Numerical Simulation of Temperature Field on Different Surface Structure of Bicycle Brake Pairs

Abstract:

Using the basic principle of heat transfer, tribology and numerical simulation, a two-dimensional heat transfer model of the three-layer composite brake pair materials were established. The temperature fields of brake pairs during the process of friction were analyzed. Applied given heat loads at different time node on the brake pair model, the temperatures of different bicycle brake pairs were compared and analyzed. Results show that the improved surface structures of brake pair have positive effect on decreasing the temperature of contact areas than that of ordinary surface structure.
