FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF THE TEMPERATURE FIELD OF AN EMERGENCY BRAKE AND STUDY OF ITS THERMAL PROPERTIES

摘要

For simulation of typical operating conditions of an emergency brake, analyze the theoretical heat energy of single emergency braking. The formula of the maximum temperature of a contact point was derived from the theory of friction heat conduction during braking. The finite element model of the disc brake temperature field was constructed with ANSYS/LS-DYNA software. The effect of brake safety factor and different thermal properties on the temperature field is analyzed, indicating that the temperature distribution of ductile iron brake friction pairs is superior to the steel brake ones. The results and analysis provide certain indications of the design and applicability of an emergency brake.
