Finite element solution of the three-dimensional system of equations of heat dynamics of friction and wear during single braking

A three-dimensional numerical model of a disk brake to study temperature on a discrete contact of rough surfaces has been developed. It includes the system of equations formulated based on thermotribological postulates of heat dynamics of friction and wear with mutual influence of contact pressure, velocity, properties of materials, and temperature. Two approaches of calculation of the flash temperature and its influence on the maximum temperature during a single braking application were studied. Changes in the contact temperature, sliding velocity, and the thermomechanical wear during braking were shown and discussed. It was found that two of the examined variants of calculation of the flash temperature agree well for the three considered materials of the brake pads combined with the cast iron disk, at each initial sliding velocity in the range from 5 to 20 m s−1.
