Real-Time Monitoring for Vehicle Brake Temperature Rise in Continuous Long Downhill

摘要

A real-time monitoring method for brake temperature rise in continuous long downhill with constant velocity braking is proposed. Longitudinal equilibrium equation and energy balance equation are built, and the proportion of brake dissipation energy in total is analyzed. The influence of velocity on brake dissipation energy is studied, then, the calculation model for brake temperature rise is built with the empirical formula of the proportion of bake absorption energy in dissipation energy. Finally, the undetermined coefficient of the calculation model for brake temperature rise is determined with least square method based on test data. The studies show that temperature rise calculated by the built model is similar to the test data both in magnitude and variation trend.
