Abstract |
|
A disc brake is an automobile component is used to suddenly stop or retard the motion of a vehicle in running condition. When the vehicle is in the running condition it has kinetic energy and by application of brake it stops, but as the energy cannot be destroyed it is going to be converted in some other form of energy and this energy is nothing but the heat energy which is produced due to rubbing surfaces of the brake and wheel base which is not desired and the heat must be dissipated quickly in surrounding. The present study is fully based on the heat flux generation and its dissipation rate in low and high speeds of a vehicle so that the failure condition can be obtained. The speed is varied from as low as 2.5 m/s to as high as 8m/s. The results are being plotted in form of graphs also to see the time based variation in heat dissipation rates. |
