Abstract

The analytical model for the determination of transient temperature field and heat fluxes in friction elements of brakes (pad/disc) is presented. It is assumed that one friction element is composed of a multi-layer composite strip, and the second element is a homogeneous semi-space. The solution to a non-stationary thermal problem of friction is obtained for a tribosystem with heat generation on a surface of contact and convective heat exchange with an environment on outer surface of a strip. The influences of composite parameters, for example, reinforcement fraction in the cross-section of periodic cells and the ratio of the conductivities of matrix and fibers, on the maximal temperature are studied.
