The Thermo-Mechanical Coupling Analysis of Disc Brakes Transient Temperature Field

Article Preview

Abstract:

With the higher speed of the car, brake disc temperature will increase sharply when emergency braking, and its performance is demanded more and more higher. According to the Heat Conduction Theory, a brake disc's Thermo-mechanical Coupling model is built using ABAQUS software to analyze the brake disc transient temperature field. The analysis results shows that there is temperature gradient along the radial direction and axial direction, the temperature of the surface nodes with braking time has a wavy change, and the simulation result can be used as the references of brake disc design and selection.
