusammenfassung:A hydrodynamic retarder (1) is disclosed configured to brake a shaft (3) of a vehicle (5). The retarder (1) comprises a working circuit (9, 15, 19) comprising a shovel space (9), a workspace (15), and an outlet channel (19). Moreover, the retarder (1) comprises a pressure sensor arrangement (21) configured to, at least selectively, sense the pressure at a first portion (23) of the working circuit (9, 15, 19) and at a second portion (25) of the working circuit (9, 15, 19), wherein the second portion (25) is different from the first portion (23). The present disclosure further relates to a retarder arrangement (40), a transmission arrangement (50), a power train (60), a vehicle (5), a method (100) of estimating a braking torque of a retarder (1), a computer program, a computer-readable medium (200), and a control arrangement (43) for a retarder (1).
