A Review on Thermal and Structural Analysis of Disc Brakes in Motor Vehicles

Shubhaseesh Srivastava

Abstract


Braking is a technique that turns kinetic energy in a vehicle into mechanical energy that must be dissipated as heat. The frictional heat created at the disc-pad interface can cause high temperatures during the braking period. Thermal elastic instability (TEI), early wear, brake fluid vaporisation (BFV), and thermally stimulated vibrations can all be caused by frictional heat created on the rotor surface (TEV). In this research, a vehicle's solid type disc brake rotor will be investigated for the use of various materials in order to improve braking efficiency and give improved vehicle stability. SOLIDWORKS is used to model the disc brake rotor, which allows for collaborative engineering across disciplines. For evaluating the temperature distribution, fluctuation of stresses, and deformation throughout the disc brake profile, ANSYS 19.2 is used in the thermal and structural analysis of the disc brake rotor. Based on the amount of Von Mises stresses, temperature distribution, and deformation, a comparison is done between three distinct materials used for solid type disc brakes, and the optimal material for constructing disc brakes and kind of disc brake are suggested.
